    Hahaha if your reading this, that means you probably wanted to answer my question. My GF and I have been smoking together almost every day for 2 years on 2/28:D (thats a VERY long relationship for me). MY gf smokes more than I do, but on average we smoke about a gram a piece per day. Earlier this week I got an ounce of some Garlic Kush that was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!!! I mean this stuff got me like rolling off like 1 hit (from a pinchy too!!!) My buddy got it airmailed from Amsterdam.

    Generally we smoke out of percolating bongs (mines a double hers is a single), but on the move we usually chief chillums or bowls. My point is, we get a healthy dose of all types of pipes and dont only smoke blunts (although i'd like to!).

    Finally my question, we both have pretty chronic coughs that have been around as long as I can remember. My gf doesnt smoke cigs and I do on occasion, but havent bought my own pack since lent last year:D. The kush i picked up was mad resinous and i have been coughing up flem in the mornings lately. I would bet that the flem is from the tarry rez of the bud, but Im not sure. Ive gotten bronchitis from honey blunts before, but not from just bud (especially when Im using devises that are supposed to purify my smoke (bongs)). Anyone else suffer from a chronic cough, or more importantly, does anyone live an equivalent life style as me and the gf and not have a cough???

    Thanxxx

    You have a cold. Smoking can increase inflamation and cause bronchitis. Further smoking can cause pnemonia. Just stop smoking for a week or so and you will be fine.

    tl;dr just kidding, just take a little break 2 weeks and see how you're going.

    give smoking a break if its a cold.

    buuut.. i did live with a buddy last year who smokes every day and had done so for the past 4 years of his life, and EVERY morning he'd hack up a storm and cough up that crap.. and it wasn't a cold.. just from smoking so consistently and with the amounts he smoked (probably similar to you), with the occasional cigarettes also.. it didnt persist through the day that much, maybe a cough here n there, but it was mainly just the mornings.

    so its either a cold, or you need to take a break and invest in a vaporizer for the two of you.. unless you don't mind it..

    it's probably the cigs... then again I smoke 3 or 4 today and I rarely cough, except in the morning.

    Thanks to all that are responding! I wish I could say its a cold, but i have had a cough for a wicked long time!
    What suprises me is that, of all places, grasscity forumers are telling me to cut back smoking:smoke: DREAM ON! HAHAHAHA

    Second question: Why did Doug Benson not display the same characteristic cough? Pot Propaganda perhaps(You must realize their way to much biased science on both ends) or does the volcano cut out all tar effects (great selling point for the volcano and other vapes for that matter)?

    Third Question: Do certain types of weed cause worse chest congestion than others?

    No smoke is good for your lungs. A lot of tokers end up having smokers cough. Perhaps you should consider vaping or edibles so that you could give your lungs a rest?


    And garlic kush sounds stinky :p

    Try running everyday for five min if your going to be smoking like that.

    It helps .

    This. Or stop smoking, smoke isn't good for your lungs regardless if it's marijuana or tobacco. Vaping or edibles are an option if circumstance allows.

    Hey plus rep to you! Ive been waiting for someone to comment on the garlic kush! I absolutely cannot eat garlic, it makes me sick as a dog, but this weed tasted just like rezzy garlic toast when exhaled! magnificent since I rarely get to enjoy the flavor of garlic. (Plus I love Royksopp! The song Remind me from the geiko commercial is great!!)

    As for running, I have a broomball game tonight at my college!!! The KroniK Killaz is our team name Hahaha.

    Great suggestions peoples!

    I'm the same as you i'm trying to cut down to a gram a day I usually smoke between 1-2 grams a day and smoke 1/2 a pack of ciggarettes a day and yes I do cough up flem frequently. It's a side effect of the resiny weed and the cigs. if you cut out cigs it will subside a little.

    The air we breathe on average does more damage to us then some bong hits..

    Yeah man, Vape all the way.

    I personally like bongs, just because I love glass,
    but ill admit, vaping is the smoothest way to get stoned.
