White Walker strain guide
White Walker, also sold as White Walker Kush, is a cross of White Widow and Skywalker. People describe a citrus and pine smell and a feel that starts uplifted and settles into a heavy body feel.
Where does White Walker come from?
One strain database, another database and a grow-journal site all give the same parents: the Ingmar cut of White Widow as the mother and Skywalker as the father. DNA Genetics is the breeder most often named, though not every listing says so.
Don't mix it up with Walker Kush, a different strain with other parents, or with Whitewalker OG, which is also a separate strain.
What does White Walker smell and taste like?
Listings describe citrus, herbs and pine, with sage, earthy and woody notes and a sweet finish.
We couldn't find a published terpene breakdown for White Walker, so we're not naming any. If your product's label lists terpenes, that tells you more than the strain name.
White Walker effects: what people report
People describe an upbeat, euphoric start, often with happy, chatty energy, that gives way to a heavy, relaxed body feel. Skywalker is usually credited for the heavier part.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. Hunger is a common mention.
How strong is White Walker?
One strain database and a grow-journal site both list about 22% THC, with very little CBD. That's a high-THC strain, so start small. Batch results vary, and the label on your product matters more than the listing. Our guide to reading cannabis labels shows what to look for.
Buying White Walker in Canada
It may be listed as White Walker or White Walker Kush. Producers grow different cuts, so batches can vary.
Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date on the label, since fresher flower keeps more of its smell.
White Walker vs White Widow
White Widow is White Walker's mother, and it shows in the frosty look and balanced, buzzy start. White Widow is the older, better-known strain with a classic earthy, woody smell. White Walker adds Skywalker's heavier, kush-style finish and brighter citrus. If you want the classic, start with White Widow. If you'd like a heavier landing, try White Walker.
