Best durban poison seeds?

[OSBuds]

Mel Frank’s seeds are world famous. Frank provided thousands of marijuana seeds freely to numerous growers in the mid-1970s and early 1980s. He managed a vast collection of marijuana landraces and bred and hybridized for increased potency and earlier harvesting, so that growers in northern, colder areas could grow high-quality marijuana. In 1977, by request, he donated 9 landraces as seeds and samples to the US government marijuana research program at its facility at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, Mississippi.

He also freely donated two varieties he developed, Afghani #1 and Durban Poison, which, along with Haze, Hindu Kush and Skunk #1 from another colleague, became the basis for the commercial seed industry in Amsterdam. A majority of all Dutch seed “varieties" have genetic roots from these five cultivars that came from California.

FWIW, here's a shot of the "Durban Poison" I sprouted from Dutch Passion about to be put on 12hr. I'll let everyone know how horrid it turns out.

I have been holding out on this 1 seed that I was gifted from a friend. I got him into growing back in '18 and he purchased some seeds. So I popped her about 6 weeks ago and took clones recently. Her on the left
Durban Poison

Her on the left

Looks like a similar taper, width, and posture to the leaves as the pheno I sprouted above. Should be exciting to see what you get!

Durban Thai Highflyer x C99 was supposedly good from Fleur du Mal seeds, never tried it but used to read about it, something to do with sccc or sssscc some shit like that

If you read the links in the posts, I quoted from some of the
content of that page. Not my words, just quoting some
strain history to share @ RIU.
