Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Durban Poison crossed with Frisian Dew, pairing South African vigour with Dutch practicality. Sweet, tart fruit on the nose; the high stays active and sociable without demanding much of the body. Forgiving of enthusiasm, and equally content indoors, in a greenhouse, or out under the sky.

Where it comes from

Dutch Passion crossed Durban Poison with their own Frisian Dew for this one, South African vigour married to Dutch practicality, which is a fair summary of the plant that results. Sativa-dominant, it takes the lively character of the Durban parent and the hardy, weatherproof temperament of the Frisian side. A cross that keeps the best of both climates in the one plant.

Nose & flavour

Sweet and sour lead, fruity and slightly tart, with a lively terpene profile that leaves a bright impression. The Durban Poison heritage shows in the sharpness; the whole thing stays fresh rather than heavy.

The high

Uplifting, social, and creative at ten to fifteen per cent THC, with one per cent CBD alongside. An active lift that keeps the mind engaged without asking much of the body, sociable company rather than a solitary one, in keeping with the Durban side of the family.

Growing it

She grows with steady vigour and stays forgiving of enthusiasm, while giving seasoned growers plenty to work with. Tall, at roughly 250 to 400cm, so the headroom is not optional, this is a plant with real ambition in the vertical. Flowering in 56 to 63 days for 400 to 550 g/m². She handles a wide range of conditions, at home indoors, in a greenhouse, or outdoors, provided the airflow stays balanced.
