Comments-

I remember the first time I smoked TW. It was probably around 1990 and weed was scarce at the time. A guy I knew found something he called Trainwreck and sold it to me. When I looked at the bag I was extremely disappointed because it was all leaf. I couldn't find anything else at the time so I went ahead with the deal, took it home and smoked it.
Long story short; I couldn't believe how strong this leaf was. Fucking unbelievable for leaves.
After that, it was a long time before I smoked it (or its knockoffs) again but eventually, it came around fairly often and it was always a treat. At this time, it's probably been since 2003 or so that I've sampled some real TW so i was happy to try out Greenthumbs version to compare. I never grew it back in the day so I can't compare growth patterns, but as far as taste and high go, Greenthumbs is the real deal. I really hope some of the old school TW growers will try this one and let me know what they think about its growth characteristics.

Anyway, I can see why this one is listed as one of the all time greats. Great taste, great buzz, and a very solid yield, make this one a true elite. This stuff rips the head off many seasoned smokers, including myself. I would probably put this in the top 5-10 strains i've ever smoked.

Final Comment-
A very good medical strain for pain. In small doses I could see this being a very fun recreational strain but if you over do it, you're probably going to want to sit down for a while and relax.

Man… I love doing this!

That's bad ass I'm
Def getting mine tested.

Do you think they could have all gone a full 70 days the close up pics on the test sheet ( the 240x) they look like there is a lot of clear trichromb heads.

But still great grow and great yield on those.

I might have to try the train wreck.

I put plant #1 in the flower room last night...its about 12 inches tall.
The other 2 will veg a while longer as I make the final selection for the big pot. Im pretty sure I already know which one is going to be the winner and end up as my tree style plant.
How long did you veg the tree style plant and how tall did it get

Sure it could have gone longer but from all the testing ive done on multiple strains, the higher test numbers come from the earlier harvests on each plant. But, the taste usually improves on the longer versions.

I think I vegged about 35-42 days and didn't top at all. They did stretch but not to much for my room to handle. Probably around 5.5 feet tall or so....

It's been a long time and its hard to remember the details.

Sure wish all my old photos could be saved.
I know,,!! its a bummer , when I seen the title I went lookin for pics..idunno.gif
