Durban Poison reviews

that shit was wack as hell

One of my Go-To Sativa's. Such a therapeutic mood enhancer, with a nice uplifting effect. I LOVE the looks of it, especially when it's grown right! Will ALWAYS recommend this, it's almost the "Prozac" of Cannabis :)

I'm not normally a Sativa fan but I love this strain. The cure from Raven Grass is sticky but still goes through my grinder well. The flavor is citrus, skunk, and slight mint in the exhale. I absolutely love landrace strains and this might be my favorite. The high is super uplifting and heady, almost a trippy head high when smoked heavily. Super happy all day medicine. This strains also great for people watching their weight, it acts as an appetite suppressant.

I love this strain. It's one of my go-to strains when out exploring the mountains. I'm lucky enough to live in the beautiful state of Colorado and have this strain readily available. It gives me great energy, euphoria, and an amazing uplifting high. It can make the novice a little anxious though, so be aware.

Contrary to most reviews, I've had very mixed results with this strain. However, I believe that to be attributed to a number of different variables. Unfortunately, the quality of the bud I received fell below expectation, even in spite of the understanding that it was sun-grown. It was not dense. It was leafy, fluffy, soft, and perhaps not cured very well, because it didn't appear to be dried to completion. Too often would it fail the "stem test", as I call it. The stem material wouldn't always "snap", as I would expect from well-dried bud. Additionally, I found the herb rather difficult to separate from the stem. This, I believe, allowed for some unwanted stem material to get mixed in with my ground-up herb. This would seem to explain the unpredictable death-hits I would get, of which there were many. They very first time I hit it, I choked out. But regardless of those unpredictable stem-burning hits, it seemed overall a harsher toke. On occasion, it would be more friendly, but for the most part, ripping a Jay would be a bit of a chore. This is partially why I switched to vaping it. And what do ya know? It's 4:20 right now! Anyway, now for the effect. With some exception, I found this particular stuff's effect to be different than what I'd hoped for. Maybe if I had been working with a higher grade that was cured to perfection, I would have had a much better experience. There were only a few times in which I would smoke a Jay, or hit a freshly-packed vape, and recieve great feelings of content, and well-being. My awareness would seem to extend into my environment. At times, it would feel like I was in absolute harmony with my environment, and I'd feel as though I was experiencing myself from an expanded, more harmonious and connected perspective. This is the best thing I can say about my experience with this strain, but it was uncommon. The most common experience I had wasn't nearly as pleasurable. Of course, it would melt one's stress and anxiety upon inhaling, but the main effect, I found to be much less enjoyable than that of other Sativas. I would describe it as a pressure in one's head. A strong pressure, a heavy stoned feeling, and little else. In this case, I would describe it as a "heady" stone, but not very "cerebral". When I say cerebral, I essentially mean psychoactive. It was only really cerebral those few awesome times when it would surprise me. This heady pressure, and heavy stoned feeling would last for what seemed like FOREVER. Now, I'm sure that a long-lasting effect would be favorable to most smokers, but not for me, and not with the stuff I had. The thing is, most Sativas and hybrid strains I've tried have a pleasurable "gradient", as I like to describe it. This gradient often makes for a favorable progression of effects. Not only do you get to experience a variety of changing effects, but these changes help you to not feel so "stuck in time." Unfortunately, this strain did not have that variation. At least, not the bud I had. It was a relentlessly static, and enduring effect. Forget nighttime smoking with this stuff. It just lasted so damn long, and the taper was just the same effect on a painfully-slow decline. At times, especially when trying to sleep, I really felt suspended in time, and that really sucks. Someone described this strain as the "espresso" of weed, and with that, I would absolutely agree. It's a very strong head stone, but not one that I, personally, enjoyed.

Amazing strain! Great for ADD, I love the focus it gives me. After being prescribed adderall & Vyvanse over the years I decided wit switch to medical cannabis. Durban Poison is a perfect substitute for stimulants.

Most terrifying experience of my entire life!!! I was amazed to see that so many people gave this sativa strain 5/5 stars -- some even claiming that it helped their anxiety when I had the complete opposite experience. I was a heavy smoker for a year, took a tolerance break due to getting busted and living in an illegal state, and when I started up again I picked this as my first strain to get back into vaping cannabis... big mistake. I took 1 hit and all was fine. I felt very high and "blissed out." A few hours later I took 2 hits in a row... and that's when it all went downhill. Apparently I said to my husband, "I'm freaking out!! I'm freaking out!!" I kept seeing colors... rolling hills... shapes... a very psychedelic experience that I've never had on weed. At one point I heard a repeating loop of scary music and felt like I was on the brink of "going crazy." I also felt like I "died" and had one of /those/ kinds of experiences. My anxiety was through the roof due to racing adrenaline. My legs were shaking uncontrollably for 2 hours and I kept attributing it to "being cold" but it was definitely a case of "the shakes" due to taking such a long tolerance break. My heart was beating out of my chest and was racing for about 5 hours. I got NO sleep that night and ended up pulling an all-nighter. I had residual anxiety for the rest of the second day and am devastated because I've never had a negative experience on weed, and this one almost made me stop using weed when I find it to be so useful medicinally in treating depression and anxiety. Although it was a terrifying, negative trip all around, I would say it made me appreciate my sober brain very much. Ever since this strain I have avoided sativas and try to smoke things with a decent CBD/THC ratio.

Great strain. One of my new favorites. I got my bud from Main Street Marijuana that was grown by Life Gardens. Don't let a low percentage of THC fool you -- this bud is amazing for its cerebral effects, good taste, and being fast-acting and long-lasting.
