Daily Review thread: What's burnin' today?

Post by **BallzDeep9** » Tue Oct 23, 2018 5:13 pm

Hey fellow Kratomites! What's got you burnin' today?

That's the question, each and every day. What's happening? What's got your buzz on today. Positive or not. Please Report!

Today I'm doing a 2:1 blend of 2-parts Smiley's Premium White Thai, and Franz Herb Red Dayak. I like to blend almost every day, and a "Pink Blend" (Red +White) is always a good choice .. Its really hitting good @ 1-hour after drinking my Smoothie.. I just finished my first cup of coffee. Noon hour here. Smiley's a great story.. Kratom connoisseur and collector.. a vendor group on MeWe.. just opened website HERE

Yesterday I had 2:1 Widi's Green Big Bang (from Herbal RVA 0820 batch) plus Maeng Da Sulawesi from early summer. Got good euphoria w/ some energy however I was very busy Monday, running errands & doing other stuff so hard to judge. Point is, rotate strains, do something different each day!

Got my third shipment of Smiley's in yesterday, today I tried out the white mahakam for breakfast= nice! Fast and euphoric without being distracting. Definitely glad I picked this one up. Tonight I'm mixing up some of his monster mash with my old favorite secret smile.

I’m using 2 grams of KOG Kalbar premium that I got back in May. Just found it hidden in the back of a drawer. It seems it fell out of the kratom drawer and landed into the next drawer below. Love finding things.

Took 8g of phatcracker this afternoon and it gave me a nice boost of energy.

Tonight, going to relax with some Mystic Vampire and Netflix.

Post by **Trailmix** » Tue Oct 23, 2018 9:44 pm

Earlier today was wild green from RVA plus white nugroz from Johnson’s botanicals got lots of research done. Tonight red Asia from Johnson’s+ red Vietnam from mystic island and red indo from rva. I always do lots of mixing as well definitely get the best results that way.

Is that his most current Wild Green? If so, how is it? I got some but haven't cracked open the bag yet, will probably just throw it in the stash bin.

Yeah hippie I got it in the last month I think, it is the first “wild” variety I have ever got and I did enjoy it was not let down by the hype.

Good

Yeah, it's a good strain.

Just got my SoCal in yesterday and I'm enjoying the Red Thai blended with a little White MD. They sent me a sample of the White MD and I was a little iffy because I haven't had a white in about a year. I used to hate it but this one is A1. SoCal is SoGood!

Morning-
2:1 Johnson’s Green Boyan and White Mamba

Afternoon-
1:1 Christopher’s Organic Botanicals Red Agatha and Mystic’s Big Red One

Post by **BallzDeep9** » Thu Oct 25, 2018 6:37 pm

Yesterday I had an All BB day, my first time (in many batches) of their Plantation 12. Blended in a little White JK.

Of course it's GOOD, however I'd still rate the Verde a touch better? Need to try 'em both further...

Today doing a 3-Way blend - Johnson's Green Nanga/ some (Indo) Green Agus / THB Red Elephant #14. Wow, it's hitting very strong, and .. just a combo of three different sources. Magic!

Post by **whiffypants** » Thu Oct 25, 2018 7:02 pm

Today's a Mystic Island day for me. I burned some Aquamarine this morning -- very nice, good legs, smooth energy and pain relief -- and I'm probably going to take Jabro70's advice and mix some Mermaid and Green Vietnam for the evening dose.

(Note: If I'm still here posting at 2am, you'll know it maybe wasn't the best choice for an evening burn.

)

just recieved a 3 kilo order for 174 total including shipping which was free i might add. i used the 4way code to drop it from 183 to 174.

I ordered yellow thai, green Vietnam, and white maeng da. I noticed the sealer used to package these have dates imprinted on the seal which i never realized til now. mine say 10 of 2017.

If you have dates as well please let us know k. im curious how often the batches are made, and if it differes per size since some sell more often than others ya know.

Post by **gravystainonmyshirt** » Thu Oct 25, 2018 7:13 pm

im burning the green vietnam first and i must say it is still as good as it was before. idk if its beccause the batch is from 10-2017 but either way its good right now. Mystic looks like they are running low on strains, not sure if its due to the hurricane or what but they say they will have new soon. green vietnam a solid 8/10. i usually dont rate high to leave room for improvement but this strain is quite good

Post by **Cock Bronson** » Thu Oct 25, 2018 7:35 pm

Just took a mix of Herbal RVA's Green Big Bang (batch 082018) and White Bali (batch 60818) at a 2 to 1 ratio. Green Big Bang was my go-to strain (always mixed with a little white) until I discovered Mystic Island's Unicorn and Peridot. Nice to come back to this one after my MI interruption.

