Which method of smoking weed will work best for you – is there one?

Do you ever wonder if you smoke weed right? Or do you prefer to smoke weed but have that nagging feeling that you are not getting it right? It’s not just you. Everyone can’t have the same “best” way of smoking cannabis. Your best high may not be the same as mine.

The goal of many recreational marijuana users is to get high in the best possible way, and when they are high they strive to achieve the highest. The more often you find yourself rolling or inhaling smoke from their dispensers, the more doubts you will have.

What some don’t understand is that the quality of a high doesn’t just depend on the smoking method. The THC content of the buds also plays a big role. You can practice smoking your weed the way other stoners have prescribed it and still you wouldn’t get a satisfying high from smoking a little less. To keep customers happy, various companies are running ads claiming that their new products are the next best delivery method for smoking cannabis.

Experiment to discover your best way to smoke weed

The best way to solve the powerful task of figuring out what is best for you is to experiment. There are many ways to smoke pot and you just need to try a few to see which method gives you the kick you want. A few dollars is enough to buy weed and hit a cannabis bar to try out the delivery equipment. If you can afford to buy the equipment in these consumption rooms instead of renting it, it would work too.

As I mentioned earlier, nothing about cannabis (or even the world in general) works the same for everyone. The same hit won’t deliver the same intensity for everyone who uses it.

Measurement of THC

The highest THC level measured for a concentrated marijuana or cannabis plant is roughly limited to 30%. Weed with this THC content is considered sky high. While tempting, not everyone can handle the high. You can find out how much THC you like to consume by experimenting. It opens the door to new experiences for you to try in creative ways that are guaranteed to be fun.

The THC content is measured in mg and percent. The percentage tells you how much THC is in the flowers, while the mg tells you how much THC is in extracts and concentrates. A milligram is a unit of measurement that is used to keep track of the weight of the product. There is a lot of math behind it, and I have no intention of boring you in the slightest.

Do we focus more on smoking good weed and the best ways to get the most out of every puff, right?

Smoking grass

Critics often claim that stoners miss many highs when they smoke a blunt. But remember, what works for Jack may not work for John. Before you smoke, there’s that exhilarating thrill and nostalgia that comes with grinding a premium flower and then rolling the joints or packing a bowl. Not to mention the fun that comes with smoking when among friends.

Here are some smoking methods and the expected height:

Joints

Depending on the THC content of the rolled buds in the joint, you can expect to get around 35% of the total THC from the flower. The lack of THC explains losses from pyrolytic destruction and sidestream smoke.

Pyrolysis is what happens when a bud is too hot from inflammation and the extreme temperatures destroy some of the cannabinoids available. Some THC is also lost if you stop drawing. You can also expect the expected high to decrease when you share your joint with another person.

Pack a bowl

When peeling is smoked, pyrolytic destruction also occurs. This is because you are holding an open torch to the wrapped buds throughout the session. You are getting around 40% THC. The more it takes to smoke everything, the less THC is absorbed into the body. Side streaming can also lead to a loss of THC.

Hash shells

This is similar to smoking a bowl. Hashish can more or less be compared to processed and pressed kief. The difference is that hash is made from the plant’s trichomes (not the buds). Trichomes have twice the amount of THC found in the plant and are twice as powerful as the regular buds that are made into pre-rolls. As expected, at least 50% of the THC is lost through pyrolysis and sidestream. Regardless, it can be considered a smoking concentrate.

Evaporator

Seasoned stoners consider vaporizers to be the most accurate form of smoking. Note that vaporizers are not the same as regular oil vapes. These use a more controlled source of heat to bring the weed to the right temperature, which would save THC and prevent it from losing too much. In contrast to the other smoking methods, vaporizers have less THC loss. This is between 25-30%.

All smoking methods inevitably result in a loss of available THC content, but with vaporizers, the loss only occurs at the end point, when the buds begin to dry and burn.

Bongs

These devices give you a cool and smooth smoke. Around 50% of the THC is still lost. Due to its heat source, the THC loss occurs at temperatures above 390 ° F. At this temperature the THC is released and damaged.

There is no standard way to get high. You can only experiment to get your preferred technique. Blunts, bowls, joints, hashish, and bongs are inexpensive methods to share with friends, while vaporizers are reliable devices that will help you maintain your THC. Another thing that you need to do is find a reputable dealer. That way, you can be sure that all of your products are of the highest quality.

If you decide to change your smoking methods because you feel like you are not high enough, you may not see a difference unless you validate the quality of your product.
