White Widow x California Snow Autoflower

For decades, White Widow has been a staple in the Dutch scene. Indeed, its ability to raise the energy level of users as well as inspire creativity and deeply profound thoughts have made if widely popular in the infamous coffee shops. Even after three decades, not only has it maintained its lofty reputation, but it has also increased its standing among the community of enthusiasts.

White Widow, though, can be quite devastating as well. Used in moderation, it brings on an upbeat mood followed by a sense of contentment. However, in excess, the full-bodied high can lock one on the couch.

One way to maintain the exceptional mentally stimulating high without the potentially sedating body effects is to cross it with a slightly Sativa-dominant hybrid. A perfect match, in this instance, is California Snow. Aptly named for its snowflake-like resins, it is itself no slouch when it comes to potency. However, it did serve its purpose. And, even better, the auto version resulted in a cross that carries similar growing traits.

White Widow x California Snow autoflower seeds from Homegrown Cannabis is not only a fast grower. It also retains rich flavors and high potency as it would if it were regular seeds. It may not produce high enough yields when cultivated outdoors as opposed to indoors but having the option if planting it virtually any time of the year more than makes up.

Growing White Widow x California Snow from Autoflower Seeds

Cultivating the White Widow x California Snow is a pleasure to start with as it is sturdy and resilient. For sure, its thick branches can carry large colas and, not to mention, a sight to behold. Although it is best to cultivate it in warm areas, its California Snow heritage ensures that it could reasonably withstand severe disruptions in weather as well as tolerate colder temperate.

This cross is not a tall plant at all. Indoors, it averages around 80cm if growers top it early. Regardless if one uses soil or hydro, adapting it with the SOG or SCROG set up helps to enhance its yield. From start to harvest time, it takes about 9 to 10 weeks before the plant is ready for harvest. Under 600w of light, it could produce up to 300 grams per square meter.

For growers who live in the northern hemisphere, White Widow x California Snow grows outdoors from Late March to Late October. As a general rule, the last harvest of the year should not fall at a time when frost has set in as that is too harsh for any plant to survive. Unlike an indoor setting where one could optimize environmental conditions to help the plant achieve its full potential, the same is not the case here. Its quick growth rate results in a yield of some 50 to 100 grams. And, as alluded to, cultivators could start clones before the mother plant even reaches maturity. In this way, the continues cycles of different batches more than compensate over a spread of one season.

Fragrance and Flavor
