You can get completely bombasted on this strain and it's fun (don't drive). If you can manage to focus you can very pleasantly direct your attention to the things your interested in....and they become ultra fascinating. I find it a relaxing strain. It's easy to succumb to complete laziness, but if you need to get things done, it's still possible. You just might not want to do those chores. I'm more inclined to read on trainwreck or have an interesting conversation. Anyway, it's worth purchasing. I've bought it numerous times.
Trainwreck is, to me, the perfect Sativa strain, and is my current go-to for long training runs. I'm a crohns patient and would not be capable of running even short distances without MMJ. Trainwreck has the unique ability to not only moderate my normal crohns pain but also provide the extra drive to push myself. I keep a stash of this one on hand for my 10 mile or longer runs, and it never dissappoints.
A lively head high, euphoric and energetic. Mild body high, but I have a hard time sitting still after taking this one.
I only vape, so I can't comment on how it tastes to smoke. I find the flavor when vaped with my SSV to be pleasant and earthy.
A warning, however - this one can hit hard and is a good four hour high. Go easy on it it you're new to the strain.
Love some t wreck. Flower or concentrate.its perfect for all the og's like myself.makes you forget your old. It's great for arthritis and energy. Thankyou Cali! Arkansas loves you
I really enjoy the terpene profile of this strain, very heavy pine and herbal taste. My favorites! This is a perfect daytime strain for me. Great for reducing anxiety while also enhancing productivity. Boosted my energy levels. I will be adding this to my rotation.
Best of best. No joke
Shout out from B.C Canada!
this strain has a few different stages. each of which affected my friends and I differently. started out with a "I feel good now, not high. But okay" about 2 minutes later the giggles kick in. around the 10 minute mark it really starts to hit you hard. Hence the name Trainwreck. Feels amazing but you get baked as fuck off a little bit. good feeling of being light headed, not sketchy but chill. Whole body felt funny. Feels trippy but still fully aware and remember it all Then either super talkative or silent. When you come down, its really subtle. No harsh drop or dizziness. It just slowly fades. Towards the end or about an hour or so into your high, you just feel ready to pass out from being tired. Can last between 3-12 hours we noticed.
my experience: super giggles. laughed at the dumbest shit you could imagine. motor skills and basic comprehension were non existing. couldn't even figure out how to put the cap back on my juice. couldn't figure out how to hold things in each hand. Talking like a happy confused little kid. I would NOT shut up. but remained fully aware of everything and remember it clearly. felt amazing. 2 solid puffs gave me a good buzz. One joint did me in. Hence my name "lyt3w8" my high lasted about 4-8 hours depending on how much I took.
my bro from Hope: he picked this up directly from the grower. Fresh picked that day. He was insanely chill. didn't talk much but just wanted to play with stuff in his hands. started out calm and well aware. hadn't hit him yet but after the 10/15 min mark, eyes were super red. barely keep his eyes open, and would still laugh like an idiot if provoked. 2 joints did him in. But he's also a heavyweight.
my other friend: she started out as the "paranoid" type. Freaking out then just got mad hungry. Then slowly transitioned into the "amazed by everything" type. Then finally into the laughing at anything that she sees. She is also a lightweight. One joint did her in.
That night we shared 2 joints between the 3 of us. 2 was the most any of us could handle within about 30 minutes.
All in all, this strain affects everyone differently. I highly recommend you give it a shot.
So, after going through about 5 joints with my bro over the last 2 days, I can say this is my favorite strain I've ever tried.
Looking forward to vaping it! Peace!

Originating near Arcata in the late 1970's, Trainwreck is a classic and distinctive Sativa on par with Jack Herer, and similar in effects, although the taste is completely different from the sweet, cotton-candy flavor of Jack.
Trainwreck's smell is pungent, sharp, and sour. The strain odor is not only strong but uniquely distinctive and instantly recognizable. With a flavor profile most similar to Sour Diesel, Trainwreck has a tangy sour foreground comparable to lemon oil, rosemary, and white vinegar. The slightly acrid background flavor is somewhere between pine sap, burnt garlic, and black coffee. The combination produces a pleasant lingering aftertaste. The strain flavor will be most appealing to those who love strong and sour flavors.
The strain's classic daytime sativa effects are similar to Jack Herer but with increase alertness, energy, and focus. This makes it an ideal strain for outdoor activities, repetitive work tasks, and intense study sessions. Trainwreck can also be a "creeper" strain with delayed full effects, so take your time consuming it. Some sources claim this strain is a hybrid, but the strain effects, leaf, and bud morphology are all Sativa dominant.
Bud morphology is pure Sativa, with long, soft, fingering buds with pointed tips. This is important to remember when shopping, as the old age and prestige of the strain have led to some manufacturers labeling other types of cannabis as Trainwreck (e.g. No Till). When these imposterors can't be identified by the lack of Trainwreck smell due to being in sealed containers, they might be identified by their lack of Sativa morphology. Trainwreck buds can be frosted but tend to be loose and airy even by Sativa standards. The buds are rarely dense and never round, with foxtailing being a common issue for growers.
My second favorite strain. I've smoked this strain for years very pungent smell and amazing happy high although I can be a little stupid on it.
