Better to put alot of bong water in or a little

[FunkySkunky420]

I Have been using bongs for more then a couple of years now and i cant help but notice that there are some people that like alot of water in there bong and some that like the stem to just barley reach the water, i was just wandering which people like more and why?

[xtreme23]

more room for smoke the less water u have

[slipknotpsycho]

just a half inch or so above the stem is sufficent enough.... having more doesn't do anything other then take up more of the chamber....

I think Slip hit this one on the head, well atleast thats how I keep mine.

[the joint meister]

i always fill my bong up to about 1/2 past the stem


peace out Dm

[fasterspider]

I put my stem down to the bottom and then 2.5" of over it.

As devil's advocate; the smoke may cool more the more water it has to go through. I don't know if that's true. I kinda agree with the king. Whatever floats your boat.

[Reefer Rogue]

Just test it out

[skatin_foo15]

I usually go with atleast 2 inches depending on the bong of course. Cause the more water the smoke has to go through the better its being filtrated and so it makes a good clean hit. It makes sense in my mind but i doubt it really matters that much in the end....

[dean0000]

I have my bong water about 5cm above the end of the stem. It is clear that the more water the smoke travels through the more it will be filtered and cooled. I have as much water as I can without creating too much drag on the bong.

[WeedyBoyWonder]

I just fill it up, depending on where the hit hole is and down tube.
With my bong, about an inch under the hit hole is where it's at.

[FunkySkunky420]

yeah i always fill it up as much as i can thinking it will help because of filtration plus i have a diffuser so i though if the bubbles had more time in the water it would be better some how but i just wanted to ask some other people and see what they thought ya know?

I have a ceramic bong and I cant see inside it... I put in 1/4 of a cup of water into mine. I have figured out that that is the perfect amount of water to cover the stem and to not make water go up the bong and into my mouth when I toke dat bitch hard.

I dont see any reason you would have to put more water in than to cover the stem, it just makes it take more effort to pull

[teamfatmase]

i just put enough past the stem. if you want a cooler or smoother hit or whatnot. i throw some ice in there. definately but once you get stoned. does it really matter if its smooth or not. i mean really it doesnt matter in the first place but i do understand preferences. so really its all about what you like best in the end >_> am i right?

[Number 1 DJ]

i pack mine full of crushed ice to the rim then through the session it turns to just the right amount of slush ice water for me i like lots of water to though

[420MissHighTimes420]

i too put crushed ice in mine, and the water with it normally comes up an inch or maybe even mroe pasted the steam.
i think it depends on the bong though. mine is really tall so putting a lot in is good because i cant clear it in less than 2 hits.

I cant wait till my new bong comes!!!!!

[4twentE]

if you suck water or can't get a killer hit: too much water

if you don't hear water: too little water

it varies from pipe to pipe

[Fizz E. Pop]

I usually put just enough for the stem to go in and thats all....but thats just what I like.

[LiquidMagik]

Depends if I'm using ice or not. If not, I'll fill it up a little higher to cool the smoke a bit more. If I am using ice, I'll fill it to just above the highest notch in my diffusor. More water = cooler hits. However, water, in addition to cooling the smoke, removes some of the THC in the process. You normally won't notice a difference, because you're taking bigger hits, and everyone knows you get the highest when you take the biggest hit you can and still hold it in for 7 seconds. More than 7 seconds, you need to take bigger hits. Less than 7 seconds, smaller hits.

[Tots]

Personally I like to fill her up with a little extra water. This makes the bubbles bigger and they sound better. I also think that as long as the smoke is being filtered through the water, adding more water won't filter out more carcinogens since the chemicals are either water soluble or they aren't.
