  1. Or is vapeing not as "authentic" as smoking?
    I like the ritual of rolling a joint, and putting a flame to it and blowing the smoke out. I feel it is more rewarding. Everyone says its a waste of weed, but I strongly disagree. If you mix it with baccy, it burns slower, and doesn't waste as much, while still getting you high as hell, and to my experiences lasts longer then a bowl. I put .5 in my bowls and .5 in my joints. The bowl lasts about 5-6tokes and its pretty much cashed, yet a joint usually lasts well over ten. An you can just do more with it, like make bottles into smoking utensils and shit. Plus the accomplishment feeling of rolling a joint just makes the high that much better.

    What do you all think?

  3. Honestly it's just a different sensation. When you vaporize you are getting mostly THC only, which has a certain effects-profile. With smoking, you are getting more CBD, CBN and other psychoactive chemicals that have their own effects-profile.

    Smoking tends to have more of a body high than vaping, and tends to lead to drowsiness. A vape high is more 'in your head' and energetic.

    You can turn up the heat on a vaporizer to get more of the other psychoactive components as they tend to vaporize at higher temperatures.

    Below is a list of the psychoactive components in cannabis sativa/indica, along with their effects and vaporization points. Mind you, these are in a vacuum, not standard temperature and pressure so the temps may be off a bit.

  4. Im the same way man, i just love my joints.

    Nothing beats rolling up a nice doobie and chilling on your couch.
     
  5. It's all good when you're getting high, but I do agree about loving the process of rolling and sparking a J or blunt. I smoke more blunts so I also enjoy removing the tobacco from the wrap and refilling it with buds. And IMO it's not that vaping is less authentic, it's just not classic like sparking a J is.
