Does anybody really know the real answer to the question: does rolling your weed in a joint,blunt or bonging it waste your weed more so if u would just put in a bowl...cause i love smoking j's but my friends say its a waste so we always just put it in a pipe. somone give the real answer not what YOU prefer. Heres an example: If I have a gram of weed and place it in a bong and smoke it with a friend will i get the same amount of high if i would have put the gram of weed in a bowl and smoked it with a friend......or rolled it in a joint

i agree as well.
you know when your casually trying to relax and smoke a j and then you see all that smoke floating up into the air?
...well imagine if that was IN YOUR LUNGS.

I like smoking glass the best because i find it efficient.:thumbsup:

Joints let off smoke when burned which wastes weed. THC supposedly condensates in water, wasting weed using a bong. I'm not sure there is any argument that a pipe wastes weed (unless you let the weed burn while not smoking).

Personally, I think the similar but more important question is if you have a gram of weed and you use all those different smoking methods which one gets you the highest.

Whatever method you use blaze on:stoned:

joints, blunts, even vaporizers.. all waste weed

best to put it in a bowl and cap it between hits :stoned:

vapes waste weed?
i thought they were supremely efficient and very little THC would be lost.

Joints definately waste weed and uses lots of weed. Even a pipe if you toke it correctly you will waste little. :)

joints\blunts waste weed because they are continuesly burning. therefore for every bit of time you arent actually hitting the joint\blunt it is still burning weed.

in terms of the most efficient in my opinion a one hitter waste the least weed but it is also a one hitter making it very unappealing to most people (at least me due to the fact that when i smoke i usually like to smoke a lot and i am with friends).

Joints keep burning even if you aren't smoking them...


Yes, they do waste weed.

from my experiance it goes like this
vaporizer (half bowl pack or less)kb
bowl (1 1/2)kb
bong(2 but get a little more baked than usual)kb
blunt 1.5g kb
joint .9 kb. i prefer joints alot of the time though because they are much more chill when u dont want ne paraphernalia on you. those

i know a guy who puts fuckin loads of weed in his joints, he makes about 3 from an 1/8, i keep telling him that much is wasting LOADS, but he wont have it! maybe i should by him a pipe for christmas and make him give me the rest of his weed.

im all up for MASH-UP time, but i like value for money. especially here in the uk where the killer weed seems to be hiding

the thing no one ever seems to take into consideration when this question pops up is relighting a bowl....

if you cap it your wasting weed too... test for yourself... load up a bowl, and hit it, but do NOT let it go out... count how many hits you get out of it.... then, to your best ability, pack the same exact bowl in the same manner (if the first was just broken peices of bud, do the same for the second) and cap it after each hit, meaning you have ot relight it again every hit.... count how many hits you get... you WILL get less than the first... i can promise that... so there you go... even a bowl and capping it, wastes...


if you can hit a bong and not cough out the smoke after clearing it, you're not really gonna waste much more then a joint or bowl/cap... and vice versa...

so, choose your medium and just stick with it... the ammount wasted is minimal, but all methods will waste.. there is no completely 100% effecient method...

as for blunts.... well that one is a toss up for me... a blunt does take more weed... but that doesn't mean more waste.... the wrap is alot more thick and slower burning then a paper... i can and have on multiple occasions had a 2 gram blunt last a half hour... infact just a few days ago was the last time... if i'd of rolled all that bud into zigzags it would have been gone before that blunt was...

(btw this seems to cause arguments, the whole 30 min blunt thing... always someone claiming it's impossible... but if it's rolled right you can... the key is getting it to not keep a full burn when it's not being hit... you'll know you acheived this if the blunt will go out by itsself after a minute or so of not being blown on or hit...)

gravity bongs = most efficient you use less than half of a gram per hit PLUS all the smoke goes in your lungs.

yes, you will get less hits out of it.. but nothings getting wasted.. when you re-light it you will get a stronger hit with more smoke... capping does work, think about it.. you hit it, it stays lit and burns into the air while you sit on the next hit.. no different than a joint burning away.. but when you cap it, nothing burns away until you re-light it and get a more potent hit.. kinda like quality over quantity..:jointsmile:

as for vapes.. they dont burn all of your weed.. you can pull out the remaining ash and there will still be smokable bud in the chamber.. and indeed it gets you high.. bad for your lungs though, its like smoking resin..

just cuz it's burning doesn't mean it's smoking you know.... the very top layer of your bowl gets pretty much incinerated...

get a peice of wood, put a lighter to it and hold the flame there and watch it burn... it won't smoke, or if it does it's extremely minimal, then take away the lighter and watch how much smoke pours off... when the flame is still on the wood, the wood is burning, but very little to no smoke is coming off... it's not like the smoke is just hanging out on the wood waiting for the flame to go away so it can rise into the air...

there is a big diffrence between burning and smoldering...

vapes would be the most efficient, but its not a waste if your smoking and enjoying it. in all fairness no matter what you do its going to go up in smoke at some point.

I know it's been said already but this, sir, was a great post. I commend you for it.

In order from most to least efficient:
Eating (using an extraction method-Green Dragon, Coconut Oil)
Eating without an extraction method (Firecrackers)
Vaporizing
Gravity/Waterfall bongs
Regular bongs
Bubblers
Pipes/Bowls
Blunts
Joints

I dont find any way of smoking my weed a waste. Not smoking it would be a waste, otherwise who cares :rastasmoke:

I prefer Jays... But they do waste a bit of weed...

I just roll them so I can make some Dutch Tulips.
By the time I'm done smoking, I really don't care that much...

Plus, how much do you actually think you waste during the course of a jay?
Probably no more than 2-3 hits I would say...

If you're by yourself, I would go with a Jay.

For one joint to myself, maybe half a dime?
