Trainwreck genetics?

HEy there jaws nicely vegged wreck! Wreck loves to be vegged to that height and then bent over a the main stem. All the side arms grow up and fill in equally! And that does look like the pure e-32 cut I know. Nice job!

hey there
I just got a trainwreck clone,and believe it or not,im from Portugal.im really amazed about the history and story about this strain.I just hope i got the real deal,but surely when it´s finished flowering i will post some pics,for the experts to tell me.
At this point the clone is still small and veging in to a mother plant.i really like the way it´s developing,and since im bonsaiing it,it looks great.the only thing i could say,is that in comparising it with a strawberry,it has a slithly slow growth.but never the less it looks fine and healthy.
Here is a seneak peak on the babes.

Nice thread going here... :headbange ...I love the Wreck like so many others!

And yeah I heard the same thing about the G.H. TrainWreck but I do know that there are other companies also coming out with the Wreck and some killer crosses of the TW. So I would say wait and see who has the best price...best quality ratio...probably won't be the G.H. but not to say their beans won't be good.

Great Thread everybody!
I don't have any of my own sativas right now but here are a couple of pics from a friends TrainWreck that I'll be tokeing in a few. The plants are huge as usual for this guy but it's after a short rain and they are sagging. These pics were taken a few weeks ago at least, they've put on some weight since then.
TrainWreck has that uplifting high with no cieiling, just upup and away. Just gotta watch out you don't go one toke over the line.
Irie, Bud

dr g-thanks for the info. ya i can relate to the smell thing-i read someone describe it once as rotting whale carcass! lol-i get it now-its like one side of my brain gets pleasure from smelling it, and the other side hates it! the person who passed it to me says she does tend to hermie in mid to late 60's-shes had clean water since early 40s so ill take her soon. thx again....sub

mexican sativa

mexican sativa

"Mexican Sativa (dirty mex brick weed)"
You can actually get awesome mexican sativa. Sensi seeds sells it as Mexican Sativa. It just needs to be grown with some love jsut like anything else. I doubt it was a stupid new-be that got it in the mix but everyone has there own story.

b.) that cross was "Mostly" LowLand Thai x Mexican Sativa (dirty mex brick weed) ... that some how (stuipd new-be) got into the mix ... and X with standered Indca dom strain of the late 70's early 80's era that was (and is) the staple of out door in much of the P.NW then and now.
c.) the plant NEVER really seemed to come in - did NOT purple even when it was left in (for what seemed for ever) - it DID get a light BLUSH of mauve!
d.) when we did finally cut it (in the sleating rains of a late year = not even worth going back for was the argument - short hike but like why bother for that huge creeper like THING that didn't have any bud on it last time we looked) -- well we ended up going down the hill - and found SOME AIR BUD on it - long fethery branchs. + had seeded a bottom branch PER: SOP of anything "weird' - or GREAT!
e.) then once we got it up and dried the damn thing - and 'tested it' = WOW .. end of story ..
f.) e-32 (what is now called TW) became ledgen - in 82 there was NOTHING comprable.
g.) so that's that -- the seeds were pretty much stable from that X - and over the years we weeded out <pun> the Broad leaf tendencies ...
--- yeild IS low = its comes in consistantly
w/o Co2 at about 80% of a LB per 1000y
w/ Co2 at about 110-120% of a LB per 1000y
out doors well how big are the plants (chuckle) BUT it tends to hold CLOSE to the 21.3 grams per Sq Ft vs. the 31.95 to 46.2 grams per Sq Ft in full sun of any of the broad leaf phynotypes. and color = yup its GREY NOT GREEN! because of the crystals - which are ALL OVER THE PLANT from bottom of the stem to the tippy tops! You know its wreck if: Every time you look at it you wonder if its got MITES - and when you look closer you see its JUST the grey of the KRYSTAL looking like mite webs! your arm hairs are sticky and you don't remember touching anything in the room ... it SMELLS of MINT - or menthol ...the TINY buds at the base of the stem are CRYSTALLY TOO -- just like the tops - and when they are dry they are total KRYSTAL = snow white ... and you find your self going "wow this is better looking then the tops! If your checking the SIZE of your ONE hit - not how MANY hits you can take before total couch lock ...Then - that's the wreck!

Train Wreck

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Of all the strains called "medical" there is, in my mind, no better nor stronger strain than Train Wreck.

Train Wreck is an old hybrid (1970's) from Humbodlt of lowland Thai, Mexican Sativa, and a very solid and potent Afghani.

Train Wreck (TW) is particularly good for the treatment of migraine, pain, and nausea.

While TW is thought to be a Sativa dominant (and looks like it) it's actually got quite a bit of Afghan in it making this an extremely potent hybrid. I'm guessing our TW is probably a 65/35 Sativa/Indica.

There are a few true TW seeds around but don't expect to find them. If you did you'd be real surprised that this 42 flower strain from clone is 9 months when grown from seed. This is because in Train Wreck the gene that controls flowering is time from germination.

You can see that Wreck is almost vine like with fine Sativa like leaves. Resin production begins almost immediately in flower and can cover the entire plant in frost.

One of the striking things about Wreck is the color. It's not really green at all. Here's some of my popcorn nuggies taken from a small plant at day 42.

Train Wreck is an excellent strain for SCROG. Here's some Humboldt Wreck harvested at 42 days following an indoor Odro grow.

Some caution about Train Wreck....This strain is a creeper, especially when fresh. You take one toke and it takes a good 5 minutes before you find yourself toasted. Some make the mistake of toking while they're waiting for that first toke and find themselves truly stoned. Heck, my wife smoked Wreck by mistake and got lost in the pool :)

Cured for 3-4 weeks, TW loses some of the "creeper" quality and becomes rock hard nuggies that are stronger than most hash.

Finally, the taste is of a mentholated dead whale dipped in lemon gasoline.

Yours,
Dr. Jay

Pics are in the Med thread

Tex


I couldn't agree with you more...
 
Got a bag of thr Trainwreck today..found myself really stoned and interested in the strain. It reminded me of one of my favorite strain the "Afghani" so i wanted to figure out the genetics figuring it was an afghan cross. seems to bee a little bit of every answer out there id say this sounds like what i have for sure..

Botta X her w/ 3 different mexicans ( 2 separately sourced acapulco golds, & the other from the puerta vallarta area), the apollo13bx, a cocoa kush x blueberry cross I call gordo's blue and my Finley G-13 male. Oh and I have a single S1 from my outdoor girl last year, she's def showing off her afghani side.

If TW is made up of lowland thai, mex, and afghani that makes it similar to blueberry in it's background. No wonder I like it so much.
