The difference 4 months makes

[WarmFoothills]

Hey everyone, I know most people on the board are well aware of this kratom phenomenon, but for new folks here: don't give up on a strain if it doesn't work for you intially. I bought a couple kilos from 7ohm last February, I was stoked because I hadn't had his product in a few years. I remember one of his Green veins I tried in 2017 was one of the finest kratom products I had ever tried (I'm no connoisseur but am pretty experienced, have tried at least 80 vendors over the years).

Well, I tried the Green Medan and felt nothing. I could have literally been eating matcha powder and would have experienced more effects. It's a bummer when it happens but it happens. Fast forward to yesterday, when I gave it another shot. Absolute masterclass product. Nice energy, massive mood lift, that warmth and relaxation we all love.

So don't give up. Stash your "bad" kratom in the corner of a closet, wait a few months and try again. It's strange that it happens, I wish understood the biological reasoning to it (perhaps some of it is psychological?) but when it happens it's a massive relief... glad I didn't waste money on an entire kilo

Anyway, hope all you kratomites are enjoying your weekend and staying safe!

I have a recent batch from 7ohm that didn't thrill me either. I tried it a handful of times with no luck, but I guess I'll just let i sit and try it again in 3-4 months. It's not like it's really gonna get worse, or like I'm gonna throw it away ha-ha

For me it seems to be a fluctuation in tolerance for that batch's effect type. Some weeks I'm more adjusted to fast kratom and the slower ones feel like they're missing something. I don't think I've ever had a batch improve for me while I had stuck to it in a pattern for long. It's always while taking a break trying other things.

@WarmFoothills

I really appreciate this post .

I was on another thread writing about my disappointment with some batches I bought last Fall - and, yes, it got closeted, lol.
Now I'm looking forward to giving it another try and if I'm not "wowed" I'll still give it another after that. I have seen some kratomites write that it could take up to five tries!

We all need a little optimism right now, so thanks

Honestly, stash all your stuff....... People dont understand that any KRATOM! even weak once will be fire after a week of no kratom... I honestly think people have no limits and dose way to often then complain its weak shit. I take big breaks often and felt all my kratom. Sure only had 2 batches that wa complete utter shit and not even kratom??? but thats is very very rare. Coming from a guy who likes variety, stash all... No matter what happens or no more kratom, you will be glad to pull that shit out and feel slight better... yes the stuff you hate... I had stuff that was considered fire and it was shit, and then i realized its only fire for higher dose people. People who took 2 grams every 5 hours would not like that at all. Sometimes play with less and more after some breaks to reveal true best effects of any batch. once you figure, write it down.
