Conserving Weed

[Guest]

Usually I try to conserve my stash by the bowls but I end up over smoking etc etc. However, I just noticed so many techniques I use to rashon out my bud. I just dumped whats left of a quarter out. A skimpy 8th of some nice little buds fell out. I put all that in a baggie and sealed it up, thats going to be weed for next weekend. All of the shake that came out I rolled into a thin joint which I'll smoke in a few minutes, and a thin bowl pack for tomorrow (gotta go shopping.. i hate shopping). Then I'll take break for the week, try and find a job (no one hires in this town!!) and be able to look forward to a nice sack on friday afternoon.


Anyone have some chill conserving techniques?

People tend to save the shake for last. I dont. About 3/4 of the bag is empty, I start to roll the shake up then get to look forward to that last bit of actual nugs. It works out well

My brother rashons bowls out, my buddy when hes tight on cash etc etc, he only smokes a half gram - gram a day.


What about you? (i know a lot of people are going to try and sound cool and say they dont conserve and smoke quarter ounce blunts every night: TO THOSE PEOPLE- I DONT CARE!!! Im talking about conserving!)
(and if you do then good, i used to then i realized how subjective weed is and how it tolerance and time, setting, mental condition is a huge roll in pot smoking.- i've found that pot can be real psychological. ie: you can choose to be high, or choose to feel sober for 1 of 2 reasons: 1) show off because you can smoke so much 2) you think smoking more will get you higher. -At a certain point.. i dont think you can get much higher sometimes everyime i've tried i just oversmoke and feel like i've been up for a long time but not high. i keep rambling i am baked. later._

I haven't really tried to conserve much in the past but I'm gonna start. I'm hoping to make an ounce last for a week.

[NightProwler]

just slow down on the smoking thats how.

[SativaTrip]

I know what you mean.....I kinda conserve....also I have an ash bag (not ass bag lol) that i dump all my ashes into, unless they are perfect grey, ( you can get some nice stones from shakin is up- as the biggest tiny peices left rise tot the top for a two toke bowl ...just have a couple) really..the shit is better than resin ,
Another thing i do to conserve...is buy new screens all the time....i'm all about it now.....why let all the resin that you smoke to get...stick to the other resin that is still clogging your screen and waste it? And yes it sure does matter, everytime i put in a new sceen i get great puffs and also I always clean my screen between every bowl so it doesn't start to build up.. Some nuggets will clog a screen on the first try....so what poeple keep smoking with a clogged screen for is beyond me.....fuck what a rant anyway, and always light that shit easy, that's all no torching lol

[Guest]

uh.. dude. You can definetly make an ounce last over a week. LOL

I tried to quit for a week made it to three days and was blazed. I've been able to conserve since I've taken a break.

Try making an 8th last a week.

[Maui Wowie]

I leave little pieces of weed around everywhere when I can,(grinder, stash box, tables) so I can enjoy it whenever i'm dry.

[BlackLabelXmas]

Right now an ounce hardly lasts me three days. I don't smoke big fatass hooters usually, but I smoke constantly so an Ounce a week is doin good.

[stangle12]

im really good at conserving. i have one of those vaccume sealers. i rashon out my oz's to 3g a week and they last FOREVER.

[stangle12]

how do you offord an oz a freakin week!

[emg]

he obviously makes a good amount of $$ :rolleyes:

[SativaTrip]

oh and i save every little leef and stem and the shake it through i silk screen when the "trash pile" gets big...the bowl of trichomes isalways well worth it...and they usually are around four or five kinds of buds that all the scraps came from (and no it's not even alot of scraps becasue it's from nuggets usually) but if the bud as good then the kief will be better lol You get great complex highs when you mix alot of great bud...damn that
s a good thread crazy combos of buds they're ggggreat!

[Jim E Fresh]

Don't smoke too much and after you sober up wait another hour to smoke again just to keep tolerance low. I smoke like 1/8 in four days.

And fuck dro cause u can smoke 1/2 of schwag for the price of a gram and a half of dro if you have connects.

