White Widow at Greenleaf Wellness - Sparks, NV
White Widow is one of the most-recognized hybrid cannabis cultivars in the world - a Brazilian sativa × South Indian indica cross stabilized in the Netherlands by the breeder Shantibaba (then with Green House Seeds, later Mr. Nice Seeds) in 1994. It earned its name from the dense white trichome coat that makes flowers look frosted. We rotate White Widow at Greenleaf Wellness in Sparks, NV when a Nevada-licensed cultivator is running it; check the shop page and flower hub for current availability.

Lineage and history
The original White Widow was a Brazilian-sativa × South-Indian-indica cross - a classic 1990s "exotic landrace × landrace" combination that defined the Dutch coffeeshop golden era. Shantibaba developed and stabilized it at Green House Seeds, Amsterdam, releasing it in 1994. It won the High Times Cannabis Cup the following year and spawned thousands of phenotype hunts in the late 1990s. Most modern White Widow seedlines descend from Mr. Nice Seeds (Shantibaba's later venture) or from Green House's continued line.

Effect arc
Onset 5 minutes from inhalation. Quick-lift mental clarity and creative-energy in the first 15 minutes; mid-arc 30–60 minutes is body-relaxed but engaged - the classic "balanced hybrid" effect; tail 90–120 minutes is mellow without crash. A textbook "any time of day" hybrid.
