Using ice in your bong

  1. I almost NEVER have ice in the bong. It's not my bong ever, I use a vaporizer and a pipe that looks like olaf the snowman from frozen. Also looking to get a recycler.
    But is it worth it to use ice? Like if you had access to it, yes go for it. Or is it preferred?

  2. when I have the chance ill put ice in a bong, though i usually just vaporize
     
  3. Does anyone here think that the intense cold from the cubes might turn the combusted THC back into a solid state?

  4. I was thinking that too when I first heard of ice in bongs.

  5. Idk I guess it's just one of those things I think of. I do not think the same if the ice is down in the water of a bong.

  6. I think it makes it smoother and idk if you have an ice catcher than go ahead. Too much ice is actually bad for you because I read the little particles on the ice are sharp and fuck with your lungs.
     
    Use lessthan 3 cubes.
     
  7. Me and my brother both came to the conclusion that the ice was making our hits harsher on my old bong. Our guess was that the ice cubes condense the smoke so you take a larger hit then you realize/feel

  8. I know I always love ice in my bong with my ice catcher. I find the cooler smoke has a much different taste and texture than hot smoke and I like it better. It's something I enjoy if I can do it without too much effort, but it's not like overly important or anything. I would say try it once to see how you like it. It's more a matter of personal preference than anything.

  9. Warm water works best in my experience. Not necessarily hot water, but warmer than room temp.

  10. I used to use a couple cubes in my bong or I would get crushed ice and add it directly to my bong water to cool the hit down. Either works, I preferred the chipped ice in bong water because when it melts you know you're not going to flood your slide because you can already see the displacement, ice expands so it won't overflow if you already add it to your bong water.
     
  11. i'm not a scientist but i feel like once the thc is converted to thc-a (i might be backwards), it can't go back
     
  12. Well the thc was already activated through the lighting of the bowl so even if it did change it would still get you high. I'd think that the smoke would have to be by the ice for quite awhile for it to be able to change. For example boiling water thrown outside at neg temps turns to snow so I believe that the extreme temp difference would also be needed with the thc.
