bong water suck up THC?

    This may sound dumb, but I have only ever smoked out of j's and bowls. I was considering buying a bong but I generally smoke in small amounts so every bit of weed is precious, especially since I always smoke my friends up (and vice versa).

    Anyway, since the smoke goes through the bong water will the water trap some THC that you would normally get out of a bowl or pipe?

    Nah, the water doesn't absorb the THC, I'm pretty sure. Even if it does... it still gets me waaaaaaaaaaay higher than a bowl/pipe.

    THC isn't water soluble, so the water doesn't soak it up. However, some of it does get trapped in the water, but nowhere near enough to make a difference.

    I was wondering this same thing. The only downside to bongs imo is that they taste worse than a clean pipe when they are the slightest bit dirty. And they eat weed...

    Thank you for all your replies :)
    I guess Ill just have to try it and see what I prefer.
    Its good to know it doesn't necessarily eat all my THC :wave:

    thc isnt water soluble, so no. the water does however filter out other nasty stuff that shouldnt go into your lungs, so it is actually a healthier way to smoke

    Like I said, I've never smoked out of a bong. I think i'll have to try it. I have a bowl and when I use that, I just smile and think and chill out. Im curious to try a bong now that I know it wont steal all my THC lol

    They don't waste weed, they actually get you much higher.

    It does filter out THC, NORML did a study on it (trying to find it on their site), but it is such a small amount it barely affects the effects of bong hits. In technical terms you should get higher on bongs with no water, but that would be harsh.
