Seb's take
OG Kush and Trainwreck combine into an award-winning Indica-dominant hybrid, first Western Slope Cannabis Crown among its honours. Candy, citrus and lemon sourness on the nose; the effect is a calming, tingly body high that brings on both happiness and hunger. Low-maintenance and forgiving of enthusiasm.
Where it comes from
Herbies pair OG Kush with Trainwreck for this indica-dominant hybrid, the OG lending its weight and pungency, the Trainwreck its bite. Among its honours is the first Western Slope Cannabis Crown, taken in 2010, which is no small line on the résumé. Sixty-five percent indica, then, and decorated with it. A cross of two heavyweight American names that has plainly earned its keep in competition.
Nose & flavour
Candy and citrus lead, lemon in particular, over a sweet body with a sour edge keeping it lively. The buds run large and frosty, giving off a pungent, fruity smell as they mature. A nose that lives up to the confectionery in the name without ever turning sickly.
The high
A calming, tingly body high that arrives with happiness and, not far behind, hunger, so have something to hand. Relaxing rather than sedating, it settles without pinning you down, at a moderate 17 to 19 percent THC and a listed 3 percent CBD. Comfortable, sociable company for an unhurried hour.
Growing it
Flowering in 63 to 70 days for a heavy 549 to 641 g/m², at 17 to 19 percent THC. She thrives indoors or out and, best of all, asks almost nothing of the grower, low-maintenance enough that a first-timer keen to dive in headlong will manage her comfortably. Forgiving of enthusiasm, generous in return, and decorated besides. Few better places to start for the ambitious beginner.
