Floyd Mayweather Jr. insists he is the A-side. In the same manner, consumers can think of the A-Train as being on the A-side of the cannabis world.
Compared to many other strains, it seems that the A-Train has a higher than average CBD. A simplistic way of understanding CBD is its correlation to medicinal benefits.
Besides attracting medical cannabis users, there are plenty of reasons for recreational users to seek out this strain.
The A-Train strain delivers a perfect balance of mind and body high that among its several benefits, one is an increase in libido.
Before one jumps the gun and thinks of it as a means to get laid, remember that this claim is anecdotal.
Before becoming a part of the A-team, one must first prove itself worthy. For a cannabis strain, it begins with its genetic lineage.
In this regard, it does not disappoint as it comes from both a legendary and a wicked family.
Somewhere in northern Afghanistan, one strain grew and became known for its potency.
People who have used that cannabis describes the experience as mind-warping.
Thus, the legend of Mazar I Sharif was born. This strain that can induce narcotic-like effects is one of the parents of the A-Train.
In most parts of the world, trains have transported more people to their destinations than any other vehicle.
So, what happens when a train travels at great speed and loses control? Aptly named, Trainwreck surges ahead and delivers an intense Sativa effect on its users.
Like the Mazar I Sharif, it can also induce psychedelic effects.
By crossing the notorious Trainwreck with the legendary Mazar I Sharif, the making of a new legend is born.
