How to grow Desfrán
Taste
Seb's take
Bred from selected Destroyer clones tracing back to Colombian Punto Rojo, Mexican Oaxaca, and Thai Meo — landrace geography doubling as a family tree. Pear, grape, and apple on the nose; the high is psychedelic, euphoric, and energetic at 22 to 26% THC, decorated with awards across Argentina and Brazil.
Where it comes from
Dutch Passion built her from selected clones of the Destroyer line, and its roots run deep into landrace territory: Colombian Punto Rojo, Mexican Oaxaca and Thai Meo all sit in the ancestry. That is a family tree that doubles as a map of the great sativa-growing regions. A pure sativa, decorated with awards across Argentina and Brazil, and every bit as exotic as the geography behind her suggests.
Nose & flavour
An unusually orchard-like nose for a tropical sativa: pear leads, with grape and crisp apple behind it. Sweet, fruity and clean rather than spicy or fuel-heavy, a fresh-fruit aroma that sets her apart from the incense-and-citrus Haze crowd. Distinctive, and rather refreshing for the type.
The high
Psychedelic, euphoric and energetic, a devastating cerebral effect, in the record's words, and a properly heady one at 22 to 26 percent THC from a pure sativa. This is a soaring, immersive high rather than a gentle lift, so treat the first session with real caution. One for experience and an open afternoon rather than a quiet night in.
Growing it
A pure sativa, finishing in around sixty-six days and returning 500 g/m². No height figure appears in the record, but a 100 percent sativa of landrace stock will stretch considerably, so give her the headroom and be ready to train or tie down the taller growth. She carries a full 1 percent CBD alongside the high THC. Patience is the watchword with a plant of this heritage; house her properly and she rewards it with something genuinely exotic.
