Effects - Different Strains, Different Effects. What does What?

[marksebay1962]

Hey SWIM just started experimenting with kratom.

First leaf purchase was Maeng Da Pimp Grade. cheap so SWIM thought why not try out stronger stuff.

SWIM liked it alot. Big stimulant. SWIM runs alot and 7 mile runs felt like SWIM was floating. Cramp pains nulled. Speed increased, Fatigue down.

Swim is calm but feels very awake, happy, and pain is less painful.

SWIM usually did 3.5-4 grams

SWIM read thai is a more stimulating strain, and red vain is more potent and more stimulating. SWIM tried red thai and is dissapointed. Nowhere near Pimp Grade. Euphoria is there but SWIM is more sedated.

SWIM just read on a sticky here that Thai is more sedating. Great, now SWIM is more confused.

Can anyone set the deal straight for SWIM.
Which strains are more stimulating, euphoric, sedating etc.
Bali,Indo,Thai,Haiwain,MeangDa,Malay,
Green vein White vein Red vain

SWIM is thankful for responses

Never heard of Hawaiian Kratom.

In SWIM’s experience, the most stimulating Kratom’s in order are:

Malay
Thai / Super Maeng Da
Indo
Bali

there are so many different strains with different vendors calling diff. names it would be just about impossible for anyone to say definantly what is what...unlike cannabis were indica is more sedating, etc....kratom is called different names by multiple vendors selling the same thing...make sense...the only certain way to tell is to order small amounts and when swim finds one they like , swim might order a kilo or so

SWIM is interested to hear that Maeng Da Kratom is a nice stimulant. She has trouble getting her butt up and out of bed in the morning, and sometimes can be unmotivated. She hopes that the Maeng Da Kratom she recently received will help her out.

She plans on trying some tomorrow and finding out!

She also got a free sample of "Super Green" Thai Kratom, which she assumes is Green Vein, and ordered some UEI as well. SWIM has heard that UEI is the most energetic of the Kratom strains, and one of the most preferred. She has read that Bali Kratom however is more of a sedative, but can cause nausea at times. Though many others do prefer this kind.

SWIM hopes to experiment with them all, to see which suits her the best. ^_^
