White Russian Feminized

Rather than begin an article with cliché dude quotes from the popular film, The Big Lebowski, we’ll focus more on the strain of cannabis seeds known as White Russian Fem strain. Fair warning though, there may be the occasional reference to geographically named novelty cocktails. 

Beginning in the nineties White Russian was held in very high esteem and proclaimed the strongest strain in the world with a THC content averaging twenty two percent. It also won the best overall strain category at the beloved High Times Cannabis Cup in 1996. To this day it remains an insanely popular strain and for good reason. This very potent cross between White Widow and AK-47 was originally bred by Serious Seeds of Amsterdam so the genetics are top shelf. It has also won first place at the Bio Cup in 1996, second place in the 1997 High Times Cannabis Cup and second place again in the hash category of the Highlife Cup 2013. With lineage and awards like that it is nearly undeniable that White Russian is one of the world’s best.  

Growing White Russian Fem strain seeds is not only easy but it’s a kind of a treat. It’s simple for starters, as this strain doesn’t really require large amounts of carefully planned out fertilizers, making it an ideal learning strain for novice growers. It generally grows to a manageable height of five to six feet and grows a lot of branches. Cultivators of this strain will want to prune regularly so humidity levels remain low and air flow is maintained to the stalk, thereby avoiding mold and mildew. One thing to consider when growing White Russian at home is odor control in the form of carbon filters or air vents. The strain is well known for its skunky aromas that begin even before the flowering stage of the plant's life cycle.  

Flowering times of White Russian vary depending on where you grow it. Indoor cultivators are usually ready to harvest buds around the nine to ten week mark. Outdoor cultivators should plant in late May and expect to harvest in early to mid October. Get ready for a visual treat too, as the plant enters the flowering stage, the trichome development ramps up considerably and laces the sugar leaves and buds in shimmering white crystals. Very reminiscent of its parent White Widow, this strain is gorgeous as it flowers and will have you drooling with excitement as harvest grows nearer.  

Only growing to an average height of three to four feet when grown indoors, White Russian Fem needs bright light. A minimum 600 watt high discharge sodium lamp will give the plant the light she needs. Consider using a Screen of Green Method as well. Screen of green refers to filling your indoor space with as many plants as possible to achieve the largest possible yield. When entering the flowering stage, the large number of plants takes on the look of a green screen, hence the name. This is a preferable method for indoor cultivators to ensure they maximize their space and resulting crop. Flowering times for indoor growing range in the nine to ten week range with yields per plant as high as one pound. 

Outdoors is where White Russian really gets to stretch her legs and be the brilliant strain she is known to be. Under the natural sunlight, plants will reach average heights of five to six feet. Expect bushy limbs with a low leaf to bud ratio. This makes it an easy plant to keep trimmed and healthy. Planting in late May for a harvest in mid to late October is the norm and cultivators can expect yields potentially over a pound if the plant is well cared for. White Russian will also perform very well in a greenhouse. 

The high THC content of White Russian does make it an ideal strain for treating painful conditions like Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and other chronic pains. Headaches don’t stand a chance against it. The strain is also highly suited to easing symptoms of depression, anxiety, nausea and stress.  

Relatively minor adverse reactions have been reported for the strain which is remarkable for a high THC strain like White Russian. Novice smokers should measure their intake to avoid increased paranoia. More commonly, dry mouth, red eyes and sometimes dizziness have been reported.

Need a mental and physical boost? White Russian will do that. Known for its very uplifting, cerebral effect, it puts a smile on smokers faces and a spring in their step. Creative juices begin to flow almost immediately after smoking and gently fade away into a relaxing body buzz that doesn’t couch lock you. 

Skunky is the word that comes to mind when discussing the aroma of White Russian during its growing cycle. Potent enough to smell outdoor grows from a hundred feet away. When smoking the strain, aromas of sweet and sour citrus fill the air and hang pleasantly long after smoking. For true cannabis aficionados the smell is everything a marijuana plant should offer.

A strong earthy flavor is prevalent from the first toke of a joint. Complimented well with secondary flavors the likes of pine, citrus and spice. White Russian is one of the more pleasant tasting strains that is regularly smoked in the USA.

Often imitated but never duplicated, White Russian stands on its own well enough, however, the following strains pay a pretty good homage to the original. Take for example Bruce Banner x White Russian. Bruce Banner is a pretty potent strain in its own rights but when crossed with White Russian the effects are intense to say the least. Bringing on a highly introspective but euphoric mood and a strong sedative effect on the body this strain is best enjoyed in the early evening. Flavors and aromas of strawberries, sweet berries and diesel fuel make this a very memorable smoke.

Purple Kush x White Russian introduces a much stronger indica effect than White Russian. This strain is very sedative and will put you on the couch but won’t rob you of free thought. Matter of fact, this strain is quite cerebral and its mental stimulative effects are fantastic for treating anxiety, depression and chronic pain. Not to mention its ability to deliver a sound night’s sleep.

White Widow is fifty percent of the equation that created White Russian. This legendary strain is a blend of a Brazilian landrace sativa and a South Indian indica. It packs a long lasting body buzz with a creative, uplift to the mood that is perfect for philosophical conversations with good friends. A spicy, earthy scent and an herbal, earthy flavor has inspired a very loyal following of this strain. Named for its insane crystal production in the late stages of flowering that are reminiscent of a bridal veil. Extremely effective for treating depression, bi-polar disorder, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorders of varying degrees.

Next up, >White Rhino fem. Once again a Brazilian sativa and an Indian indica have combined but this time an Afghani indica came to the party. What a party it is too! A strong head in a vice like high grips smokers and simultaneously knocks any pain out of the body like a Rhinoceros ran it down. Sweet, sweet honey and lemon flavors tease the taste buds while aromas of skunky pine hit the olfactory senses leaving a lasting impression. Perfectly suited to grow well in the high altitudes like Colorado and northern climates like Washington State.

Rounding out our list is a new and improved version of White Russian marijuana seeds, White Russian Fast fem. Kidding around of course, perfection generally can’t be improved upon but it can be sped up. This is what White Russian Fast Fem does so well. Growing indoors, cultivators can have flowers in as little as six weeks and outdoor cultivators can harvest in early September. That’s some seriously impressive speed. The yields can be a little smaller but you can grow it faster so it’s kind of a push, however, this rendition does pack in all the effects and traits of the original making that speed of flowering a true bonus.

Plenty of nicknames have surfaced for the White Russian cocktail, however, the strain hasn’t garnered any monikers of note. With the popularity of the strain there must be one there somewhere, but we haven’t found it. Maybe it’ll be you to first utter an iconic nickname.
