*UPDATE Free Kratom - Testers Needed (New October Harvest)

***
11/22 UPDATE - Please see my comment on page 2 regarding the delivery timeline for some test packages****
Hello Everyone! We are once again looking to give away free kratom from our latest harvest in exchange for your feedback! This is an important test group for us, as we are testing a tweak to one of our most important pre-harvest manipulations.
**PLEASE READ THI UPDATE/CHANGE TO OUR NORMAL TESTING PROCESS - Unfortunately, a small percentage of folks who agree to accept our test samples in exchange for feedback do not fulfill their end of the bargain. This is a real problem for us because for some of our experiments we only prepare a very small batch (250-500g) so we are really counting on feedback for every single sample we send out. We have been trying to figure out a solution to this (we would welcome suggestions from the community!). For now, we are going to try this one-time offer of TFH membership to see if this improves the survey return rate.
With that, we are very excited to announce that for this round of testing, we will be inviting a handful of successful testers to become permanent TFH members
This offer is for folks that have not tested for us in the past 2 months (some of the samples we are testing this round are carry-overs from previous test batches that we want more data on - we want to avoid duplicate testing). If we do not get enough participants, we will open it up to previous testers in about 7-14 days (we will post here if that is the case).
We have tried our best to make the submission of feedback quick and painless. As such, there is a quick online survey you complete to submit your feedback, which only takes on average 1-minute per sample. All feedback is collected privately via an online survey. You may post public feedback if you are inspired to do so (nothing to hide here) - but the private survey submission is all we are asking for.
We do ask that you chip in $2 to help cover shipping if you can afford it. Please be patient with our responses and shipping timeframe, we have a specific schedule we follow when executing our testing process. It may take several days, but I promise we will get back to you!
To apply as a tester, please PM me with the following information in your first message (not having to send too many PM's back and forth is helpful since most people do not check their PM's daily)
-Name
-Address
-Email Address
-And a very brief summary of your kratom profile (avg serving size, how long you have been using, preferred strains/vendors, etc). You don't have to write a novel or spend much time on this... just a few quick details.
Finally, I wanted to clarify that this offer is for testing only. While we value every single one of our peers here in Double M, we are not accepting new customers at this time.
* Please note that accurate data is the reason we do this - everyone has an invested interest in us obtaining good data (in the long term, this will lead to better/more consistent quality kratom). Please DO NOT manipulate or embellish your feedback in hopes that will get you selected for membership. Our selection criteria will be based on testers completing every survey in a timely manner - NOT how they rated our products or how long their comments are.
**If you agree to accept these samples, please be sure to follow the instructions provided via PM (especially around test order and timeliness, etc..)
***We usually send out our tests packages once a week in batches and we send them first class. Depending on which batch your test package is shipped with, it could be 1-2 weeks before you receive the samples. Please be patient with delivery - due to the sheer volume of tests we send each month we have to follow a structured process that can take time. (please note - this is not how we handle customer orders)
*** I want to be transparent that outside a couple of our "staples" most of these are very small-batch test samples (anywhere from 250g - 10kg's in most cases) and have not been lab-tested. The reality is most of the kratom you consume has not been tested either, but I wanted to be transparent either way. What I can tell you is we are very hands-on and take the greatest care/oversight of to ensure the product is responsibly sourced.

This is one of the best opportunities to try AMAZING KRATOM ... Chris has a very good thing going on and if you are up to the task (lol ) of trying exceptional kratom that is top notch quality in exchange for a accurate account of your experience and thoughts on samples you try... this is a stellar way to do that while contributing to TFH process of maintaining their quality products ....what I’ve sampled in the past from them has been a real treat ....
Definitely try this out if you can and be sure to take the survey promptly so that info can be taken in and used ..!!..!!..
I love TFH slogan “ For Connoisseurs by Connoisseurs” !!!
Super cool !! Thank you Chris , much respect brother

I hate to be a kratom Dick Rider but if you get a chance to get your hands on some of the stuff I would definitely take a chance because stuff like this don't come along very often. I don't want to overhype it either for those expecting to be knocked off their feet but I'll just put it this way it's pretty damn good

If you click on the "handle" or "username" of a user in any thread, it should take you to some detail about that member's forum participation and history. You will find a "send private message" hyperlink in the middle of that page
if that functionality is available.
Note that there are some minimum forum participation requirements to enable this functionality for SPAM protection.

