Great White Shark Feminized

Great White Shark is an aptly-named strain indeed, since it clearly has the ability to devour users in a single bite. With a top prize from the Bio category of the 1997 High Times Cannabis Cup, it's still going strong today, and looks set to become even more popular. Also known as 'White Shark' and 'Peacemaker' (the latter referring to its potent sedating effect) this multifaceted plant is fully deserving of its various monikers.

The king of the green sea is a three-way cross of prominent strains. Its humble yet potent 20% Sativa makeup is from Brazilian and South Indian landraces, and its immense 80% Indica content comes from Super Skunk. Don't think of this herb as simply an express ticket to dreamland, though. With a THC level of 15% to 21%, it provides a wonderful, almost-psychedelic journey as well.

As well as bringing lots of enjoyment in the effects department, Great White Shark is also great fun to grow. These feminized seeds from Homegrown Cannabis Co. allow you to cultivate your very own all-female crop – and where this plant is concerned, 'more' definitely means 'merrier'.

Growing Great White Shark Feminized Seeds

Great White Shark is a true enchantress. When the plant begins to bloom, it resembles a spectacular white snowy hilltop, thanks to the generous coating of trichomes that blankets its heavily concentrated buds.

The plant is lengthier than most other Indica strains, but still shorter than many Sativas. It won't need much space when grown indoors, and it works particularly well on a SOG setup with hydroponics. With proper feeding and light cycle management, it'll be ready for harvest after nine weeks of flowering. You can expect a bountiful yield of around 1.63 to 2.62 ounces per square foot.

This structurally-sound specimen prospers especially well outdoors, since its sturdy frame can withstand a certain degree of poor weather conditions. Like most cannabis strains, though, it will flourish best in a sunny location. If all goes well and no frost harms the crop, you'll be able to enjoy a colossal yield of about 35 ounces per plant by the first week of October.

Fragrance and Flavor

Great White Shark has a skunky, citrus-infused, earthy scent with just a hint of pineapple. Many users find its fragrance alluring and invigorating, but it may be too strong for newbies.

People who love pungent flavors will adore this strain. Similar to its aroma, it has a piquant taste of citrus with a dash of sweetness. The aftertaste is so strong that it lingers for ages on the palate – even after just one puff.

Effects

Highly sought after for its mean punch, Great White Shark is a one-hit-and-quit kind of cannabis. It goes without saying that the weed is not for the faint of heart or neophytes. Even seasoned smokers should only go for a single puff or two – and even that could be enough to knock them for six.

Awesome for an after work or lazy weekend session, this herb provides head to toe stress-relief. First to work their magic are the Sativa-THC duo that bring a euphoric, trance-like head high. Although powerful and long-lasting, it isn't too overwhelming, so you'll often find yourself lost in the joy of the moment, but with your feet still planted on terra firma.

Then the Indica influence will kick in with full force. The calming sensation starts in the head before spreading throughout the body, soothing every nerve and muscle until you're free of all physical stress and tension. True to its nickname 'Peacemaker', you'll certainly find inner peace after a toke or two of this delightful strain.

The uplifted mental state and relaxed body stone will last for a couple of hours, during which you may find yourself pondering the meaning of life itself. Some choose to meditate to bring an even higher degree of relaxation, while others may feel creative urges tugging at their sleeve.

Whatever your plans may be, don't even think of smoking this bud if there is work to be done or somewhere you need to be. It's highly sedating and is recommended for use only when you're at home or in a similarly safe place. Perfect for chore-free nights, it's a great one to enjoy from the comfort of your couch. Before long, you'll fall into a long, deep sleep, and you'll wake up the next day feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world.

Medical

Great White Shark is already quite popular in the medical cannabis field, and it's often prescribed to patients struggling with mental health concerns. Individuals battling anxiety, depression and PTSD have spoken highly of this strain's ability to boost mental wellbeing and provide a positive outlook.

The plant's Indica composition provides a calming effect that may help people with ADHD, stress and insomnia. It can soothe tired bodies and minds, and the session usually ends with the added bonus of a long, deep sleep.

It's also said to be useful in pain management, thanks to the blend of Indica's muscle relaxing effects and CBD's analgesic properties, and has been used by people suffering from migraines, arthritis and PMS.

Although loved by many, the strain's potency can be downside for some. Beginners and those with poor THC tolerance may experience dizziness, minor headaches, anxiety and even paranoia. Unfortunately, for those who can't handle a THC level of 10% or above, a permanent switch to a different strain is needed.

Dry eyes and cottonmouth are very common cannabis woes and can usually be avoided with proper hydration before, during and after a smoke out.
