DTE is having a drop tomorrow. Any of the reds from the A supplier would definitely fit the bill!

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
Oh boy...someone else is going to have a better answer..but for now you've got me. I only first heard of them sometime in 2022. They have good and great products but their drop and sell out thing is frustrating for me. Especially since I'm not a mewe/discord lurker. If you are, however, you can get the jump on what to buy.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
Can someone suggest a red or two from him that is usually pretty good? I don't go to MeWe or Discord.
I haven't tried anything from this vendor yet. Not looking forward to one of those chaotic drops, but I'll give it a try once.
Thanks!

Super Red Kali A12 Vibrant green red, hits mid with a touch of energy. Very well-rounded, solid potency.
You really can't go wrong with the A supplier. He has continuously put out the best leaf of the season for me.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
H², DTE's original Super Red Kali - A1 (his first drop) was one of my favorite reds ever. I liked it so much I quickly bought a second bag, which I rarely do. He does have Super Red Kali - A12 in the drop tomorrow (12:00 noon, so 9:00 am your (and my) time), so I'd suggest grabbing some fast. I hope it's as as good as the A1, it was fantastic!herbalhippie wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 1:26 pm Can someone suggest a red or two from him that is usually pretty good? I don't go to MeWe or Discord.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
Thanks! Is it slower or faster. I guess I'm looking for good daytime reds, not faster though.SeventhHeaven wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 7:52 pmH², DTE's original Super Red Kali - A1 (his first drop) was one of my favorite reds ever.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
Honestly, it's been a while since I've had any - this was a good reminder to get it out again!herbalhippie wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 9:01 pmThanks! Is it slower or faster.

From what I remember, it just rang all the right bells for me - great mood boost, very nice pain relief, delightful warm fuzzies. Definitely - at least for me - a daytime red, I'd say it was mid to maybe mid upper.
I wish I could be more exact, but then it was several batches back AND it's different for everybody. I don't think you'll be disappointed if it's as good as the A1!

Go to DTE Botanicals and you can sign up for their mailing list. That way you will know when they have a new drop. Today 9/15 they have a new drop. I'm a huge TFH fan and always will be but DTE Botanicals has really been great lately. I think you will love them. Super fast shipping too.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
I can confirm the A12 is great. Slower than the A1 tho. A1 is solidly upper-mid daytime red for me, which is more of my jam. A12 is very potent too (2% mit) but more of a afternoon/night strain for me. Great body feels and long legs like the first batch. it's still on the menu, go go go!SeventhHeaven wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 7:52 pmH², DTE's original Super Red Kali - A1 (his first drop) was one of my favorite reds ever.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
I did order some of the Wild Red Kali - A12, since I still have a sealed bag of the Super Red Kali - A1. I hope the Wild Red Kali is at least in the neighborhood of as good!Madvillain626 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 16, 2023 12:14 amI can confirm the A12 is great. Slower than the A1 tho.

H² said she doesn't like reds that are too fast, so I hope she grabbed some (or still will)!
People seemed to really like the 20-year Pure White too, so I also grabbed one of those.

Mitramans current batch of Red Horn is an excellent day time red. I would label it more of a green but it’s not fastherbalhippie wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 9:01 pmThanks! Is it slower or faster.

Re: What are the absolute best reds right now?
Well, I finally got to try some of Heavenleaf's Blood Moon Red Bali today - I like it! Very smooth, good feels... I'm interested to see what it does mixed with a good white or green...
I had a bag ordered which apparently got lost somehow before it got to USPS, and when I let Susanne know she immediately got another one in the mail. Heavenleaf - Laura and Susanne - are great people, as is Chris at Lonestar MitraSource who's now selling some of their leaf as well
