Motark review

[Celestial-Oceanic]

So...one day I'm checking my email and see an old name I hadn't heard in awhile...Motark. Truly OG status among vendors, he was well known for quality and consistency paired with value that was hard to beat. He flew under a lot of peoples radar due to only carrying a dozen or so varieties, of only the most basic names.

I must admit, I'm a bit disappointed that the legendary "white vein" and "red vein" varieties aren't there, but the majority of his former offerings are, suggesting he's still using VLNT a supplier. I played it safe and purchased a 100g bag of GMD and a 100g bag of Red Elephant, as those are usually safe bets with vendors across the board.

My order was shipped quickly, and arrived as expected. One minor complaint was the absence of samples, despite a request for one, and other reviews stating they had received samples. On one hand, its not a big deal at all. On the other hand, I'm an old customer, and am trying to get as firm a grasp on overall quality as possible before placing a larger order, and would have loved to be able to try a one or two varieties risk free.

The GMD (02001) is everything I would expect from GMD. Its not "high spec"/white fast, but is firmly in the upper end of the middle spectrum. Decent energy with excellent mood lift and fairly long duration. There's really not much more one can ask for. It could easily be labeled as " premium", and no one would dispute it. It plays well with others...after three initial standalone burns, I used it as a base for my blends, and found the results outstanding. Potent whites added zap, while adding a nice, more mid spec red made for a great evening burn.

The Red Elephant (04001) is again what I would expect to see from this type of leaf. One look at the color, and its obvious there was fermentation going on, though the taste and smell dont scream bentaungie. Its actually almost beautiful in color, quite vivid and deep. Effects are quite heavy/"low spec", with relaxation, calming, and pain killing at the forefront. Sleep comes easy, though its not super sedating. Overall its a nice night time leaf.

The grind on both varieties is an extremely fine "powdered sugar" grind that almost dissolves during T&W. Although the sample size is small, quality is definitely here, as if he never left, so I feel confident that he's still working with VLNT. Hopefully this means some Gold Bali as well as White Vein and Red Vein in the future.

So...Motark is back. Kinda like he never left. Outside of me bitching about a lack of samples, i have zero complaints. I've also placed another order, and will report back when they've been given a fair shake.

Motark's Green Hulu Kapuas is excellent. I picked up 4 strains, GHK, G. Malay, RMD and R. Borneo) and ive tried 3 so far. All 3 are very good if not great. The GHK is definitely my favorite and the G. Malay is almost as good. The GHK is more energetic and hits quickly. The G. Malay is also energetic but winds up slowly over an hour and a half and has excellent legs. The R. Borneo is relaxing but not sedative. Very good evening strain. I'm looking forward to trying the RMD tonight.

I had read about Motark for years. I can't believe I waited this long to finally try it. Excellent leaf! I've already re-uped and will be getting the GMD as well.

The green Malay and green elephant are from a new supplier. In another words there is not alot is what I got from our conversation. They are both great the green elephant stands out between the two. Red elephant is from his old supplier not that great but better than most suppliers right now most are offloading there rainy season junk. Its like kratom OG without the wait! Have more green elephant on the way. Funny thing is hes not on the sacred list. But ofcourse alot of great vendors didn't make it .the vendors list here is great but its not the holy grail of vendors dont just limit to the list you will miss out on alot of good leaf .

Nice to know the Green Elephant is up to standards, as I have a little ordered, along with some RMD and White Hulu.

In regards to the "sacred list", I think Ballz requires at least three months activity with no outstanding negative reviews. I'm not sure he's been back three months, and my review is really the first "formal" review here, so I'm not sure he qualifies. Rest assured, he will be added in due time.

Yeah, he's always been a favorite of mine. Not flashy, doesn't carry all the flavor of the week "strains", but his strength has always been consistency. Of course, as a new batch is brought in its almost certainly different, but I struggle to think of a time when the consensus opinion of anything he sold was remotely negative.

The GMD is pretty nice. If I didn't have a small stockpile of BB's PMD 12 & 14, I'd be grabbing a bit more of it. I'm looking forward to the Green Elephant and White Hulu, as I need to restock my fast varieties and am hoping one or both will fit what I need.

I will answer a few questions because why not.

I'm in discussions with the red/white vein supplier and that will be my first order. Their leaf isnt flakey but they are very. VLNT is one of what will eventually be 4 suppliers-We dont do small samples per say, we do free items on occasion. It's too complicated to do small sample sizes at this point. I'm not there every week because it is a few hours from where I live. Only place that I could get already FDA registered facility, who has connections to a legitimate testing laboratory.

Will be adding more strains but won't have a million because frankly some strains are nonsense(premium/special etc) in my opinion. Delt with a lot of suppliers over there, and could very well be wrong...but I'm pretty confident I'm right. Lol-just contradicted myself 3 times in last sentence so it's time to stop writing. Edit: And thanks for the order. Oh we did small samples because I made a batch of full spectrum. I might do that in future.

Lol, I'm not sweating the sample thing. Only reason I mentioned it is because I've heard about the FS samples.

Definitely looking forward to the White and Red Vein leaf. For some reason, I always assumed it was VLNT leaf. I'll be checking the site regularly for any new additions, and will promptly scoop up any and all that interest me.

[motarkbest]

I get the VLNT thing. Probably because it is the only supplier(crumbs guy also-i got extract from him-I've literally ordered from everyone since a lot of sellers are the same-a lot of resellers) that has a brand. Email me-i will email you when red vein/white are officially ordered/come.

[WarmFoothills]

I was stoked to see him back too, made me a little nostalgic lol. Hope he gets that Yellow maeng da back in stock!

MOTARK's Generic named Red and White vein were my 2 favorite strains for a long time (might still be)...hard to beat a blend of those two...I STILL have some of both of them...actually I STILL have a LOT of MOTARK leaf...He was in my TOP 5 Vendor's list back in 2016-17 and I stocked up! I guess I need to order some new stuff from him...Glad to hear he still has quality leaf.

Right on. I know my boy labdog is a aficionado. I remember you from back when I was at KCF. Remember that HB&M white cambo, green pucuk, and red pucuk? I still have some of all three...shit is so potent 2g is sometimes all you need.

I recently picked up three more Motark varieties, green elephant, RMD, and WMD. All three are quality, no ragrets.

The G. Elephant is good too? Looks like I'll be making another purchase. So far I have the GHK, G. Malay, R. Borneo, RMD, WMD & GMD. All are good but the standouts to me me so far are the GHK and the Red Borneo. It's rare that I like a red this much. It's very relaxing but not sedating. I've only tried the RMD and GMD once each.
