otis' vertical experiments and other projects

[otis33]

so, I just found mites in my main veg room... the room that houses all my strains. I know there is a sticky and I've read a good bit about it in preparation for this day as I knew it would come, but any advice would be appreciated. I had a very minor infestation with my first clones 18 months ago. washed them off with mitey wash and haven't seen them till now. I still have a big jug of mighty wash, but I'm wanting to knock these fuckers out before I can flower anything from this room. I've read good things about floramite, but have also read that a combonation of things works best so I would appreciate anyone who wants to share thier treatment regimen with me

TetraSan miticide
&
floramite
then
mitey wash

if you are willing to go those heavy duty chemical routes avid works as well...

budshots looking juicy & dense, good job otis.

2 applications of Forbid 4F, each a week apart, and you won't have mites anymore...

 

[otis33]

thanks for the input, my arsenal is stocked and I'm in the process of destroying these mites. I've kind of been relaxing and enjoying the fruits of my labor. the rental property is empty at the moment. I built this massive ppk over there but am trying to make sure my environment is perfect before loading it up. now I've got mites on most of the 18 plants that are earmarked for that project, so now I want to make sure they eradicated so I don't infest my other basement. they don't seem to be in the flower room at home, which is full on the stacked donut side:

I've also been popping a bunch of seeds lately:

I also have some sour bubble, sour boggle, chem Jack, and a cross a friend made of juicy fruit and querkle.

I was given a couple of what I was told was headband cuts sourced out of the Detroit area. I don't know if they are what I was told, but whatever they are they are growing buds as big and dense as tall boys:

I have enough Scott's og to load up my home base ppk donut, but I also have wifi and headband. I'm going to have to make a decision, I can't really wait to harvest to choose. well, I hope those of you in the states had a good fourth of July

Hey Otis.....I know 1 thing , I`d keep that headband in the rotations even if it`s NOT headband....that bitch looks bad.....and yessir.....

I`ve STILL got a smoked meat and seafood hangover from yesterday`s festivities , and leftovers will be even better for the next several days , so thanks for the well wishes.....

Glad things are workin out for yas Bro.....

Peace....DHF...........

hey man like DHF said that supposed headband looks great! perfect for production it seems! how does the wifi and scotts compare to the headband in growth? if they don't match up just load up that headband!

 

[otis33]

yes, it looks like the" headband" is killin it as far as growth and swellage... let's hope the quality is at least on par with everything else. I averaged six zips/ plant on that deep strawberry diesel ppk grow, I may hit a gpw in the ppks with this cut. the market here is such that I can get top dollar regardless, but I take pride in putting out the best possible product. the prices here make it possible to sacrifice a little yield for quality. I'm excited to see if the sour bubble lives up to the reputation. thanks for stopping in guys.

 

[DHF]

Quality over quantity EVERY time O.....When yas get both then that`s when yas`re dialed with each and every strain hoonin and producin............

Hope things continue to improve in your garden Bro.....

Peace.....Freds..........

 

[otis33]

the top off the donut stacks is getting close, I'm beginning to flush the wifi and the Scott's og.

I live in a similar area.. its pretty nice, just like you said.... but I still like to put out the best product as well.. it is what I smoke too

Sb can achieve decent yields when dialed.. the fast flowering time can even it out as well.. great smoke.. would be great to cross with your fav sativa...

my keeper has crazy stretch with far spaced apart buds that are almost wider than they are tall.. dense as hell.. and a sorta spoiled milk/hashy/little fruity smell... every female I had was keeper material though.. I am confident you will find something you like.. gl on the hunt

whatever that headband is it looks super chunky !!! I would do at least one monocrop run with her before letting her go... she looks like a record breaker

Here's some Headband @ 6 weeks. These are only under a 400w, but I think you have something different. Looks nice w/e it is.

 

[otis33]

I will be thinking of something else to call it bc it is different than the descriptions and pics that I've seen of headband. I've never got to name one before. I will be keeping it bc a. it yields like nothing else I have, and b. my wife likes it. it has an energetic uplifting high she's been smoking bowls and cleaning out the basement all day.

my god but that sounds like the perfect strain to me. If i still had a wife i would be flying over to wherever the hell you are and taking a cut
