    Considering I've had bronchitis 3 times and I've never taken a single drag from a cigarette in my life I can assure you that, yes, you can get bronchitis from smoking just cannabis.

    Your question should be "How much of a non-smoker do you have to be?"

    Bronchitis is an inflammatory response to irritation. Irritation can come in a wide variety of flavors (excessive dust, bacteria, etc.) Smoke, be it from a cigarette or from weed, is always an irritant. Make no mistake, though the smoke from weed isn't as dangerous as the smoke in a cigarette, smoke is ALWAYS harsh to your lungs. Why do you think you cough when you smoke?

    If you smoke non-stop for a couple of weeks, and it's your first time doing as such, your lungs will be very angry with you. BAM bronchitis.

    HOWEVER, if you smoke a LOT...then your chances of developing bronchitis are a lot lower since your lungs have gotten use to the smoke.

    I imagine that yes it can be very harmful to your lungs and could give you bronchitis. But a lot of other things can give you it. Hell I'm pretty sure a hoarder who hoards junk can get it.
