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.

Oh how I miss you soooo very much. In illinois, I have never seen this in a dispensary. Ever. Yes in a cartridge a time or 2, but we all know that when it's coming from a company that doesn't have that flower, or any company for that matter, they've taken terms that match its flavor and just made it in their lab. This is a one of a kind buzz. I still can reme.ber it to this day. 2 hits and I could feel this exotic , almost wild feeling like I had been thrown on a speeding train ripping through the jungle. Lol. Nothing else like it before or since. Could easily see it being too much for a novice. It could very well wreck your day. Defined for those who are mentally strong. But it made me want to just dance and everything was interesting to me. I was talking to strangers, and had the urge to explore the woods behind a friend's house. But where is this stuff? It's like gone. For years I have looked and nobody knows. Maybe in another state.. idk. But if they'd just grow it in illinois, they'd make a killing off of it. I'd go as far as to say it's almost bucket list material for me at this point. I know there's desire for it because you can find premixed terms for it in mass quantities in every headshop around. I hear oldtimers talk about their wonderful stories with it. It's a shame the closest we can get is the rare pineapple express flower by Cresco. It's half trainwreck so they say. It's gone as soon as it arrives. I've even secured an order of it, and 45 minutes later I show up for it...sold out! Smokers unite! Resurrect this legend! Convince your dispensaries! Talk to growers in the industry! Seeds are available , I've seen them a few times recently. When I say I know of hundreds of people who want this strain, I'm not exaggerating at all. And on the other other end of the spectrum... Hindu kush. Another one I've never seen in illinois. The best thing for insomnia I've ever had. Super couch locker...but great medicine. 100% indica. Un altered. Just as God made it. And it would make killer concentrates as well. Sometimes, the originals are all that is needed. Yeah you can get afghan kush, but it's not the same. Hope this is of help to someone. If you find trainwreck... cherish every toke. You are lucky. God bless!

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.
