Let's talk about Gold strains

[Derpdawg]

Hey everybody. So I've always been a green strain guy myself. They always tended to be more euphoric for me than other colors. Reds never hit me too hard to be honest. I recently tried the gold bali from 7ohm, and I absolutely loved it. Great warm feeling. Good euphoria and anxiety relief.

I would like to learn more about golds and how they differ from green/red/whites. From what I've read, golds are typically one of the following two:

1. Sun dried kratom, typically a red strain
2. A mixture of different kratom strains

Do any of you have knowledge on this subject? Maybe some vendors can weigh in on it. I'd like to learn more about Gold strains. Also, feel free to post your favorite gold strains you have tried. Would love to know. Thanks!

Each farmer and supplier will have a different take on golds. We do golds by oxidizing our indoor dried greens. Some like to blend greens and bents to create golds. My customers prefer oxidized greens verse bent blends.

My yellows are oxidized whites. Hope this helps!

Good question OP and that’s a super helpful answer. I recognize not all do as you Rhino, but cool to know it is a different process vs a blend. Thanks both!

Fused Flora Gold Kapuas - wow! Really melts the tension away. I have MMs Gold Borneo and a few others left to try.

Yep their gold and yellow Kapuas together is my favorite burn right now. They also have those colors but for MD but I much prefer these two together. FF uses fermented greens as their golds and fermented whites as their yellows. Others use oxidized greens and whites as those, and most will just blend reds and green for gold and white and green for yellow. FF is my favorite for these right now with TFH close behind.

Yes, I need to blend those. Good to know about TFH- any in particular stand out? I've bought a few samplers on the trading post.

I heard the gold sampus is good as well as the 24K and wild yellow

I'd like to learn more about golds, myself! I haven't had much luck with them. Granted, I've only tried three at this point (across as many vendors), but all have either barely hit or not hit at all. Wonder if that's just a thing with my own chemistry or what.

Can any other vendors weigh in? (Thanks for your input, Rhino!)

My favorite all time Gold is TFHd Wild Crafted Gold.I love all their Golds I've tried,recently the Golden Sambas great pain relief with a bit of energy its such a beautiful dark red,Lizas Yellow Gold is special to a bit faster I also loved her golden tulip but thats no longer available.The reason I pick TFH Wild Crafted Gold is this,I have Trigeminal Neurologia and suffer from horrible migraines,I started taking Kratom for pain control in place of my prescription. meds and its been amazing but nothing helps these headaches from TN until I tried WCG something about it makes them go away at first I thought it was coincidence but have since tried it several times and 6 out of 7 times it works this Gold from TFH is worth far more than Gold to me.

Gold strains mostly created from blends between Green and Red, sometimes white and reds. Its depend on the colour of the reds as basic materials. If the reds too dark, its need to be mixed with bright green.

Long time ago, gold created from half fermented leaves, bcause its hard to controls the fermented process most ppl mixing it right now
