Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Mendo Purps and Trainwreck give this one a proper Christmas-tree shape, heavy with resin-coated buds that turn violet if the nights run cold enough. Lemon, lavender and pine wood carry an intense aroma through to the smoke, and the high lands as a moderate, stimulating cerebral lift rather than anything overwhelming. Give her the headroom indoors - she grows with conviction.

Growing Purple Trainwreck: what to expect

Feminized, so you'll not be sexing plants or evicting males. Photoperiod, so veg lasts exactly as long as you decide — see the vegetative stage on how long that ought to be.

Expect around 9 weeks in flower — textbook timing. Textbooks, for once, being useful: here's ours.

Tall, at 300 cm or better. Indoors that means training from early on; outdoors it means picking a spot the neighbours can't see over.

She produces respectably: 400 – 600 g/m² or thereabouts when treated well. Consistency is her selling point — feed her properly and she keeps her end of the bargain.

Potency sits in the milder band — 17% THC on the breeder's sheet. No embellishment from us; the figure is the figure.

Sweetness leads on the nose, and she doesn't whisper it.

The dominant note in the reviews is uplifting; daytime company, by most accounts.
