Trying to find a good red blend
I've been blending different red strains trying to find a good relaxing and euphoric blend. So far I've blended red Vietnam and red bali and it was amazing. Any tips or any personal blends you guys have made?

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
Welcome, Rotel!
Relaxing and euphoric... hmm. I've been blending whites and reds with great success, but I think I have strange chemistry so take that with a grain of salt. Reds do nothing for me outside a blend; blended with a white they knock me right out. A recent favorite is RVA White Hulu and K-OG Red Asia in equal parts, with maybe a touch of RVA Royal Bent: delightful.

I'll definitely have to give that a try! Thanks. Reds only work for me blended as well. But when they do man is it amazing!

One of my favorites for this effect is royal bent and red bali 1:1 ratio. I use rva leaf.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
I usually blend reds with golds. Seems to work well for me. Royal Bent and Gold Jonkong from RVA 60% Red 40% Gold usually works well for me on a relaxing evening.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
Since we're talking rva, the gold MD + royal bent is noteworthy.
This morning I tried white MD and bent, it was a surprisingly chill combo. Maybe too chill for first thing in the morning

Hey Rotel, you accidentally made a duplicate post so I deleted the one that had no replies. No problem at all, I'm just letting you know. It's all good.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
I think RVA's White Hulu is my favorite strain in general. Bought it a few times and it was always my strongest Kratom. I haven't seen it stocked in a while though, unfortunately.whiffypants wrote:Welcome, Rotel!

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
I was lucky enough to get in on some of it, it's definitely a very nice strain. But I've never had it outside a blend. I should probably try it on its own and see what it does by itself!I think RVA's White Hulu is my favorite strain in general. Bought it a few times and it was always my strongest Kratom.

If you're looking for pre-blended, the Vampire and Ruby blends at Mystic Island are great.Rotel561 wrote:I've been blending different red strains trying to find a good relaxing and euphoric blend.

Yeah, I love mixing reds with gold bali.BlendsAreMyFriends wrote:I usually blend reds with golds. Seems to work well for me. Royal Bent and Gold Jonkong from RVA 60% Red 40% Gold usually works well for me on a relaxing evening.
Red bali + gold bali is great.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
Man, I wish. I tried both separately and in blends for the longest time, and... nothing. Or next to it. Still had pain relief but that was about it. The only gold that did anything for me was a December batch of SoCal Gold Malay, but even that lost power after a very short while. No clue why.Yeah, I love mixing reds with gold bali.
Red bali + gold bali is great.
But now golds and/or reds, either or both with a bit of white or yellow, and it's a velvet wrecking ball. Slams my ass down and keeps it down for many hours, which is a miracle anyway. Completely inexplicable. BB has a great Gold Bali that is absolutely awesome for me now.
Yeah, I already know. I ain't right.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
This was kind of special... "Vantage Red" is it's name btw
I was so tired but feeling creative apparently.
Helped produce interesting gems written in my journal like this one....
(you can laugh, - I did)
"It is awareness from a vantage point that is above what a human being reasonably expects to have access to."
Yea I know - but, well anyway..
And I think I labored for a while to pull that together to my satisfaction too.
Help with sleep - yes but only after the two hour field trip and for once I didn't mind at all. It was worth it.
Cleared those burdens right up and started the next day right.
I converted my weights (tiered fashion) & this is what came out. Simple is boring.
✷ SG Red Borneo 31% ✷ Royal Bentuangie 29%
✷ Red Kalimantan 23% ✷ Red Viet Nam 17%

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
I too am trying to find a good red blend. I can't sand white strain kratom as they always seem to keep me awake and I only use kratom to help with sleep and pain. The only strain I've been able to find so far that is perfect for that nice warm feeling that helps me relax and promote sleep as well as to stop pain is a blend called red relief blend which is a blend of different red vein strains from a company known as Green Leaf Kratom, but it is so pricey I think I paid $20 for 30 grams. Still I can't find any blend or single strain that helps me like that blend does.
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
Hi Rotel, I have been using Mystic Mermaid from Mystic Island, might be just what your looking it's all ready pre blended, it's pretty euphoric hits within about 20 min, and not super sedating with some pretty good pain relief.

Re: Trying to find a good red blend
Mystic's Mermaid and Green Maeng Da was so good that I decided to blend
2/3 K-OG Premium Red Elephant and 1/3 Mystic Mermaid this evening and I
was blown away! Now I want to try blending Mermaid with everything! I just
ordered some more because I only got a small amount to try.
Funny thing, when I first got the Mermaid and tried it by itself, it did
absolutely nothing for me. But put it in blends and it's outstanding!
If I'd had the money I would have ordered a kilo of the stuff tonight.
