Durban Poison Cannabis Seeds Feminized
Durban Poison is a feminized, pure South African Sativa landrace. It tests at approximately 23% THC with a subtle 0.24% CBD, flowers in 9–10 weeks, stays compact indoors (0–4 ft), and yields around 550 g/m² indoors or up to ~350 g per plant outdoors, typically reaching maturity by October. As a true landrace, it carries the natural resilience and adaptability of its wild origins, producing reported effects that are energetic, creative, and uplifting with a gentle relaxing undertone.
Genetics: A Pure South African Landrace
Durban Poison's genetic roots lie in ancient South African landraces, celebrated for their robust, pure Sativa traits. This heritage produces a high that's energetic, euphoric, and highly focused, along with the natural resilience typical of unhybridized landrace genetics. It has also shaped modern breeding as a parent of Girl Scout Cookies.

Growing Durban Poison in Canada
With an October finish, Durban Poison is tight for outdoor growers in much of Canada, where first frosts can arrive in late September or early October. Starting indoors in spring and finishing under a greenhouse or cover gives the most reliable results; in colder regions, grow it indoors or choose one of our faster-finishing autoflower seeds. Home cultivation rules differ by province — most allow up to four plants per household, while Quebec and Manitoba do not permit home growing. See our guide to buying cannabis seeds in Canada.
Harvesting
Monitor trichomes closely — harvest when most are cloudy with a few amber for a balanced, potent effect. A slow dry and a proper cure help preserve the sweet, spicy aroma; see drying vs. curing marijuana.
