OG Trainwreck
OG Trainwreck
Also known as: OG Wreck, Wreck OG, Trainwreck OG, OG x Trainwreck
Overview
OG Trainwreck is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa/30% indica) created through crossing the legendary OG Kush with the classic Trainwreck strain. This high-octane hybrid fuses the mind-bending power of Trainwreck with the timeless potency and gassy characteristics of OG Kush, resulting in a cultivar known for its powerful cerebral effects and medicinal properties. The strain emerged from Northern California's cannabis culture, representing a modern classic that combines old-school genetics with contemporary breeding techniques.
Visually, OG Trainwreck produces gorgeous, fat heart-shaped bright neon green nugs with distinctive blue undertones, thick orange pistils, and a heavy coating of frosty, blue-tinted white crystal trichomes that give the buds an almost sandblasted appearance under direct light. The chunky, conic buds are characteristic of its OG genetics, with medium-dense to dense colas featuring a calyx-forward structure. Well-grown flowers exhibit thick trichome coverage and colors ranging from lime to forest green, with cooler late-flower temperatures occasionally bringing out lavender hues. The strain's resin production is substantial, making it rewarding for both premium flower lines and solventless concentrate production.

Growing Information
OG Trainwreck is considered moderately challenging to grow, requiring attention to detail but rewarding experienced cultivators with high-quality results. The strain has an 8-10 week flowering period (typically finishing around day 63-67), with most phenotypes performing well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Indoor yields commonly range from 450-600 g/m² in optimized conditions, with skilled growers potentially exceeding 650 g/m² under high-intensity lighting and CO2 supplementation. The plants exhibit a 1.5-2.0x stretch in early bloom, making them suitable for both commercial trellis systems and home SCROG setups. Growers should monitor for proper nutrient balance, particularly increasing potassium and sulfur in weeks 5-7 to amplify terpene production. The strain responds well to silica supplementation (50-100 ppm) to strengthen cell walls and prevent late-flower droop. Harvest timing is critical - target when 5-10% of trichomes are amber for optimal balanced effects.
