smoking and usage

inhale · #1 (**permalink**) 10-10-2005, 01:30 AM

What gives the most THC in practice? In theory it would be a vaporizer, but in practice it might not be the case. I keep reading different articles. Here's what I have read so far.

* Please note that I am only speaking about the amount of THC / amount of Marijuana used. NOT health risks just as more or less tar, or the comfort/benefits of cooler smoke. *

Bong vs Joint
I read that the water absorbs SOME (yes it's fat, not water soluble) THC, which makes it so you have to smoke more in a bong to get the same effects as you would from a joint. I also read that some THC sticks to the inside of the bong and it doesn't all get into your lungs.

Vap vs Joint
A vaporizer has the same problem as a bong, the THC sticks to the sides of the container. So not all of it goes into your lungs. With a joint, the THC sticks to the rolling paper and you smoke it as the joint burns down. Making the joint just as effective.

So which is it? Can anyone who has lots of experience tell us what s/he thinks is the best and why? I have tried a joint, bong and I am about to make a vaporizer, but now I'm sort of discouraged. I personally like joints because they are fun to roll, fun to smoke and the best part, no clean up. Also they seem to get me the highest. I have a bong but I rarely use it, I hate cleaning up and filling it with water and all.

well, with joints, have you even noticed that everytime you hit it, the smoke is always going up into the air, and not in your lungs?

honestly, i prefer bongs, and if you think that THC gets stuck in the water and on the walls of the bong, then get a small piece with less water

I hafta point out an obvious disadvantage of joints. Joints lose much smoke to the atmosphere as compared to bongs, pipes, and vaporizers. Bongs and vaporizers get somewhat resinated, but not nearly to the point of the wastefulness of joints. Some people only smoke joint with lower quality pot because they feel it is too wasteful. Vaporizers are really the most economical in my opinion, they release the THC without burning all the plant matter, and in the burning 30-60% of the THC can be lost while the gentle heating of vaporizing releases the most THC in the purest way. Bongs I feel are also better than joints because it's a more efficient delivery, not as efficient as vaporizers though, those who've smoked vaporizers and have had a few experiences often concur with this.

Yes I know about what you guys are saying, the smoke being burnt even when you aren't pulling on a joint, and etc, but in practice, what gets you the highest? I've used my bong for a while, until my friend recently tried it and he says he gets way higher when smoking joints. So I tried a few joints and I was getting higher than I do with a bong. I'm not sure why exactly.

Very good points. ..i would have to agree, but if you want to get the highest, bong would do. (inhale: im suprised you get more high off of joints than bong). Bongs give you the biggest fuckin hits since it doesnt hurt your lungs so much ...and more weed is wasted with joints. So , i guess im saying that how high you get doesnt depend on how much thc is uses..its based on other things as well.

TheDudeAbides · #6 (**permalink**) 10-10-2005, 02:13 AM

i'd much rather pass around a bong and toke it then a joint. it just gets you higher. the hits are easier to hold and you can take alot more, alot deeper.

I haven't had the luxury of smoking a vape, but for joints vs bongs, I'd have to say that joints are more of a social thing. It's chill to be walking around outdoors, passing a joint or blunt around.

But since we're talking about THC intake, it would have to be about getting you the most high on the least amount of weed. And that would be a bong. Hands down.

auctaly, i hear that "One Hitter" that usualy come with dugouts are realy good when it comes to conserving weed (smoking the least the get you the highest)-

also some people say that gravity bongs are the best also-

i havent tried either one, but i might get a 1 hitter soon and ima make me a gravity bong once im done with my Sunny D that i just got from costco

Im a lightweight, but my fisrt time off a gbong, 1/5 of a dime and i was GONE. Usually if i make a blunt, 1/2 a dime will get me high, not as high as a bong will though. I love being a lightweight, its SO cheap and easy to get stoned.

Henry151 · #11 (**permalink**) 10-10-2005, 07:07 AM

I don't take a lot to get stoned, maybe 2 hits on good stuff, up to 7 on cheap stuff, which is nice... don't have to spend as much. I liked bongs best for a long time, I have several, and then I tried a joint and it got me high on just a few extra hits compared to normal, but it went down so smooth I loved it.. from now on I'm a joint person.

:EDIT: forgot to mention--someone said they was gonna make a vaporizer? How would you do that? have any online directions? I want to try one. :EDIT:

HerbsINtheBurbs · #12 (**permalink**) 10-10-2005, 03:37 PM

Vap -> Bong -> Joints

In that order. In my opinion.

But I prefer a bong out of the 3.
