Can we get this thread a little action again. First off, after reading this thread again, I sound like an idiot. Haha sorry, was a little excited. Next, I didnt get the Chem 91'. I got the Original D aka Headband. So I was not getting the Chem 91', it was the Headband. I've got her in my possetion now. I appreciate all the people who previously stopped by and dropped there info on the cut. So I'll ask again if you all can drop by and lay a little knowledge down about the Headband.

ok jiggasouza....since you asked nicely...

nugjar_mcdready : if grown right it will make your head feel like its in a vice

this is a perfect descript McDready...ala "Headband"...not cause its related to tennis, disco or jogging......its damn fine herb....

I'd say its a true pure clean Diesel...if its the Headband (loompas cut) I know of and run....
707 is not the HBand.....
91ChemD was not the same.....Chem4 was not...its not like any OG beside basic form comparison....nor SourD type in Sour tones..
It can be lanky or a bit more compact pending method/PH range and feed..Buds are always Rock Hard and Heavy reaking of Pure Diesel.....not Chem...
Have no idea what any of the others are about...

other Headband thread......

Sick! Thanks for stopping by FOE20, I'm gonna take some pics within the next day or two so we can compare. I dont really have any idea if its loompas cut but it is from New York, from a friend in Maui. It looks similar to all the pics I seen but not exactly identical. I figure its because plants change from grower to grower. But check back in a couple to see what u think about my cut.

K, its been a while but i know i have the Original Diesel cut, the underdawg daywrecker headband cut. got some pics check it out. all my previous posts are confusing but here she is...
ORIGINAL DIESEL

Ive been learing about her for a while by just observing, but she doesnt like to be root bound. she grows totally different, she gets skinier fingers on the leaves and gets a little stunted. she likes a lot of room for her roots and she gets a lot fatter leaves. as you can seen in the veg pics, she just got trans a couple days before pics and is comming back around. and in flower she usually stacks way fatter colas but i threw her out the day i took cuts off her so she dont get too stacked because its raining like crazy over here and she cant handle the rain. she is also extremely root bound and needs water every two days even though its so wet. i havent been taking care of her but the next batch of cuts...its on. the smell in veg is unmistakable. smells like lemon limey exhausty. hard to say exactly. but there she is. please drop some posts and let me know any info on this lady or q's.

ha good to hear that there quite similar. whenever you can, throw up some pics. my pic of the budding one was not a very good specimen either. it wasnt full hammering when i threw her out and she still aint getting too much love. this next batch is about ready and im just getting um full fireing before i flip um. then there gonna get a bunch of love during the flower. i think this is one of the most excited ive been in a long time for this next run. these are less than a week later than the earlier pics i posted.

The burgundy stems are trademark of true HeadBand.
Lucky to get 4 beans from med sack in 08'.

I usually don't like indicas very much but this stuff is good. Picked up a seeded eighth of headband from a dispensary it's some of the strongest weed i've ever had. Makes me go to bed. Will be growing the seeds and crossing with flo if I get any good males.

I've read every thread I could find on the Headbands. Can anyone confirm this Headband as "Daywrecker / Underdawg"? Or does she look more like the 707 Headband? She stretches similar to Gorilla Glue 4 and is the tallest plant in the grow besides a sativa that I got. She grows fast and can really bush out by herself.

She completely stanks of Sour-Diesel-Fuel. She's easily the smelliest plant in the house. I don't think I smell any Skunk in there and I also don't smell Pine Sole. Kind of hurts your nose smelling. It reminds me of the best Sour Diesel that I've ever had in 2005 from Western Mass.

This cut came to me as the Daywrecker cut but I always want to confirm things because you never do know. Any information that anyone can give me, I'd love to hear. She's my favorite plant in the grow right now out of 17 strains. I didn't even do her justice this grow and I still can't wait to smoke her. I chopped her at 77 days.

Day 53 Flower:

Day 76 Flower
She got a little stressed after day 53 and was in a small 1.5 Gallon Pot and produced over 3oz. I probably cut the nutes a little too early as well. She was also very cold at times with room temps in the 40's F range so please take that into account with how she's slightly purple. This was the first run of her. She's definitely a good yielder.
