Durban Poison

Description

Unlike many modern hybrids, Durban Poison is a landrace strain, meaning it evolved naturally in its native environment. Discovered and stabilized by Dutch breeders in the 1970s, it has been adapted to modern cultivation while retaining its pure sativa character.

Seed Characteristics

Durban Poison seeds are highly prized because they produce plants:

100% sativa, with slender and vigorous growth.

Adapted to temperate and sunny climates, but also capable of thriving indoors with good space management.

With a fairly short flowering cycle for a sativa (8 to 10 weeks).

Highly productive, with long branches covered in dense, resinous flowers.

Perfect for extractions, thanks to abundant, sticky resin.

Aromas and Flavors

The terpene profile of Durban Poison is distinctive and instantly recognizable:

Spicy and earthy aromas, inherited from its African origins.

Notes of anise, licorice, and pine, which give it a fresh and complex flavor.

A smooth yet powerful smoke, lingering on the palate.

Effects

With THC levels of up to 20%, Durban Poison is a potent sativa with typical effects:

Intense cerebral stimulation, ideal for concentration, creativity, and motivation.

A euphoric and energizing sensation, perfect for daytime use.

Little sedative effects, which clearly differentiates it from indica strains.

This is a strain highly valued by artists, students, or anyone seeking a mental boost without a physical heaviness.
