Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Independent laboratory tests indicate that Durban Kush Cane typically exhibits THC levels ranging from 18% to 23%. Its cannabinoid profile is designed to deliver a potent yet balanced impact.

Origins & Lineage
Durban Kush Cane was developed by Motherland Genetics, combining the genetics of the renowned Durban Poison, a pure sativa from South Africa, with classic Kush varieties.

This hybrid represents a fusion of traditional breeding with modern techniques, aiming to enhance resilience and create a distinctive sensory profile. The strain has gained recognition for its innovative genetic cross-pollination.
