I remember reading somewhere on icmag where apparently there is the original trainwreck and then there is the arcata cut. Maybe the arcata is an S1 idk but ya, apparently arcata is not the original but its better

I was traded for Trainwreck from pnwstrainhunter on Discord - he described her as being the original "E-32 cut". Seems like that what she is to me - so the real one is still out there.
However, one of his customers got a positive HPLVD test on one he got from him, so mine could be too. Yet, she roots and grows well so far.
I'll give her to anyone who is into tissue culture for free on the condition that they shoot me back a cut from a mom that tested negative.
Here's a clone off the Trainwreck mother that rooted from just sitting in a class of water for about two weeks:
I made some seeds with her crossed to Tangie - even though they ripened outdoors - the seeds she produced were tiny. A few people here mentioned that the original Trainwreck makes small seeds, which makes sense to me because she has really small calyxes.

I remember some years ago someone here stated that it's hard to find a virusfree trainwreck mother these days. I don't think that this situation got any better.
The trainwreck clone going around austria has something in it. Last third of flower the buds start do dry on the plant, they change their color a bit into a darker olive tone and then you could plug them from the plant and smoke right away.
Other growers i know that use salts don't get that as pronounced as my water only living soil grow. Last try i could harvest only 1/3 of the plant the rest was infected.

Wow….that looks like the Wreck I grew almost 20 years ago here in NorCal…..beautiful! I can almost smell it from here, lol…..such a great plant, I’m soooo glad she’s still around! I’d love to give her another go around now that I have more experience under my belt….beautiful flowers man.

I think I remember reading that too, but I haven't had that happen yet.

what is the thing that dries it up? i noticed it happening with amnesia core cut too. at first i thought it was mold, but now that i read your post i realized it happens to many people with different strains. hmm.

I know it from core cut also but trainwreck is imo worst affected.
Some kind of virus/viroide imo.
