Meet Durban Poison, the legendary South African sativa built for bright days and bold ideas. Expect an energetic, euphoric experience, a vivid earthy-pine aroma, and a remarkably quick finish for a sativa-dominant variety.

Its heritage traces to Durban, South Africa, where this celebrated landrace became known for vigorous growth and a shorter flowering window. Our breeders pair Durban genetics with an unknown indica, preserving its classic character in a 90% sativa, 10% indica profile.

Open the jar to sharp pine and rich earth, followed by a distinctive sweet finish. The aroma carries a fresh, resinous edge that makes Durban Poison instantly recognizable.

With THC levels listed at 15% to 25%, Durban Poison brings a lively, clear-headed high. Growers prize its creative, energetic, euphoric character for daytime sessions, social moments, and creative projects. Effects vary by person.

Six terpenes shape its layered profile. Alpha-pinene and terpinolene bring crisp pine and herbal brightness, while caryophyllene adds peppery warmth. Humulene deepens the earthy notes; myrcene and linalool round out the aroma with soft, grounding depth.

These feminized seeds are selected for dependable, female plants and classic Durban Poison traits. They suit growers at every experience level, including beginners. Grassfarmer backs every order with a germination guarantee.

Early growth brings the vigor of a tall, sativa-leaning plant. Plan for vertical space from the start, and consider ScrOG training to guide the branches and create an even canopy. Warm conditions help this tropical variety thrive.

Indoors, maintain good airflow and manage humidity as flowering progresses. Outdoors, choose a sunny, warm location and use well-draining soil. Plants can reach about 6.56 feet, or 2 meters, so give them room to stretch.

Flowering takes just 8 to 10 weeks, a fast finish for a sativa-dominant variety. Outdoor harvest typically arrives in October. Expect high yields, with indoor production listed at 450 to 500 g/m² and outdoor yields around 600 g per plant.

Grassfarmer offers premium genetics in small and bulk quantities at some of the lowest prices online, with fast, discreet shipping and guaranteed delivery across the USA, Canada, the European Union, and the U.K. Choose Durban Poison seeds and bring a classic, high-energy harvest within reach.
