hi everyone i recently wanted to go to the healthly option of consuming the herb and i purchased a mighty vaporizer but im having trouble on making the switch from smoking to vaping i just love smoking joints so much.so how did you guys cope with the switch any input appreciated?.
I like vaping more. It tastes better and it's a cleaner high so it was an easy choice for me. I still smoke joints with friends occasionally but it's not that pleasant anymore tbh. If you switch try to quit smoking completely for 2 - 4 weeks to let your body transition and feel all the benefits before giving up.
Try to vape exclusively for 2-3 weeks. Then smoke a joint. It will taste like shit to smoke. Like an ashtray in your mouth.
damn how can you still smoke ?maybe it's just me but combustion tastes down right awful. I've been turning down joints for years now
Lol same here bro. But some situations I feel like a snob when I pass on it so I just puff it to be social and avoid an explanation.
not really. There's nothing snoobish about declining a joint or an offer to smoke. If you don't do it you don't do it. It's like someone pressuring you to drink when you don't. If that person is your friend they will respect that decision.
start the transition vaping at as high of a heat as possible to extract the most compounds from the plant. the more sedative compounds are extracted from the higher heat. use a water tool with your vaporizer to completely max out the heat setting and cool the draw. after you get used to the high heat vaping start to set the heat back down so you then can enjoy all the subtle flavors.
You should be able to feel the difference in your lungs after a week or two of strictly vaping. That is one of the main reasons I stick with vaping, not to mention the edibles you can make with vaped weed
I've been vaping with the cloud evo for a year now and I can't believe it took me this long to get a Vape.. Best way to enjoy MJ in my opinion. To me smoking a bowl blunt joint after vaping for so long is like licking an ashtray
I have just the dbv wish i got the lsv but whatever not made of money. My gf is hooked on joints and says "she only gets an awesome high at first then it is like hitting a roof." i'm. Inclined to agree but maybe the temp is off. I personally like it better but never put anything less than bomb shit in my vape. Larry og tastes amazing in it.

Personally I prefer the vape high! It's much cleaner and I don't get as many of the negative side effects I do with smoking it. Also, it's better for my lungs! My advice would be to make sure you get a very good vape, the best you can get. Don't bother with shitty pen vapes. Pack it really tight, grind it very fine, and take slow drags. I have a Pax and you're supposed to pack it tight but I don't know about other vapes. Also make sure to clean your vape often as res buildup can mess it up and make it less effective.
i like to smoke a bowl then vape a bowl. When i first got my vape i gave up smoking for awhile. But vaping just isnt the same. SO i still smoke about 30-50pct of the time, even though it tastes bad, and theres more resin. Makes you appreciate the vapor more.
I lurk here alot but rarely post (if ever, can't remember!). Just thought i'd give my opinion of vaping. I never really smoked the traditional way much, as there was no way I could do it at home while living with parents. Way too much smell. So I probably did it 10 times over the course of a couple years at a friends house. Basically every session ended up with me being totally couch locked to the point I felt like I weighed 1000 pounds. Then a couple of months ago I bought the S&B Crafty vaporizer, and located some good quality herb. The first time was good, like others have said, a clear head high. I had strange thoughts about why we don't build houses out of all the old weedkiller spray cans people chuck away, but other than that, clear headed and really euphoric. Couldn't stop smiling. Then after a few weeks, I started doing more in each session. I no longer get that euphoric happy feeling, but I do get in a total mess sometimes. Like really, really high. It's really hard to describe, but I find myself in this situation where I am really doubtful of anything I try and do, like "there is literally no way I could type on my keyboard now", but then I can actually do it fine. The most simple mind numbing TV programs suddenly seem extremely complicated to the point I just can't follow them at all, and start thinking far to deeply into things that are actually super simple. I also have mild to moderate visual changes, colors become very intense and I start loosing scale of things, for example I always vape sat at my PC desk. One night I vaped so much I was convinced the table was a couple hundred meters wide and my monitor was about 500 inches across, then the table kind of 'dissapeared' from my vision and all I could see was my monitor, so I logically assumed it must be on the floor, even though I was leaning on my desk.. yeah I was a total mess. Then just last week I vaped half a bowl of weed and the other half kief, about 15 minutes later I was tired so went to bed before the high really kicked in. Next thing I know it felt like I lost all sensation in one side of my body, so I was convinced I was having a stroke. I actually had to get up and look in a mirror to check my face to convince myself I wasn't really having a stroke, then I realised I couldn't tell if I was breathing either so I spent the next 2 hours manually forcing every breath to make sure I didn't suffocate and die. I was probably breathing just fine in reality, but like I said, I was totally messed up. Long story short I can and do still get really really screwed up from vaping. I enjoy it still, because so long as I don't over do it, it's an enjoyable high. I wouldn't call it a 'coherent' high, because my mind wonders off down weird and totally illogical/impossible avenues and I think i'd struggle to do 2+ 2 = 4. I spent half an hour last weekend playing Cities Skylines, except I was just flying round the city because my monitor suddenly became fully 3D like real life, it really looked like I was flying hundreds of meters off the ground. It was pretty epic. Sorry for such a long post!
Its all about intake. vapeing, edibles and combustion are all just different methods of the intake. Mixing and matching methods is fine as long as you are happy. Just do what you want.
