Durban Poison is the South African landrace out of the port city of Durban, and its American chapter starts with Ed Rosenthal carrying seeds home in the 1970s. He passed them to Mel Frank, whose A-line selection work refined the strain, and Frank passed it on to Sam the Skunkman, who spread it through Amsterdam.
It brings vigor, a fast finish for a sativa, and heavy trichome production, and it sits underneath the entire Cookies complex.

Verified BuyerFire strain the Phenos that I grew, didn’t have a whole lot of lemon, but there was a killer cookie dough funk really gassy with a hint of lemon
Nothing not to like here. Indica-doms don't always sit well with me, but this OSG is relaxing without being debilitating. Excellent painkiller for my arthritis, smooth smoke, easy to grow with good yields. Nice fuely aroma, and resinous.
Third time growing this batch, just one plant this time. All seeds from pack germinated, no duds. DWC with 27-gallon reservoirs housing 2 plants each. Greenleaf Nutrients Mega Crop, kelp, Bud Explosion, and cal-mag, with poor measuring. Ph checked but I rarely adjust except for initial feeding of seedlings, generic lights based on Samung LM301 LEDs with Meanwell drivers. Tent with adequate ventilation.
Pretty easy grow, no hassles or surprises. This strain stretches quite a bit longer veg times are rewarded with beefy plants. May require external support. I'm not the most knowledgeable grower with the most dialed-in methods, but I have a clue. Pulled 6oz from this one plant. I did get some mold or whatever in the center of a big cola in the last grow, which is a first for me, but no problems this time. Wish I hadn't neglected and lost my clones from this grow, will grow again.
