Also known as: Poison Dwarf OG
What is the Poison Dwarf strain?
Poison Dwarf is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Poison Dwarf is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain known for its compact growth structure and potent effects. The strain was developed by crossing two classic indica varieties, though its exact genetic lineage remains somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records. Its name reflects both its growth characteristics (dwarf-like stature) and its powerful, sometimes overwhelming effects that some users describe as 'poisonous' in high doses. The strain gained popularity in the early 2000s among growers seeking high-yielding, space-efficient plants with strong medicinal properties.
Visually, Poison Dwarf plants are characterized by their short, bushy structure with dense, resinous buds that often display deep purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining earthy, skunky notes with subtle hints of citrus and pine. These aromatic qualities are largely attributed to its terpene profile, which is dominated by myrcene and caryophyllene.
Notably, Poison Dwarf is recognized for its rapid flowering time and resilience, making it suitable for both novice and experienced cultivators. The strain's effects are predominantly physical, with users reporting strong body relaxation and sedative qualities. Due to its potency and specific effects, Poison Dwarf is often recommended for evening or nighttime use rather than daytime consumption. Its reputation varies among cannabis communities, with some praising its medicinal benefits while others caution about its potentially overwhelming psychoactive effects for inexperienced users.

How do you grow Poison Dwarf?
Poison Dwarf is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants have a relatively short flowering time of 7-8 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor harvest typically occurs in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain is known for its compact, bushy structure, usually reaching heights of 90-120 cm (3-4 feet) indoors and slightly taller outdoors. It produces dense, resinous buds with good yields of approximately 400-500 grams per square meter indoors or 500-600 grams per plant outdoors. Poison Dwarf thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers controlled indoor conditions where temperature and humidity can be managed. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. They are relatively resistant to common molds and pests but require good air circulation due to their dense bud structure. Some phenotypes may display purple coloration when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during the final weeks of flowering.
