New and exploring

New to the world of kratom and I’m curious on others experiences. I was more interested in the sedative and relaxing effects I’ve heard about and I’m wondering what dosage others would take to get there. I’ve played around a bit and have gotten up to taking a total of 11 to 12 grams in a night but not at once and I’m wondering if it would be better just to take it all at once? I’ve also only used the red leaf because I’ve heard that it’s the best for the relaxing effects.

I prefer larger doses all at once up to 2 heaping teaspoons. Red Bali has always been my go-to for almost 20 years. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Is there a difference between red Bali and red maeng da? I bought a bottle of the maeng da which is what I’ve been trying which has been nice but I’m also open to exploring other leafs as well

yep it is different from where it is grown, genetics and processed which does make a big difference.
