EffectsUplifted, Energized, Euphoric, Focused

Durban Poison is one of those rare heirloom variety strains.

Despite having been tampered with over the years, the original version of Durban Poison is still available and extremely popular. Surprisingly enough, this popular strain is actually quite simple to grow.

The strain is great for beginners, as it can withstand most climates but does best in warm and sunny environments.

Most growers prefer to grow the strain indoors because of its massive height.

Considering the climate in New England, Durban Poison will grow really well, but it’s preferable to grow indoors.

This isn’t because of an issue with the climate rather the size of the plant.

However, going overboard with nutrient addition and such can mess up the genetics of the plant.
