Truckin'
Also known as: Truckin
Truckin' Strain Overview
Truckin' is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to create a versatile cultivar with reliable effects and robust growth characteristics. While its exact genetic origins are somewhat debated within cannabis cultivation circles, it is generally accepted to be a carefully selected cross between established parent strains, resulting in a plant that exhibits both indica and sativa qualities in roughly equal measure.
The strain's name references both its steady, consistent effects and its reputation among growers as a reliable producer. Truckin' plants typically develop dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring deep green foliage often accented by purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are usually medium to large in size with a thick coating of trichomes that gives them a frosty appearance. The strain has gained particular popularity among home growers and small-scale cultivators due to its manageable growth patterns and consistent performance.
Notable features of Truckin' include its complex aromatic profile and balanced effects that make it suitable for various times of day. The strain has maintained a consistent presence in regional cannabis markets, particularly in legal states on the West Coast, though it has not achieved the widespread commercial distribution of some more famous hybrid varieties. Its relative stability and predictable characteristics have made it a favorite among cultivators who value consistency over novelty.

Truckin' Strain Growing Information
Truckin' is considered a moderately easy 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 to late October outdoors. Indoor yields average 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments, though it thrives in temperate climates with consistent sunlight. Plants usually reach a medium height of 4-6 feet, making them manageable for most growing spaces. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperatures during flowering to encourage color development and providing adequate support for branches during late flowering due to dense bud development. The strain shows good resistance to common molds and pests.
