The 90s strain that conquered the world

Few strains have travelled as far as this one. White Widow, the 90s classic, went from its European origins to becoming one of the most recognised strains on the planet, winning over growers and judges alike along the way. The video above tells the story of that rise and the genetics behind it.

World fame is a responsibility

When a strain becomes a household name, copies of the name appear faster than copies of the plant. That is the quiet risk in any conquest story: the world can end up knowing the name far better than the genetics behind it.

Keeping the two together is the work CloneBuzzz Genetics does every day. Verified living clones carry a strain's genuine character intact from grower to grower, so that a world-famous line stays the plant it became famous for. Fame fades; living genetics either last or they do not, and that choice sits with the growers who keep them.
