It is sometimes reminiscent of sour and sweet candy, such as sour bears. A berry aroma and flavour may predominate.

Durban Dew is a robust fast growing Sativa dominant hybrid with a relatively fast flowering time and strong branches capable of delivering heavy harvests

Durban Dew is extremely suitable for outdoor and greenhouse cultivation, but she can also be grown indoors. It is a robust cannabis plant that can take a beating. This is a fast-growing Sativa dominant variety that develops many strong side branches and is capable of producing heavy yields.

If you grow her the natural way, she can get a beautiful Christmas tree structure. This is of course ideal for outdoor cultivation; all branches and buds catch sufficient (sun) light in this way. With sufficient pre-growth, she can easily reach a height of between 2.5-4 m.

For an indoor grow, her vigorous growth pattern and narrow leaves make her ideal for growing in both a SOG and SCROG. For a Sativa, this strain will flower quickly and will be ready for harvest after an average flowering time of around 8-9 weeks. By the end of flowering, the buds are completely covered with trichomes.

She has a high THC level and a powerful high. A small percentage of plants can contain colour. These are mainly pink and purple shades. The leaves can become completely dark, with beautiful purple hues. Cold night temperatures can even turn the leaves black. This applies to both the fan leaves and the sugar leaves.

In relative terms, she can withstand bad weather conditions fairly well. A little rain and cold don't damage her much. Of course, extended periods of bad weather can also cause problems, but in general this is a very robust and tough cannabis strain.

We classify her as a true open ground variety. She is suitable for growing in temperate climates near the sea, but also does well in more rural climates. In addition, she feels at home in the hills and mountains that are usually slightly colder.

Can also be used for guerrilla breeding. The buds of Durban Dew are colourful and resinous. When grown indoors in a controlled environment, she will show less colour but will produce incredibly full and compact buds. Outdoors, the buds also become relatively compact, but there is still enough space between the flowers to deter mould.

The internode distance is medium to large. The buds are large and firm with a favourable flower-to-leaf ratio. She is easy to manicure. This is a beautiful Sativa dominant lady that will blow your mind!

Effects of Durban Dew

Durban Dew is the ideal strain for lovers of an active and clear Sativa up-high. This THC-rich photoperiod cannabis strain has an energetic and uplifting high. It activates the brain and provides a strong head-high. This is an ideal strain for those who like a Sativa effect without paranoia. But be aware that smoking a high dose can also lead to strong narcotic and sedative effects.

The clear yet potent mental high is what positively surprised our test team. The initial effect is uplifting, clear, social and creative. Despite getting stoned, you are able to remain very active. The high is euphoric and long lasting. This is the perfect strain for a party or concert. This is definitely not a couch lock strain. The soft, sweet-sour fruity taste lets you enjoy yourself and this combination of terpenes with the cannabinoids provides a pleasant high that makes you float wonderfully.

Growing Durban Dew

Durban Dew delivers large XL yields in a wide variety of conditions, making her the perfect choice for the discerning outdoor grower. Her stable and resistant parent genetics also make her a good choice for the novice grower. She has an average flowering time of between 8 and 9 weeks. This applies from the moment that indoors are set to 12/12.

Outside in the northern hemisphere, our Durban Dew will be ready around September or October depending on the latitude you live at. She flowers relatively quickly once the days get shorter. Outdoors, the average plant will grow to around 2-3 meters in height. But with a little pre-growth, she can grow even taller than 4 meters. This is a plant of epic proportions. Its slender, thin leaves allow light to pass through from top to bottom for even higher yields.

Durban Dew Yields

Durban Dew is a photoperiod cannabis strain supplied as feminised seeds; she can reward anyone with a hefty yield. Her plant and bloom structure provide sturdy, large flowers that can support quite a bit of weight. By growing her in a SCROG or expanding her width by topping/fimming you will get a bushy plant that will produce a lot of flowers. The average yield in an indoor grow will be between 450-550 g/m2.

Truly epic yields can be achieved outdoors and in greenhouses. Plants with a yield of around 500-1000g are the rule rather than the exception. For experienced growers, this is a record-breaking strain! It can be grown in pots as well as in the ground. Keep in mind that she prefers a large aerated container rather than a small plastic pot. And to achieve the best, tastiest results, we recommend growing her completely organically.

Durban Dew Feminised Cannabis Seeds Summary

Durban Dew is a strong all-rounder. Actually, nothing is too crazy for her. Grow her preferably outdoors in the ground, in a pot, in a greenhouse or as a guerrilla plant in the forest. It is a strain that responds well to bending, snapping and supercropping. If you want to increase her yield, these techniques are recommended to get even thicker branches and flowers. If you want to limit her height somewhat, it is recommended to top or FIM this lady.

This makes her grow even wider/bushier. With a long vegetative phase, this process can be repeated several times. Towards the end of flowering for outdoor cultivation, we always recommend checking her for bud rot and mould. Although she is relatively resistant, she can still be susceptible to a number of small spots due to long periods of bad weather. If you are there in time, this will never cause a serious problem. Therefore, remove dead leaves in time and provide a shelter if necessary. It is therefore advisable to check the plants as harvest approaches.

Everything you need to know about terpenes

Terpenes are the natural, oily and aromatic compounds produced by the cannabis plant, and many other types of plant. The terpene compounds are responsible for the rich aromatic smells produced by cannabis. Many people feel terpenes are a powerful modulator, or influencer, of the cannabis high.

Terpenes themselves have physical effects on the body, and they are produced from the same plant glands that produce cannabinoids. If you have ever grown Orange Bud and rubbed your fingers in the buds you will notice a zesty citrus smell which can still be there when many of the other scents have evaporated away. That’s because Orange Bud contains high levels of the terpene limonene.

What are cannabis terpenes?

There are over 100 terpenes, each with their own scent, flavour and medical effects. They allow unique aromas for our favourite cannabis varieties. Terpenes occur in other plants too, from tree leaves to flower petals. Fungi, algae, and bacteria also produce terpene compounds.

Natural terpenes are responsible for the unique scents which give a sense of calm when breathing in the fresh fragrant morning air from a forest or when walking past some garden flowers.