I'll echo what many others have already said: if you have not tested for Gumbyke yet, JUMP ON THIS OFFER! I've been lucky to test a few times, and also get a couple samples with some vintage lots I bought, and Texas Family Harvest has some of the best Kratom I have ever tried, and I've tried almost of the them in 3 1/2 years daily use. Truly unique and outstanding quality. And Gumbyke is extremely generous when it comes to the samples. Plus the surveys literally take like 1-2 minutes like he mentioned. I've filled out dozens of the surveys, and they take less time then it takes to type of this response right now lol
Chris is an extremely good guy, and his knowledge of kratom and his care of the community is as good as it gets.
I'll also echo some other members statements: I'd love to test again this month as well, but think I don't qualify. But if you need testers Gumbyke, you know I'll never say no to testing

yeah I'm taking a few days' break, on a Agmatine cycle for tolerance and it's put a damper on effects while I lower my Serving Size a bit... Opinion Polls, probability and statistics, is a major field of study - had some ideas for weighted averages and things that might improve your testing.

Thanks guitartodd77!!
It was easier than I expected. I hope I'm chosen as I have never done this before, but I know this Vendors reputation - so my holidays will be happier

Hey Ballzdeep9!
I read so much about Agmatine last night that I went ahead and ordered some. I'm still 8-12 grams per day, but there was info about how it helps with pain too. Man, I hope this is true. I want to keep my doses low (cause my pain will get worse eventually).
I owe so much to this community. Thank you all for your dedication and your willingness to share info and experiences so generously

Very good kratom. Hopefully I can purchase some. When they open for all to buy the other vendors are going to have to step their game up ! The bar is set high!

I would HIGHLY suggest jumping on this opportunity. You won't find better kratom anywhere, or a better vendor.

Hi there! I have been testing, ,got to turn in 4 survey scores, ,but can't turn in results of last 2,,I've had problems logging in here,,I'm only able to now via the email poison sent. When I try to log in to survey, I get same problem, ,cause apparently that password is invalid and it's just frustrating! I have tested the green md AM 2 and wild Green hulu, , I'd describe both as a green ,the hulu is a bit slower and has a better moodlift than the maeng da, ,since I can't grade the numbers because of log in difficulties, I would give the hulu a 7 and maeng da a 4,,,again this is just a response to let you know I finished testing the 6 samples I received early last week. I recorded 4 results on survey, due to login issues with MM, I can't access the survey link. Anyhow out of the 6 I tested, ,only 2 were average, 2 were great for day use and green lovers,,and 2 were excellent, ,some of the best I've had this year!.The bent, chocolate, ,was the nodder, , anyhow ,I would say the tester pack was mainly green strains, ,except for the wild indo and bent,,I would be very interested in purchasing your product whenever that's possible, ,I have been using your samples in my rotation, ,I love reds and heard great things about red sumpar,,,anyhow I hope I can get the glitch in login worked out, ,it's too much a pain in butt,,, Thanks for letting me test your product gumbyke, ,I look forward to testing again, even more so,,purchasing! EDIT, I was able to access survey and record testing scores!

Hi Gumby,
I have heard nothing but wonderful things. I would be truly grateful to have the opportunity to test for you. I do not post many threads so I am unable to PM you. Let me know what I can do on my end to make it happen. Thank you!

I'm interested in testing, but I guess I don't have the minimum post requirement to send a PM. Is this only open to people regularly posting on here? Same username on reddit and should have posts in /r/kratom without going too far back in my post history, don't know if that would help at all.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know we will be replying to PM's tonight/tomorrow. We appreciate your patience in waiting for our response - we have a specific scheduled process we follow for testing. If you havent already, please be sure that you sent us the information we asked for in your first PM (Name, address, email address). This will help your test package to go out with our first test shipments (and avoid multiple back and forth PM's). Anyone who posted a comment saying you cannot PM - I will send you a PM shortly!
I also wanted to say thank you to everyone for the kind words and support! You have no idea how important the support of the community is to us!
