View CartOne of the difficult experiences in life is choosing between two similar things. This is a problem you may have encountered when trying to choose between Green Malay and Super Green Malay. So, what separates these two kratom strains, aside from the word “super”? That’s what we’ll dive into today, and you’ll get to understand what makes these two green strains stand out from one another.
What Is Green-Vein Kratom?
Kratom has three vein colors: white, green, and red. The color indicates the vein color and maturity of the kratom leaf. Green veins occur when the kratom leaves are of middle maturity compared to Red vein leaves, which are harvested later, and White vein leaves, which are harvested sooner than Green vein leaves.
The harvesting time affects the alkaloid profile and development. White kratom tends to lean more toward stimulation and energy, whereas Red kratom tends to lean more toward relaxation and sedation. On the other hand, green vein kratom tends to strike a nice balance between the White and Red veins, often providing an energy boost, a mood-brightening effect, and mental clarity enhancement.
What’s the Origin of Green and Super Green Malay?
As the name suggests, both Green and Super Green Malay are originally from Malaysia. The lineages are traced to Nibong, Tebal, at Kerian River’s northern bank. Both strains are also cultivated in Northern Borneo, Indonesia, and harvested from the lush rainforest climate.
What is Green Malay?
Green Malay is harvested from the mid-mature leaves of the Malay Kratom strain. When the veins under the kratom leaves turn from white to green, farmers start harvesting and processing. This strain has a distinct alkaloid profile, and Indigenous laborers have long used the strain to give them an energy boost while working in the fields.
What Is Super Green Malay?
Super Green Malay, on the other hand, is known to be a powerful, energetic strain. What differentiates this from the “standard” Green Malay is one thing: the potency of the leaves. The leaves of Super Malay have a stronger stimulating alkaloid ratio and are generally more potent. You may feel the effects as soon as 20 minutes after intake.
What Can You Expect from Green Malay and Super Malay?
| Green Malay | Super Green Malay |
|---|---|
| Mild boost in energy Mental clarity Moderate boost in mood More relaxing | Stronger boost in energy Enhanced focus Mild to moderate boost in mood Less relaxing |
Isn’t it funny how a single word could make something from the same species totally different?
Both strains offer similar energetic effects, clarity, focus, and mood enhancement. Both may give you that burst of energy to keep you going. This is why neither strain should be taken at night or in the evening (unless you work night shifts).
Super Malay, on the other hand, is claimed to offer more energetic and stimulatory benefits than its counterpart, whereas Green Malay is said to be more balanced.
Which Strain is Better for Me?
Green Malay is sought-after because of its balanced properties. It might fit you well if you’re new to Kratom, as it is often not as potent. It may also give you that sense of calm, giving you an added boost of mental clarity. Instead of stressing over what needs to be done and frantically multitasking like a headless chicken, you may see yourself calmly ticking off one task after another while being present in the moment.
Super Malay, on the other hand, may also give you the energy to get through tasks and help you focus more easily. Ultimately, you may be more productive and stress less about looming deadlines. It’s undoubtedly a good go-to if you need extra energy and focus, and it may be a preferred choice if you’re a shift worker or need extra energy to complete tasks.
How Much Should I Take?
| Strain | Dosage |
|---|---|
| Green Malay | 1g-2g; up to 6 grams max |
| Super Green Malay | 1g-2g; up to 5 grams max |
We’ve heard so many stories of what could have been a great experience because of poor dosage. Especially for beginners.
For both varieties, the best starting dose is between 1 g and 2 g. Wait 30-45 minutes before increasing the dose to 0.5g or 1g at a time while staying below 6 grams at a maximum. However, with Super Green Malay, the effects can kick in as fast as 20 minutes, while Green Malay can take slightly longer.
We highly recommend not going beyond 5g-6g of kratom per dose. Make sure you take note of your intake and evaluate your experience. This way, you’ll know if and when you need to adjust.
Kratom is a great botanical, but only when used wisely. Start low and gradually increase your dose. It’s easier to control your progress when you climb up rather than using too much and overdoing it.
You are unique, and your experience may differ from that of the next person, so always start low and slow. It’s better to listen to your body when it comes to dosing. Don’t ignore what you’re experiencing just because someone said the best results are at a higher dose. What you get from either Green Malay or Super Green Malay will be highly dependent on your system and your own unique biology.
Choosing Between Green Malay and Super Green Malay
The strain you choose will be the one that best fits your goals and needs. If your goal is to experience a more balanced effect, then Green Malay may be the better choice. It may also be a good option if you want a decent mood boost, calm mental clarity, and a notable boost in energy. The balanced effect possibly makes Green Malay a more suitable companion for common everyday activities.
Similar things can be said about Super Green Malay. Do you need to get things done in the day and feel you’ll be spent before half is done? Then, you might want to choose this strain. Especially if your tasks are mentally and physically taxing. Lack of energy is one of the enemies of motivation and productivity. With its potent, fast-acting effect, Super Malay may just be your savior when your energy tanks are drained.
Of course, aside from the dose, the quality of the Kratom you get is also a factor to consider. That’s why here at New Dawn Kratom, you only get authentic, lab-tested kratom produced in an AKA-GMP facility from strains imported directly from quality farms in Southeast Asia.
