How is Durban Poison Fast Flowering from PEV Seeds?
It shows great vitality from the moment it breaks the seed, you can see the influence of pure sativa that runs through its sap. The growth phase will be shortened thanks to its vigor, since reaches sexual maturity much earlier than the vast majority of sativas on the planet, even before many hybrids.
During flowering it stretches the structure to triple its size, and in a short time it covers the pistil branches, which are longer than average. As soon as it stops growing, it focuses on fattening the flowers, forming very fleshy buds of medium hardness, with good thickness and totally sticky.
What is the genetics of this fast flowering sativa?
It could be said that it is a retro-cross between Durban Poison and Auto Durban Poison, because it is the first generation of the crossing of both, after creating the autoflowering version of this plant. This technique is used to shorten the flowering time of photodependent strains, crossing a genetics with its automatic version, to maintain the original genes of the variety in seeds with a much faster cycle.
How is Durban Poison grown Fast Flowering?
It is one of the few sativas that you can grow both indoors and in most places in outdoor cultivation. Indoors it is enough to put 9 plants / m2 in pots of 11 liters, with pruning so that they do not rise in height, and give about 3 weeks or 25 days of vegetative growth. When changing the photoperiod it is interesting to clean the lower areas of the plants, since the light does not reach well there. It is interesting to apply the method SCROG , or to supercropping, to maintain the desired height and homogenize the canopy.
In outdoor or greenhouse cultivation you have several ways to succeed with this variety. The ideal is to make a good hole in the ground, of 50 to 100 liters approximately of capacity, in a very sunny place, and fill it with specific soil for cannabis. If you want a tree to be made, germinate the seeds in early spring and plant them there, you will see the frantic rate of development that this genetics reaches. To take better advantage of the light, it is interesting to do apical pruning and then several prunings to the secondary branches.
