thanks in advance!

I like spirit sciences premium red, Red 46 and if he gets it again red Sulawesi....mitra genie PRMD 7 is fantastic but he only sells it in kilos as of now...KTC red MD is real nice and real expensive lol

Are all these 'green' reds or bent colored reds?

Does Mitra Genie have a website these days?

nvm, I see he does but where's the freaking strain list?? Searching 'speciosa' does not good. What am I missing?

mitragenie.com You have to create an account and get your membership approved, then look under 'wholesale'.

I know... Why don't they just call 'em greens? Right? I mean the color of the powder IS green-ish.

REAL red colored, rusty color, powder is always manufactured. Either sun dried & oxidized, or fermented ... it seems!

Which is better? Green reds or brown reds? I think I had some mustard colored red hulu once. It was a nodburger.

I like green reds but brownish reds are better for pain. I have plenty of brownish reds and bents, looking for green reds now.

Hey there HH...If you go the Mitra-Genie route...PRMD7 is a Pain ASSASIN!...(a "green" red)...One of the better pain relief strains I've had in a long, long while (hell, maybe ever)! Also has a new Thai Maeng Da, that is just plain awesome...It's a mid/upper green though, but a VERY High Quality strain...mood lift, LONG Legs (and on sale for $60 a kg)...

I am brand new to his site, and he is only selling Kilo's now (which sucks), but both of these are worthy of a kilo buy...Someone is soon supposed to take over selling smaller amounts? Still waiting on more info about that.

Both of these strains are some of the better leaf I have seen this Summer!

The only leaf I have from Genie are some samples he sent me long, long ago. It was good stuff though.

I got a sample of the last batch of Premium Red in a trade- it was very good. I’ve got the new batch on the way.

I like it a lot too, I think the batch might have updated since I got it last month, but the one I got was a green in color and had some mid notes. The gold bali was a little more tan (not brown though) and slower.

I second this, PRMD7 is top tier, very very good for pain and also one of my favorites all summer. Unique profile, very low end but somehow not sleepy at the same time, super interesting stuff.

Any euphoria or mood lift with it?

thanks for putting this thread up. I would have to go with the plantation red hulu and dark elephant from kratom og. they are excellent. haven't had as much luck with any of the other reds from there

Soul red hulu and red md do me well for that back pain,along with the nerve pain in legs, ,all those aches in the bones,,so do the ones FireK mentioned, that I have tried,,ktc,spirit science,,I want to check out that mitra genie!

Keep an eye on Soul's website. When he drops the next batches of reds, check out the RJK (assuming it's on its way). I'm going to be all over that for the very reasons you asked about. Oh yeah, and the batch from July was green. Best red I've had in recent memory. The July batch will be hard to beat but I have high hopes.

Post by **herbalhippie** » Tue Aug 20, 2019 11:36 pm

Oh boy do I have a list.

Souls Red MD...I forgot about this one...It is indeed a very good greener RED...I think he still has a little stock of RMD, so keep an eye out for when he re-opens the store...I would think he might open back up soon, he was about caught up on his Friday night MASS of orders...It is a little faster though, but not much...just a bit above Mid maybe? Good call OT.

Post by **herbalhippie** » Wed Aug 21, 2019 8:07 am

I haven't ordered from Soul before. Got a couple orders in yesterday to SOSA and Spirit Science.

PRMD7 is def low end leaf for me, I don't get the full on rush that tends to come with something faster, but there is a perceptible lift during the first 1-2 hrs. His stuff (all of it I've had so far) is unique, it builds and builds over time, super long legs. I almost hate talking about it, shush shush... LOL.

BTW the hate in that other thread is TOTALLY unwarranted IMO--great guy, easy ordering process etc.

I really like STH's Red Bali. I love red's that are green in color. The rustic brownish reds and fermented reds rarely seem to do the trick for me.

Post by **herbalhippie** » Thu Aug 22, 2019 10:49 pm

So. Red MD and Red JK from Soul. I haven't ordered from him yet but I think I will when he opens up.

I see he's got some Premuim Red and Red Bali in stock. Any thoughts on those?

In the last couple days I've ordered from Spirit Science, SOSA, Speciosa Life and Mitra Man.

The Red Bali and Red Vein 2 are both supposed to be great but I haven't tried either however I should have them in my hands tomorrow and I'll let you know. You're looking for mid spec reds with good pain relief?

Yes I am! Thanks

Euphoria always a plus.

edit: Yes, Red Vein 2 not Premium Red. I'm getting strains from vendors mixed up.

I think I remember reading that you prefer to see a pic. The resolution isn't the best but I hope it helps....

I finally tried that July batch of RJK from Soul last night. It was very good. Euphoric and pain relieving, but with a clear head at the same time (If that makes any sense).
About to crack open my Spirit Science Premium Red that I just got out of my mailbox...

Post by **herbalhippie** » Fri Aug 23, 2019 12:25 pm

RJK.........

I have some SOSA Baik Bali out for delivery so that's going to be my mid-morning burn.

Post by **jabro70** » Fri Aug 23, 2019 12:47 pm

HH - if you got the Spirit Science Premium Red on the way, I think you’re gonna be happy when it lands!! My first impressions say it is outstanding!

Disclaimer: I have been awake since 2:30 am and the only other burn I had was Smiley’s Yellow Hulu at around 2:31am (I got called into work in the middle of the night), but right now the SS Premium Red is on the same playing field as the Soul RJK! It is Very Nice!!

My Soultanic strains land tomorrow- I’ll let you know about the Red Bali and RV #2.

Post by **herbalhippie** » Fri Aug 23, 2019 12:54 pm

I did. Premium Red and Red 46!

Excite!!

Post by **herbalhippie** » Fri Aug 23, 2019 5:08 pm

Whoever suggested the SOSA Baik Bali to me, thank you! It's quite nice!

Has a weird side effect though. It makes me feel short. Like I lost 5 or 6 inches in height.

Maybe I just need a nap, that's a distinct possibility.

Interesting. Good to know. I picked up 1/2 a kilo of it but haven't tried it yet. Focused on trying all the Soul Reds today.
