white widow is often quoted as being the classic modern strain; it is certainly very popular within the marijuana community at large and has won a whole host of awards. This strain contains very high levels of THC and exceptionally low levels of CBD’s and CBN’s. If you take another look at our guide to choosing marijuana strains you will see that CBD’s and CBN’s have an enormous part to play in the relief of some medical conditions. THC is the weed component that gets you high.
Growing white widow is moderately easy.
Despite these low levels of medically-active substances, however, White Widow has been reported as helping:
- Pain
- Depression
- Anxiety (although I would have thought the ‘buzzy’ feeling might be something to avoid)
- Reduced appetite
- Cachexia
- Hepatitis C
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
