Bettie White strain guide
Bettie White is an indica-leaning hybrid of White Widow and Blueberry. People know it for a sweet berry, pine and sour citrus smell, and for a giggly start that settles into a heavy, relaxed finish.
Where does Bettie White come from?
Listings agree it's a cross of White Widow and Blueberry, and put it at roughly 60% indica. No breeder is named, and its history beyond that is not well documented.
You'll also see it spelled Betty White. Be aware there's a separate strain sold as Betty White by a different breeder with unrelated parents, so the spelling on the label doesn't always tell you which plant you're getting.
What does Bettie White smell and taste like?
Sweet, fruity blueberry comes first, followed by sour, lemony citrus and woody pine. Some people pick up a sharper, almost cleaner-like note, and one listing mentions spicy cherry.
We couldn't find published terpene results for Bettie White, so we're not listing any. The taste is usually described the same way as the smell: sweet berry up front, with citrus and pine on the finish.
Bettie White effects: what people report
People describe a fast start: a buzzy, happy mood lift that often comes with smiling and giggling. As it settles, the feel moves into the body and gets heavier, and many say it ends sleepy.
These are experiences people report, not promises, and there are fewer reports for Bettie White than for better-known strains. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. The listings we found don't mention side effects, which says more about how few reports there are than about the strain.
How strong is Bettie White?
Listings put Bettie White at about 23% to 25% THC, which is on the high side, with very little CBD. Those numbers come from a small number of listings, so your batch may test differently.
If you're new to it, start with a small amount and give it time. The THC and CBD numbers on your label matter more than the strain average, and our guide to reading cannabis labels walks through them.
Buying Bettie White in Canada
Check the spelling and, if you can, the parents listed by the producer. Bettie White and Betty White may be the same plant or two different ones depending on who grew it.
Look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date on the label, since fresher flower keeps more of the berry smell.
Bettie White vs Blue Widow
Blue Widow comes from the same pairing of Blueberry and White Widow, so the two share a sweet blueberry and pine smell. The big difference is strength: Blue Widow is usually listed in the teens for THC, while Bettie White is listed in the mid 20s. People call Blue Widow milder, relaxed and happy, while Bettie White reports lean toward a giggly start and a heavier, sleepier finish. If you want something gentle, start with Blue Widow. If you have more experience and want a stronger take, try Bettie White.
