Durban Poison reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Durban Poison.
On another site I read that this strain was excellent for weight loss and ADHD -- I've heard incredible things about it from friends in addition to glowing reviews on Leafly. So I picked up a half and an eighth from a local shop. While it didn't give me the munchies, it didn't really change my eating habits like some other weight loss friendly strains. And while it didn't really give me any energy, it did help me stay focused during the work day -- so some definite potential here for ADHD. The flower did however make my situational anxiety exponentially worse.
Overall it tasted lovely, but I was disappointed given the hype, and likely wouldn't buy again.
Look: big round buds, loads of trichomes, sticky light green and orange
Taste: very piney, evergreen, earthy
Effect: clean sharp, energetic, alert head high. Excites the body and mind. No strong munchies
one of the best strains i have ever tried
One of my top three Sativa strains. It’s perfect for daily wake & bake sessions, even better enjoyed outdoors.
Second time trying Durban Poison. 10mg, high came on after about 1.5 hours. Peak is about 2.5 hours in while writing this.
Definitely feel some light munchies, and very euphoric. Doesn’t really make me feel productive, but for sure relaxed. No anxious thoughts, if I focus on something I don’t really feel high, just relaxed, and fairly clear headed.
well...what can I say, one of the best strains of all time. if you lack motivation and have anxiety sensitivity to certain saliva strains, this is a safe bet (for me). You will want to get stuff done without a racy feal. Great strain to get you out of a funk. It can trigger me, but I have to smoke way too much to get there. If you want to be social without impairment, it is great to take and spend quality time without being "stoney." Can get you chatty
Nothing to write home about on flavor and the effects are ok
As someone who’s prone to anxiety I’ve always shied away from most sativa strains considering most have proven themselves to make my anxiety worse. Although for me, Durban Poison was the rare exception.
The effects I personally experience with Durban Poison are quite unique. I find it to be strangely energizing and calming at the same time, leaving me with no trace of anxiety or paranoia. DP makes me see the brighter side to life with its mood enhancing properties which tend to lower my inhibitions in a similar fashion to drinking alcohol, thus making me more social.
As a native strain to the Earth void of human intervention, Durban Poison is the perfect example of why one shouldn’t try to fix something that isn’t broken. I recommend using this strain when socializing or doing physical activity.
