Spirit Train
Spirit Train Strain Overview
Spirit Train is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that has gained attention among connoisseurs for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. The strain's exact origins remain somewhat obscure, with limited documentation available about its development history. What is known suggests it emerged from boutique breeding circles in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the early 2010s, though specific details about its creation timeline are not widely recorded.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by deep green foliage interspersed with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The nugs often display a compact, conical structure with occasional purple hues that may appear under certain growing conditions, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase.
Spirit Train is noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines earthy, herbal notes with subtle fruity undertones. The strain's name appears to reference both its cerebral effects and the smooth, gradual onset that users describe as a 'journey' rather than an abrupt experience. While not among the most commercially widespread strains, Spirit Train has maintained a dedicated following among enthusiasts who appreciate its balanced hybrid characteristics and nuanced effects.

Spirit Train Strain Growing Information
Spirit Train is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it prefers a controlled indoor environment where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to reach medium height, typically staying between 100-150 cm indoors but potentially growing taller outdoors. Spirit Train responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yield and manage height.
Special considerations include maintaining stable environmental conditions, as the strain can be somewhat sensitive to fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Adequate airflow is important to prevent mold in the dense buds. The plants benefit from a balanced nutrient regimen and may show nutrient sensitivity if overfed. Some phenotypes may display purple coloration when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during the final weeks of flowering.
