when measuring out kratom when it is in powder form how do you tell if it is 5 grams?..scales are out of the question and the only thing SWIM could find online was about measuring kratom leaves in a spoon ha. ANY information yall could bestow apon me shall be greatly appreciated to the fullest.;)

one tablespoon of kratom powder weighs out to about 5 grams on my scale.

thanks man%)... what would you suggest SWIM doses with the first time? SWIM would like to reach the sedative effects that the plant has to offer rather than the simultaneous stimulation8o
 
you don't need to use SWIM here. i recommend starting with one tablespoon of the powder, waiting one hour and then re-dosing with subsequent teaspoons until you've reached the desired level of effects.

what would be the best method for maximum efficiency?
1. boiling it in water
2. eating it in yogurt
3. mixing it in everclear
4. ?..... anything else you can think of

i am pretty new to kratom myself so i don't know the best method of taking it. just eating the powder in yogurt should work fine though. boiling it might cause a faster onset, but only boil it at a simmer.
 
this is the 2nd post in 2 minutes where I've seen you go against bl rules. 1. using swim and 2. putting a price in a post. could you please read the rules, drunk driver? I know I'm not a mod or anything but i can't stand when people want to post on a forum before they ever read the guidelines, which are there/here for a reason. welcome to bl!
 
-Stop using SWIM, its stupid, makes people skip your posts, everybody knows its you anyway AND kratom isn't even illegal.


Also, boiling in water is probably the quickest way to get it into your system. I use tablespoons for measuring out powder as well, its a lot easier and less messy than using a scale anyway.

As far as finding the right balance between stimulation and opiate-like effects, it really depends on the person, my advice is to start low and then work your way up until you find where you want to be. The nice thing about kratom tea is it hits you quite fast and you'll know where you are.
