how to decrease the harshness when hitting a pipe

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by lonelystoner2, Sep 9, 2011.

  1. whenever i hit a pipe (spoon) its so harsh, it hurts pretty much each good decent hit i take, this is unlike when smoking papers or bubblers , anyway is there a way to decease the harshness.

    thanks
     
  2. dont inhale so hard. lightly but longer
     
  3. If your pipe has a carb, don't cover it, at least not initially.
     
  4. It goes away with experience. It used to burn my throat like a bitch when I started, but after a while of consistently toking I don't feel any burn anymore.
     
  5. I actually think smoking from a blunt/joint is nearly the same as smoking from a spoon if you take equivalent hits. Yeah when you hit a spoon you can let it fill with smoke and clear it, but you can also take just as big of hits from a joint. There really is not much of a difference between a spoon and a joint when you look at it from a view of capacity, because a person can probably inhale the same amount of smoke from a joint as they can from a spoon.

    Just don't take as big of hits, as you smoke more your lungs will get used to it. There is no need to take huge inhalations if you can't hold it, just work your way up and take hits you're comfortable with.
     
  6. put your tongue in front of the hole so it cools the smoke as it comesin
     
  7. Get a lb of weed and smoke it 24/7 until your fine with the harshness
     
  8. Just breath air with the sides of your mouth while inhaling from the pipe when it starts to burn. Works pretty well for me.
     
  9. have a water bottle handy and the harshness goes away
     
  10. Smaller hits.
     
  11. As you're inhaling, right before it starts burning take your mouth off and quickly inhale a little bit of air which will cool it down and you can keep inhaling.
     
  12. Don't take to big of a hit, thats the only thing that will stop the harshness.
     
  13. When I hit pipes, especially small pipes, I get a mouthful of smoke, hold it for a couple of seconds, then open my mouth kind of wide to inhale deeply. Opening my mouth wider helps me take in cool air with the hit. Holding the smoke for a second or two also gives the smoke a little time to cool before I inhale. I inhale that way when I get down to the end of a joint too, because the shorter the joint or blunt gets, the less time the smoke has to cool before it gets to my mouth.
     
  14. You could take smaller hits and also try to light only part of the bowl, known as cornering. Apart from that the only thing you can do is use a longer pipe, but you should just smoke through a bong unless you're on the move. Water filtered is a lot smoother than hitting it dry, you don't really need a diffuser and a shit load of percs to notice the difference, although these make it even smoother
     
  15. man up and take massive hits. mental game
     
  16. when i started smoking it was out of my glass pipe and it used to be very harsh until i started using it and smoking more now i can take huge ass hits without it hurting also inhale less but longer
