High Speed Train
Also known as: HST
High Speed Train Strain Overview
High Speed Train is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing the popular Trainwreck and Super Silver Haze varieties. The strain was created to combine the cerebral stimulation of sativa-dominant genetics with the physical relaxation of indica traits, resulting in a well-rounded experience suitable for various times of day. Breeders aimed to create a strain with rapid onset effects, as suggested by its name, while maintaining manageable growth characteristics for cultivators.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense structure characteristic of its indica heritage, covered in a generous layer of trichomes that give the flowers a frosty appearance. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to lighter lime hues, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The name 'High Speed Train' references both the strain's genetic lineage (Trainwreck) and its reported quick-acting effects that users describe as arriving with noticeable speed and intensity.
High Speed Train has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its versatile effects profile. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, it has developed a following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate balanced hybrids. The strain's relatively high THC content combined with its complex terpene profile contributes to its distinctive experience, though comprehensive laboratory data remains somewhat limited compared to more established commercial varieties.

High Speed Train Strain Growing Information
High Speed Train is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around mid-October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants tend to develop a bushy structure with moderate height, making them suitable for spaces with limited vertical clearance. High Speed Train responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Growers should monitor humidity levels carefully during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible in overly moist conditions. The strain prefers consistent temperatures and benefits from proper nutrient management throughout its growth cycle.
