how can they fuck you up more than anything? its the same thing as smokin a joint... or a bowl... how can it fuck you up more, if your taking in the same ammount of thc... i dont get it, do some things make u get more thc outa your weed or what.
I think people just tend to get bigger hits and get the most out of their weed when they hit a bong. Thats basically why that is always said.
leapold
04-22-2007, 07:49 AM
yea i know but if your getting a bigger hit your just using up the weed in less hits so you rstill smoking the same ammount of weed. it doesnt matter what you use when u smoke, it matters how much weed. what u use doesnt make the weed any better... your taking in the same ammount of thc so idk why people say that..
your getting more THC if you take a bigger hit, which is what a bong hit is, a really big hit.

I think because of how fast your body is getting thc, it makes a difference how the high feels and how fast you feel it. I wondered about it once also but i took a hit off of a bong of dank shit and i was fucked up one hit. but i can smoke atleast 2 bowls of dank out of just a pipe. but i dunno just my opinion/thoughts! have a good one:jointsmile:

well just think in a joint what do you think the weed is doin while your holding your hit waiting for you to let it out and take a nother? nope your weed is burning thats thc you are losing, with a bong i take a whole bowl hit (no i dont have a tiny bowl just take big hits) but just imagine, the smoke that would normaly be coming off the end of your hoint is going in to your lungs no waste of smoke, thats why bongs get you higher on less weed
peace out

Yeah i think its because of how fast it hits you, its like saying downing 5 pints one after anuva will make you feel the same as taking a hour to drink them.
Waterfulls and buckets are probz the quickest way to get stoned in my opinion.

the reason people saythat is because they do, a joint/blint/bowl has no resistance its a straight pull like your breathing. a water bong/bubbler has the water which creates a small ammount of resistance so you have to draw harder and pulls the smoke deeper into you... some times i prefer a bowl there less to work on
Well, i for one dont think bongs get me [personally] any higher. I dont particually like bongs that much anyway - I prefer joints as they last longer and make it more pleasureable for me while i smoke. A bong is over too quickly for me - and doesnt get me anywhere near as high as a joint would - even if i packed the same amount that'd be in a joint into a bong.
If some people find smoking a bong get's them higher - then maybe it does? Maybe it's placebo, maybe it's because they're not wasting any smoke at all, maybe it's just they get a bigger hit in one go, or maybe they're all lying? I dont know.

I smoke bongs because they conserve herb, they are so smooth and they get the job done. Everyone has their own favourite ways, personally i find anything too harsh compared to a water pipe since i've been smoking those.

Bongs get me totally fucked.
I do like to smoke joints, though. The only negative is I usually use tobacco because it doesn't burn that well.

The bigger the hit, the more THC there is, and thus, getting you higher much faster.
It's like, if you babysit a bottle of beer, versus using a beer bong to down that beer in 10 seconds. The more at once, the faster it hits you.
leapold
04-22-2007, 07:40 PM
people keep saying when u smoke a water bong ur getting a bigger hit.. it doesnt matter how big the hit...
smoke 2 grams out of a bowl, it takes say 10 hits
smoke 2 grams out of a water bong, it takes say 5 hits?
your still smoking 2 grams... it doesnt matter how big the hits are if your smoking 2 grams over all... so i dont see how a waterbong can get u more high if your still smoking the same ammount...

04-22-2007, 08:10 PM
Probably the only difference I see is that in the bong, it uses water filtration so it's a smoother hit. In a joint or a blunt there's no filtration, therefore probably harsher. Correct me if I'm wrong.

04-22-2007, 08:19 PM
well... it depends on the speed you absorb the THC. The duration of the effects will be greater when you smoke slowly, but the peak of the high (the level of maximum highness you reach) will be greater if you smoke fast. Thats why people says bong hits make you more stoned.

dude one big massive hit is sooo fucking more powerful than 4 hits of the same ammount of smoke. because it hits you so much faster, it just.. well its great

When I smoke out of my bong It takes less weed to get me high, thats why bongs are better! 2 bowls in a bong get me ripped, but if I was to roll a joint out of 2 bowls worth it would proably not get me high!
I think it's more getting stoned faster than more.

