Good morning 🙂

[Greenleaf2022]

Good morning everyone! Hope you’re having a great October morning New to this forum as of this week. I’m so out of the loop with new vendors I figured I’d join and get caught up. Who has been your favorite presently? What about in the past? Any vendor you’d like to come back?

[Badgame85]

Welcome aboard!!

No doubt everyone's top 5 list will be different, however I can guarantee that at least one of these will be on everyone's top five list.

Texas Family Harvest (membership only)
D615 (membership only)
Lucky's Botanicals (membership only but I think now is open?)
LoneStar Mitra Source
Mitra Man Botanicals
Lucky's Botanicals (membership only but I think now is open?)
Okie's Kratom
Fused Flora
Herbal RVA

As with any vendor, ever... you'll have hit and miss. But your chances of success are much higher than the field with these vendors

[Manji]

Would like to add rhino remedies to that list. His current e drop still has a lot of good ones available

[Greenleaf2022]

Thank you! Herbal RVA used to be one of our go to vendors! They’ve been around a while now. Seems like a lot of vendors left which sucks.
I’ve read good things about Texas Family Harvest too! I’ll check out rhino as well. And yes for sure with the hit or miss thing, that’s just how it goes I’m sure they’re so busy too, kratom really has taken off

[Kelleytoons]

And the one I'd add would be Oties (with a "T" and not a "K"). In fact, my list would really just be:

TFH
Denette
Oties

as those are the only vendors I'll ever buy from again (no shade on Lucky's, Lizas and Sakti - I just have all I need from them. My goal now is to make my 100+ rotation as solid as can be with only big hitters).

[Greenleaf2022]

Thanks! TFH seems to be a favorite of everyone right now

[Kelleytoons]

TFH has been a favorite of many, for a long time. But their very exclusive membership meant that the Trading Post was the only way a lot of folks can participate (and nothing wrong with that, either. In some ways it's a LOT friendlier to the pursestrings, as I've found out recently. I absolutely CANNOT buy any more from them this year. He says).

[Greenleaf2022]

Good to know! I remember them being around a few years back but never got around to trying them. I liked the small vendors better then as well but would sometimes go with bigger names. I recently tried some extract from the local head shop and it’s just not the same power as I remember I still have a couple random packs from my stash in the meantime but excited to try something new. Seeing a lot of stuff on Reddit about the batches now not being as strong as a few years back (for many reasons) but would you say that’s the case?

[Kelleytoons]

If you're asking ME I have no idea - I just started my kratom journey a touch over a year ago.

But folks are all saying the batches this season are fire, so it's hard to imagine anything being that much better a few years back. There is only so much mit you can cram into one leaf.

Otie’s
Liza’s
Fused Flora

I’ve been on a big Liza’s kick lately. She has so many strains from different suppliers that it’s easy to keep a good rotation with ordering from her. It’s like ordering from 4 different vendors in one.

She’s also very, very, very nice and is having some major health issues so I’ve been recommending her business as much as I can lately.

Welcome friend. The private vendors beloved on this board are all very good imo. Tfh, lsms, d615, and rhino have treated me quite well and i could easily roll w just these guys. I am not a member of tfh, but have a fine selection thanks to dealings and trading post. Good place to try diff vendors and some fine deals to be had.

At the moment ive been enjoying the latest drops from lsms and d615 w some rhino e supplier love and a splash of oties super rmd and white elephant to round out the rotation. Happy hunting!
