Anyone a PMD from mmmspeciosa fan with comparable recommendations?

Post by wtgg »

Hello all!

I discovered mmmspeciosa years ago and have yet to find another that compares with their Plantation MD. But there are times (currently) when they have zero in stock or more often, just have the 25g only. I’m looking for a vendor with similar quality.

I am about to place an order with West Koast and hoping her products live up to the hype. In the meantime thought I’d run this by the forum.

Another, less important question…. For those who used mmmspeciosa in the past but moved on, was it just due to their higher pricing?

Thanks in advance!

I've only gotten their leaf second hand, same as Herb Research, they are kind of in the same category, like designer leaf or something. I think the PMD is sold by Viable Solutions, called the same "Plantation Maeng Da." That's how it USED TO BE, since they stopped being Herbal Salvation, shit could have changed, but it's still on the menu and called the same. Maybe someone else knows for sure?

The higher pricing is the reason I stopped. That, and during the 2016 ban threat they had a special on 2 1/2 kilos of green md and that shit lasted me forever! Their Biak Bali (I think that's what it was called) was pretty good too!

I should try them again ...

Hey Mivanqua, how are you?? Yeah, it's been hot here in southern Kentucky, but not as hot as some places. I feel sorry for the people out west!

Yeah the pricing was always a little high. Their Baik Bali was the first strain I ever bought. Can't complain about the quality of the leaf, customer service or packaging. Actually dosed way too much the first time and ended up puking and getting crazy wobbles. Guess the price was a silver lining because I tried it again instead of throwing it away. Socal Herbal Remedies started up around the same time (early 2015) and their kratom was cheaper so I started buying from them and then branched out into other small batch vendors.
