Red Indo (aka Sumatra, Riau)
Strain Breakdown
Pros
- May offer a balanced range of effects

- Could be less sedating than other strains

Verdict
Red Indo’s seemingly broad effects profile could make it ideal as a balanced red strain.
Red Indo seems to offer a balanced blend of effects while being noticeably more stimulating than other red kratom strains.
Most users describe Red Indo as moderately euphoric and sedating. In low to moderate doses (1-5g), it can elevate one’s mood and promote relaxation. However, for other users, Red Indo appears to be quite stimulating, leading to feelings of increased energy and motivation.
Red Indo also seems to offer effective pain relief, although it might be less effective than other red kratom strains. In addition, its duration of effects could be somewhat longer than average. Red Indo doesn’t appear to be more or less nauseating than other strains.
Due to the subjective nature of kratom and personal variations in body and brain chemistry, your experiences with this strain might differ from the average user.
🤓 FUN FACT:
Kratom vendors and users often label or market Red Indo as Sumatra or Riau kratom.

Regardless this Red Indo is B, O, M, B,bomb squad level of niceness. Had a rough day, felt stressed and incapable at the end of it. Just about 3-4 g so far of red Indo and I have a beautiful sedative high, almost like a benzodiazepine minus the awful brain fog that makes me a robot. This shit is very, very nice. I highly recommend it and wish I had a lifetime supply. Only taking off .01 on the score because it smells like a caveman got killed and then burned in a bathtub with garbage for starter fuel and skunk spray for ambiance. Of course that’s an overstatement but this shit reeks. Of course I used to hate the smell of weed and now it smells like Jesus kissing my nostrils with his golden god lips so things may look up!

I got some a few days ago and it’s ok, actually gives me the wobbly eyes if I take to much. I work 12 hour graveyard shifts and usually dose 3 times a night after the second dose of this I get kinda strung out/shaky feeling. I will say my first dose today was nice and euphoric.

Not even 15 minutes after drinking my tea, I already feel a heightened sense of well being, relaxation of my muscles, and my mind is quieted from the usual noise. I will report back with duration and more once I have tested the white strain tomorrow morning so I can review that one as well.

Obtained sample of Indo Red Vein, what I thought was supposed to be one of the more relaxing-sedating strains. I first started with 2 teaspoons = approx 10 grams, but was feeling a little too speedy. An hour later, on the rule of thumb that more kratom = more sedation, consumed another 1 teaspoon. Not long afterwards I felt as if I had taken amphetamine. Hours later still too speedy. I have found that two teaspoons of Red Borneo was just the right dosage for me. The Indo was purchased from mmmmSpeciosa. The Borneo from HB & M. Any thoughts on this?

Every type of Kratom that I’ve tried from mmmspeciosa (Bali, tawa tua, red/green/white vein indo) has made me feel exactly the same with varying degrees of intensity. They all give me an energetic, slightly less euphoric opiate-like high, with Bali being the strongest and longest acting. I never get a relaxing feel. I really wish I could find a legal relaxation high.

Tried the Red Indo. Pain free, fairly energetic, and feeling good!

I founds its effects to be almost entirely sedating, but only mildly so. It was a decent mixer and alright for chilling out at the end of the day but didn’t really accomplish the deeper level of high I seek from kratom.

I wanted to wait until after work, because I wasn’t sure how sedating this would be. I made it to 3:30, and I took 3g. Within 20 min I was feeling the effect. For the first time in about 8 months, I had that wave of warmth and happiness wash over me- but the best part was that the pain was ACTUALLY GONE for hours!!! This peace lasted for about 3 hours, and then the decline was gradual for another 1.5 hours.
During this time I felt more relaxation, although I wouldn’t say that this would knock me out. But- as I have a hard time sleeping (I read the same books for hours at night, just to get tired), I was impressed that the effects were still strong enough to help me skip my nightly ritual and just close my eyes.

The Super Red Indo is very sedating, and feels most like an opiate buzz out of the whole bunch. Good burn to sit and watch a movie or listen to music. I use kratom for pain relief for a chronic liver condition, and it works great on my stomach. I almost want to go to sleep on it. Fuzzy and warm feelings, but not much of a mood changer. 2/5 energy, 4/5 pain relief, 3/5 euphoria, 2/5 mood.
