Durban Ghost
Also known as: Durban Ghost OG
Durban Ghost Strain Overview
Durban Ghost is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain that combines the classic genetics of Durban Poison with the potent effects of Ghost OG. This strain originated from breeders seeking to enhance the energetic, clear-headed qualities of Durban Poison while incorporating the stronger psychoactive effects and complex flavor profile of Ghost OG. The result is a strain that maintains sativa characteristics while delivering more pronounced cerebral effects than its Durban Poison parent.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense structure, often displaying a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are usually covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the flowers, creating visual contrast. The aroma combines sweet, earthy notes from its Durban heritage with the citrus and pine undertones inherited from Ghost OG.
Durban Ghost is known for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation and gradually transition to mild physical relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among users seeking daytime relief without excessive sedation. Its relatively consistent genetics make it a reliable choice for both recreational and medicinal users, though individual phenotypes may vary slightly in their expression of parent strain characteristics.

Durban Ghost Strain Growing Information
Durban Ghost is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic systems indoors. Plants typically reach medium height (1.2-1.8 meters) and benefit from training techniques like topping or low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Durban Ghost is somewhat resistant to common molds and pests but requires good air circulation to prevent bud rot in dense colas.
