Though it comes by a few names - Blue Wreck, Blue Trainwreck, BTW - the common sentiment is that this bong friendly bud is an intense high that rolls over you with ease and leaves you feeling all the strengths of a heady sativa with the body buzz of a soothing indica. Two very popular strains, Blueberry and Trainwreck, lend their genetics to what is sure to be your next favorite bud.
The THC in this strain lands at around 24%, ensuring a consistent high that is both energizing and relaxing at the same time. Thanks to the plant’s bright blue parent, the flowers come out minty green with rich blue hues. The buds are covered in bright orange hairs and frosty trichomes that give off those unmistakable blueberry, tart, and almost pungent skunky aromas. The flavors are fairly similar in that they are rich in berry flavors, tart citrus, and skunk, though also have an after flavor of tree fruit.
Blue Wreck starts with an energetic all over rush right off the bat. After the first cerebral wave you’ll start to feel an intense and razor-sharp focus. This creativity and mental clarity can last for hours, but so will the completely relaxed body sensations leaving you feeling happy and at ease. These effects have endeared this strain to artists, students, and athletes alike. After a long stretch of energy, you’ll find yourself sinking into the comedown and suddenly find yourself overwhelmingly sleepy. Fighting this feeling proves fruitless, so just enjoy the rest. Some people have reported a slow-motion effect that has been described as “time standing still.”
Medical users love this strain for its energetic properties. They are highly beneficial to those who suffer from depression, stress, and bipolar disorder. Other physical discomforts such as mild pains, aches, swelling, muscle tightness, and headaches can be staved off with a few tokes. Due to its stimulative properties, nausea and lack of appetite can also benefit from Blue Wreck. The comedown often leads to drowsiness, which can be helpful to those with insomnia. Keep in mind that this is a very powerful strain that is not meant to be a primary strain. In excess it can have extremely adverse effects such as paranoia, anxiety, and a lack of coherence.
This evenly-balanced hybrid is a moderate grow, so any intermediates with a few plants under their belt will love this. It has a flowering time of 7 to 8 weeks indoors and a late September harvest outdoors. The yield is average and the flowers are a delightful aroma, perfect for anyone wanting to keep them close. However, if you require discretion, you may want to get some smell proofing equipment for your own benefit.
Whatever you call this bud, one thing we know for sure is that you will call it. The exciting flavors and powerful effects make it one of the rare ‘something for everyone’ strains. Though it is considered an any time strain, it isn’t really an any level strain. This one can get ahead of you quickly so it’s highly recommended that you test your limits before committing to the whole nine yards.
