Durban Poison - Anyone had it? How good is it really?

[ATrueBlackThu]

I bought three seeds just because I've never smoked pure sativa before and I was curious, plus it was a good price (3 for $30). But last week I searched google to find out what the best tasting bud was and Durban Poison was ranked #1 so I'm pretty excited to try it. Anyone grow it or smoke it before?

We have it in flower right now! She's pretty tall!

Nice! You gotta let me know how she tastes. Got any pics I can see? How tall is she?

 

[Canna Montana]

These pics are from a couple days ago. We have a breeding project going and I have pollen on me, or I'd go take some pics now. I'll try to get to it later after I shower.

Also, she's probably 3' tall from the floor.

No need for newer pics just curious how she looks. She looks real good tho. Im guessing your trimmed her down quite a bit to keep around 3 feet? I figured with how tall sativas can get i might have to do 12 12 seed to keep it really short. Or just learn how and when to trim properly

She's an auto, so she went into flower about 4 weeks from seed. The ruderalis that she has in her will help keep her short. If we had grown her outside, she would probably have been taller. You can always do some Low Stress Training, or LST, to keep her short. I'll post a pic of how I'm doing it with another auto. I just use coated wire to hold the branches down. Then the plant can grow with an even canopy.

If you look closely, you can see the green wires spreading the branches away from the middle.

Im using the same wire for lst on my Kandy Kush grow right now. Something I should started a lot earlier than I did but that's ok, just another skill I gotta work on. And yea yours being an auto makes sense why its only 3 feet, mine isn't an auto so I will have to top and lst mine quite a bit or like i said do 12/12 seed.

What exactly is your wire hooked to though? It looks like it just goes straight into the dirt

It's about 3" into the soil. It holds the plant down, but allows for some movement.
Topping and LST will be the way to go. We have a Super Silver Haze and she is out of control. Lol!

Ah man that was my first grow but I screwed up and she died so I never got to try her out :'(

Well shining silver haze was anyway.

Ill give that a try next, seems a LOT simpler and far less wire in the way. Thanks for the tip

Once they get bigger, we have to tie a string around the pot about halfway up. Make sure to tie it tight, that's the anchor point. Then we tie strings to the branches and then tie them to the anchor point to assist in the LST. They eventually get too strong for the wires.

You should stop by our journal. We are doing fluxing, LST, Supercropping, we have a scrog, and roughly 20 plants from seedlings to drying in the tent. Lol. I'll go get the link and post it for you.

There ya go. We don't expect you to read it all, but there are some good pics and how-to's in there. Have a great day bud!

Another good tip I never read about, thanks again. Ill check out the journal for sure
