    I have a question for you bong users out there, but first ill say about 3 months after I started using only bongs, I noticed I was coughing up black tar about once every few days. Gradually until the 5 month mark of smoking, I started coughing up larger amounts and more frequently, I was only about 0.5g a day on average, sometimes more.

    I have quit using bongs because of this for about 4-5 months now, and continued to flush the rest of the tar out of my lungs the following 1-2 months after quitting and haven't coughed any up since.

    Was just wondering if you guys that use bongs also cough up tar, or if you don't there is probably a SHIT load of tar in your lungs, judging on the amount that I use to cough up only smoking 0.5 a day for a 5 month period

    Coughing up black tar? i've never heard of it, I might be wrong and this is normal but I've never known anyone to cough up tar, you should get checked out

    yes I experienced this with smoking. heard somewhere that its good, your lungs are getting rid of all the garbage in them. I quit smoking a while ago though, exclusively vape.

    I haven't coughed by tar, and I used to smoked just over a gram a day. My old friend used to cough it up, but she also used to smoke a pack and a half a day.

    Same here, just vapes and concentrates for me.

    For those of you that don't cough it up, your lungs probably don't function as well as mine, I am probably lucky as I was able to expel it often. If only you guys could see inside.

    Nah, I've never coughed up anything but mucous/phlem. The bongs I've been using the past 2 years had percs so maybe that helped.

    I guess some people's lungs are able to expel, some's are not.

    Its pretty common among heavy smokers. I've had it for about a year, doctor said it was really nothing to worry about.

    after about my 3rd month of straight bong use give or take, about just under a gram a day, I switched to vaping completely because of the tar I was coughing up…

    5 months here. :( But I made the same decision as you! And it was a good one for sure.
