"This sativa is a good candidate for both indoor and outdoor growing. The breeders made a vested effort to reduce the flowering time of the original Durban Poison while improving its production potential, so growers in less-than-ideal climates may be able to give this one a go. Plants generally need about 11–13 weeks to flower, with the F1 version taking, on average, about a week longer to finish than the BC1 version. The plant displays thin, green leaves and is happiest outdoors in a mild climate. When all is said and done, yields are medium–large in good conditions. Durban Punch was created to make Durban plants easier to grow and more bountiful. A 100% South African sativa hybrid, Durban Punch is the result of crossing a Durban Poison female with a Ciskei P3 male. With a racy and uplifting high, this strain could prove a bit too much for unseasoned smokers. For those up to the challenge, a mix of woody, anise, floral, and fruity notes can be expected on the nose and taste buds. With an average of 16–25% THC, and low levels of CBD and CBN, this strain is on the upper end of the potency spectrum. Given the strong Durban influence, it comes as no surprise that Durban Punch harnesses, and intensifies, its inherent floral, woody, and spicy anise notes. Definitely considered a savoury smoke, the Ciskei adds to this a welcome bit of fruit to balance out the profile. Once the cannabinoids and terpenes have made their way into the system, users can expect a characteristically "sativa" high defined by euphoria, a short-term increase in energy, and a boost in creativity. In terms of growing, Durban Punch has been bred to develop a manageable height and medium–large yields, with a reduced flowering period (for a Durban sativa)."
