It’s a blend, but Liza’s Red Headed Step Child blend is pretty good. Mid spec, good for pain. Also Liza’s Red Zombie. I’m not too big into reds, but I do enjoy those.K-fox wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 7:12 pm I’m looking for a good solid red for pain. Non fermented and from a vendor open to the public. Something like a lower/mid spec I can use any time of day. Nothing stimulating or overly sedating. It seems like it’s becoming harder and harder to get good reds anymore. Like, just a good old school red, nothing fancy. Thanks
Which mid spec greens do you recommend?
I waited until like 10pm like a fool and missed out on the Red Sakit lol. I agree the G4 Select Series Red Bali is great, relaxing and consistent. The Gold Horned Dragon acts like a red, potent.Madvillain626 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 10, 2024 11:03 pm Down to Earth Botanicals is dropping on 11/14 at 700pm est. He has fire reds, some of the best I've ever had. Some bangers will be included like Old School Red MD, Super Red Dragon, Wild Red Sakit. You need to be ready right at drop time because the choice reds sell out QUICKLY (often within 15-20 minutes) for obvious reasons. He also has Select Series reds like Premium Red Bali that stay in stock
also look into Nodfather

I just ordered the 3x 80g combo with the 2 strains you recommended plus the vintage red. Thanks a lot! Fingers crossed they work .WhiteAngelica wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2024 7:56 pm Wildcraft is good. Get Pure Red and OG Wild. I can recommend a zillion strains, but I'm pretty dang confident that these two will meet your needs. The Pure Red is a little faster than the OG and the OG will definitely fit your criteria.
They didn’t work very well unfortunately. They did give me a free sample of Green Sumatra which was the best one of all surprisingly.
Wildcraft Pure Red, OG Wild, and Vintage Micro Red. I just placed that order: The Viable Solutions reds didn’t agree with me sadly.GreenAnimal wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2024 4:45 amWhat did you end up going with?K-fox wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 7:12 pm I’m looking for a good solid red for pain.

If you're looking for a solid red kratom strain for pain that's not overly sedating or stimulating, consider Red Bali or Red Borneo. These are classic strains known for their balanced effects, providing relief without excessive sedation. Another option is Red Thai, which offers consistent relaxation without being too heavy.K-fox wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 7:12 pm I’m looking for a good solid red for pain.

This is terrible, but I am a near red strain fundamentalist. I can go on and on about reds, not particularly the fermented kind, and I have my go-to day, mid-day to eve, plus night reds. Rarely have I found greens to help me with my pain, but Premium MD's seem to help. Mitraman's Dark Room Hulu Kapuas is a staple of mine. PA Botanicals has a Red Fibro Blend I order every now and then, sometimes as enhanced. I like their Green Fibro Blend and I got a sample of Green Machine, which I liked. Midspec greens include blends like Liza's Happy Go Lucky --which is a blend of what I believe are greens-- Smileytime Herbals Super Green #3, and oddly, Soultanic has greens that like, sing to my heart. A favorite of theirs is some variation that includes the words Green and Nanga. I know I tried others in a sampler but if you can get it, Soul's Green Nanga is one. I also would order my reds as usual from Rhino and he would sell me on some great greens that became part of my repertoire: Green Borneo, Green Supreme...some of these you might want to ask the Trading Post about. I'm out of all of these and the one midspec green I have that I love is Herb Research Green Kali. I have some of their green based extracts, but I am selling those among my remaining greens. I need to make room for surefire pain slayer reds and so I'm selling my greens and a fair amount of reds so I can organize what I have and make room. Also, a good midspec green I believe blend is Lucky's Warrior. I have it but still an putting it up, no matter how good, because my pain has been next level turdy. Everyone says that this green or that or this white helps with pain and I agree when I'm on a level 4. When I'm at a 10, I need a fast, aggressive red to bust back my hurt like a WWF Wrestler on Bath Salts.
Just a FYI, I have been a customer of Entheofarm for the last half year and I am quite happy. I won't suggest any of the fancy stuff because here we have solid, good red that should not overstimulate you nor knock you out, so I will just mention a couple: Super Red Maeng Da, Red Thai, Red Bali, Orange Vein MD, Divine Indo. Also, I find Otie's Super Red Maeng Da to meet your qualifications. I really like their Red Bali but can find it a little too relaxing so a solid, good Otie midspec along with the SRMD is Red Malay. The Red Malay should actually have 'midspec red' in sharpee all over it, truly.K-fox wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 7:12 pm I’m looking for a good solid red for pain.

Agh, the last line of that just hit home so hard for me rn!

But yeah. I have a Kratom nerd notebook and I write my impressions of various reds. I keep a stash list of what I have, what I wish to sell, what I had before that I'd like to have again, and a wishlist. I also try to organize ones with energy as my 'day' reds, midday/evening as my midspec reds, and then the night reds (which for me are always enhanced with a splash of gold). I do all this because my ADHD makes it really hard to not know what I have, how much I have, what I am running low on, and selling some of my stash helps keep the ADHD at bay. I am considering going down to just a few vendors in the future because chronic pain and ADHD are not extraordinary bedfellows.
My ADHD is so uncontrollable right now that it isn't even funny. I asked for a watch for Christmas so I could avoid further time loss and yesterday, I left the house and forgot the watch at home. I thought I left it in the Uber though or that it might be in my backpack, since when the ride came I was totally not ready and I just grabbed a few things and stuffed them in my bag, and then at Target I was pawing through my backpack like a raccoon in a dumpster. I also forgot to Kratom before I left and it didn't take long before the beast came back. I usually bring Kratom with me, but I was running late because again, ADHD glaring and flaring and so is my pain.Redacted wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2024 12:58 amAgh, the last line of that just hit home so hard for me rn!

Out of curiosity, what is your dosing schedule typically like?WhiteAngelica wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2024 2:53 pmMy ADHD is so uncontrollable right now that it isn't even funny.

Though it is more of an evening thing, I have found my red relief in Entheofarm's Divine Indo. I got a few kratoms for Christmas, mostly red and an unknown blend called 'Exalted' from PDO that is helping my mood problem, but I have been hammering away with Divine Indo almost nonstop.
I am too ashamed to reveal my dosing schedule. Pretty much anything involving a schedule is a bit too rational for me, so I stupidly dose when my pain starts to creep back. Creeping pain and dosing can certainly fix me, but if I wait too long and the pain becomes a shrieking harpie, I might have to double dose. That has been the case in the morning lately. I will take my usual, but I've had all night to let the ouch build up and by the time I'm ready for the best part of waking up, I'm ready for 36 red strains in my cup.Redacted wrote: ↑Thu Jan 02, 2025 12:36 amOut of curiosity, what is your dosing schedule typically like?WhiteAngelica wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2024 2:53 pmMy ADHD is so uncontrollable right now that it isn't even funny.

Herba reLeaf caps are good for any time of day for me. I have issue taking caps, so I open them up and take them that way. I only need 2 of them, which helps not having to open up a bunch of them.K-fox wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 7:12 pm I’m looking for a good solid red for pain.
