What Is Albino Cannabis?
Duncan Mathers
5 min read

If you’re a regular scroller of weed content on social media, chances are you’ve come across albino cannabis plants. These rare and spectacular-looking white cannabis plants draw gasps of awe and curiosity in equal measure. But what is albino cannabis? What causes it, and can you grow your own? We have the answers you seek.

Can Albino Cannabis be Grown Intentionally?
This is where it gets contentious. While albinism is a recessive genetic trait, some wonder if plant tampering can help you to engineer cannabis plants that are genuinely albino. After all, these plants are rare and, in some cases, sought-after due to their unique physical appearance.

It’s arguably possible that you can breed albino cannabis. After all, the hybridisation process can certainly eliminate or strengthen particular traits. To that end, an advanced breeder could effectively cultivate a cannabis strain that contains the genetic mutation that expresses albino traits.


But rather than ask, “can you?” the more pressing question is perhaps, “why would you want to?” Other than the visuals of the plant and making for some attention-grabbing photos, albino cannabis offers little benefit. Failing to reach maturity means more than white weed. It also means lower flower production, and few cultivators want that. Then there’s the potency issue that goes along with it.

The likely-shortened lifecycle and accompanying issues include a reduced ability to produce adequate levels of cannabinoids such as THC. This will likely render an albino cannabis plant a dud for most growers.






I would still smoke it.

Hippo swallows boy, 2, whole as he played in lake - before spitting him back out alive

A hippo has swallowed a playing two-year-old boy whole - before spitting him back out alive.

Paul Iga was outside his home just feet away from Lake Edward, Uganda, when the creature attacked.

It seized the youngster in its jaws in the horrific incident and began to swallow him.

Chrispas Bagonza, who was horrified by the attack, spotted the boy and began throwing stones at the animal to try and get it to stop.

Knew a dude that worked a gold mine in the interior of AK.
He drove a dozer in the middle of winter pulling a 1000 gal diesel tank on skids to the mine (like 35 miles across muskeg in the wilderness) - it was really cold, like neg 50 F.
Dozer quit because of the cold & he knew he was done. Woke up to snow on his face & that's when he knew he'd make it.
Tough bastards that live up there in the winters - not me anymore though.
