Trainwreck[Greenhouse]

Anyone thinking of just starting or may be thinking of haveing a change from the strains that you have been growing.The plant for you to try would have to be train wreck.The clip on you tube about this strain just don't give it the respect and show how big a yeilding plant that this is.I have done 3 grows of this strain now and each one more and more buds evertime.The plan i have been growing have all been flowered at about 1 ft tall and each one has several differant offshots.It is like haveing several plants in one.The most that i have had of one offshot dry was 26 grm dry.The whole plant came in at 5 ounce indoors under a 600 h.p.s.But if you are thinking of growing this strain then keep the lights realy close to the tops this will give the plant more easy access to get the internodes grown tight togeather giveing the grower max yeild.The buds grow like any other indica/sativa base plant but then towards the end the plant grows like little rhino's on the tops lovely.It looks like someone has cracked glass all over the plant when finaly dryed with a lovely coulour of green like a jade coulour.This plant has sure got to go down in the history of cannabis growing and i'm not sure if it has been entered in the cannabis cups yet but i have been to the last few and there was no show from this plant.Like i say anyone going for some new strains go for the indica mix the one with lemon skunk,trainwreck,the cheese,whiterhino,great white shark.Germanate these plants has stated on the greenhouse website www.greenhouseeds.com.Store the strains that you want to grow like i just took the trainwreck out and put the rest has recomended by greenhouse in a air tight leak proof container and store under the temps of 4 degrees and everyone will germanate.Soak them for 6/7 hours.I soak in water ph of 5.0/5.5 with a drop of multi thrive the superthrive only needs 1 drop to every ltr of water.Then get two saucers the same size and put kitchen tissue on one of them about 2/3 lyers folded over to form a cushion for the seeds.Then put the water made up on the tissue and wet it so it is well nice and damp.Make sure that you check them a couple of times aday i like a small filmof water some guys go the damp way but i always have good success with seeds so i go my own way.Put the second saucer over the top and keep out any light store at a warmish tem but not too warm.I also use cfl's on the seedling i think that these are the best lights foe young plants with out a dought.Wait for the seed to show it's tail then it will only be small so i leave till it is at least 5mm long.In the mean time soak some rockwool cubes in water ph has same has above but rince them through good style because the rockwool tends to have alot of dust in it try to flush this out.Make a hole that is no more than a cuple of mm deeper than the seedling if the tail is 5mm then make a hole about 7 mm.Drop the seed in with the tail down and tear a small section of the bottom of the soaked cube and cover the top of the seed with it not a massive section perhars 3mm square ten mist with spray gun.Wait till the seed poaks it's head out then get the lights has close has possible 2/3 ince of the tops you do not want leggy plants be it clones or seedlings.Wait till the plant has shown it's self it will force the ripped section to one side of the cube.Now there are one of two things that you can do once the first set of true leaves messure about 10 mm across from end to end.This is the time that i move it into the mother room with the other mothers and other clones.Most important that you keep the plants lights realy close within inces of the tops without burning.If you have to have that your lights high then this is telling you that you need a good exaust fan to full that hot air out has fast has possible.Within a week you should be at the stage where the true leaves are growing well but don't rush it dude wait till the plants leaves are a little bigger.Once the plant is one foot tall flower her don't forget have the lights realy close to the tops this will give you a far better internod structure.I would say that has soon has the plants are 2 week before the change of the light cycle change then you must put them in the biggest containers that you can find this will give the plant plenty of room for it's roots the bigger the better.Veg them till the plants reach 1 ft tall if say 4 reach a foot then you will need to raise the others old cd cases ideal for this.Put the plants this time in there feed at 5.5/6.0 with a feed like vitalink ab veg/bloom both have realy served me well and i will not change i have tried differant like sensi plus advanced nutrients but 2 veg a nad b for a tenner the same with flower you can't go wrong but i do add buddy plus mallasess to the flowering feed.If the plantation that you have is only small and you are growing in soil then flush the plants once a week then give them 3/4 hours to dry out and let the run of go down the sink in the bath.After the plants seem to have stopped running i add new made nutrients 67ml of a and the same 67 b of the flowering vitalink.I do not add buddy till week 2 of flowering this is what is recmended by the people who make the stuff so who are we to argue.But one of the 3 most important thing in growing is the lights need to be has powerful has you ca afford but you realy need h.p.s i would never flower any of my cannabis plants under cfl's the risk is too high and not worth it.Get a good set of h.p.s 250 is a good starting platform but you will need a exaust fan that can get the heat out of the grow room if you have never used h.p.s light then you will wonder how you coped without these lights they are not expensive to buy either.The next has mention above the growroom will need a good exaust system and that will anable you to have the lights of the top of the plants.The last but not least is since i have been flushing my plants everyweek to get rid of any salt build up the plants are yeilding alot more and look alot better in them selfs.But like i say by ordering this mix pack of indica seeds just germanate like i did i allready had a trainwreck plant from a last order but i have just set of a has plant this seedlig is 1 week old just got its true leaves end of next week it will be time to go under the 250 h.p.s light that i have my mothers in.Can't wait for this hash plant because these can produce massive yeilds and a good smoke a meditation kind a buzz[nice]But that is it folks get on the trainwreck and store the rest in a fridge at 4 degees and take out has needed just clone the first trainwreck by doing this you will still have a mother plant.:leaf:TYKE:leaf:

i started a trainwreck and after 3 weeks i had an accident with mt flouro light and wrecked my train. so its was stunted but recovered. put it in 12/12 and it stretched quite a bit. it wasnt my main priority plant so it was placed behind others and shaded. so needless to say was a small yield. as it was curing, to me, smelled horrible, was like spicy and or peppery. anyway after about 3-4 weeks of cure, the smell became more appealing. tried the smoke and was very sweet. i chopped after 9 weeks of 12/12. to me though it was chopped 2 weeks early.

so i have a clone from the seed plant. it just finished 7 weeks of 12/12 going for 11 weeks. it got the stretch like the mother plant, but the clone is placed in better light. i will say the side shoots get some nice tops like the main cola. i will plan on growing this strain again.

i grew out the indica mix pack you refer to. was very happy with all the strains.
will def. grow again-lemonskunk, trainwreck, white rhino
