Different types of Kratom strains on a table.
Kratom has three strains, Red, White, and Green.

Kratom Colors

The Mitragyna Speciosa -plant, commonly called Kratom, has three naturally occurring types. If you look closely at a kratom leaf you will see that the stem and vein have a certain color that ranges from various shades of green to red and white. Kratom types are generally divided into different strains according to the coloration of these veins. These are red vein, white vein, and green vein strain. There are consistent differences in the effects of kratom that correlate to leaf vein coloration.

The color is determined by the presence of different alkaloids in the leaf. One Mitragyna Speciosa tree can have different colored leaves at the same time. This is affected by the maturity of the leaf. In other words, different color leaves occur in the same tree at different stages in the lifecycle. Also, the amount of sunlight the tree receives has an effect on the coloration. As well as other environmental factors like humidity and soil composition.

When harvesting kratom in a sustainable matter, the farmer handpicks the leaves while maintaining the wellbeing of the tree. They take only the mature leaves leaving well and prosperous. The farmers then separate the leaves based on their vein color before moving to dry and crush the leaves.

Effects of Different Types of Kratom Strains

Both modern uses and testing as well as reports on traditional usage clearly show that Kratom has a wide variety of effects. Kratom contains over 40 different alkaloids, the most known and studied ones being Mitragynine and 7-HydroxymitragynineA growing number of academic articles and scientific research are starting to confirm the legendary powers of Mitragyna Speciosa

In herbal healing, these active alkaloids have known to have both stimulant and sedative effects. At low doses the effects are uplifting; the mind is more alert and happy and physical energy is increased. When lifting the dose there is more calming sensations; less sensitivity to physical or emotional pain and a comfortable feeling of wellness.

The fundamental kratom effects are consistent through all colors. This is to say all kratom shares the same reasons why kratom is loved all over. There are only subtle variations between the different kratom colors. Rather there are differences in the alkaloid profiles that create variation. The effects observed can also vary noticeably from one user to another.

The factors affecting the end results are numerous. The most important one is naturally the alkaloid content of each strain. The subtle difference in the genetic variance that we can see is the different colors of the stem and veins of the leaves. Still, the biggest factor is personal preferences and tendencies. The best way to find your perfect match is to try them out.
