Smoking stems?

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by UP AT 3AM, Dec 12, 2011.

  1. Yay or nay? Do you get a high at all?
    I've searched around and got alot of mixed answers. So, if I smoke a couple of stems, will I get high?
     
  2. nah dont do it
     
  3. no, i dont think that would work

    if you have a collection of stems, look into making qwiso hash.
     
  4. Stems do have THC on the outside of the root however if you smoke the root or "Stem" it will cause it to burn and because its a stem its only going to be harsh smoke/black smoke.
     
  5. Nah, but sometimes I'll break off a little piece of stem to use as a screen.

  6. It'll get you high but only a little bit and yeah it's gonna be harsh.

  7. So, smoking a joint of finely chopped up stem= not a good idea?
     
  8. I would save stems if you can :smoke:
     
  9. Okay guys, I think i'm going to man up and do it. With all these mixed results, I'm just going to have to do it and see for myself. So, stay tuned to this thread in the following couple of hours and I will report back.
     
  10. This is a very debated issue. Couple things:

    1) If you do try it, roll it in a blunt (obviously grinded well) because the stems themselves taste horrible. I'd recommend a nice blueberry or peach blunt to mask the flavor

    2) The high depends on how much crystals are on the stems. Obviously, the better the bud that was on those stems, the better the stems.

    3) Only smoke them as a last resort when you have ran out of all your options (bud-kief-roaches-resin-stems, in that order).

    Hope that helped.

  11. Thanks for the reply!

    Unfortunaley, I live in Aus and the only place I can get blunt wraps is like an hour drive and it's midnight here :mad:

    This is my last resort though, I have nothing for another 2 days and I need a good sleep tonight. (Did not sleep yesterday, because I was sober and am not tired at all)
     

  12. Then by all means go for it my friend.
     
  13. Im in last resort mode too,
    So whats the verdict?
    yay or nay?

  15. if you dont have weed, dont smoke.  you sound like fucking crack heads
     
  16. I second this^
     
    But seeing as you made this thread you're stuck on getting high..even from stems. Put a coin in your grinder, then cut the stems up very small, put them in there and shake like a mad man. The kief will fall off the stems (yes stems do have THC/kief).
     
    But honestly it wouldnt even be worth your trouble. I did that with the huge stem from the main cola from my autoflower and got enough kief for like 4 bowl tops. Just dont smoke man..

  17. I think the only high you would get would be an exteemly bad headache.
     
  18. If you have enough and there frosty it will will get you high, but it taste like gross wood and is very harsh. Better have something flavorful to drink with you. Honestly depending on how much you have you probably better off saving them till you have enough to make some stem hash. Or tea or whatever. I took a huge grav of stems once and got me high enough but probably got the closest to throwing up from the hit I ever have. I tried it another time and didn't even get me hardly buzzed.

    In other words its not worth it. Smoking resin is though!
     
  19. I just wanna update this thread. I'm a longtime smoker, about 5 years now. I take breaks whenever my tolerance gets to high, which is about every6-8months, ill quit for 2-3months to lower my tolerance back to just needing a pipe toke a couple pipe tokes a day compared to bong every hour all day. And I've been smoked maybe 4 times since my last break, just pipe tokes but I really wanted to get high tonight and couldn't find, but there was a .5 probably of stems i had saved, ground it up fine, smoked it in a pipe and it got me pretty buzzed, almost just as good as a regular toke, so imo if your tolerance is low like I've gotten mine back down to, stems will get you high.

    BTW new to the forum but have read it for years when I searched questions. And tonight i tried smoking stems and read this first and was like fuck it i need a toke lets just try it, and felt obligated to share what i felt after trying :p

  20. I did it when I used to be short on weed constantly. I would save the stems and then smoke them together....it was like burning wood and breathing it in, it barely worked.
