Durban Poison
Durban Poison is not a terpene but a landrace cannabis strain originating from the Durban region of South Africa. It is commonly associated with a bright, citrusy, and slightly spicy aromatic profile, often attributed to a limonene-dominant terpene expression alongside pinene and myrcene. Lineage records frequently report this strain as a pure sativa with a relatively short flowering time for its type. Durban Poison has become a foundational genetics in many breeding programs, particularly for breeders seeking to combine upland sativa characteristics with faster maturation. Its genetic stability and consistent aromatic markers have made it valuable in controlled breeding environments.
