'98 Aloha White Widow
Also known as: Da Widz, Puna Death Widow, Sweet Thang, 1998 Aloha White Widow
Overview
The '98 Aloha White Widow is an exceptional phenotype of White Widow that originated on Hawaii's Big Island in 1998. The strain comes from Hawaii and originates from the White Gold phenotype, first developed in 1998 when a traveling cannabis enthusiast from Canada produced some seeds to barter with locals, leading to the creation of the hybrid. This especially potent cut of White Widow has grown in renown alongside Hawaiian legends like Maui Wowie and Kona Gold and is a clone only strain originating from one amazing White Widow cut on the Big Island of Hawai'i. The strain represents a significant improvement over traditional Hawaiian strains due to its shorter flowering time and exceptional potency.
Physically, the strain is recognizable by its distinctive green trichome-coated dark foliage with dark olive green nugs with deep amber hairs and a super thick coating of bright frosty white crystal trichomes. This sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa, 30% indica) brings on the classic White Widow appearance with a "one-hitter high" experience. The plants tend to be 3 feet or shorter even when grown outdoors with bright green buds having orange pistils forming at the crown, and crystal trichomes littering the surface area. Along with other strains such as Kona Gold and Maui Wowie, 98 Aloha White Widow has legendary status in Hawaii and is notable for its unique, earthy flavor and room-filling odor.

Growing Information
98 Aloha White Widow grows well indoors and outdoors as long as it is handled by experienced cultivators, requiring a sunny, warm, and humid climate to thrive, performing slightly better outdoors. The strain needs moderate humidity and doesn't need much special care or as much water as most cannabis plants, with shorter flowering time compared to other Hawaiian strains, vegetating for about eight weeks with 18-24 hours of light. Plants need a flowering time of approximately 64 days and are available as feminized seeds. This strain has one of the fastest flowering times at 50-60 days before harvest. The strain maintains a manageable stature not exceeding 1 meter, making it suitable for controlled indoor cultivation, with growers able to influence size by adjusting light exposure and requiring less care and water compared to many other cannabis plants. Expected yields are substantial with proper cultivation in warm, humid conditions.
