This might be kind of stupid but I donno.

:confused: When your smoking and you hold in a hit does it really help your high or does it not matter how long you hold it in the same amount of THC is gona be in your body

[Mojavpa]

Hold it in as long as possible.

[GTC21]

I breathe the smoke in deep then hold it in my lungs for a couple of seconds before I blow it out. If you blow the smoke out immediately or don't breathe it in deep you're just wasting it, there will still be lots of THC left in the smoke.

[Button Basher]

I wouldn't hold it in if I were you. Holding it in might get you higher but its usually a dirty, rank, uncomfortable high as the smoke settles neatly in your lungs after every toke.

I held it in for a year before my mates recommended I didn't, I find it's a much nicer lean effect now. :)

[Up In Smoke 420]

I believe it does nothing to hold it in longer. Just a simple Inhale and Exhale will do fine.

[Az.]

i hold it in....gives time for more thc to be absorbed by my little alveoli (i think its alveoli)

[mellow mood]

doesnt matter that much. youll get a lil higher but i just smoke normally. the secret is big motha fucka hits, not small hits that u keep for a long time.

peace

thanks i just wasnt rly sure i always hold my hits a lil bit about 10 sec but i always wonderd if it rly helped

[Beeblebrox.420]

The surface-to-volume ratio of the inside of the lungs is HUGE. Transfer of substances across the bloodstream is almost immediate. Holding it in more than a second or two really does nothing to increase your high, and only allows more tar to settle in your lungs.

Man im glad u guys made this thread cuz i always hold my hits in for a real long time and it makes my lungs hurt like a bitch. I always thought it got me higher.

thanks i was never sure

[sToNeDpEnGuIn420]

Lol yeah until i saw ppl on here talking about how bad it was i always use to try and hold it in, now i hold it in like 5 seconds, then exhale...

[ScarlettCrush]

same advice, I've experimented and read a lot on the subject. Holding it for a sec does help with absorbtion, but anything longer than a five count is worse for your lungs than any benifit you would gain. ( I hold for three at most, my lungs be smallish)

[Lily420]

sum times i do sumtimes i dont....dun care.....but i wouldent be suprised if holding it in wasent very good for you.

Yeah I remember seeing somewhere that 95% of the THC is taken in within the first five secs, so that's what I do.

[Sentinel]

i hold it in for maybe 2 secs. Unless i have like 1 hit then i just take in as much smoke as possible and hold it in as long as possible.But yah as mellow said the way to get stoned as possible is to take monster fuckin hits that make you cough

[NextGen]

Why can people get stoned from second hand hits? If there's no thc left why why?

[420ultimatesmokage]

the way i see it, the lung works by diffusion. gases move from high concentration to areas of low concentration. there must be some sort of a equalization of thc concentration between the blood stream and air. when it is closer to an equal concentration the rate of absorbtion will slow or stop so it is not possible to absorb all the thc but this is just an idea i came up with and can not say weather its true or not.

[Smokey McPot]

I hold my hits in for a few seconds. I hate holding my hits in really long. It makes me cough sometimes. If i roll a doob then i usually just smoke it like a cig.

[firsttimefarmer]

i dont inhale and i didnt have sexual relations with that woman

[Oli]

I only inhale, hold for a second and exhale. Unless we play killer, where you hold your tokes in until the joint gets back to you, that is.
