How do you smoke a joint properly?

Hey everyone, I didn't know where to post this so its here

Me and 2 friends are buying our first joints on Monday, we were wandering how exactly you smoke them? I mean, is it like baccy, or is there a different method?

Sorry for my ignorance on the subject.

 

Hold the joint inbetween your lips, so you dont get it wet. Inhale using your diathram and not your actual lungs, this will get the smoke down as deep as possable, when your lungs are 3/4s full, take the joint away and inhale air, this will make sure all the smoke go's into your lungs. You should hold the smoke in for 5 seconds then exhale. If you dont get stoned your not doing it right. If this is your first time smoking you should cougth if your doing it right.

 

Thanks a lot :cheers2:

Oh and I have smoked some of the legal stuff before, and from what I understand pot isn't as harsh on the lungs as baccy?

 

No its not, but because your inhaling it deeper and because pot tends to open your airways you probably will cougth, what part of the UK are you from?

 

Dorset.

 

Ah cool. Im from liverpool myself.

 

One final question? How long does the affect last? I mean, I gather it depends on your body, the strain and strength of the stuff, etc. but I mean in general.

 

For your first time it may be aslong as 4 hours or so, but its only the first hour or two that you will obviously be stoned (Red eye, slurred speech, giggles etc) For the other 2 hours you will be just nice and mellow.

 

^im a londoner myself. pretty much same advice as Roach except take a few atleast 20 seconds between hits and have water near by.

 

smoke all of it, and don't share it with anybody...

 

def have some sort of drink with you for your dry mouth

also have some good music to listen to, youll thank me later ^^

 

Thanks for all the advice guys. I'll take a drink and my MP3 player also arty:

 

let us know how it goes

youll never think the same again (good thing)

 

ahh i remember my first joint... i was so nervous about smoking it wrong just like you are.

don't worry about it, it's alot easier than you think. once you start you'll start to get a feel for it. just smoke it. but yea make sure you don't get the end wet, thats always gross

 

yeah, dont slobber. if you get it wet, everyone will blame you and thats kinda wierd when you experience the first time effects (ie: mild paranoia if your doing it right/wrong)

its like a cigarette, except you want to hold the smoke into your lungs. expect the first hit to make you cough for a good minute, to the amusment of others. its normal, and will only happen again when you exceed your personal limits.

 

go up in a tree and smoke up, its cool."

 

Amen brother, i roll and smoke joints in trees all the time, sometimes even have bongs up them, it can get quite tricky to get back down after a bong hit or two though, hehe

 

Yer i find it hard to get back down the trees, oh well it's worth it!

 

lmao ^
