    so i for probably a couple months i was just hitting bong, it got the point where i needed to rip two bong bowls to my dome to get baked, and my bong's bowl is like .5 g big so my tolerance was really starting to cause problems financially, then, one day i decide to give my bong a break, i pack a bowl in my spoon, which packs about .2 or .3 , and i got high as hell,
    this leads me to believe that certain smoking methods can have individual tolerances to them and my bong tolerance was high while my pipe tolerance was low, or bongs are just wastefull idk, has anyone else experienced this? what do you think?

    basicaly you need some variety.
    and moderation
    keep multiple devices of smoking
    so you have a good variety to choose from.

    Variety is the spice of life and your body will get used to just about any task you repeatedly do, including getting high. Change it up, roll a J, hit a dry piece. This is the same with strains of weed as it is vital to switch them up and also change levels of THC absorbed to give your high a different feel.

    P.S i do not think there is any actual scientific evidence or basis for this "pipe tolerance" but rather some method of placebo were your just used to rippin the same ol 1 bowl and the same "high". just my 2 cents

    yeah, its probably just the same high that i was used too, bong highs are def different then spoon highs, a bong is like taking shots consecutively till you cant see, and a bowl or j is like sippin beer, ones gradual, ones hits you pretty quick

    The reason it took you more to get high from your bong is because of the water which takes away some of the potency because of the filtration. And a pipe has no filtration unless its a bubbler.
    Has nothing to do with the different tolerances.

    Misinformation

    It is what is being spread on apprentice tokers :smoke:

    Well then why would the water get nasty with shit but hits a lot smoother. If it doesn't actually filter then there is no use and makes no sense.
    And I'm no apprentice smoker. Been smoking for a little over 2 years.
    Explain.

    THC is very slightly water soluble, some of the cannaboids are depleted when it passes through the water, both psychoactive and non-psychoactive cannabinoids. Basically it is not anywhere close to being soluble enough to notice a difference at all.

    The bong does not get him less high because it has water in it :smoke:

    Toke on

    Game... Set... Match.


    But I feel ya OP. I had the same problem, but the other way around before I took my 5 day T-break. I wasn't getting baked off of my pipe anymore, so I made a home made bong and that shit got me RIPPED!

    I was like this when i smoked J's all the time. I would have to smoke a J by myself to get Kinda blazed. I then ripped out of my buddies bong and got ripped. I personally think people get used to one thing and gain a tolerance to it. JUst gotta switch it up every now and then. i try and smoke a different peice every time i sit to have a sesh

    I agree, it's more likely a mental tolerance, you're brain is used to getting high after ripping the bong, so when you start thinking about it your brain gets prepared to be high, and when you actually are high you don't really feel it as much, but if you were to smoke out of another piece, you're brain wouldn't make the same association.
