CSI Trainwreck vs Arcata Trainwreck (Santa Cruz Goat Farm)

Does anyone know any lore, or have experience growing both the CSI Trainwreck S1's and the Arcata Trainwreck S1's that Santa Cruz Goat Farm has?

Curious about what the differences might be between them. Both are supposed to be legit and I believe they both are, but there's always going to be differences.

Once again, mind blowingly generous and well curated to boot. What an awesome dude to bless his customers this way.

I'd originally wanted to order Durban Poison and Trainwreck separately, but they were out of stock when I ordered, so I went with Terpinolene Machine. I am genuinely stoked to try the Terpinolene Machine though, I will probably actually run that first because I am curious.

Sungrown, organic Trainwreck was my intro to herb 20 ish years ago during an acute injury, and I can genuinely say that it saved my life. I have never grown it myself, and haven't seen any decent consumer-level sources of it in a very long time, so I am looking forward to revisiting this old friend and growing her properly.

Next will be Strawberry Cough, when it comes back in stock. He said July-August he hopes to restock that.

For those wondering, order was placed on June 9, I mailed the money the next day, didn't keep track of anything after that. Seeds were delivered 6/29.

anyone else having trouble getting their Indian Landrace Exchange order from earlier in the month?

first time ordering from them, and never heard anything bad, so maybe this is par for the course and I need to trust the process, but I am growing concerned. Has anyone else had similar issues? Do I need to just chill out, or stay on this?

I made a purchase in May, they said it would ship in June. June 13th looked like it would be delivered, so I went and picked it up from the post office and immediately saw something was wrong, the package had been sent in a UPS bubble mailer and was covered in red tape and green stickers that said "repack".

No seeds in the package. Awesome.

I emailed them right away, heard back the next day and they said they'd send replacement seeds and send a new tracking number within 48-72 hours. Good news! But then no word back after 72 hours. I emailed again to check in, this time they said they'd send tracking when they had it.

That was last Wednesday, and it is now Monday, silence. It's been 9 days since I first reached out. I'm trying not to be a nag and a pain in the ass but after 9 days I am starting to get worried. Is this pretty unusual or typical or what?

Obligatory what I ordered vs What I got (plus something new)

Hi guys, longtime lurker, thought I'd finally make a post since I got a recent order today and almost cried, I was so blown away by what came with it.

I know Nspecta is known for generosity but I was also blown away by how incredibly thoughtful and practical the freebie selections were.

Money is tight right now so I am just placing a small order here and there as I am able with different breeders, to try to build up a good foundation for being indefinitely on my own where genetics are concerned, BEFORE everyone really starts panic buying and all the stuff I want is sold out, so I explained that I am new to breeding, strictly outdoor, and my microclimate is difficult and mold prone. Also mentioned I like colorful plants, landraces, and sweeter/fruitier terp profiles.

Ordered one pack of Mendo Purps, and got all this.

Bubblegum crosses for mold resilience, and Hindu Kush & Pakistani Chitral crosses for landrace influence, and all look to be likely to have a lot of color and sweet terps. All wishlist boxes checked, and all gifts. I was floored.

I am actually the most excited about the Indigo Cherry Drops, which I hadn't heard of until I opened my package. This is one of two orders I have in the pipes with CSI at the moment, I am already stoked and overwhelmed with great options for next year's outdoor season. Cannot wait to pop some of these, some are being banked in the back of the fridge for posterity but the Indigo Cherry Drops are definitely the first things I am popping in the spring.

Thanks for all the posts guys, I really enjoy reading them

Cheers
