Indica-dominant genetics × Durban Poison (influence)
Fast Poison, developed by Canadian Bred Seeds, is an indica-dominant strain engineered for a quick onset of effects. It aims to combine traditional indica relaxation with a unique intensity and speed, making it notable for both connoisseurs and medical users.
Appearance
Fast Poison plants are compact, reflecting their indica heritage, with broad, dark green leaves. The buds are dense, resinous, and covered in trichomes, giving them a frosty look. These plants typically reach heights of 60-90 cm, making them suitable for indoor cultivation with limited space.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Fast Poison is a complex blend of earthy, musky, and slightly skunky notes, accented by floral and herbal undertones. Upon inhalation, the flavor profile offers a smooth, rich taste characterized by earthiness and subtle spice, followed by a creamy, nutty finish with hints of roasted coffee and herbs.
Effects
This strain is recognized for its rapid onset, delivering a predominantly relaxing and sedative experience characteristic of indica varieties. Users report a strong body-focused high that can lead to calmness and a sense of well-being. While primarily indica, some users note subtle energetic or cerebral influences.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Fast Poison typically contains THC levels between 18% and 23%, with minimal CBD (<1%). Key terpenes identified include myrcene, contributing to relaxation and earthy aromas; caryophyllene, adding spicy notes and potential anti-inflammatory benefits; and limonene, providing a subtle citrus brightness. This combination supports its relaxing and potentially therapeutic effects.
Growing
Fast Poison is noted for its resilience and moderate growth requirements, making it manageable for growers. Its compact structure and robust bud development are well-suited for indoor environments. The strain demonstrates consistent performance, with growers reporting high success rates in achieving quality resin production.
Origins & Lineage
Developed by Canadian Bred Seeds, Fast Poison emerged from experimental breeding programs in Canada during the early 2010s. It is primarily an indica strain, with up to 80% of its lineage stemming from traditional indica genetics. While not a direct descendant, it subtly echoes characteristics of sativa-dominant strains like Durban Poison, modified for its indica expression.
