A pure white plant is an impossibility! It has no chlorophyll and cannot produce sugars (food) for the plant. However, a bud mutation (a change affecting a branch, rather than the whole plant) could produce a pure white bud on a varigated(white and green) branch. The rest of the plant, being normally colored, could provide enough food for the branch to survive. That is the ONLY way, short of giving an albino plant constant transfusions of normal sap (nearly impossible), to get a pure white bud. As to the strain- your guess is as good as mine!

It was probably so covered in trichomes that it looked white.
Possibly if it was cured long enough some of the chlorophyll broke down, too.
I've seen some pale nugs before, but not white white.
