how do you deal with the smell?

this one guy at this pizza place used to step out back with a blunt w/ a rubber glove on and just smoke it then toss the glove lol pretty genius if u ask me.

 

hahah thats awesome, i may have to try that at work.


OP i consider my self pretty experienced with the herb, and i have come to realize after all these years, that most of the time I am the only one who thinks i smell like herb lol.

 

yes

 

If you worry about the smell of cannabis in your sweat, there is a simple solution- fenugreek tea! Fenugreek is in the legume family that is used as a food source in the middle east. In fact, fenugreek is also supposed to be very good for your health.

If you put a spoonful of the seeds into water and nuke it for a couple minutes, you will get this yellowy-green tea that smells a lot like maple syrup (it has even been used as artificial maple flavor)! Add some honey or stevia (a a plant derived sweetener with 0 calories) and drink two cups a day. By the 3rd day you will notice that your sweat smells different! When you stop using it, the smell fades in a few days. You don't want to let the seeds stay in the water for more than 10 minutes, because there is a bitter flavor that can come out and also some goo forms around the seeds, so strain and serve without letting it steep for a long time. You can get fenugreek seed at most health food stores and larger markets. It is sold in tea bags and as a bulk tea in boxes. The bulk is way cheaper.

Geez Granny, if only we had the complete knowledge you have.

 

im confused here do you think your sweat smells like weed? Cuz im not an expert or anything but dont believe your sweat replicates the smell of anything you inhaled or ingested.

 

Unless you're an alcoholic, sweat usually just smells like sweat.

 

Most of this is paranoia. The smell sticks to your HANDS and BREATH directly after smoking, but a few minutes of walking outdoors, as long as you don't have either the herb itself (or what you were smoking it out of) on you, the smell dissipates faster than you might imagine.

It's the herb itself that smells, believe me. Put on a clean clothes, wash your hands, and chew some gum, and nobody's going to be able to smell it directly on you.

 

THC is excreted in your sweat. And so, it could be noticed by someone with a sensitive nose.

THC is excreted yes, but not the essence of the plant. Some things, like garlic do make your sweat stinky. But I have never noticed it on myself nor anyone else I smoke with.

 

I got a vaporizer and only one person has been able to smell it, even when using in their presence. Tobacco smells much worse to me (ex cigarette smoker).

I have also bought some essential oils that I can use in the vaporizor as well for aromatherapy. I got a stress reduction blend as stress triggers Crohn's disease.

 

Use the skunk method, bathe in tomato sauce of course. Works every time

 

My caregiver's sweat wreaks of bug, kind of... it has more of a buddish ammonia smell, but you can definitely smell it.
I recommend that you listen to Granny's advice.

 

I have heard a few people on this site say their sweat reeks like week. Why is it so hard to beilieve? Everybody's bodies react differently. Just because you don't smell doesn't mean his body is the same as yours.

Another easy method to be able to smoke almost anywhere without the smell is to water cure your weed if you grow yourself. It removes almost all the smell associated with pot. Give it a try, it will also improve the potency of your smoke. It does this by eliminating plant matter in the cure process. The same bag of weed once water cured will weigh less, the loss is from soaking it in water, breaks down the plant material. So less plant material with no loss in resin means more concentrated marijuana.

 

Question: Do you eat it? a lot? cause if you use majority baked goods then yes it is very likely you smell as in it's in your sweat. If you're talking about just the smoke? Then only the people who have been around it will recognize the smell. Otherwise usually people assume it's just part of your scent. Cologne or perfume, brushing your teeth, and showering helps

 

vaporize. No lingering smell. Only smell produced is similar to whatever the fresh bud smells like, which often does not have an odor which non-smokers would associate with cannabis.
