Double M Herbals | Kratom Forum

Green Maeng Da was on sale and I got a kilo for a fantastic price. My order was shipped very quickly and I was given plenty of email status updates. I got a tracking number for my order.

The kratom is very high quality and potent. I am looking forward to trying another strain when I place my next order.

Not mixing them together and making a hundred different strains out of 3 batches. Amd no b.s. claims like his stuff is the most potent or better than everyone elses.The green md was s standout for me as well.

Im refering to the mitra gaia type companies that literaly have every strain in every color. And no batch numbers. There are a couple smaller vendors that blend their own batches but are transparent and have incredible leaf. One of them is in my top 3 for sure. Some people just have fire leaf all around. My comment was made out of grief of wasting my money buying bulk crap...

Great to know, Jared. I'll take that into account. I have batch numbers on all my kilos, but I just consider them all "Lot 1" unless it's a second round of the same strain.
Like, I'm getting a new batch of green maeng da soon and that's getting labeled with "(L2)". Otherwise, if they are new strains, I just put the name on the label with no number.
Do you think my labeling strategy should change to add batch numbers, from my supplier, to the label? Or are lot numbers sufficient for differentiating different batches?

Interested in hearing your thoughts on that, if I need to revise things.

I think in absence of having alkaloid percentages listed (which I know is not the norm), I'm more inclined to order when there's a way for me to be sure I can reorder any batch that worked really well for me.

Now, that's not always necessary either. If the supplier remains the same and the vendor's mixes keep the same ratios, then that's totally fine too. But you may have to answer an email from me inquiring about that in absence of lab reports.

Ultimately, I wouldn't say not doing this harms your sales or make me assume anything negative about your product. So I guess you have to weigh what the extra work and expense would mean to your business against a nearly-impossible-to-measure benefit.

Vendors such as yourself who have good reputations here are enough for me, but I really do appreciate the lab analysis or alkaloid percentages being available since I use kratom medicinally.

Thanks for the advice! I'll start doing that ASAP. Does it go on your label, your product page, or both?

I do both the label and product page.
