Bong: Better or Worse?

While I love hitting an nice iced bong, I also am not sure if it actually DOES "purify" the smoke to some extent.

Or is this simply untrue?

 

I've never heard of a bong degrading weed smoke in anyway.

 

if u put milk in a bong it will take the thc, but thats about it

 

Bongs are great. Water will not take thc out of the smoke. why is this thread here?

 

because in forums people come to ask questions that they arn't sure about?

 

Water takes more thc, by percentage, than the tar. So technically you would have to smoke more (in weight) than out of a bowl. The reason you get higher is because bong hits are much larger than bowl hits, because the smoke is cooler.

I think.

 

no i think she's asking if ice does the same job as water in filtering the thc smoke. i would say no... no smoke actually is forced through the ice... maybe if you have both ice and water, then you're all good!

 

i've never heard anything about ice purifying the smoke. it definantly makes for a better smoke though.

 

i think it just chills the smoke so it doesn't hurt the back of your throat haha..i also think it gets you higher...beats me though

 

I have a few pipes and a bong


Small $14 8in bong 2 yrs all plastic its decent

A small chamber brass pipe 8$ 12yrs old and is best never breaks cleans good taste great in it.

The wooden pipe pipe I have the screen sits off the floor of bowl or bunt wood will ruin taste of good bud

I also have a Ceramic pipe which is my fav taste but can break easy on hard floors and if did not break easy I make all main pipe ceramic

Bongs get you higher faster because you intake alot of smoke for less weed and can cap it off. Much like a gravity bong

I dont think water or ice or a mix of the two will weaken the pot.

 

I am a long time pro-bong-er and the water takes such small amounts of THC out it doesn't even matter. LIke the 10-15 crystals left on your fingers after breaking your ganj up. Thats what you lose per session. I cant get higher than with bongs with anything else mang, so i love them. And BTW, the water is strictly to cool your shit down and catch any large particles of things, when it comes to being a filter like cigarettes have, not even close

 

here's a little info:

joint/blunt/ect: you get only 20% of the total thc released from burning on average with peaks recorded at ~40% if fast passes, and big hits.

pipe: you get 40%+resin b/c it doesn't keep burning for long=less waste with peaks of ~65% if you snuff out the bowl immediatly after hit, and ~80% if you keep the lighter on it and you smoke it all in about 2-3 hits(performed by very heavy smokers with adapted lungs for the burning and heat).

bongs: you get 85% of the total thc released from burning + resin, the only thing you don't get is the little bit that escapes when you stop inhaling and 95% if you snuff it out right after each light or if you take it all into the smoke resiviore in one lighting you get 98%. + another bonus is it's only about 1/7 as hard on the lungs in terms of pullotants and 1/4 in terms of burning(assuming you filled it with water) as other methods (except vaporizors wich will not be covered here for lack of concrete research)

 

yea, it gives it a fresher taste.

 

we just got our first decent snowfall of the year, so tonight i think i'll mix some water with snow in my bong and have a good ol' time

 

i love bongs.

 

lol i bet you made those figures up right on the spot

 

good idea man i did that last friday it snowed like crazy and my cuzzin just got a new 2 foot bong just make miniture snow balls and put them in there

 

yeah, it took me a while to figure it out lol, but eventually it was sweet

 

i <3 bongsssssss

 

I bet he did.. but makes sense.
