GB (Galactic) - You Won't be Left Wanting
This was a nice surprise on multiple fronts.
My first purchaase, end of Feb. was an unplanned extra expense to cover a need I wasn't expecting to still have.
Newly inspired, I was on a quest for rock solid, strong. heavy or slow green satisfaction that "can not fail".
Feb. was tense for me. A tighter budget too at that point.
An offer from Galactic Botanicals came to mind. https://galactic-botanicals.com/
I compared a very-few comments with reviews on his site. Noticed a theme- something about rock solid, fresh and always potent product. Always?
These were understated, matter of fact words from self described, long time users, published over time. Just a few but one shiner re: GB's Red Hulu by someone I recognize from MeWe- whom I trust. Looking good.
All unnecessary effort though bc it was 40. bucks for a halfer, free shipping, sliced up the way I like it- The Way of 5. Why would I not try it?
A big deal to me... Different offers to fit your priority. But there's no split tax (I don't mind them if reasonable) or stiff penalty for not over buying, getting little variety.
Once it arrived, this jusk kept getting better.
The product? There's an 8 way kg on the way right now. There's that indicator.
Quality overview (an abstract):
You've been using every day for years. Ok, start with PMD for the most "rounded" experience. >> You won't be left wanting.
I've been using from the previous drop so effects I describe might not be 100% identical. I'll drop some impressions below regardless bc I'd want them.
Pay methods might matter to you. He upgraded recently. Pretty much whatever you want to use unless it's alive & pecking.
A "noting's perfect" edit: Possible lag time on invoice or response. (but shipping is here a day early) I hadn't noticed bc I kept Matt waiting for my choices. Might take a full day to get an invoice or reply bc he's at that point when you need to hire help last week.
A detail if considering: It's not an overnight competition but he sold out last time & shelves remained bare for a few weeks. Otherwise I easily recommend adding this to your 'Dex. Matt at GB will earn your attention and very likely your repeat business too.
The Goods accd to T-mato.:
Rec'd early March
PMD: Someone said "full spectrum". I get it very slow. Outstanding relief. Dose level has noticeable difference of effect in blends though. Does blend easily. Test dose- Straight up with 15% shaved off the top this took me down suddenly- in 45min flat. I do maintain responsiveness but rapid take downs are not common for me. - no wanter left behind.
Super Green- I noted "Amplified Presence". Yes, I was more there. What else? It's being in power and in control (King for a day). Comfortable, alert, interested & doing it while focused & mentally strong, making things happen. Long legs.
White Dayak- Haven't found the words yet- or completely figured it out. Definitely no rough edges but it's fast. I've gotten a crazy good surge of energetic good feelz from it. As I reduce the number of stuff I mix with, I'll clarify with an edit.
Gold Malay- Different kind of gold. This one is fast for me- highly alert, only blended w/ small amts so far. (tbh- I have a blend problem) Not U4ork this way but it might make you partially disappear- like in Legend of Numm Bing. I expect it's different using more so that's ahead of me but it's pretty amped up the way I catch it now.
Green Dayak: moderate or a bit faster, smooth and significant relief. Doesn't make me sleepy or slow down at all. (edit- I forgot: Also legs of length. (lasts longer than avg., as does Labai, SG, PMD that I"ve notices so far)
Green Labai- watch out! I test dosed this at 1.5gm (1.75 is my reliable target dose). Awesome but I gotta use less than that. I was heading out but had to stop 45min for a time-out. A little sweat. Motionless like an alligator but a little greener. Half an hour then back to awesome as fast as that storm came in. Also long legos. My favourite is going to last a long time! The one I should have ordered but didn't. I got it regardless.
Super Red - Unlike other SR's I've had, this one is a substantial red- can support sleep for me easily or make a mix very relaxing and pleasant. This should challenge anyones "fermentation bias" It's fermented. It's as potent as any red I have but more relaxing. Something that some green-reds (unfinished reds) lack imo but if sceptical ask for non firm's so you don't mess up your own experiece with a worry or pre-conclusion. (I know some dark reds are weak. This one is not.)
Cosmic Dayak - Evening best for me, not sedating but kind of sleepy euphoric. It's Green,white & red dayak combined. Came as a no-tease ample sample.

The New Stuff that I rec'd two days ago Updating this page when I have clear impressions
Red MD I used a small amount mixed in. It held it's own - the only red I used. Quite Heavy / dreamy aspect to my burn. It's a nice green color with a very strong smell- a familiar pungent. Another heavyweight alongside the PMD.
Green Elephant - Needs a retake. Enjoyed it by itself but it's faster - with warmth & pleasant feels. Very slow onset and gradual. Faster yet also warm glow- seemned like increased circulation & slightly faster pulse which I can sense passively. A pleasant thing. Downside is likely temporary & specific to me at this time: A vibrant "drive" kept starting and then vanishing so on and off not quite getting me there. Need to run at a different time.
[used again ~ 20% in a blend that was great & above avg. I think the word is "refresh" & it's bright. Time will tell]
Green Jong Kong * * * * * Excellent!! imo This is the other side of Grn Dayak which holds some weight, making it smooth and quite strong on relief. PMD when it's been raw and satisfaction is hard to get. I typically use faster stuff (like this Grn JK), but failing to get benefits from 2 products sent by a different but popular newish source, I worried that hollow leaf might be the new "fast green" going around. It's Not. This is the Goods. This Grn JK is the ideal Fast green imo. Not too much but it's strong, repels shadows, undeniably energetic, while it moved perspective to a healthy, positive place. This held on. Most Grn JK's I have lean slow, highlighting mood. All useful. This lifted me up while faster, more "alive". Not "high spec", "hollow" or "lopsided". I'm sure that the time / conditions contribute to impressions. Well yesterday evening this was the brightest star for me - best I've had over the past year. The magic has not been lost.
We have a lot of great resources. This one is standing out to me. Very competitive. He knows how to succeed - by prioritizing in right order. First up- Catering to what is most important to you and making it painless. That is good for everyone involved.

Re: GB - You Won't be Left Wanting
Wow, this is a glowing review. I just ordered yesterday but still haven't gotten my invoice. How long does it usually take for the invoice to come through?

Re: GB - You Won't be Left Wanting
I ordered after midnight / "wee hours" on the 17th. He replied at 10:17 that same day but maybe as long as 18hrs later? I just checked, hadn't even realized there was a lag bc I was busy too. It took me four days to respond to his request for choices. I kept putting it aside until I wasn't rushed (which was never). (here on I choose Before placing order) I finally responded after I got a "Your shipment # xxxx is on the way" notice.Dinkle-berg wrote: ↑Mon Apr 26, 2021 9:35 am Wow, this is a glowing review.

So you know I hit him up that instant. (he hadn't sent a random selection. He was helping me with a nudge which I suspected Lol).
I was just about to contact him (right now) to inform that the package is early today- not delayed like he thought it would be. -has been asking for feedback Sooo ..I'm letting him know your waiting for invoice too although he'll probably get to you first before reading my email.
So nothing's perfect and I'm not surprised bc I got the feeling his business is having growing pains. Inevitable. We talked a lot. He mentioned increased traffic, business and needing to hire help.
Help Wanted (so I've heard in passing)
Anyone near Orange Tx available for hire to help w/ shipping & order processing?
If so, contact Matt to discuss. https://galactic-botanicals.com
disclaimer- I did NOT have permission to post a help wanted notice so be smooth and don't "come AT him" lol.
