Description
Part of the 1st gen private batches. This green is something special. FRESH vibrant green powder with a fresh kratom taste. Let me (Chris) paint a picture for you: Mixing my normal 3g dose, my water lit up green- way more than normal but not quite concerningly radioactive like some powder I’ve seen. Went down pretty smooth, super fine powder. Not too bitter, but definitely not tasty. To set some context, my metabolism is pretty quick. Most “burns” for me (from good kratom) kick in about 15-20 min and last around 2 hours. The best gets me near 3. A legendary strain puts me towards 4hrs but that is exceedingly rare, like not even once a year.
15-20 minutes go by… almost nothing. “Damn”, I thought. A dud :/ …
30 minutes go by, there’s a faint warmth. Well at least it does SOMETHING.
45 minutes go by- the warmth gets stronger, it starts to feel about average. Still disappointed, but at least it did something.
1hr in: still climbing… feeling pretty good. Heady, smooth, super relaxing. My mind is starting to change from negative to positive about this green.
1hr 15 min: Holy hell is this still CLIMBING!? Feels like the first time I took kratom, and maybe even had a tad much.
1hr 30min: Yep it’s still climbing… please god get me off the ride now or I’ll get sick.
2hrs: Plateaued at an incredibly warm and fuzzy state where anything was going to be amazing. Playing a game, listening to music, drifting into a euphoric dream state… Dear baby jesus I hit the jackpot with this one.
3hrs: Still feeling it, with a little bit of fading. Maybe I was just getting used to the feeling. Hard to say but it’s been a LONG time since ANY kratom has lasted me this long.
4hrs: Effects finally started to fade down. About the time my mental alarm bells would go off for a dose, but I was completely content without. Entirely satisfied with this strain, and it earns a spot in the private batch among the best of the best.
Tester feedback indicated similar experiences, although individual experience will always vary. *Warning* if you don’t feel it as fast as usual DO NOT make the mistake of taking more. Solid relief, some of the best for mood and anxiety, not really a go-getter strain. It is low, slow, and pretty heavy footed.

I’m going to be totally honest and say that this one personally did not hit as hard for me as what it has for other people but I was fortunate to have been able to try this one during a promo without even being a member.
I have tried it a few times and will continue to experiment with it to find the sweet spot in terms of timing with food, etc. I know for me personally, this one can bring on a bit more nausea than for other strains.
I still highly, highly recommend this strain. I know it has done wonders for others, most others, so even though it didn’t hit quite as well for me, I know it will for you, especially those of you who enjoy the euphoric strains such as legends, euflooria, etc.
Wanted to see what all the fuss was about with Green Panda. What stood out was the overall sense of wellbeing it provided. Not super energizing but def saw positive effect on my mood. Happy Panda is a more fitting name. One of my top FAV
I always prefer mid to mid/slow leaf, and if I find a Gold or Green that fits that category, it’s a good day.
When I received a sample of the Green Panda, I was both intrigued and cautiously optimistic. Which is using a lot of extra words to say I gobbled it down like a fat kid eating cake. I can say that, former fat kid here, I get a pass.
Anyway, this green hits like a warm and fuzzy gold, but has that euphoric head space of good green. If ‘calming, motivated, feels’ came in a powder, it would be this.
Chris knows all things kratom. This is one of the best greens I have had.
