THC levels are low in this pleasant strain, roughly 13% in some tests. So while it's not perfect for heavy users, Purple Widow can be a great choice for patients who haven't smoked marijuana before. CBD levels, however, are typically very low, less than 1%, meaning this isn't a good strain for patients looking to treat seizure disorders. But it is good at treating several other conditions, including anxiety, depression, lack of appetite, and migraine headaches. This strain is a descendant of Purple Power and the legendary White Widow. An indica-dominant hybrid, it has a sativa/indica ratio of 45:55 and delivers a calming, relaxing body buzz that, while not terribly strong, is enjoyable and effective. Purple Widow has a sweet, fruity aroma and flavor, with specific hints of berry.
