Here are my trees from this summer. They're now under T5 lights indoors. After chopping them back and bringing them in, my dried and powderized clippings weighed out to 82 grams! All the large trees are rifat and there's a small pink vein indo.

Damn I was thinking of trying to grow some once it got warm again, but If I have to grow that many trees for just two or three days worth I might be better off just buying it. I need to get my tolerance reset somehow.

hey folks. i recently received a couple cuttings and am trying to get them to sprout some roots. i threw them in a monotub with about an inch of wet coir in the bottom. it's setup just like it would be for mushrooms but i have the poly quite a bit tighter. i'm just wondering if ya'll have any tips for getting them roots out.
they were sent to me by a member who said he coated them with a rooting hormone, let them dry and then shipped them to me. i received two of them along with three salvia cuttings. they all went in the same tub and all the sallies have since sprouted nice roots and been planted in soil. the kratom however, appears to be just sitting there. it's probably been two weeks or so.
any advice would be much appreciated

I used a non modded tote. Filled with a inch of water.
I rooted some in (coir/worm castings/perlite) clay pots/plastic drinking cups. Some in just plain tap water in a plastic drinking cup.
Place the the pots/cups in the un modded tub and pop on the top.
After rooting i moved them to a actual sgfc. After a week i removed cracked lid. And so on. Eventually removing them and acclimating them to my climate.

Im a newb so let the others chime in to make sure you get it extra right.
Oh and keep them out of direct sun.

Give it more time. Kratom will either root in a couple of weeks or not all. Thats been my experience at least.

Also if the stems turn brown.
I cut about a half inch above the infected area and placed back into water/soil.
Keep a eye on them because once they start turning brown it will progress quickly if you dont catch it.
Dont get discouraged though.
 I cut maybe four inchs off trying to get this baby to root. Took me over a month.

Sure could use some help and advice. Got this Kratom clone about 6 weeks ago has been doing fine but now suddenly edges of leaf are dying and edges of leaf have slight yellowing can't really see in the picture. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. I fear I'm losing this one

Bug damage maybe. Spray it down with some type of bug killer no? Im just eliminating causes. Mime currently has leaves leaves worse thsn that but its a big tree that has been exposed to cold temperatures. Id monitor that closely. If you havent really messed with it much i see no reason why it would just die. They are pretty hard to kil in my experience.

I may be wrong. But i agree with ferrels first guess they are chilly.
They may need more humidity until they get used to your climate.


Had to turn the heat on for my babys today but you can see where the cold has got to them a little.

More than a year. Tricky part is summer time when daily waterings are a must. I got that timer and irrigation setup to help me with that when im away.

They have a sweet banana smell to them. I want to make a tea with these.
Yeah banana smell doesn't sound good to me, reminds me of bread mold. If you're gonna use those leaves maybe boil them in a tea just in case
nanner smell is normal. all my fresh kratom smells this way. It smells goooood! 
I just brewed some tea and used 6g of the sun dried bumblebee leaf. I have drank 3/4 of the brew, going to wait about 10 before I drink the rest. My tongue and throat are numb right now.