Post by **crystalcactus** » Fri Oct 26, 2018 3:42 pm

4g BB plantation and 2g mystic white Bali. I have had the plantation for a few months now and only just recently started appreciating it. Had the best time doing fall cleanup in the yard, after work no less

I have -- and really like -- both of those. Definitely sounds like a blend I need to try! Welcome to the board, Crystalcactus.

Thanks, been lurking for a few months. Love the site

Yeah it was one of the best blends I've come up with on my own. Another one of my favorites was BB wild white (which doesn't do much on it's own for me) and mystic vampire.

I would have posted about them sooner but I just wasn't sure where where a post like a recommended blend would go

Neither am I, and I'm a mod.

Blend tips pretty much just pop up here and there on the board. As we get bigger I'm thinking we might want a "recipe" section for exactly that, but right now it's pretty much just plunk blend discussion wherever you want.

You could even start a new thread under Reviews: no rule that says you can't review a blend, and there's plenty of us that blend daily or almost daily, so I know it would be welcome there. Bring 'em on!

Post by **crystalcactus** » Fri Oct 26, 2018 5:20 pm

I will definitely do that. Like you said from reading various posts you come across them from time to time. But recipe section does sound like a great idea.

Post by **whiffypants** » Fri Oct 26, 2018 5:23 pm

Well, the cool thing is that we can always move/copy/redirect posts and threads to a new forum. So if people start putting blend reviews in Vendor and Strain Reviews and there are enough, we can eventually put them in their own section if there's enough interest without modifying existing conversations.

Thanks for getting me thinking about that again. I do love a good blend!

Treasure House Botanicals .. I had a small sample of Modern Green MD Lot #13 - poured the little bag out: 2.5 grams. OK I blended that with 2g White MD from Fresh Alternative. And.. 2g Gold from B. Bunny. All vintage leaf from 1 year ago. Fantastic!

Post by **Devil_Dog21** » Fri Oct 26, 2018 11:21 pm

Just received RED Aceh from KOG today...and burning that tonight. Heard a lot of good things from e_poison on this strain so I'm anxious to see if it lives up to the hype.

-DD

Substantial pain day:

Morning: 1:1 BB Rojo Loco and Johnson’s Red Bent

Lunch: BB White Jong Kong

Evening: 1:1 Greg’s Red Elephant and C.O.B. Red Agatha

Post by **lemondrop** » Mon Oct 29, 2018 6:49 pm

I'm going to burn 4 grams of Red Bent and 2 grams of Chocolate Jongkong both from BB this afternoon.

Because I want to take one of those wonderful naps where I have vivid, memorable dreams and wake up smiling and relaxed.

Post by **BallzDeep9** » Mon Oct 29, 2018 6:58 pm

Today burnin' Johnsons Green Boyan 4g w/ - Okie Super Yellow & Smiley Chocolate Bent 1g.

Evening: 2:1 Johnson’s Red Bent and Greg’s Super Red Thai MD

I also got Greg’s Super Red Thai MD and, tbh, it's over hyped.. Decent pain relief I guess, but wow.. Greg claims it's the BEST Red he's ever had ?? What does that say, about his kratom just average ?

I might do some later this evening.

RVA Wild Green / Wild White. 60 / 40.

I'm going to make some Mmm Speciosa Baik Bali tea out of the concentrate that I may start up again. Check out the final result... It went past copper to brown (only does that with concentrate) and it's so deep you can't see through it. Yum! The frothiness is because I just poured it.

Had Wot's red Borneo crushed leaf tea, last night... chillin' like a villain. Sorry for the late response but better late than never.

Yeah, I’d say i was a little disappointed when i got it. He said something about it being better than his Chocolate too which I definitely didn’t agree with. I think several of his other reds have been better. It still has some value for it’s pain relief (which i think is pretty good) - but, i do prefer a little more euphoria with my analgesia.

Morning burn - Johnson’s Green Borneo

Man, that's a good burn. For me it was one of those strains that grow on ya: the more I do it the more I like it.

But tendonitis season is upon us -- every fall/winter I get body-slammed with it as soon as the weather turns -- so I think I'm gonna need something else this morning. Even just sitting here the shoulder is on fire.

I should probably stop talking about it and actually go do it.

EDITED TO ADD: Ended up doing a 3:1 blend of BB Rojo Loco and MI Sapphire. We'll see how it works out...

Post by **herbalhippie** » Wed Oct 31, 2018 10:19 am

whiffy, you need some of the pain balm I make, it's amazing for tendonitis.

Post by **whiffypants** » Wed Oct 31, 2018 10:33 am

Heh, I probably do. But I've pushed through pain my entire life and now I'm paying the price, so I gotta ask... do you offer it in the 55-gallon drum size?

But seriously -- some of that with a heating pad on it sounds great right about now. I'll PM you.

Post by **evilday** » Wed Oct 31, 2018 5:55 pm

Today is Monster Mash from Smiley cause if I didn't burn it today with a name like that, I'd never forgive myself