[Jim E Fresh]

Oh yea and buy small bags cause when you have big ones you don't notice how much your smokin.

I did that with a QP and it was gone in like 3 weeks.

[stangle12]

you know what i alwasy do. whenever i buy a fresh oz, i take off all the little pot leaves and put em in a big pile. i put em in my cigarette roller, and its the perfect texture. it rollls a Joint that is INCREDIBLY similar looking to a cigarette, same density and everything and it burns perfectly. you guys should try it if you have one of those joint rollers.

[Guest]

Jim E Fresh, - that is so true.

Sativa- If I did what you do, I would loose to much. Though I like the idea of just finding a bowlpack when you really need it.

I really ought to get a grinder with a good screen in it. I'd like to get a collection of trichomes going for a nice bowl!! SHIT that'd be insane...

[ICBINR]

Holy fuck, and ounce a week, you got problems

You realize you dont need to smoke 10 joints a day to get high?

Sounds like your overdoing it

[Maui Wowie]

Smells like bullshit to me.

Unless he can provide how.

solid or skunky?
an ounce of solid in a week...ow

[Guest]

ounce in three days... anyone beat that? haha


Hot Knifez- I tried them once, cashes quick, takes practice to master and use it most effectively. I liked it, huge hits though a ton of smoke kept hitting my eye.

Ultimatley I hear a GOOD vaporizer conserves the most weed. I think bongs will get you real high but they cash quicker...

Im a fan of my glass chillum, sitting under the New England sky

Howdy Guest,

One way my gal and I conserve weed,is to save all the stems and seeds,in our stash box,then my gal picks off every last bit of weed on the stems and then we take everything that we dump into the stash box after rolling a doobie or busting up bud,and run them through a flour sifter,which knocks off even more weed and sifts the weed chunks from the stems and seeds. We usually come up with at least a doobie or even 2,after using the flour sifter.

Aot of times,folks are in a hurry to bust up some bud and roll a doobie and they leave alot more weed on the stems ,than they realize..so we ask our dealers to save their stems and seeds for us,and we git even more 'free' weed.

Yup..one man's junk..is another man's treasure..lol :D

Have a good one ...

[ScarlettCrush]

My friend mixes hers with tobacco to conserve, I mix mine with catnip.
Using a grinder helps if you are getting vaccum sealed weed, exposes more surface of the weed and fluffs it so it isn't so dense to smoke. (plus the screen and kifs collecting is a good perk)

[Reefer Rogue]

If i want to conserve, which i rarely do i just weigh out 0.2-0.3 and smoke 1 bowl a day. Usually i smoke a gram a day because after i've smoked i always want to smoke more. I like my highs to last all day.

[motahead]

I need to conserve to. Weed is precious to me (my precious)

I used to rip massive bongazos all the time and burn up like an 1/8 a day.

Needless to say that was not very economical.

Now I have a one hitter and I find that I basically can smoke an 1/8 a week doing that.

You can be high all day just get some really good bud and take a couple of sips off the one hitter every couple of hours or so..and you're golden.

Scarlett Crush...CATNIP? That's a new one. If you weren't joking that is.

[xNoa]

if you dont use tobacco with your joints then that really is one of the best ways unless youre really anti-tobacco, which is fair enough, but if you get some nice rolling tobacco you can barely even taste it(or maybe im just used to it)
and also i think a good way of smoking weed is only in the evenings, this is what i TRY to do now, when i get back from work or college, wait around a couple of hours doing shit to distract myself then settle down with a joint, cos the earlier i start the more im gonna cane up!

[ScarlettCrush]

not joking, catnip is the way and the light!

wow, this is sad, u dedicate all this time to smoke a joint of old weed, get a life... and a new sack

[marylanddude2005]

Hey pablo you're about as cool as your screen name (douche bag).

I'm with motohead up there, why waste so much weed? I also have a full-time job and stuff so I just wait until night to start smoking, then just touch the one-hitter a couple times before bed.

I have actually gotten an 1/8th to last six weeks that way. Just buy good weed and only get a little buzzed at night. Moderation seems to work for me a lot better than my old college days of trying to smoke as much as possible.

