Mango question!

Discussion in 'Beginner Cannabis Consumption & Tips' started by Renkluaf, Jan 31, 2010.

  1. heyo, I have read on here about the mangos before you smoke deal. I was just wondering if dried mangos worked too, instead of the actual fruit itself. Any info, thanks.

    Mycene in magos is what helps thc get processed more quickly and efficiently in your brain.

    weed has this stuff in it too. higher quality weed has more of it than average weed too, so it plays a role in getting you the best high.

    I assume that mycene is still preserved in dried mangos... Weed gets dried and cured and it still has the stuff, so i dont see why it would be much different for mangos.


    either way, they're a tasty and healthy snack.





    EDIT: for ultimate dankiosity, get a mango smoothie. cures munchies, cottonmouth, and gets you higher. gotta find a place that uses real fruit mangos though...
     
  3. As far as I've been told, the mango effect is SO small (if any) that it's not even worth the (small) effort of peeling and eating the mango. Again, this is just what I've been told by various friends/sources.

    Happy Toking!

    P.S. Stoopid Toker: A mango smoothie sounds AWESOME!!!! Damn, now I want one...
     
  4. I use mangos once in a while and i can say that it makes a big difference the first time i ate one i felt like there was no way i could be this high for how much i smoked
     
  5. I have eaten mangos before toking and noticed some small effects, and i have only done it a couple times....

    but in theory, it seems that eating mangos would make lower-mid grade weed seem liker higher grade weed but wouldnt help already dank weed out that much. That is... if what i read is true... that (1) mycene is in mangos and in weed (or at least a similar chemical that produces the same effect) and (2) higher-grade (dank, chronic,) weed has higher levels of that chemical than lower-mid grade weed does (sort of like thc would differ)...

    if that makes sense... lol, im baked outa my mind.
     
  6. thanks guys, the reason i asked is because a friend bought me a bag of dried mangos and i noticed a difference but nothing major.

  7. I've had those before, they taste godly.
     
  8. You should try it. Trust me, you'll be surprised how well it actually does work. It's weird cause you can clearly notice a difference in high. It's so different that if you had forgotten you ate a mango, you'd remember after smoking. Like it FEELS like you ate a mango lol. I remember i walked inside after blazing like an hour after eating a mango and I was like, "Does anyone else feel a little mangoed?" lol.
     
  9. What people often forget is that you got to eat the mango munchies half an hour to an hour before you smoke to get the full effect. I actually have been doing a lot of testing with this mango theory and I got to say it definitely works. I wouldn't say I was the highest I have ever been, but my high lasted sooooo much longer than it normally does. My roomate and I took two bong rips each and were sufficiently blazed for a good 3-4 Hours maybe a bit longer.
     
  10. beer works and is more fun.
     
  11. last night i ate a ripe mango, waited an hour, then smoked. usually i'll get a different type of high with the same weed depending on my mood and environment. i didn't notice anything really out of the ordinary with the mango. did i do something wrong? if you keep having mangoes before you smoke will the effect diminish?
     
  12. I have been told that it has to be a very ripe mango to get the best effect. I guess as they ripen more of that chemical forgot name it start with "m" like mycene or something like that gets released so that could be why it didnt work as well this time around.
     
  13. try beer, it works better....
     
  14. It doesn't work better. You just get drunk and high which is nice, but this method will just get you higher.
     
  15. the same chemical found in ripe mangos, is found in hops as well.
     
  16. I've tried eating mangos 30 minutes before smoking. Didn't do a thing for me
     
  17. Hmm, how about Jamba Juice? Mango a go go? it has mango in it
     
  18. Go for it! Tried that last week, it was awesome:smoking:
     
  19. This guy... REALLY wants you to drink beer... lol.
     
  20. ive tried both, and beer just works better. just tryin to help as it was ignored each time.
