Lucky Herbals NEW Batch Review!! (High Octane & GMD)

by Greyson6ix
The owner of Lucky Herbals (super chill, cool dude) sent me samples of some of their new batches “ High Octane 092220HO” and “Green Maeng Da 090920GMD” and mannn.
First off, this is honestly probably the strongest kratom I’ve got from him so far. Definitely the strongest Green Maeng Da he’s had yet IMO (my favorite strain). The high octane is a white strain and I expected SOME jitteriness but there was none. It’s definitely going to be one of my favorite strains. Looking forward to getting a big bag. I’ve also done a review of Lucky Herbals overall if you want to check that out too! Reviews a lot of strains. But so far, these are DEFINITELY the most potent strains at LH!!

Awesome review Lucky herbals has always had very consistent kratom for me always top notch stuff. Now saying this is the most potent stuff you have received from LH makes me really excited to order from him again which I need to do soon. LH has been a long time favorite around here and it's for a very good reason probably one of the most consistent vendors I have found.

Yes! The green Maeng da is awesome!
Everything Lucky has is good. I’m enjoying the white Hulu. Still need to try the yellow Maeng da and white Maeng da. I like to give each one a few tries before trying the next one. I need that high octane!! I love faster strains and this seems to fit that description

071720 GMD was sleepy for me, but helped with what I needed it for. Going to text you so we can remedy the situation!

WHOA! The High Octane batch is definitely worthy of it's name. Great energy and focus without jitters or anxiety.
I've been laying off kratom powder for the past couple of months only enjoying crushed leaf tea once or twice a week. Im battling significant fatigue due to some recent, unrelated health challenges. When I noticed this batch listed on the LH website, I had to give it a shot. It did not disappoint. Felt a little bit like my old self with good focus and some motivation for about 3 hours.
I'll give it a couple more tries and post a review on this and a few other batches soon. Good stuff!

Check out cordyceps militaris for fatigue. I suffer from pretty bad "chronic fatigue" or whatever you want to call it. I believe kratom and stimulants to make this worse over long periods they only seem to help short term especially stimulants. I recently have been experimenting with different mushrooms/mycelium for health benefits, cordyceps being one of them. Since I've started supplementing cordyceps my fatigue has been way less noticeable in fact I'm having a lot more motivation and energy to do stuff I have been putting off for years.

Thanks for the recommendations. The fatigue i am referring to is from chemotherapy and late stage cancer. I have heavy duty prescriptions for the fatigue if needed but i prefer the milder Kratom effects when i can muster it. It doesn't change my personally or affect my nerves as much as the RX. None the less, thanks and ill look into them.

Oh wow I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you well in your recovery, no one deserves to suffer from cancer. It's great that kratom can provide some relief and possible medical benefits for you I can't even begin to imagine what you may be going through.

Thank you Mitragy9, Jabro70 & SaintsWillConquer! The thoughts and prayers are felt. I appreciate the good vibes and support sent my way.
I'm a fighter. Just diagnosed at the end of July and I'm now working with the #1 hospital for Cancer research and treatment in the world. There are too many stories out there of people like me who were given months to live but turn it around and prove the doctors wrong. There are tons of resources out there now, alternative natural therapies and new success stories everyday. Cancer doesn't know who its messin with.
On a lighter note..... I received 4 batches from Lucky and every one of them are above average to excellent. The Green Maeng Da is on the faster end of the spectrum this time and has excellent mood lift along with stimulation. I have 5 different batches of Lucky's GMD from over the past year and this is the best of the GMD batches so far. 9/10
I already mentioned that the High Octane is fantastic for energy and motivation. This is my favorite of the 4 for those reasons. Amazing energetic batch! 9.5/10 (almost a 10. I reorderd)
The White Devil provided me with focus and concentration for hours. Another hit. A great blender also. Mixed it with a small bit of TFH Rocket Red that i had left and truly enjoyed it. 8.5/10
The White Maeng Da is very uplifting and provides a solid mood lift with some energy for me. 8.5/10.
I havent been supplementing with Kratom powder since July. Kept things pretty clear and basic for my first round of chemo (which ended a couple of weeks ago). However, I would occasionally brew up some TFH crushed leaf tea (which I will also review later in a separate post) on a Friday and/or Saturday evening. So far, discontinuing the powder doesn't seem to have made any difference in my blood panels (taken weekly). Consequently, its all about quality of life for me now and these new batches from Lucky's certainly have helped to improve it just a bit once or twice a day.
My serving size is between 2 to 3 grams in order to focus on the uplifting properties of the leaf. I also pour near boiling water on it to help sanitize the powder before consuming. Can't be too careful with a compromised immune system.
I believe Lucky's is closed this weekend but I recommend jumping on at least a couple of these batches pretty fast. I doubt they will last long.
Cheers!

