Me and my friend are getting our hands on some hashish, and it will be our first time smoking and getting high. We bought 2 grams, but we don't know how to smoke it correctly. We were thinking of making a DIY bong out of a water bottle, but we aren't professional bong makers, so we will probably fuck something up. Any good tips for smoking it? What about the "dosage"? As I said, this will be our first time smoking, so I just want the best and most chill experience without stressing so much.
Smashing 2g together can be a great chill first experience. Here’s a step‑by‑step you and your friend can follow: 1. Choose your method For beginners, go with a bowl or pipe. You can add a DIY bottle‑bong later when you’re more comfortable. Juggling hash production and a homemade rig at once can get messy and stressful. 2. Soften the hash If it’s hard, gently warm it up—not too hot—rub between your fingers until it becomes slightly pliable. 3. Load it smart “My buddy told me to put a little bit of chron underneath of it when bowl smoking it, so that it doesn’t bubble right through.” Make a small bed of ground flower in the bowl. Crumble a tiny piece of hash (~50–100 mg) on top to avoid it melting through directly. 4. Light with care Hash ignites quickly. Hold the flame just above it and inhale gently—don’t torch it: “The flame musn’t touch the hash.” Aim for controlled draws—not deep hits right away. 5. Start small and pace For your first hit, aim for one small toke, wait 5–10 minutes to see how it affects you. Hash is potent; slow and steady wins the night. 6. Feeling elevated? If you’re comfortable, take another small hit. Don’t rush—pace yourselves for steady enjoyment. Optional: DIY Bottle‑Bong If you’re set on trying a bottle bong: Use a sturdy bottle (RTX plastic doesn’t crack). Poke three holes near the bottom (the “carb” you cover/uncover). Use a small bowl attachment—don’t light hash directly in a bare spout. But honestly, a simple pipe or bowl will give you more control and fewer laughs at failed inventions TL;DR Use a small flower base in a bowl, crumble a tiny bit of hash on top Light gently, don’t torch it Take one small hit, wait to assess Bottle bongs are fine later—master the basics first Wishing you a relaxed, fun first session—feel free to ask more if you’d like ideas on flavors, strains, or chill music to vibe with.

If it's block hash it'll need decompressed first. Heat with lighter and pinch /rub off some and fluff it between fingers and thumb. I just fire it like smoking weed. Same way I've done it since 1974 when I spent 16 months in Germany smoking hash and driving Army trucks.
if it's soft pinch it into a triangle with thin tips, the tips will heat up and ignite first. if dry and stone like breaking it up into pieces of rice does well
I mean, you could probably dry out dandelions or some other known to be safe smokeable herb to put under the hash as filler, but thats kind of experimental
Hey there! It’s great that you’re being thoughtful about your first experience with hashish. Since it’s your first time, the most important thing is to start small — a piece the size of a grain of rice is enough to begin with. Hash can be quite potent, so take it slow and see how you feel before having more. If you’re not confident with a DIY bong, it might be better to avoid one altogether. Smoking from a simple pipe or rolling a joint with a mix of hash and some herb or tobacco will be easier and safer.
You should avoid paying for your supply until you get it but I suppose you can't be ripped off for much if you're only buying a couple of grams.
