Lucky Herbals
Been meaning to post my reviews for awhile but I have to say that Ben not only has some of the best most consistent lead around this year but is one of the most genuine kind people I’ve ever met. Live in SA so I’ve got the pleasure of talking with him in person and his knowledge of this plant and the industry inner workings is simply mind blowing. The June batches of the Green MD and Green JK were easily the best leaf I’ve had this year. With his prices and the quality of the product it’s just hard to beat. Plus you have the pleasure of doing business with just a all around good human being that’s passionate about this plant and taking care of his customers. I can’t recommend Lucky enough. Superb quality. Consistently good. And just easy to do business with.

Re: Lucky Herbals
Yes it's very sad, especially on the South side of town. Austin's homeless problem is so much worse. I've never passed out fruit, but I have passed out kratom. Not kidding.
You should have hit me up! It would have been cool to meet you!

Re: Lucky Herbals
Sure thing, its not the last time and first time i will be going to San Antonio, i sure will let you know if i am going to be in the area, maybe next month. It also depends on a job on how long i stay their. How could i not meet my top 3 favorite vendor? I bet kratom for homeless was like candy from heaven. . By the way, i use your GMD 2g to drive everywhere. My favorite, gives enough energy to get any where i need too. Sometimes i stop by loves or pilot to get some red bull, i know i know their not good but i am just hooked on them and cant help my self. I love to drive at night better because of no traffic and GMD makes it a breeze, next thing you know your already at your destination. Oh and i am putting GMD into vegan pills. Best thing, i can take less and feel it. Chase it will plain water.LuckyHerbals wrote: ↑Sat Jul 31, 2021 2:49 am Yes it's very sad, especially on the South side of town.

Best advice for everyone is to pill Lucky's your best potent batch. When out and traveling, it saves so much time and dont have to taste kratom.

Re: Lucky Herbals
you feel more from less when using capsules? a lot of people say the opposite for caps, however I like them, they make Kratom extended release

Re: Lucky Herbals
Hell yea, hit me up! I also like to drink an 8 oz Sugar Free Red Bull with my kratom when I'm out and about. I always avoid sugar when I take kratom because it just makes me crash. I have also noticed kratom is extended release as well when in capsules. My belief is that it is actually being absorbed in the intestines vs the stomach so its more of a slow absorption.brave777 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 31, 2021 11:59 pmSure thing, its not the last time and first time i will be going to San Antonio, i sure will let you know if i am going to be in the area, maybe next month.

On that note, we are sending our Green Maeng Da powder in our next batch off to a co-packer to make capsules for us. It's a little expensive IMO, but we really want to add that to our menu. We will also be doing a member poll for 2nd and 3rd options for the capsules so there is a variety.

Re: Lucky Herbals
See, when your always on the road you dont have time to stop by and make a magic potion drinks with 4-6 grams, every 4-6 hours, its like you need hot water with you, honey and milk or OJ. Ideally its best to get most super potent batch and work with it. 2 grams for a driver can last 6+ hours easy, and time goes fast when your on the road, sometimes it will be 8 hours past and you realize you need more energy boost, as long as you got water on your side and kratom pills, zero time wasted and you didnt stop by any rest areas. And yes if you get regular kratom, you will need way more caps, thats why its important to get most super potent batch with high mitra %. You take 3 caps, and your good to go. It also depends how hard you cap your pills. I try to cap mine as much as possible. 15$ dolor 24 pill maker machine 000 on amazon. Not expensive at all. I mean as long as you dont over do super potent batch, their is zero chance feeling the edge where you need to lay down. Just be smart and conscious about how much you take and you will be glad you took less. you can always add 1 or 2 more pills if you dont feel much from 2 hour driving. Maybe you eat tons of food? Empty stomach always take minimum. Lucky i think hats a very good idea to sell capped pills, that would save me a lot of time as well. Also i ll have to switch with zero sugar red bull, i dont know why i didnt think that. I did have a crash, had to rest up at gas station. But red bull and kratom feels like its a super synergy for me. Anytime me driving to long, i pop a red bull and can easy drive 2 more hours. My favorite one is the "black full throttle" which i have not seen in a long time, i think they must of discontinued it so i am stuck with my second best choice.oftheshire wrote: ↑Sun Aug 01, 2021 1:16 am you feel more from less when using capsules? a lot of people say the opposite for caps, however I like them, they make Kratom extended release

Re: Lucky Herbals
I was just coming to give some praise to Ben also! I moved recently and he took the extra step to verify my née shipping address. I haven’t tried my order yet but I’ll edit this with my thoughts. I’d order from Ben 10/10, greatest business owner I know, genuinely a good guy.

Re: Lucky Herbals
Do you guys take 1/3 of your regular dose when you use luckys? I know brave preaches that and I’m getting some new luckys in, wondering if I should do my usual 6 or try 2-3 gs. Last time I had luckys (year ago or so) I was taking way too much per dose in general so I can’t really gage off that

Re: Lucky Herbals
Did half my reg amount of new GMD (3g) then added one around 30 mins. I can tell it’s a hit flav but just wasn’t enough, I’ll probably try 4 from the jump or 5 next time. That being said, I’ve never changed amounts for diff vendors before, I don’t change amounts when it comes to red vs green either. Anyone else like that?

I agree with you. I don’t change amounts for different vendors or strains by any more than 0.5g. My daily dose stays around the same, give or take 0.25-0.5g.oftheshire wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 5:02 pm Did half my reg amount of new GMD (3g) then added one around 30 mins.

