Oties Initial Thoughts
Decided to give Oties a try as none of my other go to vendors have been hitting for me lately. I ordered:
- Green Dragon,
- Super Green,
- White Jongkong,
- Super White Maeng Da, and
- White Elephant,
all with batch numbers ending in 070122 (if y'all need me to be more specific let me know. I think the other three digits on each number might be a product code as every one is different).
Otie also threw in a sample of Super Green Maeng Da as well, which was nice.
So far I've tried all of them at least once and several twice, but I gotta say that I'm not impressed. None of them knocked my socks off and only two - the Super Green and the Green Dragon - hit for me at all, although I had to blend each with a bit of Unicorn from Mystic Island (MIK-31-2022, nothing since that batch has been any good) to feel anything.
The others just didn't do anything for me at all.
That said, I've had a really hard time finding anything that works for me this year. It feels like all of the vendors have turned to slower strains for some reason, whereas I need the opposite. Slower strains make me feel really depressed regardless of the dose, same as with indica-leaning mj strains, but that's another topic altogether.
My point is that while Oties hasn't worked for me, your experience may be quite the opposite.

Re: Oties Initial Thoughts
You might try lowering your dose.
I did recently (from 2.5-3 grams to 1.5) and it was AMAZING. Not saying it will work for you, but it never hurts to try.

Re: Oties Initial Thoughts
I agree with Kellytoons, lower your dose. Even better, take a break if you can. If nothing is hitting, it's probably you.

Re: Oties Initial Thoughts
The White Elephant has been exceptional for me. Try blending it with a nice red or green.