[hipEstoner]

just i smoke

LMAO! *whew* ... funny first statement there. but i agree, there's nothing wrong with conserving. soon, it becomes habit and you'll thank yourself for it

have some respect for torog, hes the godfather of this site.

[Up In Smoke 420]

This may sound gross but it works save your 'cashed' bowls because after they add up there really not cashed and get you a lil' high I did it once when I had nowhere to put the cashed bowls and I was dry and looking at it and it started saying 'smoke me smoke me' so I said 'okay' and then got high for a bit.

[ScarlettCrush]

true dat.

[Omni05]

good idea torog! Something i do (dunno if it has been mentioned) is i always save my metal screens when i change them, wad em up and smoke em in a pipe, they have lots of resin. I also never boil my pipes to clean, i always scrape off the resin for more to smoke.

If you don't feel like cleaning the stems as much, i heard you can make tea out of them (although i don't suspect it would be very strong if they are completley devoid of all weed)

lastly, always keep a butane lighter handy. Cash your bowl as you normally do with a normal lighter. But before you throw it out run a couple of hits with a butane (the little torch) lighters, even when a bowl is completley gone i can always get a few fairly potent hits by using butane.

[ScarlettCrush]

*praise butane*

plus you can get some hella cool butane lighters.
Mine is a little man with a hat one, when you click it to light, he takes his hat off and his head is on fire.

I love that guy.

Howdy pablo,

I consider marijuana,to be a gift and blessing,created by God,for healing and to unbind that which is bound..to simply throw out perfectly good marijuana,because one is too lazy to remove every bit from the stems and seeds,is no excuse to do so..and is a waste of the miraculous gift of marijuana,given to us,by a loving God.

Besides,I'm too poor to be throwing out perfectly good marijuana..maybe you can afford to..but not I.

Daggum..I bet ya feel the same way about left-overs too..yer probably one of them kind of folks that don't eat left-overs..I have a sister-in-law like that,talk about wasting food ! I'm grateful of everything that I have-because I've lost everything I had..several times..and I git it now-materialism does not lead to happiness.

Have a good one ...

[Torog]

have some respect for torog, hes the godfather of this site.Howdy king kong bong,

Thanx for yer kind words ! :)

I don't think that I deserve the title however,there are others here,who've been here and at MariHemp,longer than I,I have been a member at MariHemp,since '98..and even more recently,here. I don't seek fame .. I'm just here to tell my take on things and to show that Cannabinauts,come from all walks of life..even 'ignorant redneck hicks' from Texas..can be Cannabinauts !

Have a good one !

[ladyM]

the dugout is a nice way to conserve, me and the old man can make a 1/4 last most of a week. You must be rollin in the big bucks to buy that amount of smoke a week!
Toss some of that this direction.

And ration is spelled R A T I O N.

Howdy Omni,

Yup..just last night,my gal managed to put together a whole bowl full of pickins and resin,which got us both stoned,when most folks would have thought that they were out of anything to toke and wouldn't have even bothered.

I think that you'd be better off though,to be careful that yer not putting so much heat onto used screens,that the metal starts to melt and burn..I hear tell that it can lead to neurological damage,similar to Alzheimers.

Have a good one !

[jahjahjahjah]

i dont conserve

[fil lif]

I just try not to clean my coffee table too much, and then every now and then go through and scrape all the little bits i've dropped when mashed to one end of the table. Mixing with decent tobacco works for me too...

no, you are the godfather. :thumbsup:

[emg]

i dont conserve

maybe cuz your rich

[BizzleLuvin]

i limit myself to half a gram a day (im a serious light weight) and I add tobacco to the shake from the bottom of the bag. I make regular purchases on a regular basis to keep things organized. i buy just enough for one month plus an extra gram or two for the the weekends. i separate my purchase into a pile for myself and to a pile to sell.but sometimes i take an extra eigth from my 'to sell' pile and hide it somewhere (to find later and for emergencies) and raise my price a little.
