Marijuana, do you partake?

[rnoldh]

Funny, I missed this poll previously.

Yes, I have smoked the evil weed.

But it was so long ago ( probably college years ), that I don,t remember the last time.

I,m older than most here

I,m also in a 12 Step program and don,t drink, but I had given up weed many years prior to giving up drinking.

I probably smoked around the time Billy C. tried weed and unlike him I do remember inhaling

As much as I used to smoke (and always with a bong, never joints or a pipe), I can't believe that I've never tried a vaporiser. I've been really curious but have just never known anyone who had one.

I never tried a vape until after 3-4 years of smoking. At first it didn't seem to work on me, but eventually I picked up a really cheap one because I was coughing too much with my bong. Basically on my vape, I load it up, and let it heat up and after optimal temperature I take the biggest, longest draw off it I possibly can. This is basically the only way it hits me. That first rip is going to be the only one that really matters, but you can still usually get another thinner rip or two off the same... 'bowl'.

And while occasionally I can roll a real gem of a joint or blunt, mostly I'm a terrible roller (they always work but sometimes don't look pretty). So I basically rotate randomly between several methods, because since each has a slightly different method of intake, the high feels a little different until you switch it up again. J's, b's, pipe, vape, bubbler, bong...

You should all understand vaporizers do not work equally. In fact, most cheap vaporizers destroy tons of THC, and I consider to be extremely inefficient, and would not suggest using. Only vaporizers that closely monitor temperature, and blow air at an even temperature will get decent results, that includes vaporizers like Stortz and Bickel's Volcano or Natural Good's Super Vapezilla. To do that, you will have to pay for the technology, so if you paid less than $100 or $200, I would say you almost definitely got a POS. Though there are a couple of vapes in that range that do have decent results, the vast majority are awful, and a rip off.

I say all that as a person who has smoked at least 50 different vaporizers in all shapes and sizes across all price ranges, and have owned the Volcano and Super Vapezilla, among others.

Never had the urge to give it a go, though.

Heard a bunch about it, wish I had gotten a try before it was crushed by the wheels of justice.

Re: vapes. Get a halfway decent one and it turns your <NATURAL, LEGAL, HERB BLENDS> in to an entirely different experience. By far the best way to ingest <NATURAL, LEGAL, HERB BLENDS.> Also you can use the burnt, leftover <NATURAL, LEGAL, HERB BLENDS> in cooking.

Yep, this is what's great about the volcano. You can burn some high quality *********** vaporizer and then hit it again in the bowl. I mean it doesn't hit great or anything, but it still works.

 

[fffffut]

vaporizers are worth it just based on the amount of weed you save and how high they get you
if you smoke more than a few times a week, you should probably consider one

I have partaken on occasion, but marijuana doesn't agree with my chemical make-up. I always get paranoid and don't like the feeling. My body just can't handle the stuff.

After having gotten busted once (very minor, just a ticket, but geez the embarrassment) I now have the displeasure of becoming paranoid about it in certain situations. Doing it in public environments, carrying, and combinations/variations of both. Also being in public with people who act like marsupials when they smoke and/or carry, as to act like an attention magnet.

I'm perfectly fine when I do it in an appropriate place with people I trust.

You're supposed to find the perfect balance countering those effects with liquor.





Or so I'm told

Twisted= sickest I've ever been. I don't mix the two.

As far as vaporizers go- I don't like them. Smoking a J is so much more enjoyable in my experience.

The only times in my life I've vomited from substances have been when I drank and smoked weed. I've put plenty of much stronger substances in my body and have never been as sick as I've gotten off weed and booze. Never used a vaporizer and the I've only used a bong once and it was a plastic bottle assembled by someone who was already lean so it was a *************. I did make a bong out of a pineapple once, but I didn't use it. Recently i've been having the urge to try and hotbox a closed motor cycle helmet, I think it would be quite fun.
