Loco Motive
Also known as: Loco
Loco Motive Strain Overview
Loco Motive is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder Exotic Genetix. The strain was created by crossing the popular Trainwreck strain with an undisclosed indica-dominant parent, resulting in a well-rounded genetic profile that combines cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The name 'Loco Motive' plays on the 'Trainwreck' lineage while suggesting the powerful, locomotive-like effects users can experience.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green leaves contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of frosty trichomes. The buds often have a slightly conical shape reminiscent of its Trainwreck heritage. Loco Motive is known for its complex aroma profile that combines fuel-like notes with sweet undertones, making it a favorite among connoisseurs seeking a potent yet balanced experience.
Loco Motive has gained popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis markets for its reliable effects and manageable growth characteristics. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following among enthusiasts who appreciate its balanced nature and potent effects. The strain represents a successful hybridization that maintains the desirable qualities of its Trainwreck parent while adding additional stability and consistency.

Loco Motive Strain Growing Information
Loco Motive is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive in warm, Mediterranean-like outdoor climates. Plants tend to reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Growers should monitor humidity levels carefully during flowering to prevent mold issues.
