Wondering if any1 smokes Poppers

[Kronic King]

Just wondering if anyone smokes poppers and likes them as much as i do, i think its the best way to smoke cause A. you dont use as much weed and B. well, they fuck you up:D

[Kronic King]

I smoke the ones, taking about 0.3 of a gram, tossing it in my bong, heating it up to a certain point, then pulling extremely hard til it shoots down, then clearing the chamber. Gets me pretty fucked and saves a lot of weed. With my experience though, they make me burn out extremely bad after about 2 hours.

[slipknotpsycho]

ok all i hear about is, heating it up just right... i mean wth you don't burn the bud in a popper? you just heat it like a vape? or wtf? i'm confused...

[Frivolous248]

Wtf is a popper...

[jaGerbom]

yeah explain this popper thing

[midlifecrisis]

Thats right, you barely need anything to make it, and assuming you don't have any of the materials, you could get them all for under $1. This bong f**ks people up hardcore cause of it's simple, but efficient design. Try it, post your pics, thoughts, ideas, and or improvements.

Materials:
1 - 710ml Pop Bottle (Recomended: 710ml)
1 - 4" Brass Tube w/threaded outside (Any metal tube/stem will do, just make sure it's about as wide as a cigarette)
1 - Electical Tape (Used to make seal the stem, you could use silicone too)
1 - Lighter (Used to make hole in bottle for stem)

Bong Construction: NOTE: The "Popper" Bong does not have a conventional carb, so don't make one. If you accidentally did or it's allready there, just tape it up. Also, the "Popper" Bong has no bowl, so don't use one just cause you have one lying around. Altering the design with a carb and bowl will just mess it up.

Step 1: Remove lid and label from pop bottle.
Step 2: Make a hole about 1/3 up the bottle. The hole should be a tiny bit smaller than your stem to make a good seal.
Step 3: There are a bunch of ways you can do this, here are two easy ways. I prefer to use the first one because of it's effectiveness and ease.
METHOD#1 - To seal the stem using electrical tape, wrap the tape around the stem once, make sure to wrap the tape on the part of the stem that will be resting on the hole. Duh.
METHOD#2 - Use Silicone to seal the stem, just put some silicone around the hole before putting the stem in.
Step 4: If you havent allready done so, force the stem in through the hole at a 45* angle so that the bottom of the stem will be beneath the water line when the bong is filled.
Step 5: Test that it's a perfect seal by covering up the top end of the stem and blowing into the bong, if no air leakes, then your good to go. NOTE: It doesnt NEED to be a perfect seal, it will only make it work much beter.

How it Works:
When you are inhaling and burning away at the weed it will start to fall through the stem and into the water. By this time the bottle should be nicley full of smoke. When you are ready to inhale the smoke, suck really hard, and if you packed it properly, the weed will be sucked through the stem and into the water, this acts as a carb and is very effective. You need to pack the popper before every hoot.

Packing the "Popper": If you've never done this before then it's going to sound really complicated and hard, but it's really easy. Packing the popper is the hardest part about learning to smoke out of them. After that it's smoothe sailing. Poppers need to be packed after every hit, but they can get you higher than any other bong I've smoked out of.

The Rollie Method: Use this way if you don't like tobacco, or wasting weed.
Get a rollie, rip it in half, roll one half of the rollie up in a little ball that will fit nicley into the stem. Put the bit of rollie into the stem then pack some ground up weed on top of it. The rollie is used so that you don't waste any weed by sucking it through the stem into the water. It might take some time to get used to how much rollie and weed to use, but I say this. Use 1/3 Rollie and 2/3 Weed. Rollie is not nesecarry but you'll waste bud if you don't use it. And your done, just make sure it's not in there too tight or it might not pop.

The Tobacco Method: Some like it, some dont.
Get a cigarette and rip off a bit of the end (Approx 3mm of the cigarette). Fold it/Roll it into a ball, whatever, just make sure it gets into the stem paper facing down into the stem. Then pack some ground up weed on top of it. Once again, the amount of tobacco/weed you use is all about personal preferance. I prefer 50/50 with the tobacco method. And your done, just make sure it's not in there too tight or it might not pop. Some people love this way, others hate it, it's all preferance.

Hitting the "Popper":
Make sure there is water in the popper. Put your mouth on the top of the bottle and put the flame on where you put the weed and suck. Just keep sucking until you see the weed start to fall through stem. When you see the weed start to fall through, suck and inhale really hard. If you packed it properly, the weed and tobacco/rollie will get sucked into the water in the bong and all the smoke will shoot into your lungs. It should make a sound that resembles a 'pop' too, hence the name. Make sure to take the whole chamber.

