BB is /super/ hit or miss for me.

1: Johnsons Botanicals
2: Herbal RVA
3: Acadica
4: Botanical Bunny
5: Okie Kratom

I've gotten some of my favorite stuff from BB, and also some of my least favorite. Huge variation between batches of the same strain too IMO. Still, no complaints on their operation. Just my personal feeling about their stuff.

1. Johnson’s botanicals
2. Mystic island
3. Socal
4. DG botanicals
5. I don’t have a 5th I was gonna try herbal RVA or KOG next

I like to make blends that are mixes of differnt vendors and different vein colors. This seems to be the most effective for me. Before I found this forum DG was my favorite but since they don’t sell kilos anymore, I don’t think that the quality is worth the markup tho it is usually good.

Here’s a list of my faves.
1. Mystic Island-Vampire is my favorite blend.
2. Botanical Bunny-red MD JK is excellent.
3. Herbal RVA—red Borneo is fantastic
4. SoCal-fastest processing, good leaf.
5. SOS- red Kali is superb. Service very slow, though.

Agus Widhiyanto - Indo Supplier
Very curious as to what makes him one of your favorites, Ballz. Do you have contact information? More info would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I've ordered from several small Indo guys. Agus is the most recent. He's not my "favorite" just my most "recent". I don't really have favorites because they're always changing. He's on MeWe .. We're expanding the Indo Supplier List. MeWe has dozens of new Indo guys posting.. many have websites now, too - Of course most are looking for 10+ Kg orders, not single Kilo.. I will probably start a Backpack Indo sample sale, at some point :D

Ah, got it. Thanks for the answer! I guess I'll have to give MeWe another go...

Is Herbal Salvations still around? I haven't ordered from anywhere for about a year but I remember them being top notch.

My favorite vendors are:

Socal - delivery time is the fastest out of any vendor I tried and their stuff is great too.
Herbal RVA - Best price per kilo I've ordered, and their kratom is hard-hitting.
Canopy - I like them, they always give free samples with your order (no other vendors I've seen does this).
KratomCrazy - Don't know how good their stuff is now but when ordered in first quarter of 2018, their red bali was amazing.
Gaia - Don't know if the quality of their stuff has changed but when ordering in the beginning of 2018 their green malay and hulu kaupas were awesome.
