Nice shots African herbman! What are your thoughts on the Durban and the Malawi?

African herbman · 07-12-2007, 06:20 PM

Thanks Dunkirk, Well as for my thoughts on the strains, I’m pretty happy with the way they turned out. I harvested one of the DP’s that was ready and she’s very sticky, covered in crystals and quite pungent smelling, a bit like fuel but sweeter but when she’s touched it releases a rather stinky skunkish smell too so I can’t wait to smell her when the buds are cured

Besides the smell, DP is very tough and wit stood 3 days of –3 weather at night due to a huge cold front a while back. Both girls were easy to grow but a bit hard to train to stay low as they just want to grow into huge monsters, and fast too! Not the most potent strain but very nice and pure, trippy high.

The Malawi was also an ease to grow, no problems with her except a bit of drowning at one stage when the pot she was in wasn’t draining well but I soon diagnosed and sorted that out! Apparently Malawi doesn’t start producing descent amounts of resin until late into flowering, so I’m still waiting to see as she’s about half way through flowering now and the buds are beginning to fatten up a bit also quite a good amount of trich’s already

Nice pics!

The Malawi only packs on its resin in late flowering as you say, and it doesn't get very frosty, but the potency is still high.

Thanks for the info African herbman. Look forward to hearing how the Malawi turns out, nice to hear about the ease of growth!

My little Malawi’s fattening up nicely now especially after I did some heavy lower bud-sit trimming.

Here’s some of the same pics I’ve posted in “Revival of the ultimate sativa thread”

Same cola now:
