If you're wondering where this strain got her lethal name from, you're not alone. The Black Widow strain was bred by combining two legendary strains—a South Indian indica and a Brazilian sativa. The result is a hybrid that is both powerful and seductive.

While Black Widow may not have a laundry list of awards like some other strains, she is highly respected in the cannabis community. Her impressive genetics and potent effects have made her a popular choice among growers and consumers.Growing Black Widow can be a highly rewarding experience—but it’s not for novices. Indeed, she can be a bit of a diva when it comes to growing conditions.

Black Widow prefers slightly acidic soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.5. It's also important to make sure she has plenty of room to stretch out, as she can grow quite tall.This strain can be grown both indoors and out, though she thrives in warm, dry climates. Note that she is highly susceptible to mould and mildew, so it's important to keep a close eye on humidity levels.In terms of feeding requirements, Black Widow is relatively low-maintenance. Like most strains, she requires a steady supply of nitrogen during the vegetative stage to support her rapid growth. As she enters the flowering stage, growers are advised to switch to a feed high in phosphorus and potassium to support bud development.
