Instead of rating on a scale of 1 to 10, I'll be logging how this strain affected me as either "not noticeable", "barely noticeable", "noticeable", "very noticeable" or "extremely noticeable" in five categories.
This is my first experience with any "Ketapang" strain from any vendor. I didn't know what to expect.
I've tested this strain at both slightly below my normal dose and also half that amount (hoping for energy). I have yet to test it at 100% of my normal dose or slightly above that. Here's my findings...
I tossed & washed The Greenery's "Green Ketapang" at 80% of my normal dose with Sunny D. (Sure glad I "stole" that T&W drink idea from someone on here... sorry, I forget who... but I've sure been enjoying T&W with Sunny D! Thanks!) I noticed that the bitterness of this strain seemed more pronounced than other strains that I've been using lately. Not a big deal for me... just wanted to point it out. Within 20-30 minutes I felt onset. 40 minutes after dosing I experienced some itching, which never really bothers me unless it's extreme; but this is the first time my eyelids have ever itched. "Hmm, that's different."
1 hour after dosing I ate a small meal. 15 minutes after that I noticed I was very calm... not quite sedate, but close. 15 minutes after that I seemed to be annoyed / slightly irritable. Not sure why. This lasted approximately 30 minutes. At 2 - 2 1/2 hours I noted "Euphoria is kinda' noticeable." It was like it was trying to peak it's head out but for some reason was afraid to come out and play. 
I stayed relaxed while I preceded with that part of my day's activities. I started to feel sedation near the end of the burn... about 5 hours.The Greenery's "Green Ketapang" at 80%:
Energy / Focus / Motivation = Barely Noticeable
Euphoria / Mood = Barely Noticeable
Relaxation / Calming = Very Noticeable
Sedation = Noticeable
Pain Relief = Noticeable
Later that same day I tested this strain at 40% (2g) of my normal dose, hoping to get some energetic properties out of it. Onset came at about 25 minutes. I ate about an hour after dosing. And had diarrhea about a half-hour afterwards. I'm not saying it was from the Green Ketapang. It could have been from the heat (pretty warm day). I was drinking plenty of liquids. What I ate I've had countless times before. I'll just chalk it up to "one of those things"... unless it happens next time. I was at work during this dose and experienced some anxiety about 2 hours after dosing. Part of the reason I take Kratom is for anxiety relief. Most of the strains I've been "testing" lately have really helped with that... in a major way. But on this day, not as much. I'd say I got a little more energy from this smaller dose than I did the 80% dose, but "nothing to write home about" as my grandmother used to say. Duration for this smaller dose was 4 - 4 1/2 hours, with slight sedation near the end.
The Greenery's "Green Ketapang" at 40%:
Energy / Focus / Motivation = Noticeable
Euphoria / Mood = Barely Noticeable
Relaxation / Calming = Barely Noticeable
Sedation = Noticeable near the end
Pain Relief = Noticeable
To sum up, this wasn't one of the better experiences I've had with greens strains lately. Maybe I was just having a bad day. But I can say I did use another strain from another vendor that night and had very positive experiences. I'll have to revisit The Greenery's "Green Ketapang" again at some point. But for now, I enjoyed their "Green Maeng Da" much more. I also have "Green Hulu Kapuas" and "White Ketapang" to try from them.