Yeah, like alcohol- shots get you messed up faster than a few beers.
I know for a fact that I can get higher off a bong than a joint, even if the bong bowl had half the amount of weed in it than the joint. Dispute it until you're blue in the face, but bongs are one of the most potent ways of smoking out there. The only thing that can top it is vaporizers...
Hardcore Newbie
04-22-2007, 09:25 PM
I just think the bong gets you more stoned simply because not all of the weed in a joint gets "fully" used... like if you bong hit, sometimes when you light it up, the burnt weed gets a chance to be reused, where as the weed only has one chance to be used in a joint before you ash it. Anything that doesn't get fully used gets wasted.
leapold
04-22-2007, 11:56 PM
yea, but im compairing a bowl and a water bong/gravity bong... the weed isnt filtered in a grav bong so its the same as hitting a bowl, maybe a little less harsh, but still the same amount of weed is being absorbed by your body, so its all the same id have to say.
Gatekeeper777
04-22-2007, 11:58 PM
taking bong hits and i am freakin ripped.
Joints burn up your weed faster even when not hiting.
Bong usually goes out after a hit or two.
so you get mre THC in you rather then letting it burn away.
leapold
04-23-2007, 12:06 AM
.... you dont get it.. gatekeeper, you smoke 2 grams out of a bowl, you smoke 2.3 grams out of a joint and 2 grams out of a bong, so over all lets say your taking in 2 grams of weed with every item. so how can a bong fuck you up more than anything? it cant... i think people just tend to smoke more weed so they think there super fucked up... no, you just smoked alot of weed lol..

it isnt a hard concept. all it does is let you take bigger hits. bigger hits will hit you harder then light hits. thats it. it just lets you take big hits.

04-23-2007, 12:33 AM
how does a water bong let u take big hits? its the same thing as suckin on a bowl, but instead the water is falling out of the bottle and sucking on the bowl.. i mean if the weed was getting filtered through the water in a grav bong then yea id agree

Wow... leapold certainly isnt the sharpest tool in the shed, is he.
First off, bongs definitely get you higher. Anyone that has ever hit a decent glass bong can tell you that one. Second, they do not use more bud. I use less bud with my bong than anything else. And lastly, my theory on why it gets you so much higher is because the smoke is cooler, and cooler=denser, so its denser, cooler smoke, easier on the lungs allowing for bigger hits.

Because the chamber is much bigger than that on any pipe/joint/bong.

I don't think I've ever heard someone say "Oh my God, water bongs"
That just sounds ridiculous.
Dude, I swear you've asked this same question about bongs at least five times in five different threads.
Bongs have a large chamber, so depending on ur bong's size and airtightness, u can get much more smoke in ur lungs at once.

OK... i wish i had not to enter this technical details, but...
The THC starts to be metabolized immediatly after it enters the body. The metabolization of it makes you high, and also decomposes the THC in another substances.
So, lets suppose we have weed with 1g of THC. (I know its and absurd amount, its just for the example).
Lets suppose too, we smoke it in a joint, in 10 hits (each hit with .1g).
We take the 1st hit, and 0.1g of THC enters the body, and starts to be metabolized, which means its amount in the body start do decrease. Lets suppose, also, that 10% of the THC is metabolized in the time interval between 2 hits. (I have no idea about the real rate, its just an example)
So, when we take the 2nd hit, we will have only 0.09g from the 1st hit (as 10% of it already are gone), plus 0.1g from the 2nd hit, making a total of 0.19g after the 2nd hit.
In the interval between this 2nd hit and the 3rd hit, this amount will decrease 10%, due the metabolism. So, when we take the 3rd hit, there will be 0.171g from the 2 first hits, plus 0.1g from the 3rd hit, making a total of 0.271g after the 3rd hit.
Repeating this process, when we finish the 10th hit, which is the time when the amount of THC will be the maximum, there will be only 0.651g of THC in the body, as the remaining 0.349g were already metabolized during the time we smoked the joint.
Now, if we smoke this 1g of THC in just one big hit, all this 1g will be present into the body in the time you finish this big hit.
So, there is a real difference between the maximum levels of THC into the body when we smoke fast or slow. And thats why the big hits make you more stoned.
Also thats why the amount of THC needed to OD with weed must be smoked in a small amount of time (some minutes if i remember well). If you smoke slowly, there will be time to the THC be metabolized, and it will not reach the levels needed to OD.

lol runaway jim seems your the stupid one..

lol thats like saying because the the car has red paint, its a car with red paint.. lol that just made u sound like an idiot... and secondly, "denser smoke= bigger hits" yea bigger hits uses your weed up faster...
idk why your even talking about a bong? im talking about a gravity bong/waterfall bong. and what im asking is do certain pieces make you get more thc out of your weed? and how.. b/c if i could find that out then ill be alot higher. like "ilikesurfing" said its liek science but idk what the science is, why do u get more high? noone has answered that yet lol. and dont fucking say "with a bong you get bigger hits, thats why you get more high" no its not u retard... if you get bigger hits your just using your weed faster, whenever someone says "omg it fucked me up so bad" they are getting more thc out of there weed.
no, there is nothing you can smoke weed out of that will magically add to the percentage of the THC in your weed. Does that answer your question?

