No it doesn't. Don't listen to these idiots. No offense, idiots.

I think the actual chemical processes involved when inhaling marijuana are fairly efficient, meaning they work rather quickly.

Holding in your hit may work to a certain extent, however not likely to any noticeable degree.

 

^ cktony is correct

 

No it doesn't. cannabinoids are released into the lungs almost instantaneously, holding in smoke for any longer than 3 seconds is harming your lungs for no reason.

 

Of course it does. It gives your lungs more time to absorb the THC.
After a certain point they can't absorb any more of course, but holding for 2 seconds vs. 10 (ok maybe not 10 but you get it)or so seconds DEFINITELY makes a difference.

Theres no ifs ans or buts about it.
Its not really a hugely noticable difference but there IS a difference.

I can't believe you guys don't notice the difference.

If i have like ONE snap to my name, i hold that one hit forever ans im definitely higher than I would have been if i had only held it for a second or two..

 

It gets ya on the goony aye cuz

 

That's called slight oxygen deprivation - gives you a small head rush, thinking you're getting higher. By the time it fades, you're higher than during the onset, thus perpetuating this myth.

 

....come again?

 

Everyone I know holds theirs roughly the same amount of time which is 3-5 secs

 

No no no, thats if you hold that shit for like 20 seconds.
Thats different. Thats definitely not what i meant, you get that feeling IMMEDIATELY after you hit it, you don't feel the actual HIGH immediately after you take a hit, once the high actually takes effect, there IS a difference in strength...

 

I do like 5 usually, but thats for like a rotation or somethin, when i only have a tiny bit I hold it for like 7 or 8ish..

What part of orange county and I get what your saying cause if I'm down to the last of my weed n I have just a lil bowl I'll hold it in and I think it works but I only hold it in when its a small bowl but even then it's not too long .......

But for a regular hit i hold 2-4 seconds

 

How do you measure the strength of the high?

I think it has to do with the extra tar buildup in your lungs, decreasing your oxygen intake, making you feel higher. So in a sense, yes you're higher, at the cost of slightly healthier lungs.

If I smoke a cigarette while I'm high, I feel higher. Similar idea - oxygen deprivation, but enhanced.

 

Garbage Grovejk it's really not that bad...
Where are you at?

Yeah the difference is pretty minimal for just regular tokin, but when you're down to nothin that shit makes all the difference in the world

 

Just the strength of the high ya know? I know when i'm kinda high and then I know when i'm like... HIGH.

I understand what you're saying about the whole oxygen thing but this whole THC absorbtion thing is a fact I promise you, Your lungs do absorb more of it past 3 seconds.
