I’ve been smoking weed half my life, though in the past 5-6 years it definitely increased now that i work at home. I also used to sell it so I would always have a decent amount on me.
It started to feel more like a compulsion instead of just getting high. I would pack the bong and smoke it and be like, “why did i do that”. Plus my tolerance is way too high, Ill rip an infused joint and not feel much, making me question myself more.
I don’t drink much. Ill get a 6 pack every other month maybe and then when it’s gone i don’t get more for awhile. So i decided to test myself: I just wasn’t going to buy weed when I ran out. I was going to try and treat it like a 6 pack. It’s been 5 days no weed which is probably the longest break I’ve had in a decade.
Anyways if i can do it you can too, and i appreciate your support. Love you Hexes.
my other issue was coughing up black weed tar looking stuff in my phlegm, which apparently is normal for weed smokers because weed doesnt constrict your lungs like tobacco does so youre actually able to expel the tar to some degree.
If you’re just taking a t-break and not quitting for good, I strongly recommend getting yourself a vaporizer–your lungs will thank you for it. (Personally, I use a Volcano; yes they’re really expensive but they last for a really long time and they’re just better than basically anything else out there. Note that the bag is the key piece here; it ensures that every hit tastes the same, unlike other vapes where the first few hits taste good and then the rest taste like crap, just like regular smoking.)
I have an Arizer XQ2 which is way cheaper than any model of volcano and it’s fantastic. Any desktop vape with balloon bags is super easy on the lungs and that’s definitely the way to go, there’s not even a tickle unless you take a giant hit or really packed the hell out of the chamber.
I’ve never smoked and I’m glad I didn’t start out that way. Handheld dry herb vapes are very affordable, and they are so much more efficient than any combustion method that you’ll easily cut your consumption in half.
Volcano is cool, check out the B-Zero or other injection vapes like it on VGoodiez, they’re super powerful and around $300 for a set up
Interesting, hadn’t heard about that tech before. Seems like a great option for vaping on the go, without being stuck relying on pens. Thanks for the info!
Those ones are typically desktop setups but they hit as hard as a bong. Good portable options would be something like the sticky brick or terpcicle, which are torch-powered vapes that also kick ass
that’s an interesting device. I had to youtube a video cause i couldnt tell from the pictures how it works. But as a bong user thats pretty fuckin awesome.
It’s amazing, just got one for my partners mom. It’s very bong reminscent because you just hold the head up to the bowl like you would a lighter. On the higher temps it will absolutely put you on your ass like a bong
yea, like i don’t mind the plastic bag method but that B-Zero looks way better for more efficient smoking.
I’d love to get a volcano someday but this is definitely less hassle. I just use a dry ash catcher with a bowl that has a screen and I pretty much never have to deep clean my glass, just change the water
i use a screen but not an ash catcher but the tar still builds up eventually
It’s amazing, I had similar issues with coughing prior to getting off combustion. This scratches the same itch since it works with glass and can give some very substantial hits unlike a lot of vapes. If you can afford it and plan to continue using cannabis there really isn’t better purchase you could make imo
Vgoodiez is where I got mine, they are very helpful with any questions you may have
Which injector did you get if you don’t mind me asking? I’m looking at the glass one and the metal one and not sure if the price difference is worth it.
My vapebong broke a little while back and I’ve been looking to replace it, but the price has shot up. I bought mine when they were still being made by Dr. Colly, they were about half the price then. Many kudo’s to Jaxel though, I love the new models they’ve created but it’s hard to justify that price on something made out of ceramic again.
I have one as well, when I was speaking with the shop, they recommended glass for flavor of metal for durability.
I’ve dropped it a handful of times without issue, and just keep the thing in a jar of acetone like it’s a barbershop tool because the holes tend to gunk up.
Best purchase of my weed habit to be sure. Much less impact on my respiratory system compared with smoking but the ability to use it with regular glass and control the temp still gives you the regular fat hit experience.
Vgoodiez was who I got it from, fine folks
Thanks! Looks like the glass one will perfect for my habits, great idea keeping it dunked permanently.
I got my Mighty from Vgoodiez, very fine folks indeed.
Sure thing, I think you could also evaporate off the acetone after a while and use the reclaim for tinctures as it would already be decarbed. I’m considering it seeing as the glass will be relatively sticky if the acetone isn’t immediately cleaned off after removing it from the container.
As an aside, the heavier stand is 100% worth it. Also be careful of pulling the bowl out of the slide when removing the element from the injector. Everyone, including me, who was inexperienced with it did that at least once in their first use
i have the same brand as John_browns_beard. It is pretty good, i never got into the habit of using it though because the high wasnt that great, but thats because i was smoking bongs. Maybe after a long break vaping herb will be better,
My biggest stoner friend went to the dentist this week. They asked, “do you smoke?” and he said “no”, then the dentist pulled a big chunk of resin off his back teeth. Thought it was a funny anecdote
holy shit your friend is fuckin gross. Resin is so fuckin awful that it going unnoticed says so much if it was just in his mouth.