Tips to have you hitting poppers like a pro:
- As a rule of thumb, the flame should be kept burning the weed throughout the whole hoot. It just works that way.
- If you dont think the bong will "pop" cause it wasnt packed right, I recommend packing a new one...even if your half way through. Or you can try and make it pop, but you'll probably end up coughing lots.


All in all, I love these things. Ever since I was introduced to them by a co-worker it's all iv'e hit mainly. I can construct one of these and pack it and smoke it in under 5 mins for under $1.00. And when it comes time to make a new one cause the bottles getting to groose, just take out the stem and use it for a brand new one. These have gotten me more stoned than any other 3ft bong I have ever smoked out of. Hows that for efficienct.


Yeah I stole this from another site....hope it helps.

Eh, I don't see how it gets you higher. If anything you'd waste weed if it fell in before all the smoke was released from the bud.

I did have a home-made bong though that had a kinda big whole, and when I finished off a bowl I'd inhale real hard so the rest would get sucked down the stem.

Make it big enough to not fall through, but small enough to pop it. This has been my belief: you heat it to a certain point, and as it's on fire you pull hard to pop it through. The heat from the weed hitting the water creates a bunch of smoke and you simply clear to get your hits worth for less. Poppers are a great way for those teens that want to blaze in their rooms. Open the window, grab a stool and your bong, hit some poppers, blow it out the window. There will be hardly any smell (unless your weed is some danky shit :p ).

Isnt it called a shottie, or am i thinking of something else?

[johnnyAKABob]

Isnt it called a shottie, or am i thinking of something else?

yeah i thought it was a shottie as well

[69JIM69]

Where i live they call them snappers

[Kronic King]

Shotties is the UK version of a poppa, and midlifecrisis explained it well, basically take a piece of a cigarette, put it in your metal piece thats not too big but small enought for cigarette piece to fit in without falling through, get your weed and pack it into the piece, put it in your bong and brew it slowly untill you taste a slight bit of tobacco then pull like a mutha fucka until you clear the chamber... best way is to buy a popper bong for $25 CDN straight 18" plastic:) and yea for someone like me its good cause they dont smell too much and i can blaze in my room without my dad getting pissed at me for smoking in the house

[Fan o KmK]

isnt it the same thing as a snapper bowl? basically just packing a personal bowl for yourself, rip it then snap it through and clear?

[Frivolous248]

Shotties (here) refer to when you put a joint/blunt in your mouth backward, and blow smoke into your friends mouth.

[Willard_420]

Ah, we call those "supers". You can also do that by inhaling it into your LEFT nostrile which burns like a motherfucker but gets you retarded.

same here, well actually shottie is short for shotgun, which is what they were originally called around here....

why the left?

[Pius]

ok for your room, i'd suggest a gravity bong completely sealed and a bong hose with a bic pen inside it with the hose out a crack in your window
blow your hoots through that and as long as you knwo how to properly use a gravity bong, there is no smoke to stink up your room.

Actually, that'd be a shotgun, maybe shottie for short, but technically they are two differnt things.

[mulltie]

is a popers not that drug that coms in wee bottle and you snort it a couple of friends of mine di there joints in it some time but i dont think it did nothing just made them think there ass was gunna explode lol

[Hansel]

I thought poppers went out years ago :|

[SpitfireIRL]

AW, poppers are shit. They speed up your heartbeat and give ya a heat rush. That's all.

Oh, whoops. Thought you were talking about that shit in a lil' bottle you snort.

:\

[Delta9 UK]

LOL - you solvent abusers... ;)

[Kronic King]

i dont know why theres so much fucking confusion its not a fucking super when you put the ember of the joint in your mouth and blow out into someone else's mouth and its not the gay guy kind you snort before you get ass rammed how dumb can some ppl. be just read the posts of ppl who know what their talking about...sorry for sounding angry it just pisses me off when ppl keep posting shit when they havnt read the posts above.

[psychocat]

A bong without a screen is still a bong and the only reason I can think of for the use of the term "poppers" is the sound the bong makes as the pressure inside the bong becomes so low that the contents of the bowl are sucked into the bong itself.
However I hold by the info I gave as it is correct usage of the term poppers where I live and since I did read the posts above my first comment (which BTW is for the info of others) it would appear that it is also the same as in the US. ;)
Canada does have a rep for being a little odd :D

[ghettoBlunt]

really, around here we call a shotgun: when you take a hit (Only in mouth, not lungs) and blow it into a chicks mouth and she inhales...we usually only do it when we're drunk and i suppose you could do it to a home boy too if that floats your boat
