holding it doesnt give you more thc. In one hit, thc is absorbed within a second. Holding it doesnt make a difference in thc intake, you just feel more dizzy from the coughing, hence the myth.

Take smaller hits... Either that or you cant handle weed, but im sure if you take smaller hits, and realy try not to cough it'll be ok
normally, people get coughing fits cuz smoke is cought in their stomache...
just burp dude... works almost every time

you gotta hold for atleast 5 seconds. let the smoke swirl around a bit and let it out... dont hold too long tho, id say a 10 sec max, otherwise your just killin braincells
but no matter how long you hold it, i dout you ever get all of the thc, so atleast hold it for a few
my bongs made out of plastic, i sprayed it down with water and put it in the freezer. then i got crushed ice and freezing cold lemon water and poured it into it. it was sooooo smooth. and this is some harsh weed.
...let the argument begin!
THC may be in all the smoke, yes, but THC is absorbed more quickly then other particulates in the smoke. No, you don't get ALL of it, but even if you hold it in for ten seconds you wouldn't be getting all of it. Two or three seconds you've absorbed the vast majority, and anything after that I would consider as just harmful.Quote:

Don't think about it too much. Just take small hits that you can handle and enjoy it.
Breath through your nose.
Exhale ALL of the smoke through your nose.
But, you have to cough to get the mucus out of your lungs.
Spit it out.
Its all in your head, dont even let the thought of coughing enter your mind, BLOCK IT. Make the pain of the heat in your lungs be just that, HEAT. Think of it only as a burning not as an iching, or a "I need to cough" feeling. It works and since youll be high, it easier to tell your brain to do the shit you want.
