    first off, please dont move this thread cuz this isn't a noob question.

    which burns faster in a bowl: ground up bud or a solid nug?

    i own a grinder, use it all the time its the shit.. my friends say ground up bud is more efficient to burn, and from what i've seen and searched on the city, you guys agree.

    but when i just burn a nug in my bowl it seems to last forever and when u think about it, if ur trying to start like a campfire, say, u throw the small loose pieces of wood on to get it burinin then you put the bigger, more dense logs on there. its seems logical to me that a dense piece of nug will burn slower than ground up nug but everybody says differently...tried to answer this question myself via experimentation :smoke: didnt really follow through haha...

    when you have a nug it isnt as dense as ground up because it has more extra space in it

    think about it like a crackers, if you have 5 crackers in a stack, and then crush them up, they will weigh the same but the cracker powder looks like it takes up less room.
    i mean literal crackers not white people.
    i am pretty baked i guess

    but wouldnt it burn faster? i mean particles further apart=more oxygen=faster burn?

    christmas tree bowls dont burn longer they burn fast...
    break you bud up for more room for more bud and spac.

    You should never, ever, put a full nugget into a bowl. ever. I mean, its entirely possible, but it isnt as good as your other options that are just as easy


    I personally like even hits (and kief buildup) so I tend to grind alot of my product up, it just seems to give the hit a higher quality feel to it.

    yea i try to get a good balance of the two, the more you grind it up the more surface area theres gonna be so its gonna burn fast but you'll get better hits. but no, puttin a nug into your bowl is deff a big NONO

    I usually will break larger nugs down into little tiny nuggets, because shakes tend to burn faster. And I'll put some of these little nugs in the bottom then sprinkle some shakes on top. Best way to pack a bowl IMO.

    I grind that shit as fine as I can. Ripped up nugs always go out and require a lot of lighting. I like to be able to maintain a slight cherry the entire sesh.
