Trainwreck reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Trainwreck.
Crazy amount of energy from this one. Definately can replace coffee in the morning if you need an extra kick. No need for ritalin honestly, just smoke trainwreck; you'll be good
I picked this strain up in the form of a Jetty Extracts brand cart at a Bay Area dispensary. This is a great, unique strain. I agree with all the other reviews and Leafly’s page on it. It is energizing, makes my body feel super good in a way that makes me see how it would be great for chronic pain or any other medical uses. I have ADHD and no other strain has made me feel this focused or motivated. But it’s in a chill way. It has a huge euphoric dopamine hit at the beginning that I’ve never experienced with weed before. It’s like hitting a vape almost but weed. It also has me thinking extremely clearly. I feel level-headed. Maybe that is the creative side of it. Overall I’d say this is a highly euphoric, feel good strain that makes you want to go on a walk in nature.
The Medical Marijuana strain called Trainwreck came from Humboldt County, CA I think. I got a chance to grow it in Oregon in 2003 for my friend Rosemary. Her Medical Marijuana strain clones of Trainwreck were crossed with the Humboldt County, CA strain to the Oregon Trainwreck strain. I remember it going from Purple looking colas to Lime Green looking colas of Trainwreck back in the Fall of 2003. The Trainwreck strain I first tried in Oregon costs me $150 dollars for a Half ounce that weighed 16 1/2 grams but I almost died Hitch hiking to my friend Kyles trailer in the dark of night by a Huge Grizzly Bear but a Mexican Indian guy felt like if he didn't pickup me from walking out in to traffic that I was going to be killed by this Huge Male Grizzly Bear and he saved my life. The Mexican Indian said that I was pale as a ghost when I got into the passenger side cab of his Brown Datsun truck. The Oregon Trainwreck strain crossed with the Humboldt County, CA Trainwreck strain was awesome terpenes of Woodies, Lemon, and Earthy and it makes you feel anxious, energetic, and focused but it can make you paranoid, dizzy, and dry eyed after a few bowls of smoking the flowers of this Lovely Medical Marijuana strain called Trainwreck!!!!!!!
Piney, Balanced mind-body, Stimulating yet hazy, great for music.
Favorite strain ever! It’s such a chill, vibey strain and it’s not too sleepy, doesn’t make me anxious. It tastes like lemon candy and feels like falling in love.
Absolutely blown away with how different this strain is! First off, very easy to smoke. Next what a very unique terpene profile! And lastly, this strain immediately hits me cerebrally but also makes me feel social and in the mood but also tingly
Love it
I wish people would keep there reviews brief otherwise they don't get read .anyway spectacular strain tasted like a cherry cigar to me not your usual sativa buzz little heady mostly euphoria helped my pain pills out big time after a few hits I was nodding felt great pain free felt wrecked for a while . Great for hybrid or indica lovers

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.
