What to include: Tent size, light type, medium, nutrients, veg/flower time, dry/cure notes.
What you tasted: Terp profile in plain words—sweet, citrus, earthy, creamy, etc.
What you learned: Any small tweak that made a big difference.
Durban Poison Auto Seeds – Climate and Environment
Durban Poison Auto runs well in most setups. Control is king: steady temps, clean airflow, and proper humidity make the biggest difference.
Best fit: Hybrid plants like moderate temps and good air exchange.
Indoor vs Outdoor: Indoors: easier to lock dialed temps/RH year-round. Outdoors: choose a warm, dry window; avoid long wet spells late in flower.
Targets: Day ~24°C to 26°C, Night ~20°C to 22°C; RH ~60% veg → ~45% to 50% late flower.
Airflow: Canopy shake test—leaves should gently move. Stale air invites problems.
Durban Poison Auto Seeds – Yield Optimization Tips
Want more from your canopy without headaches? Focus on the basics done right and repeatable.
Start strong: Healthy seedlings, stable VPD, and clean water give you free momentum.
Canopy shape: Even tops catch even light. Train early; keep nodes level.
Nutrient rhythm: Feed to demand. If tips burn, back off. If color fades early, bump N or micros.
Light distance: Follow PPFD, not guesses. Watch leaves—praying is good, canoeing is not.
Finish well: Support heavy branches, keep airflow under the skirt, and dry slow for better bag appeal.
Realistic goal: high yields with quality-first density beat overfed, airy buds every time.
