Editorial profile
Auto Widow in detail
Origin & classification
Auto Widow holds a special position in the CBD Seeds range: The source describes it as the seed bank's first autoflowering strain. According to the source, the starting point was two selected Automatic plants whose light-independent flowering trait was stabilized. CBD Seeds then introduced its own Widow line to achieve the desired aroma and flavor profile as well as heavy, fragrant flowers.
Aroma & flavor
Genetically, the source describes the strain as 75 percent White Widow and 25 percent Ruderalis. This is considerably more precise than the abbreviated database entry “Widow”. The classification as a Hybrid and Automatic is consistent with this description. No specific breeder other than CBD Seeds or additional parent lines are mentioned, which is why the origin should not be embellished beyond this information.
Terpene profile
The aroma is dominated by sweet, woody and pine-like notes. The source additionally mentions licorice, which is not yet included in the structured aroma fields. No terpene profile is provided. Statements about which compounds cause individual aroma notes would therefore be speculative. The effects are described briefly and clearly as powerful or heavy; the English source text also uses the historical term “narcotic”. A more nuanced division into uplifting, creative or calming phases cannot be derived from the dataset.
Effect tendency
For indoor cultivation, CBD Seeds describes an ordinarily strongly branched plant with a central main stem approximately 25 to 40 centimeters long, said to be densely covered with crystals. Such details come from the breeder-specific description of this version and should not be understood as a guaranteed characteristic of every plant. A production of “45/25 g” is also stated; because the reference quantity and notation are unclear, this value is not suitable as a reliable yield figure.
Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
The database lists ten to eleven weeks, but the underlying source does not clearly explain whether this refers to the flowering phase alone or the complete life cycle from germination. With an Automatic, this distinction is important. Until it is clarified, the duration should be treated only as an unspecified time period.
Further classification
Auto Widow therefore has a comparatively clearly defined basic profile: an early Automatic development from CBD Seeds, White Widow and Ruderalis heritage, sweet-woody aromas with pine and licorice, and effects described as powerful and heavy.