there u go, 40oz answered it...bong/bowl/joint its all the exact same...
but with a bong u smoke it faster so it just one big smack in the face lol.
but why do people say water bongs smoke so good? even though the smoke doesnt go through the water, does the water still cool the smoke a little?
j/w how certain people do certain things to get really stoooned

leopold, it's people like you that make the part of my brain that wants to kill stupid people drool like a fuckin rottweiler.
water bong = any smoking device that filters the smoke through water. This is what people are usually refering to when they talk about bongs. This is things like RooR, Molino, PHx, etc etc etc
waterfall = what you think we are talking about with waterbong. This is the thing that one makes by drilling a hole in the bottom of a bottle and putting a bowl in the cap.
also, one of the strangest things I've smoked out of was a gravity bong with a downstem, so that all the smoke filtered through the water and was thus cooled and filtered just like a normal bong, except it hit like a gravity bong.
finally, why does it matter? just smoke it how you think gets you highest, cause that's all that really matters in the end, right? The way that gives you the best experience is the best choice?

Anyone who has owned a bong can tell you that it does not use up weed faster, you just dont take as many hits as you would off, say, a joint. .2 for me is 4 good hits, and 2 fat ass milker cough up a lung hits. That will get me higher than a lets say, a .3g bowl. .4 through my bong gets me higher than a 1g joint. As i said before, anyone who has owned a decent bong can tell you that.
I'd like to say at this point, that a properlu rolled joint WILL NOT waste weed, at all. When not taking a hit the joint shouldnt be glowing and giving off alot of precious smoke - it should be just about still embering, so it hasnt gone out, but so there is no real smoke comming off it. Yes, it's possible.
Just thought i'd point out joints dont waste anything.

Bongs do get you fucked up fast. On a really good bong you can take one gigantic rip and its easier to take way larger amounts than with a joint, blunt, or pipe. So you take as big a hit as you can then you start coughing a shit load and you're already high. Still if im trying to get stoned i prefer blunts. Bongs may get you there fast but i enjoy the journey.

Take my word for it, its just a different experience man. Some people like it, some don't. Some people enjoy raisins, and they're obviously insane but whatever...
There are plenty of chilled out and mellow people who own bongs who I'm sure would love to smoke with you, unless you act like your acting on this thread all the time, in which case you'll probably have to buy your own...

I love bongs. I could rip a whole slide in one hit if I wanted. Me and my friends put hot water in a glass bong, and sometimes put cinamon drops in it. Its so much easier on the throat. It's more relaxed too; when I smoke a joint, I'm always trying to smoke fast so as to not waste. But with the bong you can just chill out and take a rip whenever you want. The bong is a ritual for me.

You've got 25 worthless posts.
You ask a question - and then dont understand the answer.
You insult people for the fun of it.
You insult people because they're right but you STILL cant grasp the idea.
You change the whole conversation from normal bongs to waterfalls.
You have some facination with calling everyone a retard.
Now - stop posting your crap, because no one wants to hear it. You asked a question, you got your answer. If you cant understand the answer, TUFF. It's been explained god knows how many times and you still dont get it.

Oh - and read the rules very well. If your going to stay on this site - stop with the pathetic insults little boy.

I might be wrong. But I was thinking, perhaps bongs get you higher because while you still use the same amount of weed, the smoke that collects in the chamber of the bong has a higher concentration of THC. See i'm thinking that if all the smoke you create is a mixture of all the chemical compounds in the plant matter, only a small percentage of which is THC.
so when the smoke goes through the water, some of the useless smoke just stays in the water, but because THC is not water soluble, the THC just rises into the chamber unaffected by the water, and builds up into a more potent smoke. anyone get what im saying?

That is my theroy, also the better the technology in the bong has a great deal to do with it. Such as all glass no rubber, metal, plastic; also how many types of filtration because also mixing alot of oxygen with your smoke is bad, where the stale hit comes from; This has to do with carb placement(A pull bowl is the cheapest and easiest form Which is why most high priced bongs have pull carb/rush); Also water is not the only thing used in bong technology, the Cyclone/Hericane bongs use water and very small oxygen vents in the neck to filter tar and it works iv seen the tar build up. Also ice is a form of tar filtration; difusers/ percolators also aid in mixing water with your smoke filtering more tar. One more thing a water fall bong is technicaly not a bong its a water pipe, like most gravity bongs. The definition for a bong is a smoking device in which the water helps to filter the smoke. A water pipe is a pipe in which water aids in its use, not its filtration.(theres a differance their not the samething) :pimp: This bong has all the cool features, check it:pimp: YouTube - weed The Mad Scientist (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJkFlqRSXL0)

Bongs (anything bowl based, really) don't stall between hits so long as you pack one-hit bowls. That makes the bulk of their efficiency. You can also get larger (tolerable) hits from the water filtering.
