Nevil's Wreck
Also known as: Nevil's Wreck Haze
Nevil's Wreck Strain Overview
Nevil's Wreck is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by the renowned breeder Neville Schoenmaker, founder of The Seed Bank (which later became Sensi Seeds). The strain represents a tribute to Schoenmaker's pioneering work in cannabis genetics during the 1980s and 1990s. It was created by crossing Neville's Haze, one of Schoenmaker's most famous sativa creations, with a potent indica strain, though the exact indica parent remains a subject of debate among cannabis historians. Some sources suggest it may be a Northern Lights or Afghani variety, while others point to a Skunk #1 cross.
The strain is characterized by its tall, lanky sativa structure with dense, elongated buds that are typically light to medium green in color with occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures. The flowers are heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature vibrant orange pistils. The leaves are typically narrow and sativa-like, reflecting its genetic heritage. Nevil's Wreck is known for its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, spicy notes with citrus undertones.
Nevil's Wreck gained popularity among cannabis connoisseurs for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain is considered a connoisseur variety rather than a commercial mass-market product, with limited availability compared to more mainstream strains. Its name pays homage to Neville Schoenmaker's significant contributions to modern cannabis breeding, particularly his work in stabilizing and preserving classic landrace genetics while creating new hybrid varieties.

Nevil's Wreck Strain Growing Information
Nevil's Wreck is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for experienced growers. The plants typically have a flowering time of 9-11 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain tends to grow tall, often reaching 150-200 cm indoors and even taller outdoors, requiring adequate vertical space or training techniques like topping and LST (low-stress training).
Indoor yields are typically moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant in suitable climates. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires careful attention to humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to fungal issues. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting sensitivity to overfeeding.
The strain responds well to SCROG (screen of green) and SOG (sea of green) techniques to maximize yield and manage height. Some phenotypes may exhibit slight variations in growth patterns and flowering times, reflecting the genetic diversity of its parent strains.
