Kratom is classified into 3 primary categories-Green, Red, and White Vein. Beyond the color differences, the actual strains have extremely little difference between them. Vein colors are really more about drying methods and regions the product is harvested in rather than the physical color of the leaf's vein. Go to our “about Kratom” pages to learn more about the truth of kratom. There is only “Green, Red, and White”. Every strain such as Maeng Da, Borneo, Thai, Hulu, etc. is simply blends created by farmers and manufacturers. There are distinct differences, but you cannot depend on the name to define where the product originates from. We classify Kratom users into 3 general categories. There are exceptions to every category but these are the most common: Red Vein Lovers: Like myself, we find that Red Kratom helps us with having better days without causing tiredness or a “slowing” of the mind. We often find that Green and/or White strains are too energizing and easily cause the wobbles if we aren’t careful. For Red Vein Lovers, we recommend staying with pure red strains (Maeng Da, Hulu, Thai) or blends that are at least 50% red (Fuzzy Blanket, Ryujin, Ignite!, Golden Thai, and Mystery Blend). Middle of the Road: Middle of the Road users are those who often can do well on any strain whether it be Red, White, Green, or a blend. They typically use White’s and Greens in the mornings and during the day for added energy, and reds at night as a good relaxing tea before bed. We recommend a good assortment of strains. Any of the pure strains will do well for you. Try out some of our amazing blends such as Colorado Sunrise (Green/Red+White), Golden Thai, Apex, Electrobuzz, Fuzzy Blanket (for evenings), and Rocket Fuel. Energy Lovers: These users are often the people who have lower energy overall and want a “pick-me-up” to get through the day’s work. Or they find that White/Green strain’s actually bring a sense of calm and focus to their lives. If caffeine does this for you then we believe you are likely an Energy Lover. These users will like pure white strains as well as White Blends and White/Green Blends and perhaps some blends with some red as long as white is more present. Such as Electrobuzz, Rocket Fuel, Apex, and Ignite! Also, look into our New Infinity Enhanced strains if you are having trouble finding something you really like. We’ve found that while they contain extract, they seem to help lower overall tolerance when used conservatively (1-2x per day for a week or two with a few full day breaks.)
