The 818 Headband by Cali Connection is a beast of a plant in the garden. She can take heavy feedings like a champ, and will completely frost out in the first three weeks of flower. She stretches quite a lot once put into flower(almost doubled in height), and will also get very bushy during the first 4 weeks of flower. She smells of straight sour diesel from early veg and on, and completely overpowers everything else in the flower room aroma wise. I wasn't completely satisfied with the yield but I think that has to do with them being in 3 gallon pots for a total of 13 weeks, so I think they may have suffered from root bound slightly, since I didn't incorporate any enzymes to breakdown the old root material. All in all I'm very happy with her and she will be in my garden for quite a while.

As for as the quality of the finished buds, the 818 Headband is extremely strong and definitely settles behind the eyes leaving you feeling very sedated, with a nice head high. The smell is the same as it was while in the garden extremely strong sour diesel smell. People can smell it from 10-20ft away while carrying it in my jacket pocket, even heard someone making comments about a strong weeds smell when I was pumping my gas the other day. I use Drip Clean so almost all of my strains come out smooth, but the headband seems to numb the back of your throat a bit. This strain is of amazing quality and I highly recommend it for anyone who loves OG Kush's and Diesel strains.
