Hot Durban Glue
Also known as: Durban Glue, Hot Durban
Hot Durban Glue Strain Overview
Hot Durban Glue is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that combines the energetic, clear-headed effects of Durban Poison with the potent, resinous characteristics of Gorilla Glue #4. This strain emerged in the mid-2010s as breeders sought to create a balanced hybrid that maintained the uplifting qualities of a sativa while incorporating the physical relaxation and high resin production of indica-dominant genetics. The strain represents a deliberate attempt to bridge the gap between cerebral stimulation and bodily comfort, making it popular among both recreational and medicinal users seeking a versatile experience.
Visually, Hot Durban Glue typically displays dense, conical buds with a structure that leans toward its Gorilla Glue #4 heritage. The flowers are often heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty, sticky appearance that lives up to the 'Glue' portion of its name. Colors range from deep forest green to lime green, frequently accented by vibrant orange pistils. The buds are known for their exceptional resin production, which makes them particularly suitable for extraction purposes. The strain's aroma profile combines the sweet, anise-like notes of Durban Poison with the earthy, diesel undertones characteristic of Gorilla Glue #4.
Hot Durban Glue has gained recognition for its balanced effects and reliable performance, though it remains less widely documented than its parent strains. The strain's precise genetic ratios can vary between different breeders' versions, with most expressions leaning slightly sativa-dominant (approximately 60% sativa, 40% indica). Its popularity has grown steadily in both North American and European markets, particularly among users who appreciate clear-headed functionality combined with moderate physical relaxation. The strain's name references both its genetic heritage and its tendency to produce a warming, energetic sensation that users describe as 'hot' or stimulating.

Hot Durban Glue Strain Growing Information
Hot Durban Glue is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Yields are generally above average, with indoor growers reporting 450-550 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, and outdoor plants producing 500-700 grams per plant. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it thrives in controlled environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to reach medium height (1.2-1.8 meters) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in dense buds and monitoring nutrient levels carefully, as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding during flowering.
