low THChigh THC

Trainwreck potency is higher THC than average.

Trainwreck is a mind-bending, potent sativa with effects that hit like a freight train. Mexican and Thai sativas were bred with Afghani indicas to produce this Northern California staple, passing on a sweet lemon and spicy pine aroma. Trainwreck begins its speedy hurtle through the mind with a surge of euphoria, awakening creativity and happiness. Migraines, pain, and arthritis are mowed down by Trainwreck’s high-THC content, and many patients also use it for relief of anxiety, ADD/ADHD, and PTSD. There are many stories about the origin of the name. Some say growers grew it among a train wreck in Arcata, CA. Others say the plant's sprawling growth resembled a train wreck.

Trainwreck welcomed me back to the world of marijuana! I had "party smoked" junior high school through college until the mid-90's when I graduated and got jobs that randomly drug tested....government jobs...I am watching you. LOL. Just local small town Planning and Community Development jobs. Up to the point I quit smoking for employment reasons, I smoked whatever came to me. Sometimes good, sometimes bleck. Never bothered with strain info. Now, fast forward to the mid-00's and my eventual defeat by my lifelong chronic depression. When I say defeat, I mean government disability due to "chronic non-medical responsive depression". Basically, I lost my wife at 36yrs old and couldn't function enough to hold a job and was failing to help my son through his grief. The loss of anything keeping me ok fell apart. I even allowed myself to do shock treatment to kick my depression. Didn't work. Only humilitation from the stigma. Suicide was always lurking in the shadows....THEN....my sister had some weed 2 xmas' ago and couldn't fly with it so I decided to get high after all this time. Trainwreck was it's name and it gave me a fighting chance to push the depression to at least arms length. I had no idea you could breed specific strains to help with specific ailments. It gave me that needed space to shake free from my depression and actually say "I'm ok." I cried and cried and cried. I had finally found the thing that could help me in my fights with depression. I am in a non-medical state and have to search real hard to get Trainwreck or a similar sativa dominant hybrid that helps the most. But I won't let that stop me. Thank you Trainwreck. You'll never know how much you helped me change my life.

I am 41, and someone who smokes regularly (several times a day) & this is my favorite flower. It TRULY helps w/ chronic pain, & helps your mentality. I have a rare disease that makes me hafta take lots o meds (Oxycontin, Oxycodone, Diladid, & various muscle relaxers) & am confined (when I go out) to a wheel chair. This stuff not only is a great, "break-through" pain reliever, when all my pain meds fail me, but also helps lift my spirits better than any other flower I've tried (and thats ALOT, LOL!) and also settles me down when I need to go out in public (all the meds make me "trippy"). Hope this helps someone to at least give it a try. :)

A friend and I smoked this recently and I can say that it's been one of my greatest highs to date. It burns quickly and well compared to most, and got us feeling good within a small amount of time. This strain made me feel very euphoric; everything felt great and there was a considerable distortion of time with this one. Though the high lasts a long time, it wore down after awhile and I became sleepy quite quickly. Recommended for insomniacs or anyone who wants a euphoric high.