Re: Lucky Herbals
I absolutely take less of all 3 most recent batches... 061421, 070721, & 072021. They are all crazy strong. I was able to lower my servings from 3x a day to 2x as well. As far as quantity, I'm taking 1 gram less than previous batches. I'm currently taking a break from them tho. They are definitely causing my tolerance to creep up, and I'm working on the second half of this batch release.

Re: Lucky Herbals
Ok good to know. I checked out the batch lab results but since I don’t know the %’s from any other vendor I use (I don’t think they give them?) it’s hard to compare to know when I should take a little more or less.
@ Lucky, I love the QR code system on your newer packaging. Do all of the strains have the same mit %? I’ve only seen that one list of the results.

Re: Lucky Herbals
This particular batch (072021) is the base green (Green Maeng Da) and the base red (no strains are 100% of this red) combined for the lab test. One supplier.oftheshire wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 7:17 pm Ok good to know.

The other half of the batch (072021-B) will be tested next week, and consists of 3 base colors, red, green, and white from a new supplier. It is not available for sale yet.

Re: Lucky Herbals
I always cut my dose on first try. Learned my lessons years ago with a freak batch that I now (I still have most of it) add just a pinch to my blends and it does it's thing beautifully. As for the Lucky I just got - I've only tried the GMD and one time. Went with nothing blended with it at just over half my amount. One time is not enough for a review but I got next to nothing from it. Seriously. So ok - the "take half" hype is bs from folks that use the word "quality" over and over yet never describe how they are affected- At All. After an hour I added some layers of different kinds I can rely on. Result - my headache was mostly relieved. No mood benefit. No other benefit but I felt the slow ones I added.oftheshire wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 5:02 pm Did half my reg amount of new GMD (3g) then added one around 30 mins.

I thought the GMD was fast? Someone soewhere said it was fast. It's not fast. It's dead center moderate far as I can tell. I laid down and took a nap. I was tired anyway and that can affect your burn but I felt the others. Just not enough of them. Lucky GMD looked and smelled fantastic. Completely flopped on me so I'm disappointed that I bought double the amount of that one - of coures- based on these damned reviews.

Re: Lucky Herbals
I definitely recommend you try it more than once before writing it off. If you still don't have any luck with it after a few tries, I'd come back to it at another time. So many variables can affect our experiences with this plant. Regardless, we always honor our exchange / refund policy. We have swapped out batches for a couple of people in the past. All is not lost. Please don't hesitate to reach out!Transformato wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 10:03 pmI always cut my dose on first try.

Re: Lucky Herbals
(do the quotes sometimes get out of hand? lol) I haven't written it off. Just the first burn. ...and the impression you can't help but have after. But yes you are right. .... even when all signs to point at the product... it's more likely circumstantial. My current favourites are ones I had some problem with at first. Expectation alone can be enough to throw a wrench. But it's not alone- been feeling lousy off and on recent days. And conventional logic doesn't work with everything so I won't try to nail the reason right now. I'll work it in different ways and at different times & let you know if it doesn't work out but I think that unlikely. I like how you are working your business.LuckyHerbals wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 10:43 pmI definitely recommend you try it more than once before writing it off.

Re: Lucky Herbals
Yeah those quotes are crazy haha...I usually reply on the computer and not my phone...and chop it down a bit. Anyway, yeah I totally agree. I have this Super Green from last September that was really popular with our MeWe group that never hit for me. I went back to what little I had left and it's legit one of the best kratom feelings I've ever had. I'm holding tightly to that little bit of 60 grams that I have left and using it very sparingly. LOL. And thank you for responding the way you did. Trust me, even the BEST kratom doesn't hit well for me sometimes. If I'm under extreme stress, lacking much sleep, or have just too much going on at the time, kratom just doesn't always hit the way I need it to. Just always know that your purchase with us should never feel like a mistake or a risk. I'm just speaking my mind, and not drawing any conclusions here. We went into this business to help people first, and make profits second. In the current climate our plant is in, every day is an absolute blessing....take care.

Takes me quite a while to be able to gage new flavs, but based off my first burns of red Borneo, GMD, WMD, and white Thai, white Thai is SO good. Was using a bit less than my normal amount too. Very impressed

white Octan and the 2.0 versions that i got from the past, anything over 2g is way to much. I did have kratom like that from other vendors but very rare these days, for sure i noticed from lucky kratom is very consistent.

Re: Lucky Herbals
I'm having trouble getting this GMD to hit as well, and his GMD has previously always been highly compatible with my chemistry, so yes, it's disappointing, but I know it's not the leaf, it's me. I also know that if I put it away for a while and come back to it, there's an extremely high probability that it will knock my head off eventually, as this has happened many many times. Denette's leaf is also known as some of the best around, yet it takes months for my body to get used to it for some reason, but once it does it's well worth the patience, so hang in there and keep trying my friend. \m/Transformato wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 10:03 pmI always cut my dose on first try.

Just wanted to clarify, your last order of GMD was 061421. Let me know if you want something newer. We have had batches 070721 and 072021 since then. I'm sure something will hit better for you.

Yep that's the last batch I purchased. I think I just need to give it a while Ben, I have no doubt it will hit great down the road. I'll certainly be purchasing some of the newest batches though as well. I'm just waiting a couple of weeks before I do because I recently experienced some rather hefty expenses. Is the stock holding up on these, or are they going super fast as well? I don't want to miss them. \m/
