OG tester here. If you still need anyone I'll be happy to do it.

Post by **Playerpiano72** » Tue Nov 17, 2020 6:58 pm

I think he is still looking. I emailed yesterday and he's going to send some samples, maybe you should email and inquire.

Did you email the support one? I got a reply rather quickly, but they are very busy

Post by **ybanurse247** » Wed Nov 18, 2020 12:58 pm

Playerpiano yes I emailed the support address

Hey Ybanurse sorry for the delay. We have a pretty thorough screening process we follow that helps us determine what type of tests volunteers are best suited for. With that, some volunteers are enrolled rather quickly, while others take a little more time. I know it sounds a bit much for something as simple as product testing, but our research is an integral part of our road to success... we must be purposeful and precise with this process.

If you send us a follow-up email and include your screen name (Ybanurse) Ill make sure you get processed quickly.

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Hey Gumby1, just sent an email if you're still looking for testers. Would love the opportunity to help you guys with the research. You guys rock!!

I can be a tester if still needed. I emailed the main address for TFH that was on my last order (July)

I'd like to also order if you are taking orders.

Post by **ybanurse247** » Fri Nov 20, 2020 11:19 pm

Just an update for anyone following....TFH did follow through and got right back to me after my post as promised. My testers are arriving Monday. Excellent customer service so far!

Can you place an order when you sign up for testing or is that option from October?

I’ll test either way, but will place an order if it’s an option

Post by **ybanurse247** » Mon Nov 23, 2020 2:45 am

Stax---I thought it said somewhere in these messages that you would be able to place an order for one thing off the menu just to offset the cost of shipping however when I received my email about joining (actually it was 2 emails filled w/ lot of info) there wasn't a menu or info about ordering so I just paid the $8 for the tester(s). It's not a big deal but would've been cool to have been able to order something from them especially considering that you can't just order, you have to have a membership and that is only available a few times per year. Oh well, being a tester sounds cool too.

You may make a one-time purchase with your enrollment as a tester! Please read through our original post (on page 1) for instructions on how to order, along with our menu (on page 1). If you need help, feel free to email us @ [email protected]

Thanks!

Thanks, Ybanurse for helping me see that perhaps our post wasn't very clear. I went back and edited the words "make a purchase" to "place an order" to avoid confusion that we were possibly limiting testers to only being able to buy 1 item.

Im sorry, there was some confusion there. Since you were unable to place an order, we would be happy to honor a 1-time purchase for you at a time of your choosing. The instructions for how to place an order are in the second half of the original post, just shoot us an email if you need assistance.

Thanks again!

I'm testing, and got to make an order with these guys again. Always a pleasure, and I'm happy to help, very positive experience the four times I got to order from them. Waiting to finish my samples so I can dip into the items I ordered from the menu.

Good morning Gumbyke1!!! I just want to say how excited I am to be testing and I received the one-time order you granted for being a tester. I am so completely in love with my leaf!! I would like to ask if there is a timeline available for when you might be opening up for new memberships and maybe a new drop? I would love to become a member!! I guess in life, as they say, the best things come to those who wait and I am waiting patiently for the door to be open for new memberships but it's HARD!!! I know there are others who feel the same way. Please let us know....thank you again for all that you do!!

Unfortunately, TFH has not ever yet, been able to just open up for new memberships!! They have although, in the past done some raffles, and contests and such where the winners are given a membership but that's about it. Your best bet is to continue joining the testing groups and learning which strains you like.... So that when they re open for the 1 or 2 week open houses for us double M members then ya know what ya wanna order already hopefully.... Sorry to burst your bubble, but wanted to give you the proper info!

Is that year 2022 a typo or are they not coming back to do sales for a whole year?

That was a late-night typo. Thanks for pointing it out, I dont think I would have noticed.

I sincerely appreciate the concern!! I have just had a multitude of personal and familial issues that have taken up most my time last few months both Covid related and not. But now things are kinda easing up and getting back to normal and I'm making my way back here to my home away from home, that I've definitely missed. Glad to see the forum has remained super active and have so many new members as well

Hello Good Folks!

I am reading quite a bit on the Double M boards about TFH's newest additions - in particular the reds. In particular about a Red Elephant Kali???

I keep a TFH menu on my desktop. I put it there during last Open Event. I don't see this particular item on my menu, so maybe my menu doesn't automatically update?

A long way of simply asking: anyone know where I can see TFH's newest menu without e-mailing and asking for it?

It seems that the Red Elephant Kali , which I didn't get a chance to try either lol, went got finished up a few days ago!! Gumby, mentioned elsewhere that particular strain had been same batch and in stock since about July I believe so it just finally kicked the bucket I guess hahaha. There's lots of good new strains in stock though as well as some good old solid classics we've all come to love....

