In the world of modern cannabis breeding, few cannabinoids spark as much intrigue as THCV. Known for its energizing and appetite-regulating effects, tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) has become one of the most sought-after compounds for both medical research and consumer demand. At GTR Seeds, we’re proud to offer Double Durban THCV, a rare strain that highlights the best of this unique cannabinoid while preserving the legendary qualities of its Durban heritage.
Why THCV Matters
While THC and CBD are household names, THCV is still emerging from the shadows. Sometimes called the “sports car of cannabinoids,” THCV offers a fast-hitting, uplifting effect that’s often described as clear-headed and stimulating. Unlike THC, higher doses of THCV may actually curb appetite, making it especially interesting to researchers studying metabolic health and weight management. For consumers, it’s a rare chance to experience cannabis in a different way—energizing instead of sedating.
The Durban Legacy
Durban Poison, a pure South African landrace, is the flavor backbone of Double Durban THCV. Known for its sharp, sweet, and spicy aroma and a soaring, focused high, Durban has always been prized by breeders for its small but natural THCV content. We took this legendary profile and refined it through careful outcrossing and inbreeding, to create Double Durban THCV—a line that consistently expresses some of the highest THCV levels available on the seed market. Alone, we were never able to tease much "V" out of Durban. When paired with our in-house varin rich pollinator the magic happens.
