Do filters catch THC?

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by Stoned342, Jan 30, 2011.

  1. hey,

    I've been using filters in my joints, mainly because I cant make cardboard ones, or when I do I get getting herb in my mouth.

    I heard somewhere that filters catch the THC so your losing some high? Is this true? :smoke:
     
  2. yes man!!!!!
     
  3. Yes it does. Thats why people who pull out tobacco from a store bought cigarette and fill it with weed usually take off the filter because even though a lot of tar is caught, so it a lot of THC.

    On the other hand, bongs and bubblers also pull out a good bit of THC too but people still smoke them, so its whatever you feel most comfortable with.
     
  4. you are loosing potency with the filter, i believe. broseph you need to get yourself a bong :bongin: and never use filters in your joints/blunts
     
  5. Ya of course they fucken take the thc i dont meanto sound like a dick i justy wanna see if it edits me some 1 said they adDED SOMETHIN TO EDIT THE VULGARITY BUT YA THEY TAKE THE THC LIKE THEY take tsr from tobscco but i ban see what ur thinking u still get ur nicitine but know pull of the filter of the cig and light it up alot mor potent in strengh right hence the same with mj
     
  6. Rofl my copter. Just a quick thing I googled...

    "While most users are familiar with varying potencies of marijuana, many are only vaguely aware of differences in the efficiency of various ways to smoke it. Clinical studies indicate that only 10 to 20% of the available THC is transferred from a joint cigarette to the body. A pipe is better, allowing for 45% of the available THC to be consumed. A bong is a very efficient delivery system for marijuana; in ideal conditions the only THC lost is in the exhaled smoke."
     
  7. Thanks for that. i was kinda wondering what that guy meant. I only smoke bongs, and was thinking, I know I don't lose any THC when smoking my bong. Did not know where he was coming from. Thanks for the correction. :)
     

  8. hammered?
     
  9. Why do you lose thc? You all always say "yes it does jsut like tar!"...but really why? Wouldn't it just pass through?
     

  10. Supposedly some thc is lost in the water... Idk if that's true though. Vape is the most efficient :D
    .07 grams in my iolite gets me baked
     

  11. Are u dumb mate?
     
  12. Alright cheers,

    I do have a bong btw, just wondering for when I make joints. :)
     
  13. I know, old topic. Does anyone have any proof a significant amount of thc is filtered out though?


    I mean sure, some is lost, whatever.


    Just rolled out then smoked two marb 100s filled with hand-broken Mary, and I'm feeling lit for the amount. Experienced, have B- grade supply.


    Have had to do this once or twice before with similar results. Anyone else?
     
  14. ^^^common sense!!!!^^^
     
  15. I don't think it's common sense to know not to use filters in joints or blunts. theres like no downside to them
     
  16. Well you do but it's not going to be too noticaby unless it's really really low quality bud where even an unfiltered joint barely gets you high. But if you use filters just cut them so they're just a few mms long. Long enough to hold on to it and not get bud in your mouth and keep the airflow good.
     
  17. I suck at rolling, and also hate weed flakes in my mouth. If I want to smoke a joint I'll unpack a cig and repack with ground flower and then pull out the filter throw away 95% of it and stretch out the last little bit and put it back in just to prevent shit from getting sucked through
     
  18. If bits of weed go through a paper filter you roll up then the joint is not tight at all. it's a shame most people don't know about the card trick on youtube you can roll a joint on your first time guaranteed using it
     
  19. not really a good bit but some


    @OP filters do flter out some THC, yes, they also filter out the nicotine it's not unique to just THC
