Yellow Indo (aka Sumatra, Riau)
Strain Breakdown
Pros
- May increase mood and energy levels
- Could help combat lethargy and fatigue
- Potentially above-average duration of effects
Cons
- Could be less pain-relieving than other strains
- Milder nature could be underwhelming for some
Verdict
Supposedly euphoric and stimulating, Yellow Indo may elevate mood and energy without causing fatigue.
Supposedly, kratom farmers create Yellow Indo by “curing” White Indo in the sun. The process invigorates the leaves with new colour and properties, turning White to Yellow.
Yellow Indo kratom seems best described as moderately euphoric and somewhat stimulating. In low-to-moderate doses (1-5g), it can elevate one’s mood and energy levels. At higher doses, however, the strain could become more sedating.
Like most yellow kratom strains, Yellow Indo’s pain-relieving potential seems limited, especially in comparison to other strains. Its duration could be slightly above average, with effects lasting about 3.5 hours at moderate doses (2.5-5g). Currently, there’s no evidence suggesting that Yellow Indo is 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 refer to Yellow Indo kratom as Yellow Sumatra or Yellow Riau.

Yellow Indo – I took a packed 1tsp (weighs out to about 3.2 grams) from the measuring spoons you get from some sites in the morning before work. While driving in I started to feel a warming of my body and a little pep. In the first hour I got some nice energy but there was no dulling of pain. I have a bad left shoulder (I don’t know what it is but it hurts to lift things up high) and a right elbow with tendinitis and I always felt the pain. The energy subsided and left a nice glow after a few hours.
Dose 2:
Later on in the day I took a packed tablespoon (weighs out to 7.8 grams) about 30/45 minutes after eating a sandwich. This time it came on slow over a 3-4 hour period to peak but there was definite opiate everything is good in the world feelings about 30-45 minutes after ingesting. When it did peak, yowzas! This stuff is strong and I felt like melting into a chair. At one point I thought I had taken a little too much but I worked through it. When I finally got home I was dozing off and just feeling great. This stuff is energy at lower doses and sedating at higher but like I said there was still pain during the whole trip so for me it’s not for pain.

Just wanted to give you all a heads up that this is some really, really good kratom. One of the best I’ve ever tried. I am in no way affiliated with them but I ordered a kilo. Wow it is good. Lots of euphoria and pain relief. Energy, but not jittery energy.

The Yellow Sumatra is fantastic as well, everything I have come to expect from this strain & vendor. More relaxing than energizing I would say, it’s very solid. On a scale from 1-10, the GB: 11/10 and YS: 9/10.

I love yellow sumatra. Better than any cup of coffee. The one I got is from Happy Hippo, when I was but a noob. I found it to be more stimulating than white strains.

Yellow Sumatra from Green Harmony. Literally every yellow I’ve had has helped with my anxiety and has some mood lifting effects, but everyone’s different.
