    KT Botanicals Kratom & More!

    I just ordered 114 grams of Bali Kratom from KT Botanicals. I had previously went through 56 grams of the Thai from there. It was good but I orded the bali because I have heard that it has more euphoric and sedative type effects and that is what I am looking for. If you read this KT dude, can you give me some info about the Bali kratom you sell.
    Thanks

    Bali is normally less energizing and more euphoric ...I only buy green Thai for that reason...Have not tried his Bali but if that is the difference you are seeking - you'll proly be happy with it....
    KD's prices are very good ,especially for larger amounts...

    Hi there. The Bali, in my opinion, is a very well balanced product. The Bali is made from a blend of 3 grades of bali grown leaf. Since it contains stressed leaves, young leaves, and older leaves, it has more of a full spectrum of alkaloids as opposed to the green vein Thai. I recommend Thai for the researcher who is studying wakeful analgesics, as opposed to the bali which tends to sedate and immobilize mice in studies. The bali is cheaper, however this is no indication that it is of lesser quality, quite the opposite. Researchers LOVE my bali so much, that they buy kilos and kilos at a time. Since I have to buy more Bali to keep up with the demand, I get a better price on it than the Thai, and pass the savings down. i also have a new supply of Indonesian kratom, which comes from a different stock of trees than the Bali. I only have it in powdered form and it is showing alot of promise. I just put it up today and have a very limited supply of this material.

    As for Kratom seeds... they are really few and far between. I search my shipments frequently hoping that some seeds end up in there... nope. I did receive some seeds from a well known vendor, but they turned out to be Mitrigyna P. rather than speciosa. After exchanging emails back and forth, I was essentially told that I didn't know what I was talking about. Verify your sources before buying seeds for this one guys. Per weight, they are worth more than gold.

    Thanks KT!

    Thanks for the feedback. I actually just recieved my 3rd order of Bali from you today. Turns out I like it. I noticed the same difference between Bali and Thai that you stated. I would say that Thai is better for people who want to take it for work or to start their day. Bali is better for those who want to take it in the evening cause it makes you sleepy.

    Hey guys, I lowered the price on the Indo Kratom since many customers have made the switch from Bali and Thai and are now buying Indo. I now pick up much more than I used to, at a cheaper price, and I can now afford to let it go for cheaper to you! The Indo Kratom is a TRUE Red Veined variety! In the next month, I will be offering Red Vein Thai and Malaysian varieties as well. Stay tuned.

    I'm very interested in trying Kratom. Do you make a tea of it or take capsules?

    I order the powder and take capsules. Some people prefer the tea. Making the capsules is easier IMO.

    Tyler, the Thai Kratom I recieved from you recently seemed rather weak. Has anyone else commented to you about that?

    Negative, Shroomer. Its the same Kratom that I have always had, nothing has changed except for perhaps your tolerance =) What strain did you order?

    I ordered Thai, but for awhile I was really into the Bali. Probably tolerance and the fact that it is a different strain. Not looking for a free bee or anything. I've just heard that sometimes a bad batch of Kratom goes around.

    I'm gonna go with the Indo next time though. Thanks for the lower prices!

    I just noticed the wholesale link on your site too. Thats great because I've been really happy with your service and I wanted to order a kilo eventually. I was thinking I'd have to go to a different vendor. I'm pleased to know that I can stick with you!

    Thanks for the great service, the speedy deliveries, and all of your feedback.

    You've made a loyal customer out of me!

    Hey Shroomer,
    I am going to pick some up ( Kratom ). Since you seem well pleased with KT here, I will go through him ( Them? ), what do you suggest strain wise to start off with?
    Is the Tea Pleasant? or is it just something you down as quick as possible for the effects? If it is all in the effect I will just take capsules then.
    Any and all advice is much appreciated.

    I like the Bali because it gives me an opiate like euphoria. It is the cheapest kind they sell as well. Thai has more of a stimulant effect.

    KT botanicals just lowered the price of Indo. It is more expensive then Bali but is said to be more potent.

    I don't know much about making the tea, but I do know that many people seem to enjoy it. ANd I know that it has a stronger effect but for a shorter period of time.

    I prefer capsules because I don't like tea, and I think its easier.

    Do a search for kratom on Mycotopia. There has been alot of Kratom info posted here.

    I also have some extremely high grade pedicularis densiflora material that was just harvested last week! I doubt that anyone could ask for higher quality Pedicularis than my current stock:

    So,
    What are the differences? Mostly strength? or how much variation in effects? A relaxing, drowsy effect would go well w/ a bowl at the end of a night. Or should one save it for weekends?

    Its hard to find info on pedicularis densiflora. There is nothing on erowid or lycaeum about it. What little I have found on some random forums has gotten me excited to try it though. Plus that picture... it just looks delicious.

    From what I have read the pedicularis densiflora can be drank as a tea. Sounds like it is more commonly smoked though.

    tea

    glock22 Ive had more success with tea then I have smoking.
    I like to use 7-9 grams for a strong dose. Im sure thoe that might be a little much with fresh material like Tyler has.
    I would start 4-5 grams and wait maybe 45min or so and see if you might want to up it a bit from there.

    A friend of mine says he gets a good extract with a simple alcohol extraction. (Im sure a water extraction would work to)
    The bad thing is,,Ive read that tolerance can build up very quickly with these plants.
    Latter this week ,,I want to try an alcohol extraction and dry it on a nice mix of mullein/i.warrior and add a couple drops of pure vanilla for flavor.(Ill going with 10 grams indian warrior and fuse it on to 2 grams.)
    If anyone has any suggestions or thoughts feel free to pm me.

    take care,
    billybee

    Are you going to extract the Kratom or the pedicularis densiflora mentioned above?
    Making cookies or cakes from this stuff?
    So many things to try!
