Re: sosa march 1st batch review
Is f5 quicker than f11? F11 is great but a bit "heavy" for my personal needs. I hear the green bone batches were 1 slower, 1 mid, and 1 fast green. Not entirely sure of the red. F11 is like a heavier red Thai to me, beautiful when blended well! (Ben did say it was the same red Thai batch as a year ago; the f11). And it feels/smells very very similar... So much to learn!KurtisCards wrote:The red Sumatra was too fast for you? Is your agus red the f5?

I might edit my red indo/horn experience I'm more leaning toward red horn these days. weird certain strains grow on ya. whats a TKO strain?
sosa has always been super quick to respond for me. i put in an order for a split kilo and requested 1 of the wrong strains. hoping sosa is willing to work with me on this but ill keep every1 posted.

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
anyone compare the regular strains to the same string dried strains? like if there is a red bali normal and a red bali string dried, compare to see which is better or worse or if they are actually very similar? look at color, consistency and potency ? i will when i place an order but im curious about if the string dried is actually any different , or even really string dried ya know. i always think of ways to convince people to CHOOSE a higher price and that seems like a good way to do it. not saying he is, but it would be a neat way to have people choose a higher price and you could just send the same stuff you would either way. this is all speculation , it is not based on any opinion or fact, just a though

The red banjar is a TKO for me. When it came in the mail I had to try it out, was around 3PM, ended up taking an unexpected nap that afternoon. Now I just use it before bed, although today I did get a little daring and blended with it to good effects.withoutbliss wrote:ha red indo/horn are both TKOs fo me too no doubt. which is why i love emacejestyr15 wrote:TKO aka Total Knock Out hahahawithoutbliss wrote:I might edit my red indo/horn experience I'm more leaning toward red horn these days. weird certain strains grow on ya. whats a TKO strain?

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
Every considered maybe just straining/filtering it then?? I mean that's a much better option then just not taking strains you actually enjoy other than that small issue. Idk if it we're me I'd hate to have a good number of strains that I just don't take for an easily avoidable reason.MethMeowth wrote:Loving a majority of them. Can't ingest much sand i get sick.

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
Hey could you enlighten me on straining/filtering. I have some strains (not SOSA) that are just laying dormant because they don't do much for me, sometimes I'll freeze and that works, but how could I filter them??acejestyr15 wrote:MethMeowth wrote:acejestyr15 wrote:.

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
I don't personally filter/strain at all and haven't done any research on it but here a link to a post made not too long ago by BallzDeep and he uses this method regularly I believe and has done some research and provided someone else's from a reddit link as well....

Edit: May I ask why you're here on a forum dedicated to taking kratom, making fun of people taking kratom? Just seems misguided. There are plenty of other places to shitpost.

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
Dude.... You and CatfatherB should just quit while you're ahead. I said my piece and now I'm done with this ignorant idiot. I appreciate that we share the same stance on this issues but there's no getting thru to, changing, reasoning, nor even helping a person like MethMeowth... Someone who obviously has no life, no friends, most likely some serious mental issues maybe even a sociopath, and a "heroin fiend sister" most likely meaning sister/wife or kissing cousin at least I'd be willing to bet. Just give it a rest we all know what the deal is in all reality here, it's a shame this thread has been hijacked with this crap as much as it has already!!beathathappening wrote:Again, just wow.CatfatherB wrote:"my heroin friend sister" ? Are we supposed to know this person from your extensive and legendary input on whatever kratom forum you educated your peers?![]()
How dare we request evidence from such a respected and informative.........Oh MOTHERFUCK THAT SHIT!!!!
Go wash your shit with hot water and soap!!

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
I mostly agree, but there ought to be someone there to call bullshit. It's fine to sit on the sidelines if that's your preference, but let me/us call someone out if it's seen fit. I do agree though that this particular thread is not the place to have this sort of personal argument. Ideally we should make a new SOSA thread and let this one die, but something tells me MethMeowth will be back with a fresh new set of hot takes.

Re: sosa march 1st batch review
Believe me not at all just saying let it fly! I made an effort to first make a suggestion and help they guy.... And then when he got nasty with you guys and myself as well I also then called em out and made my frustration known, and this is where we landed hahaha. Not trying to tell you guys how to handle things just pointing out an observations and making a suggestion. I can't continue to go at someone that's a lost cause is how I look at it is all. Plus like I said, I don't wanna Bogart this SOSA thread especially since I'm really liking SOSA right now!beathappening wrote:I mostly agree, but there ought to be someone there to call bullshit.
