pay day today yay!
Anyway, some of the best kratom I got over the past year. I burn a LOT of different stuff, and I always get super strong effect, even blending the Agus' . I haven't tried SOSA's batch, yet, but hear it's good.I tried the Gold MD today and I actually enjoyed it very much (and I’m not normally an “MD” guy). It was kinda like the Yellow MD but just a little mellower. The Agus Red and Green Bone are great! Also enjoyed Red and White Sumatra and the Red Sunda, but the Super Green may be my favorite of them all.Uncle Rick wrote:

By the look of your dosing schedule, 1.6 is what is considered a energizing dose( even of reds) for afternoon, maybe kratom in such a dose ain't what you need for that time? Maybe consider chamomile tea, melatonin or valarian root
haven't had much problems with heavy strains in the past. plus i like to keep my tolerance low so when i eventually cut kratom i don't gotta deal with those damn cold sweats again X)thanks for the strain shoutouts. have yet to try indo/horn but this borneo is really settin me straightacejestyr15 wrote:I feel that SOSA has great reds all around and I'm kinda guy that hunts down the heaviest strains possible with my absolutely horrible insomnia!!! As far as the heavy strains go in order from heaviest for me would be Red Indo, Red Horn, Gold MD.... The other reds I would agree are daytimers although I didn't try the Red MD. In my opinion SOSA has some of the most well rounded and consistent line up I have tried so far this year, not that other vendors haven't had some great strains but SOSA seems very consistent with the string dry niche I guess!!!
glad i finally pulled the trigger on sosa this string dried is tasty.
I tried the super green yesterday in a blend, and the euphoria was overwhelmingjabro70 wrote:The Super Green was a high-energy Green with a great mood - that’s a rarity in my experience. Most high-energy strains make me irritable as hell.
You only sampled one of the 4 strains I considered to be stand out from the rest.... But hey that just me like you said lol. Glad you have the same opinion on their consistency at least tho!!labdog03 wrote:So, went along with the recent SOSA hype and got a sampler. Maybe just me and my long time user tolerance, but his leaf was good, just not anything really super special...to ME...I will say though that every single strain I have sampled so far WORKED...and is good, does what it should do Kratom...so that is a really GOOD thing...just nothing that said to me, "O my, I have to get kilos of this stuff"...also, I have only tried these ONE time, so need to re-visit them to form a better opinion. I also need to grab some of the Yellow MD and Super Green, as those seem to be getting above average results for some. Also would like to sample more from SOSA later in the Summer, AFTER the wet season...but it was very nice to have ALL the samples I got actually be decent. I could see this being a GREAT source for our newer users. (nothing more disappointing than getting a sampler and half the strains not work for you) I will re-post if anything jumps way up there after re-visiting the strains...I tried Red Bone F11, Red Sumatra, Red Horn, GMD, Green Sumatra, Green Horn and Green Bone F5. If anything stood out a bit, it was the Bone strains (on 1st try anyway). SOSA definitely stays on my "Good Vendor" list!
I've only had 1 of the 4 "strains" you ordered and that is red Sumatra, which I just got this past week and haven't tried yet but the general consensus is you'll probably like most of those, I can't recall seeing any negative reviews, hope you enjoy them and let us know either way.Uncle Rick wrote:mine should be coming tomorrow! woohoo!!!@.@

I usually get my reds from Mystic since they almost always work for me and i have bad luck with other vendors (for instance RVA reds may as well be dirt, does nothing). Are Sosa's reds fermented (i don't like) or are they fresh and green? I may end up trying him if MI never get a restock. Just a huge risk for me because i don't have any extra money to be experimenting and if i end up with a bad kilo, well i'm fucked. I LOVE his split kilo price - 4 way for 75! I wish i had tried a sampler from Sosa instead of my last purchase of RVA :/
Yes they are fresh "green" reds...I haven't bought since January but I really like red indo and red sunda...also enjoy RMD and green borneo...the F11 is also greenish, a tad slower than most of the string driedZeedra wrote:So is the consensus that Sosa has good reds?

The White MD and Red Bali were stand outs I guess you could say. White MD was more like a green. Not your typical fast Whites, but even that only lasted a couple hours.
Yes I pretty much freeze every single dose.... And I use ballz' method just kinda tweaked to my liking a lil bit is all!!Oletimer wrote:Acejestry,,you freeze your tea doses?? I am going to try ballz tea freeze method,,maybe that's the trick to draw all the goodies out of this string dried stuff,,,I've always shaked my doses with sunny delight,,,I am going to try that, ,I have a feeling that's the problem, I got to find that recipe balls posted!
Hmm I react well to all kinds of kratom. Reds and greens only (never tried other veins). I've had greenish reds work the best but lizas red md was the first brownish red that was exceptionally uplifting.Oletimer wrote:nothing more disappointing than getting a sampler and half the strains not work for you) labdog,that's it in a nutshell, ,I thought at least one of the reds would work, that's just me,,and zeedra,,if you are a fan of mystic island reds, you might enjoy sosa reds,,as mystic island reds didn't work for me either,,the powder of sosa is a lot fresher than mystic,no grit,,and they are green like mystic, ,probably greener,,,if that's what you like in a red,,you'll love it! My personal preferences for reds are the ones that look like the color from Inland and kog,,lately smileytime, I don't know if I would try more of sosa greens,they are popular, but I like to get at least 1 red in my orders,
Thanks so much for the heads up I really appreciate that, as I have been loving most everything I have received from SOSA thus far!!Brad frerichs wrote:Sosa just restocked today. New strains green banjar being one of those.
The new batches aren't dried the same as the "string dried" ones, has anyone had any experiences with these? How did they compare? I know that some people here don't really like the green reds( I do..but,) are they the brownish-bent colored ones everyone has now?Brad frerichs wrote:Sosa just restocked today.

Man, I have been getting super strong burns off ACV freezing .. SOSA's Red / White Sumatra. Again its letting it steep in very hot water in a coffee cup w/ 1 Tsp ACV for around 1 hour. Then cooled down I add a lil' baking soda to neutralize the ACV.. Pop in freezer.. Next day or whenever (I keep a few days' in freezer always.) Thaw dose and it's very reddish.. as compared to using citrus.. I'm starting to think "the redder the better".acejestyr15 wrote:I pretty much freeze every single dose...
