First time dabbing

Discussion in 'General' started by thehighkite, Mar 25, 2015.

  1. Well, I recently bought my first gram of wax, and I must say... GODDAMN. It was like getting high for the first time all over again.
    If you have a cool story about your first dab experience or if you just want to share about how it felt, I want to hear about it! I think I'm hooked now.
     
  2. My first dab was sophomore year with my friends. We were getting wax from this older dealer and we was like he'd throw in a nail for us for like 30 so we bought it but it didn't fit. Ended up with us buying his old rig that had a broken joint but the domeless covered it so it still worked. I wish I had a picture but that rig was so dirty and gross this kid must've been dabbing out of it daily for years and never cleaned it. We went to bed bath and beyond to get a crem brûlée torch (which is the way to go btw it works the same and costs like 20$ less than the ones at a headshop) but got carded for butane so we drove to a local headshop (doesn't card) to get butane. Went back to my friends crib and dabbed for the first time.

    Crazy shit, my reaction was like damn this feels totally different than smoking bud. Idk I had a fucking fantastic time but never bugged out/passed out like I hear a bunch of people there first time. I had one friend that threw up or bugged out each time when he first began dabbing. Only negative for me was I coughed like a bitch haha.

    Personally I like wax better than bud. I got a small dual use rig and it's just so convenient to have at my house. Like going out and dabbings hard cause you gotta bring everything but at your house it's great cause since there's no smell you don't have to go outside to smoke. Also I like how many different types of wax there are and like the different textures and shit.

    I agree that I like it better, but flowers will always have a special place in my heart lol. I had a bong already, so I just bought a nail and a torch and set off on my exploration to fadedville.
    Also, I don't see how people throw up from smoking bud. It usually calms down my nausea and what not. Weird.
     
  4. Mine was pretty cool. I have only dabbed one time. Had shitty wax before, but just topped bowls with it.
     
    A roommates friend came through, and he was just at a cannabis cup in Seattle. Brought some of the stuff that was entered in the contest and he had a little bubbler rig. Took 4 dabs while passing our vape around. Got high as fuck, but I've been higher before [​IMG]
     
  5. Hm... So cannabis cup stuff isn't the best stuff out there? I always thought that cannabis cup made stuff was the top of the line shit.
    I used to top my bowls off and then found out it really doesn't do all that much. I began caking the wax between bud, but I just didn't get the same feeling as taking a pure dab of wax. I also used to put screens on my bong's bowl, put ash on it and smoke the wax like that, but the lighter fluid taste was too overpowering, so I ended up buying a nail. My new rig specifically for dabbing is coming in soon though, so I'm stoked. :)

    It was very good wax, definitley the best I've seen in person. And I'm sure it was basically top of the line of what is out there. It got me really high. Just saying, I've been higher before, and it wasn't like it was my first time smoking.
     
    And the shitty wax I was talking about was completely separate stuff I had years ago. Glad you're enjoying it though and bought a new rig. That will be dope!
     
  7. Really? For me 1 dab = great start, 2 dabs = perfect chilling/functioning high, 3 dabs = lit as fuck, 4+ dabs = reaching new levels. I still always get super high off bud but my highs off wax have always been much more intense if you know what I mean?

  8. I know what you mean. It's more concentrated, so each hit is way stronger. I had a high tolerance to weed at the time though. I was vaping at least 5 bowls a day, and some days over 10.
     
    Also, the highest I've ever been (by far) is edibles.
     
  9. dabs have destroyed my tolerance

    First dab was with a buddy who also dealed at the time. It was about six months after I started smoking. I drove a friend of mine over to the dabber's house and thought it would just be us 3. It was a gorgeous summer day. We arrive and it turns out it's dabber's gf + sister + her bf + 2 randoms. I'm not much of a group person, but I went with it. I was def nervous af.

