The Complete Connoisseur's Guide to Enjoying Cannabis:

heres some little additions.

Look at the hairs of your nugget, the darker the hairs the lopnger the grow time.

When you burn your nugget look down at the ash, if its white its flushed well, if not it hasn't been flushed of nutrients properly.

If there is any stale smoke, don't be afraid to put your mouth on the female part of your bong and blow all that nasty crud out!

Keep a clean and fresh bong, use iso and salt to clean your pieces

Fresh water is a must in water pipes, warm water for "denser hits" and cold water for "fresher hits". Both get you just as high, matter of a persons preference on how they like their smoke.

When hitting a joint, don't drag it like a cig. Take a puff and inhale and hold it there for a little bit, blow it out letting it flow over your tongue, keep your nose open too so you can get the full taste of your nuggets.

If taking bong rips, blow out all the air in your lungs before you hit so that you can pull a monstrous rip.

Don't ever drink bong or bubbler water, and if your gonna ingest any THC make sure its been released in some substance that has fat or oil, otherwise your just wasting weed.

Brownies and firecrackers work, just give em some time, youll love the high!

 

Ha. I really don't see anybody hating here.

Unless you want to count this...

Not to make it into anything bigger than it was. It was just a comment that he made..that kind of rubbed me the wrong way. It wasn't directed at me, so i guess I should have just kept quiet. I just don't like to see people try to flaunt their supposed superiority. Its a habit that a few of the old heads on this board have, and it really shouldn't be like that.

that being said...IAL posts some of the dankest herb i've ever seen, and has started a great guide, that I would love to see completed.

 

this thread has great potential..good info already

i hope u finish it

 

Would love to see this expanded with pictures and get more in-depth, thank for for what's written so far.

 

+rep but uhm.. what is a connoisseur.. =D

 

For butane free smoking a product named "bee line" has been developed. Bee line is an organic burning string made from hemp and beeswax. It burns like a candle so it burns pretty slow. nice alternative to the sun, and soldering irons.

 

I've never seen anything like that before man. Have you used it yourself?

If so how is it?

 

I havn't personaly used it. I read an article about it in the newest high times. Seems like pretty legit stuff. The article say's it does a good job with keeping the complex flavor of dank that is lost by butane and sulfer. although the article does say it gives the smoke a hint of honey. So now looking at it i don't think that it's that great as a connoisseur tool, because the flavor is not pure. But it woud be good for the health concious pot smoker.

 

Cool guide, man. I like the washing hands deal. Gonna have to start doing that more. Thanks for the pointers.

agreed this is gonna be good.

and with some great tips and info for the younger ones.

 

my guide:
blaze.

that is all


but then again you can often find posts about people asking "WHAT DO I DO WHEN IM HIGH!?! OOOO " so this is pretty useful

 

Nice, It was a good read.

 

Hey I just had a question or two about some information in your post. Now the enemy of any fresh bud would be air obviously, but wouldn't a TightVac jar, which uses a vacuum seal without any real sort of gasket, be good enough for storage of bud?

Also in the event that your green does happen to dry out, does it affect the potency of the bud? I know this is a connoisseur thread so taste is important thus fresh green is necessary, but I always wondered. Thanks mang!

 

This is nonsense. Utter, complete nonsense. You can deceive yourself as much as you want, but that doesn't change the fact that it's completely untrue and not factual in the least.

This is more nonsense. It may have been originally written by whoever owns Bee-Line, but that doesn't make it any less false. When butane combusts, the only byproducts are water vapor and carbon dioxide. The only way you can harm yourself with butane is by inhaling it straight out of the lighter without igniting it. And the easiest way to avoid flint particles is to use a lighter that has piezoelectric ignition. There are a ton of these lighters cheaply available. Furthermore, Bee-Line is not chemical free by any means. You are burning the wick and vaporizing the wax and inhaling both. If you want to get your THC without any byproducts at all, use a vaporizer. Bee-Line is just using scare tactics to sell a product that is likely worse for your lungs than most methods of lighting your weed. A butane lighter does not produce ash or vaporized wax.

 

I'm pretty sure the lighter burns any "germs" on your bud...honestly i go through maybe 1/5 of what you do to smoke weed..I grab a game and break it up roll it up smoke it up...I enjoy every minute of it too.