It hasn't been decided yet. We are more focused on research at the moment...we will likely turn our attention sometime around February.

Thank You Catfather. Terrific.

And thanks to you too, Ace. I'm sorry I won't get to sample that one.

Hello All:

New member here ...My best friend has chronic pain from an incurable illness( breast implant illness )Shes trying to get off using opiates to but her pain is still immense. She’s tried hundreds of kratom vendors, all very hit or miss( BB, DG, Canopy, Herbal Salvation etc) so I am trying to help her. I scoured the Internet to try and find the best quality vendor out there for her and found this forum. After much research I found that Texas Harvest has by far the most positive reviews. I also noticed that it’s nearly impossible to become a member which is really a bummer. I’m not a member long enough to try and trade or buy their kratom from a member that has it and wants to get rid of some. If anyone on here would be so kind as to sell me some that you feel has good mood enhancing properties and great for pain I would be completely indebted to you. I’m willing to pay 2-3x the cost just to help my friend.

If anyone would be nice enough to help, please PM me( does this forum allow PMs ? I don’t even know)

Thx all and excited to be a part of the community

Post by **Playerpiano72** » Tue Dec 15, 2020 11:51 pm

You need 5 posts to be able to pm. As for trading, 10 posts and 30 days of being a member. Just saying, TFH is great but they are by far not the only vendor with good, quality leaf. I'd recommend checking out some of the other popular vendors here, I wont list them here, before paying double or triple the price of anything. Hope you find some help, you're on the right track... in my experience kratom is far more effective for pain specifically than narcotics, if I had the choice between kratom and hydrocodone for pain I would pick kratom everytime

Post by **onespeedstop** » Wed Dec 16, 2020 3:29 pm

I've only tried one TFH red (30 Year Wild Hulu) and it was solid for pain relief, but I have had better. Slightly better, I mean let's get real, kratom is kratom, assuming it's legit stuff and not 3 year old young leaves or whatever - then even the best is *maybe* twice as good as the worst ha-ha. I'd say shop around, check the reviews here and try the 2nd and/or 3rd best names. And of course keep checking back in Jan/Feb for the next TFH open event so you can sample theirs.

Oh, and maybe try some greens too, some of them are surprisingly potent and (also) work on pain. Stick around, post a bit more, and you can (join and) pick up some rare stuff in the trading area, including vendors who are *Private* or members only.

Welcome to MM. I think you've hit on a common "problem" in this business, we're always wanting stronger stuff...

naturally, and folks who use opiates, are really looking for that. But, kratom is kratom... as the saying goes. Kratom is not an opiate! So a guy, buys many kilo's from the best vendors here, including TFH... spends lots of $. Buys many "strains" looking for the magic leaf!! Finally gives up, starts shooting heroin again, and his wife is now selling a HUGE variety of kilos on the Trading Post here... probably 100 bags, quarter kilos, he opened every one to sample.

TFH is State Of The Art in pure, high quality, Indonesian kratom... In my opinion. He imports from many sources... Video cameras on-site there in Borneo... Has a consumer testing thing... Goes way further than 99% of USA vendors in being very particular about what he sells. But still - Honestly if your friend has already tried 100 vendors ?? and never found what she's seeking...

imo look into up-regulating her receptors? Folks who are opioid addicts/ chronic pain patients, really need help. Agmatine Sulfate does help (according to some chronic pain folks on Reddit), and there's also... Memantine? OR, Ultra Low Dose Naltrexone. Careful with that one! Research those on Reddit and or Facebook... good luck!

Post by **PinkLady1983** » Mon Dec 21, 2020 3:57 pm

Hi there new member here! I have a question about TFH. Is it member only? How do you become a member? And why is it member only? Sorry for so many questions, I am just curious!

Post by **Bradweber1982** » Wed Dec 23, 2020 6:25 pm

I am also curious how to become a member/order from Texas. Read through a lot of posts but got conflicting information

Post by **Playerpiano72** » Wed Dec 23, 2020 11:13 pm

TFH is members only and he is not accepting new members. If you want to order from him, wait until he does another open event.

Post by **ramfree27** » Thu Dec 24, 2020 3:49 am

I tried a few times about a year ago just to Register for these forums, because i wanted some Texas Family Harvest to try.
Sorry to hear that it's closed right now.

Now tonight i finally got in! I had hit a "dead end" about a year ago ... used two different email addresses, could not get in, and then it would NOT let me do anything because "that email address is in use"
