So recently just started to use kratom and love the effects would like to keep them as they are now. I do not notice that the first time with any drug is the best every drug ive ever tried it always feels the same each time, however im smart enough to allow time between doses of anything to keep the evil tolerance at bay and from building entirely. My question is will allowing a minimum of 3 days between kratom doses keep all tolerance from building or does it need to be longer. I use commercial bali and 5 grams gets me nodding pretty nicely ( I have had lots of experience with opiates) I will probably never go over 10 grams or use extracts. im currently waiting for some red veined thai so I can alternate types.
 
For most kratom tolerance builds slowly compared to opiates. Sounds fine to me. If your not using hard opiates you will most likely stick to the same dose for a long time with no need to raise it. Ymmv.
 
Not only does tolerance build more slowly it also drops quickly. If you find that your dose isn't working as well just take a week off and it'll be pretty much reset.
 
If 5 grams has you nodding then 10 grams will probably make you very sick. Tolerance as others have said builds very slowly. 5 grams of bali has been my go to dose for ~2 years of daily use. The few times that my doses increased were a result of craving harder drugs rather than actual increase in tolerance.
 
It depends on how finely ground your kratom is. From what I've seen a table spoon is closer to 10 grams and a heaping teaspoon is usually around 5 grams. Anyone using kratom should invest in a scale. If you are paranoid like me you can use a sharpie to write FOR KRATOM USE ONLY, NO EXCEPTIONS on the cover/lid of the scale.
 
Yeah every kratom user should definately invest in a scale, they're cheap as hell on sites like amazon, generally under $10. If for some reason you can't have a scale in your posession your gonna want to *at least* purchase a kitchen tsp measure, your household tbsp is quite a bit of varience. According to people who use a tsp measure these are ~2.5g give or take a few hundred milligrams so that's far better than standard tablespoon dosing. As for tolerance, Snake-Eyes said it well. Tolerance drops fast and rises quite slow.
 
My fine ground stuff was always around 2.5g per tsp. Around 7 - 8.5 Tsp.
 
Kratom really is a miracle drug it helps excessively with my back pain and its not as hard to move around lol for some reason I have an unusually low tolerance to any drug im thinking it might because of how light I am and my metabolism but im not sure. ive heard people taking bali up to 15-20g but when I get such a strong effect off of 5 I couldn't imagine and higher than 8. and ive had my fair share of opie addiction got clean for like a little over a year from a somewhat high tolerance (hydro and oxy some morphine) and I started chipping in them after a year and it seems ive had a total tolerance reset after trying kratom ive moved away from the hard opiates completely and really don't have much of a desire to go back