    He took us into his bathroom and turned the fan on and I think I got the first hit? Hard to say. I believe I cleared it/almost cleared it. Immediately after I felt the heaviest oddest feeling in my chest, and my ass dropped to the floor. Nearly blacked out, but remained conscious and my ass was glued to the toilet for the remainder of everyone else's dabs. Definitely left me with a nice ear to ear grin, and I believe he had some nice Cherry Pie with him (bud) that we ended up smoking. There was a bowl pre-packed as everyone was waiting for us outside. I ended up feeling right to also pack a bowl, unloaded my shit, grinded, and got to smoking.

    I was blazed outta my mind, no kidding. We went to a park like 5 mins away and it was a task to get there. We enjoyed it for a good 30 mins and then went to waffle house. Only thing that bothered me was my buddy's friends seemed to not treat him super well, but yea.

    I don't dig dabs all that much though. I've finally got a nice hookup for the stuff but it shoots my tolerance sky high, and since I'm not in a medical state, I just can't afford to do it. Plus I really do have a soft spot for flower. Doesn't mean I'll pass up a dab if offered though!!

    It's weird though, with like a med tolerance 1 dab=meh, 2=chill af but reasonably stony,
    3= I don't feel anything at all?, 4=back to 2 but only slightly more noticeable. Like I never understood why my stuff never really shot me through the roof incrementally. I always plateaued. Flower can be the same way for me sometimes. Like I can smoke a fat bowl, be in a great place and ride it out till the comedown and when that rolls around--smoke again and feel nothing? I get good stuff, but iunno.

    Around me it's actually cheaper in terms of price per high to smoke wax. Also I feel the plateau thing but that's after like 5-6 depending on my tolerance. I also dab a good amount so it's not like my tolerance is super low, but recently I stopped for like 3 weeks cause I was just so busy with exams that one dab will give me a great time.

  12. i also think it's starting to be worth it to spend more money on wax because the high lasts way longer which means my wax lasts way longer opposed to flower. :p
     
  13. My first dab was at my job during junior year of high school. I worked at a ski hill and worked the coral. One of the supervisors brought his dab pen to work and let me get a hit and holy shit it was amazing.

  14. Lucky! I wish my coworkers partook in such things lol.
     
  15. First dab was with a close friend about a year ago in the back of my English class out of a pen of some sort haha. I definitely wasnt expecting to be so ripped so fast from 2 hits. After doing them almost daily from then on i found that i would barely get high from flowers so i had to take a break haha.
     
  16. this nigga stated it flawlessly.
     
    @OP except when i first started + a few weeks after if i took too big of a dab i would cough so hard then waste my whole high due to a panic attack making me think i'm going to throw up. so i recommend going light on the dabbing, as it kills your tolerance a lot faster than bud. also learn about low temp dabs and carb capping. you wont cough or burn your throat and the flavor would be intense, like tasting pure bud. pungent is something you sense with your nose but with low temp dabs the word pungent will be something you taste. its legendary, i promise. also with low temp dabs & carb capping you get a lot more reclaim so you can clean it out every gram or 2 and use it to season new nails or keep it to dab when you're completely out. :]
     
  17. as for my first dab, it was this with this old friend of mine i met when i was like 16 playing runescape lol. i drove out to his city to chill and he was kinda new to the dabbing scene but he dabbed a lot, and i didnt know anything about it. he set me up with one and it was a much "clearer" high. i wasn't as lethargic, and i was forgetting what i was talking about over n over and kept on smiling like i got high for the first time again. it was a sativa for sure. took few more dabs throughout the time i was there. munchies were awesome. he gave me another dab for the ride home, on the drive i saw two girls kissing in the backseat of this escalade i think and made me so horny. i mean remember the first time a really, really hot girl put her hand on your lap for the very first time? that blood was rushing like crazy. i was so horny that i sped home, tried to watch porn but my internet was acting up so i just jerked it right there in my room and i came in 5 minutes and made a huge mess, then suddenly felt powerless and fell asleep. 
     
  18. that's where I'm at right now. Taking a short tbreak right now haha.
     
  19. how would one go about low temp dabbing without an enail? I'm interested as fuck.
     
  20. I went a week with pure dabbing, and now I'm taking a tbreak. The high that lasted 2 hours now only lasts like 30-45 minutes. Jesus, take the wheel.
