How old is Trainwreck

Hey again Tony,

It's really hard to say because some of these handles got put on (to distinguish them) after the cut got popular to the point that there was imposter cuts abound (via selfings and not some m/f seed line is my guess). The first cut I got was said to come out of some UC Davis folks camp. This was the same time Tuck was talking about pesky intersex expression and the arcata cut, the arcata cut likes to throw nanners if taken too deep into late floral stages. This Davis cut, didn't do that or purple as easily and etc like i mentioned in the previous post.

But these all above fit the description folks here are laying down, TW is a vine more than a plant, miss floppy, and has a very distinct aroma/flavor. 2 years back a partner brought up some tw clones out of the bay area, this shit wasn't tw at all, who knows wtf is was but there is no mistaking tw. When that type of stuff starts happening it's time to start covering bases to make certain she's not lost. So I'm growing/breeding the hell out of it currently :D
Your the man Tom now we can be assured she wont be lost and forgotten. any one notice the distinctive leaf serration with the tips being long and skinny with no blades for about an inch i just picked up a few from UPNORTH and this trait stands out and have noticed this from pics of others Trainwreck

Is Train Wreck known to be in southern Ontario and if so is it fairly common, because I have been looking to her for years.

TGT, like many of the Cali cuts, we here in BC have imposter cuts that are named to sell. The Trainwreck out here in the lower mainland, is not rally trainwreck, more likely some selfed or bagseed thing. Would not be surprised if that is what you are seeing. Peace GS

Any of you guys know what Steve Tuck used to out cross the TW cut with to start his line??? I thought I had read long ago that it was Afghan pollen but not certain. Got some TW beans on the way from Chris @ Woodhorse so this thread caught my attention. Any info is appreciated. TIA!

TrainWreck is so old...

TrainWreck is so old...



Even Disco Stu can't tell you!...


I remember hearing about it until 98 or 99, so it very well could have been right around that time to maybe a couple years before

Great shot bro FC, yah similar to lime with something more special spice...
So i would say Combava!!! Findable at the grocery Thaï or Chinese of your district... Please check out to confirm my nose and terpenes... :smoke:

"Chromatography of this extract showed a high concentration of mono terpenes, pinene, limonene, sabinènes, citronellal and monoterpenols.
Limonene stimulates the cytochrome P450 responsible for purifying properties of the liver.
Pinenes and sabinènes are restructuring the connective tissue, nutritive tissue of our organs and storage location of wholes our metabolic toxins.
Citronellal is an anti-inflammatory and decongestant. The tonics are monoterpenols physical and nervous."

I brought a clone home from nor cal that was labeled trainwreck and seems to be close in smell
and taste but my 1st attempt flowering it was crappy and I had to pull it early so I couldn't evaluate
it properly. I'm about 46 days into 12/12 in this picture.
it's viney but not the most viney I have. it flops really bad also. it bulks up much quicker
than the rest of my garden with maybe half of the hairs turning orange early.
it has itsy bitsy little calyxes.

How long does the clone only Trainwreck take to flower?

Can anybody recommend a co-op where a legit arcata cut can be found?
I had hoped to get one at HPRC but I showed up in march when they were out of clones.
I spoke to the fella running their grow a couple years back and I figured that it would be my
best source for verified genetics as a k-mart type shopper with no inside connection in Cali.
It was my first trip back to Humbolt since starting my own garden and I was really
bummed that I could not get any genetics from them.

Yeah, still going. But I get the feeling that they still don't ship to the U.S. on the regular. They quit shipping to U.S. altogether for a long while I think. Much thanks to CHris for hooking me up!! :biggrin:

God I love trainwreck. Another cut that I let go and should still have in my garden. Can't wait for Tom to release what he has been working on.
Anything else you got in the works Tom you would like to tell us about?
