Marijuana: The Tolerance Effect

I've been thinking of making this for awhile, but I was sure that I could find it on the internet first.. Surprisingly not, so here is what I aim to do. I want to take everyone's opinions on this, and make a graph like such (Days vs percentage of weed for same dose)

http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/...mp-Shroom-Tolerance-FAQ-and-Discussion-Thread

Our goal is to find out how to overcome the tolerance effect of Marijuana.

For instance if on Day 1 (Maybe I should say session 1 haha) Whatever you smoke is going to be considered %100 whether it was from 1 toke to like a gram! It doesn't matter, day 1 is going to be your starting mark at %100:
- How much would you need to smoke day two to get to the same high?
- And how many days would it take of abstinence to be able to smoke the same amount as day 1 for the same high?

So I use to be a very light smoker, I'd always get medicinal dank weed whenever i smoked because of my friends. And one toke would take me to space, it was almost too high. Then I bought a 30 sack and smoked all day, for two days straight, and started to notice multiple bowls not being able to create even the effect of one toke with no tolerance. I aim to find the best way to conserve your weed for the best highs, so after we round up everyone's experience, I will try to make a graph to post on here like the link I showed above. Thanks for your help

 

To me this seems impossible since too many things determine a high than just the dose and the weed itself. What about the amount of work you did and how many sleep you had before for instance. You can smoke 2 joints the first day, then the next day you made yourself tired and smoke one joint and get in a heavier haze than the first day. And so on...
Also, in an older thread toleration and highs were discussed and it seemed expactation can play a large role as well. Like the effect of what you smoke can feel less because you go chill and do the same thing because that feels best but since your mindset is focussed on the good old chillparty the impact can dissappoint. But when you smoke the same amount as usual and go do a total different thing your mind has not anticipated that and the high can feel much more intense again. Hmm feel like I'm rambling a bit, I swear by it though!

 

^I agree with this, but I think we can make it work. So let's say you smoked in the morning, and again at night. Maybe even a 3rd or 4th time during the day.. Doesn't matter. We're going to count this all as day 1. Days will be separated by sleep schedules (naps don't count)

If you've ever heard of reverse tolerance (it's what you're describing, you put the percentage below %100) So Asmodean, for this instance you would put as follows:
Day 1: 2 joints = %100
Day 2: %40 (because 1 joint would be %50 since it's half the weed, but it's %40 because you got even higher)
Day3: etc.

 

Switch up your resin profile.. Easy.. All you need to do is get different genetics.

Pick a different strain with different characteristics... There are so many strains of cannabis out there now it is truly astonishing.. and different strains of cannabis have different cannabinoid profiles... they are the psychoactive compounds found in the plants oils which have influence on the effect of THC. ..Different combinations and concentrations of those cannabinoids will do a pretty good job in significantly negating tolerance effects... provided you're not downgrading when it comes to whatever it is you're smoking, you have to at least be smoking a different variety that is of the same potency (or increasing to higher potency is effective also obviously).. also different terpenes in the plants oil as well which will help keep things fresh and effective for you

That is my main suggestion

Edit: Oh also, if you're having tolerance issue... why not switch it up and try some concentrates? Hash... you mentioned medical... grab some oil.. the stuff will wreck you big time... I make my own, never had it from a dispensary.. but one fat dab is all you need... two WILL end in couchlock and sleep.

 

you'd have to stick to a sativa.. indica... or a solid hybrid.. and not change.. the type of marijuana is definitely gonna be the wild card in such a study

 

how to overcome the tolerance effect?

it cannot be done

 

More Weed, Just more

 

that IS the tolerance effect....op said ''overcome'' the effect....


cant be done...the effect has a cause....cause and effect....if you dont change 1 than you cannot change t'other

 

yeah.. you can't just say you curing your "shitting your pants" problem by just changing your pants.. you'll still shit in them

 

Alright, well I'm reporting
Day 1: 100%
Day 2: 250%
Day 3: 400%
Day 4: -- Space
Day 5: 75%

This I did just in this past week, day 1 I hardly smoked and was very high.
Day 2 and Day 3, I had to keep smoking bowls about 2-3 hours to maintain a similar high. Day 4 I abstained from any weed. And Day 5 (Right now ;P) it took less weed than Day 1 to get the same high. A reverse tolerance effect. I think it may be because your mind is in the right state, and your body has gotten very familiar with the substance so the effect is more "well known"

Anyways, from my week of conclusions, I think you can conserve a high better by waiting a day or two before you next light up .. well duh.. but I think (at least for me) that the increase in effect from a day off is better than smoking daily. (Especially in terms of conserving your stash)

 

Seems to be about as thorough and one sided as any other MJ study.. good job.