Has anyone had their account deleted from Lucky?? It's now saying my account username and email is invalid. Damn, I really wanted to order. It's been a while since I have ordered from lucky but I logged in like a month ago. Now it seems my account is gone
Edit: Lucky got back to me super quick it seems there was an unintentional error that resulted in some accounts being lost. If this happens to you just use the contact form and fill out another member application. Props to Lucky for the insanely quick response.

^^^ glad you got ur account back...if there is one thing besides kratom Lucky's should be known for, its customer service/"making it right". On mentioning the july batch of GMD being a bit incompatible with me, they were very quick and eager to correct this (which isnt even a mistake!) So, I placed an order to try some of the new reds and will have a chance to try the new GMD thanks to above-and-beyond customer service/retention policies.

Interesting. The July GMD didn't sit quite right for me either. Everyone was raving at the time so I was confused. Definitely potent stuff, but like you said didn't seem compatible. People were loving it so I sold it in the trading post no problem.
I really like the Red Horn. And yes, great customer service

I also picked up a small bag of the July GMD. It certainly hit me differently than prior Lucky GMD batches. In my experience, Lucky's prior GMD had a excellent mood lift with good stimulation and happy vibes. I was only able to try the July GMD once and it was certainly slower and not as mood lifting but I didnt get a chance to tweak the serving size. I chalked it up to serving size but I may revisit.
This Sept batch is much better in my opinion. In fact, it is my favorite Lucky's GMD to date. Mood lifting and stimulating which is exactly what I need currently.

This is cool to hear just ordered this new batch of GMD and that's what I'm looking for as well. Lots of kratom I've been getting lately has either been way to fast or way to slow when all I want something somewhere in the middle or maybe slightly on the slower side.

For me, the 090920 batch of GMD is still as clear headed and focused as most our best GMDs, but more energy for sure. Not an over the edge, jittery energy, just strong and smooth.

Yes!! These new strains are honestly next level. And that’s coming from someone with a high tolerance. 10 grams is my usual dose and 6 of high octane was more than enough lol. I highly recommend both new batches

If you like high octane then you need to order it ASAP upon arrival. It is the perfect white. It’s the GMD or Red Bali of whites. My friends even agree it’s great. I let them try a tad bit

I ordered red Bali. My favorite reds are red Maeng Da and Bali, depends on what you want to do that day. But this batch of Bali is very sedating and perfect for pain relief and anxiety. Lasts much longer than expected too!

My order arrived today and I always check out the leaf just how it looks/smells.....the second I opened and smelled the red bali I knew it was a face-melter and would likely put my butt down.
Stoked to try all these.......the Wild R Sumatra is very awesome. Lovely afternoon full-body red with the perfet amount of stress-relief and calmness. I am just snuggling my pups and riding this wave. I have a full day of Lucky's (and then some) to sample this week! Will post full reviews here once I get em all tried

Thank you, BD9! I appreciate the support. I cannot even begin to imagine going through this without a guitar in my hands and in my heart.
I am floored by large number of great friends/musicians who are reaching out to me and are now helping me upon hearing the news. Unfortunately, I had no idea how many people I had touched and influenced in such a profound way through teaching and playing the guitar until now. Its inspirational. Music is a source and playing music is therapeutic.

Add me to the list. You're in my thoughts and prayers. I totally get the fatigue! I underwent
40 radiation treatments for prostate cancer a few years back and it put me on the couch for
almost two years. (They told me I'd have my energy back in a month or so!) The combination
of radiation and taking an opiate pain reliever totally wore me out! Kratom saved the day!
I'm a product of the 60's and 70's and the music was magic. I remember driving 65 miles
to grab Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti because it was going to be another month before the
local record shop was going to have it. I got home and it was scratched!

Jumped in
the car and drove another 65 miles, got home and it was scratched too!

The last time I made
them check it for me before heading home!

Anytime that Floyd, Zeppelin, Yes, Tull etc.
had a new album release, it was a special "event" for me and a few of my friends. I've never
lost that love for music!
Best wishes, my friend!

Just received my order from lucky I just took the newest batch(090920) of green hulu and wow it's got amazing moodlift very very nice leaf. Huge surge of happiness and motivation will try the GMD tomorrow but if it's anything like this green hulu it's going to be amazing. Lucky is hitting it out of the park with these new batches.
