Origins
The story of Frisian Duck began in the lush landscapes of the Netherlands, under the watchful eye of Dutch Passion, one of the most esteemed cannabis breeders.

Growing conditions
Cultivating Frisian Duck plants will be a joyful ride for growers with all experience levels, as this low-maintenance strain has a high resistance to mould and mildew. A big bonus for the outdoor growers is that it doesn’t look like regular marijuana – so you can nourish your plant in secrecy from your neighbours. Make sure to plant your seeds in the winter, as the plant will thrive best in temperatures between 21-27 degrees.
The plants reach a medium height of 1-1.5 m indoors with a yield of around 350-400 grams per square metre but can reach up to 2.5m outdoors – providing a generous harvest of over 450 grams per plant.
