I acquired and grew this original Trainwreck strain in Arcata, CA from 1997 to 2012. 45 days for the budding cycle. Lime green, and looks 100% sativa. The branches could be bent into a knot with nice sized resinous buds. With Trainwreck you can keep smoking and keep getting higher and higher, you don't usually plateau. Freshly screened hash from this stain retains the buds flavor. Interestingly with this strain is that it would hermaphrodite near the end of the budding stage (longer than 45 days) and would produce seeds that were females. I did acquire a regeneticized Trainwreck in the mid 2000's but it just didn't have the kick like the old.
One of my favorites. A strong, lasting high that made me feel happy and energetic. This one is perfect for a wake n' bake with a nice coffee.
I've had several strains called Trainwreck that were distinctly different.
The first was described by my dealer at the time as a heavy, caffeinating sativa and heavy and caffeinating, it was. After smoking, I dutifully cleaned my friend's entire apartment and made slutty brownies. Then sat down to write some music. The entire time, I enjoyed a steady stream of lively, intense thinking. One of the most sativa-y sativas I've had to this day.
Since then, I've only ever had hybrids and sativa-dom hybrids from rec stores called Trainwreck and it's been good, but not as good. It's thought-provoking, but not thought-inspiring. I feel creative, but I don't quite have the energy to act on it. It's still great for music, sex, taking walks, sensory experiences, movies/tv. It's pretty euphoric and heady but somewhat low energy.
Maybe I'm just nostalgic for that first experience, but when I hear "Trainwreck" I expect to be completely knocked flat by my own train of thought. Still, a great strain either way though and its popularity is well-deserved.
So... every time i get this strain, i seem to have the same dry mouth issue... it's really bad. It also tastes awful. It always seems to be harsh, although that could just be the harvest.
Also? Uncontrollable munchies lol!
The downsides, however, do not outweigh the good effects it has.
Being sativa, this strain definitely helps you focus. To the point i don't feel i need my vyvanse! That being said, though.. don't take it before bed! You'll be up all night! Great for wake n bake. I'd take this before an exam, to be honest!
Ok so I’ve had a couple of bad experiences with other strains , or it doesn’t give me the type of release I needed. My friend brought this over we started smoking and I haven’t felt this good in so long . I feel at peace with the world rn. All of my problems and stress errs just vanished . I acknowledge they are there but I’m at peace with them. This feels like a warm hug on a bad day guys . 10/10 my new strain.
It's ok, just ok. The terpenes triggers my sinuses and effects are not long lasting.
Amazing. One of the best strains i have ever smoked. made an acocunt on leafly to write this review :D
stay high!
I am very partial to indica but this is imo the best of both worlds! You will never be disappointed trust me, this is HEAVY!
