Double White in detail

Origin & classification

Double White is a registered strain from Sweet Seeds and carries the designation SWS17 there. According to the breeder, it was created from White Widow and Great White Shark, two elite clones selected around the year 2000. The breeding objective was to combine the traits of two well-known representatives of the White family in a single line. The source situation is conclusive here: lineage, supplier and the most important plant characteristics come from a cohesive manufacturer description.

Aroma & flavour

The plant is characterised as vigorous and stable. Short internodes and a resilient structure are intended to make it easier to control growth. During flowering, individual flower clusters can merge into long, continuous colas. Sweet Seeds also highlights high flower and crystal production. These details refer to the breeder’s own version of the strain and cannot automatically be applied to material with the same name from other suppliers.

Terpene profile

Sweet-sour tones meet fresh and floral nuances in the aroma. The structured “sweet” field therefore reflects only part of the more detailed aroma profile. The scent is described as strong and pleasant. Specific terpenes are not provided, so the floral and fresh impressions should not be attributed to individual compounds. The source text also does not specify a more precise fruit note.

Effect tendency

Sweet Seeds describes the effects as strong and typical of an indica-sativa hybrid. A more detailed breakdown of physical or mental aspects is not provided. The stated genetic ratio is 60 percent Indica to 40 percent Sativa. As no reliable THC or CBD values are available, potency should not be explained using supposedly exact cannabinoid figures. The breeder’s wording remains a qualitative classification and does not guarantee an identical individual experience.

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance

For indoor cultivation, nine weeks of flowering and a yield potential of 450 to 600 grams per square metre are stated. Outdoors, the breeder’s reference range is 350 to 600 grams per plant, with mid-October given as the harvest window. Location, climate, phenotype and cultivation practices have a significant impact on these figures. A second-place finish in the outdoor category of the sixth Coppa dell’Italia Cannabica in 2013 is also documented. Double White therefore combines traceable White genetics with a robust structure, high crystal formation and a sweet-sour, fresh floral scent.
