BioBotanical and Choice Headshop Kratom reviews

Post by GreenHippo »

New here but would like to share my experience with 2 of the most common kratoms found in headshops.

1. Choice Botanical's Bali 500 Red Maeng Da capsules 25 count
Headshop price is around 15$-20$

Dosage: Being rather new to it I started with 3 caps in the morning. then redosed 2 every hour, 3 times. I felt almost nothing, except slight gut discomfort. No Pain relief no nothing.
I do not suggest getting this brand.

2. BioBotanical's Primal Maengda 10gram Powder comes with a lil scooper in the bottle. Price was under 15$.

Dosage: 1 and 1/2 of the given scooper of powder on the teaspoon then toss and wash.
Better than the Choice by far. Effects were prevalent about an hour in however much like the low dosage pain killers they don't have the Sustained Release I want or the longevity for one dose to work all day. Effects last about 3-4 hours slowly going away. Even at that price I don't suggest getting it from the hype that I've heard about quality vendor product Versus Headshop products.


PS: I've got a pack coming in from Happy Hippo to see if the fight between headshop and vendors has merit. I will gladly post a review on it if it is wanted.

Have you seen Ballz's vendor list? Click on the green link at the top. You can see the price per gram (PPG) and they will be significantly less than Happy Hippo and headshop kratom.

Some of my favorites are Herbal RVA, Liza's, Treasure House Botanical, K-OG, Smiley Time.

Happy hippo is an example of a terrible vendor. They're basically an online headshop. They are not representative of most online vendors (who price fairly and have much better quality leaf) ...and usually when someone mentions happy hippo, a lot of people chime in and pile on with how awful they are.

Go with one of the vendors HH (herbal hippie, not happy hippo lol) mentioned or on the vendor list...you'll be glad you did and won't ever buy retail again :)

Significantly cheaper than HH. Thanks for the link! If only reddit would allow information such as this to be posted to their boards freely a lot of people wouldn't be harmed by bad vendors.

Yes, it was a sad day when Reddit banned vendors/vending info.

How did you find us here?

reddit board, randomly messaged a person asking about their kratom post and was told this place has better info and allows vendors and sauces.
