Not all sessions need to be on the couch. For a walk to keep you in check, a creative project or a long to-do list, Durban Poison THCA flower and Super Silver Haze are two dependable daytime strains. Let’s look at how they’re similar and different and how to maximize the benefits of both.
Durban Poison: the pure sativa
Durban Poison breeds are landrace and are thus one of the original breeds that has not been crossed with much else. This is how it’s so fresh and straightforward. The taste is sweet, earthy and piney with terpinolene being the dominant terpene; one that you don’t see leading very of ten.
It’s full of energy and clear, making it a popular choice for those who like to get things done. The quarter pound we checked showed a 32.14% THCA reading, and is marketed as ugly buds, which refers to smaller and/or less attractive flower versus a more expensive variety.
Ideal for: hectic days, exercise, shopping, work.
Super Silver Haze: the refined masterpiece.
Super Silver Haze is a result of crossing the Skunk #1, Northern Lights and Haze. The blend provides enough sativa to make it feel like one but not enough to make it jittery. Aromas are citrus and pine, primarily from limonene, myrcene and caryophyllene.
When they want to be happy and positive but not wired, they turn to it. Great for creative endeavors, such as writing or designing something new, or cooking something new.
Ideal for: late mornings, creativity and social afternoons.
What choice do you need to make?
For novices in the sativa world, Super Silver Haze is a good introduction. It’s a bit softer and curvier.
If you’re already a fan of boisterous varieties, Durban Poison is a bit more aggressive.
Leave both if you smoke regularly. Move on Durban and create on Silver Haze!
Buy smart, not small
If you make it a habit to drink alcohol during the day, the price goes up quickly for 8ths. If it’s ounces or a quarter pound of cheap THCA flower ounces, this lowers the THCA flower price per gram a lot. Only be certain that the batch is exactly the same as the one you ordered, and that the flower is still very fresh when it reaches you.
Below are some suggestions for daytime strains:
If you’re not sure of what to start, go with just a little bit. If you overdo it, particularly on an empty stomach, Sativas can feel racy. Be sure to have plenty of water available, and don’t over-caffeinate water; take some water about 15 minutes before deciding you need more.
The bottom line
Both strains demonstrate that the THCA flower can be more than just for relaxation. Select one that is at your speed and remember to switch to the other on days when you need it.
For adults 21+. Ensure that you buy THCA flower in accordance with your state legislation.
