[Noob thread] Is White Widow good bud?

Sorry for the uninteresting thread, but you guys are my most trusted source for this shit.
So I got a chance to buy white widow, the thing is it's $20 a gram which is kind of a stretch, at least where I live.
Anyone got any experience with said strain? Is it worth it?
Thanks

YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Man I haven't had White Widow in ages, I started out smoking that when I just got into smoking. It stoned me for damn near 8 hours (though I had NO tolerance and it was my first weed strain)
COP THAT SHIT ASAP
SMOKE THE SHIT OUT OF IT

Hm, I couldn't say, however this dealer's not known for ripping people off ... I could ask to look at them before I buy them, any distinct look/smell on them?

here's the deal
is the source trustworthy?
would they perhaps let you take a hit before you buy anything?
if the answers are, "fairly", and, "probably not"

I pay $20 for heads in my area. $20 for white widow isn't a stretch for me, that's a bargain.

it all comes down to the reliability of the source
hell, even if it's not actually, "white widow", it'd still be worth it for $20 if it's chron-deezy
though I like dealers that do 1.2 for $20
not every marijuana redistributor has good business sense, though

Here in Argentina, you get a ton, and I mean a ton of dirt weed, shitty ass brown blocks that look like people pissed on them. But if you know where to look, real bud is not that expensive. Usually 10-15 bucks a gram. For example a couple weeks ago I got silver haze for 15. 20 is a bit of a stretch, nothing huge but still.

It should have FUCKLOADS of crystals on it and smell amazing.
Just go for it, if the source is reliable and you can get the bud again it's worth checking out.

whitewidow usually has a fruity smell/taste when you smoke it (IME if it's real it tastes/smells like strawberries, one of the reasons its my top 5 strains)
tho $20 a gram is fucking stupid, at that point you're better off growing it yourself. everyone here must be rich because $20 a gram is fucking ridiculous regardless of what strain or how' ultrasuperduperhyperdank' the bud is
if you could get a 1/8 (3.5grams) for $40 it'd be worth it, maybe even $45

White Widow should be really fluffy and simultaneously extremely sticky, and COMPLETELY covered in crystals. The smell is heavenly as well.

if you buy bulk, the price evens out much more
while amazing headies cost $20 a gram, they also may cost 360 an oz sure, you only get down to 12 a g if you buy a bunch, it's not too goddamn ridiculous

I could get a zip of that for $300 MAX. Probably closer to $275

I live in the medical state, and $20 for a single gram of dank is standard. $15-25 is a normal range. $10 a gram is Canadian medical prices. 
Yes, some clubs are cheaper and do have $10 grams, as well as $30 eighths, but eighths vary so much that $75 is not an unusual price. Medical is still pretty expensive in general in the US, especially for the dankest shit (hash included!).
To the OP: buy it if it's coated in crystals, pretty much. That's the mark of White Widow but anything caked out isn't going to disappoint you, likely.

True, but they have a business to run. To the consumer there's also the benefit of legality, huge variety in strains (which could mean cheaper prices), and concentrates. Lots of hash, most clubs have 10+ varieties, then kief, edibles, etc. I also think most clubs are too expensive but $20/$60 is still the average price and your post seemed to imply that you would find Canadian medical prices if you move to a medical state and get into the game. 
If you search hard enough you can even find dispensaries with better prices, but it's not the average, and the quality is sometimes compromised in those collectives. I didn't mean to imply that I endorse the $20/$60 average...I wish it was cheaper. Canada has the prices right, and we are paying a bit too much...but it's not so bad.

it's not just canada. Washington & places in cali have super chronic bud for dirt cheap compared to other places. the reason is medical patients can grow their own plants legally, so that bud ends up on the streets as well as in the dispensaries. street prices are way lower than dispensary prices.
they COULD sell it for cheaper but since they are a monopoly on the legal weed market they can sell it for however much they want

Very first time I got baked, we bought a dime bag of white widow for all of us. it was soooo crystally and white, haven't come across bud like that in a while.
We put it in a pipe and hacked our lungs out (it was the first time for us all) laughed our asses off and lost total track of time, and although I hardly remember it, it was a goooood time

20/g is kind of a rip imo. Unless it's crazy quality from the dispensary or some shit.
Off the street I get 4-6g for $40. And that's good quality high-mids to high grade.
Shit last time I picked up I got 6.3g for $40. And it was some pretty good shit. Def not premium high grade tho.

Widow is kill, but not at the top of my list. I still like my old Northern Lights, OG, bubble, and White Shark even tastes a little better to me. It's got to do with phenotype and growing conditions also. Yea it's all kill though if it's high grade. Name never matters because I have saw shade grown fluffy widow that I grew that tasted like killer after 60 day cure that I let go for regular bud price. Shit to my hommies I used to let'em get the real kill for 5 a g. I only do it to help I prefer smoking all my good bud. Peace and happy tokin. Dammit it happened again. I had to edit dammit this is an old thread. I guess I got fooled too. (lol) Peace & I'll smoke a bowl to that.

When I was real young I used to get so high I'd be tripping on white widow. Back in 06-08 I had some amazing variants of it.
Now that I need pain relief I have to buy indica

White widow was the last medicinal strain I was able to buy when I left CA years ago, and it was lovely. It's not super flavorful compared to other strains, but is a good solid all around bud.
Just be careful though, many people use the names white widow, norther lights, and skunk, when the herb they're selling is not that at all, but seems like to me I have heard those three names thrown around a lot, often times when someone is trying to sell some decent beasters of unknown genetics.
I think high times magazine had a lot to do with those names being used a lot, because those three strains were used in breeding many other strains when cannabis was really getting big, so you hear those names misused a lot.
But yeah, I say go for it.
