The genetic roots of this strain can be traced back to South Africa. Durban Poison is a heavy hitter, which definitely helps keep things interesting. A puff or two might make you feel like you’re ready to take on the day, while a bit more might stick you to the couch and make you feel powerless to get anything done. Some people are surprised to hear that about a sativa strain, but we’ve heard many people say that a good amount of Durban Poison does put them to sleep. If you want to feel uplifted and creative, it’s probably best to take things slowly with this particular sativa.
