I normally go pretty long, but i just held it in until i almost suffocated

and am pretty high for a single hit

I can't hold it in for that long. I suppose it depends on how big of a hit I took. I've some monsters that have no chance of breaking a few seconds.

I just take it easy and go with the flow. Some are held longer than others.

I'll hold it in for about 5-7 seconds, or until I start coughing/tearing.:D

My lung capacity is very low since I had blood clots in my lungs... they have not healed completely yet. So it's hard for me to hold in big hits. Normally I can only hold it in for about 5-7 seconds, I'd say.. I've only been able to do a ghost hit a few times after I got out of the hospital.

Well...I believe most (~95%)of the THC is absorbed in like 3-5 seconds or so..so holding it in is pointless.

you're right, but holding it in can be fun. it's just what people do...

i hold it in until i just start to feel uncomfortable, then i exhale into a plastic bag...then inhale from the bag and exhale into the air. i do this when i need to conserve my supply. works pretty well

haha, "recycling" as we call it. we do this almost every time we vaporize. when someone is out of weed and i only have a lil bit: "hey, you want me to bag one for ya?". sometimes you can get a couple people, besides yourself, stoned with .3 grams of some good dank. sucks being a broke college kid with a champagne taste for pot!

It really depends. if im by myself i dont really hold it in too long, but with like 3 or 4 friends i hold it in for like 10secs or so. depends on the hit also.

Holding it it for more then 5 seconds is just oxygen deprivation, it doesn't get you higher. Like it was posted 95% of the thc is absorbed within 3-5 seconds. I always hold it for 5 seconds, personally.

After 7 seconds you're just holdin' your breath, but maybe oxygen deprivation might help enhance the high somehow. It might be fun to smoke and use O2 at the same time.....hmmmm....I'll get back on this one.

It's a myth that holding a hit gets you higher. If it "does" theres two simple explanations:

1] Oxygen Depravation, which is not a good thing.
2] Simply, placebo.

As Rogue said, 95% of THC and active cannabinoids are absorbed by the lungs instantly. A natural breath is about 3 seconds, so this is all you have to hold it in for.

Also, holding hits in just coats your lungs in tar, and it's far more unhealthy for you than blowing the hit out naturally.

Getting high of pure Oxygen is awsome.

Went to a fest in summer and they where doing O2 ballons, this mixed in with the hige of da the green, was fucking out of this world.

But when me and lads get together(usually about 12 of us), we hold the smoke until the spliff gets back 2 us.

truthfully i dont really take a hit and immediately start counting to see how long i hold my hits in...but i would guess somewhere around 5 seconds

LOL!!...I believe you were experiencing NO2...Nitrous Oxide...I don't think its really good for your brain, I am pretty sure its considered an inhalent (never a good thing). And they really had that just out in the open at a festival? lol.

So ya...you though you were getting high on 'pure' oxygen?....Really?

oops forgot to tell what i do.
When im by myself i normally smoke it like a ciggerette which is like just a slightly than longer than a normal breath. when im with friends i can be anythin. towards the end of a spliff we play budwiser. which is where you take a toke hold it and say bud pass the doob everyone does the same then take a toke then say wise then pass. then take a toke and say er then pass then finally take a toke a mouthful of beer and say budwiser and let it out.

i go for as long as i can, and if im low on herb i take a huge hit, hold it in for as long as possible, then exhale in a bag, and breathe from that bag for a while.

I don't really consiously hold it in, but if i had to guess, i'd say 3 seconds..'

Yeah...not THAT bad...but not good either. I'm sure many illegal substances are 'safer'.

Anyway, I don't think many doctors have you huff an NO2 filled balloon until everything starts going 'Woo woo'.

lol jeez, relax, they strap a mask to your face and tell you to count back wards from ten... to all you who have had that happen to you, do you remember getting past 7?

11-26-2006, 06:07 PM
Alright whatever....I just still don't see the point in it....

Anyway...my original post was really to tell the other person that it was NO2 not oxygen...not really if its safe or not.

I don't care how safe it is...you look like a fuckin retard huffing balloons for a minute high LOL!

Yeah, nitros is the stuff used in spray cream. But it's a waste of cream.
