So, I hold my hits until I feel as if the smoke has cycled so I get every bit of THC from each little particle.
I guess I'm wrong though, good thing I haven't been smoking for a long time.
I won't hold my hits anymore.
I think it works a little different for everyone. Try differnt things, do what works. I think that its important to get the smoke deep into my lungs. So I hot heavy smoke then 'chase' with air to make sure it goes deep into my lungs rather then chill in my throat and not be used. Try different patterns and see what works. I have heard that holding gets you higher faster, some poeple do that when their low on weed... Try it and see for yourself. The most important thing is to keep on puffing no matter how you do it. I mean common is there really a wrong way to enjoy marijuana? :o)
yeah, what's it matter if I breathe in normal while I take a hit?
Are you completely thick?Quote:

If you think that you gotta be havnig a laugh. Im not talking shit, i KNOW what im talking about thankyou.
People who go sky diving and shit arnt doing it all the time are they? But people smoking regulary ARE.
Damn, your the one talking shit.
yeah we call it chicago were i live to and also sometimes we play it where if you exhale before it gets back to you, your off that blunt or w.e your smoking but i rarley play that game i don't think its that much fun i like to talk about some random shit when i'm blazin not sit in silence.:smokin:Quote:

Okay I have researched it and what not and I agree you shouldn't hold your hits.
However, I recently played a game of red-eye (everyone has a name for that game I guess its just different everywhere, the holding till it passes back to you)
We had three people with a glass on glass 18 inch bong with a sidecar ass catcher.
I held my hit actually we all did until the bong got back to us. I was more stoned than I have ever been off one bowl.
You may say, no dude its a placebo or lack of oxygen.
No, many many minutes if not an hour later I was still stoned to shit.
And it was great.
Everytime I hold in fat hits longer I get way more high. I am not saying the studies are a lie,
but seriusly, I was high as a damn kite, usually it takes at least 3-4 of those to get where I was at.
i usually count to 5, get ALL the thc absorbed. i do it alone at home at night, instead of crying over the girl i love. if nothing else its something to do...

alot different so i thought you messed up.
Meet Timmy. Timmy is 25, 175lbs and in decent shape. Due to his love for <insert sport>, he does alot of cardio. Timmy holds his hits for 10 seconds apiece. He exhales and that is the end.
Meet Jonny. Jonny is 55, 5'4", 350lbs and in terrible shape. Due to his love for cheetos, he has bitch tits and he hasn't seen his dick. He believes that holding his hits for 3 seconds is plenty. (and it is). But if he holds his breath for too long, he gets a little lightheaded and knocks over his cheeto bag.
Moral of the story, if you in such terrible shape that you can't hold your breath for more than 30 seconds, you should probably worry about that spare tire around your waist than your 'brain cells'.
LIP, can you not hold your breath for 30 seconds?
In the old days I heard that it takes 14 seconds to absorb the usable part of a hit......
Dive:stoned:

People who are holding hits and think they're getting higher are just getting lightheaded from oxygen depravation, and/or placebo effect.
That's all i was saying, if you hold your breath, your going to kill an amount of your braincells.... That's probably whats making those bastards think that cannabis is doing it!¬
Hmmm I do ussually hold my hits in a bit...although now I'm reconsidering my tokin methods! So I will stop holdin my hits in!! I need all the brain cells I can get! lol and a healthy set of lungs is allways a good idea lol
Hahah, we call it Montana. Random lol.Quote:

Good job i turned it over to sunday last night otherwise i wouldnt have realised and i would have driven 3 hours to work for nothing.
I did that once, but it was for high school. it was saturday and I thought it was a week day, I got up, got my shit together, and walked to school, and when I got there everything was locked up and there wasn't anyone else around, thats when I realized "fuck its the weekend!" so back home i went to get my ass back to bed!Quote:

Have a good day at work mate. I work 7 days a week all though the summer boating season. I know what it's like to bother going in on a sunday when all you wanna do is sleepQuote:

well last night i smoked about as much as normal, holding it in for 3 seconds max., and i was just as high as usual, so i think holding it in really does nothing.
*sighs* I guess its one hell of a placebo effect.
But something to note, we did this outta a fat bong (glass on glass almost 2 feet tall, diffuser downstem sidecar double bubbler ass cather). When you take hits from anything besides a bong you get CAN get big hits but it doesn't exceed/fill up your lung capacity like a bong does. Just think about a bong, its a huge ass tube of smoke. No other method of smoking allows for the rush of that quantity of smoke that quickly [(hence the essence of a bong I know ; ) ]
Maybe since yellowy milked bong loads have so much more smoke and so much more thc than you would with other methods of smoking (pipes, joints, blunts, chillums whatever) , that in fact holding them longer allows more smoke/thc to enter your lungs gets you higher and allows more thc abosrbtion?
A hypthosesis maybe. Wrong, most likely. I don't know. Just a thought.
Seriusly though, we have tested this, and like the guy above me there wasn't much of a difference with other methods, slightly, but nowhere NEAR a properly milked bong load that you have to fight to hold. We would get temporarily more high (lack of oxy I bet) but it didn't linger.
Outta the nice ass bong. O yeah.
We call that ''marathon''Quote:

i dont know if anyone has said this already, but from what ive read about this subject (and i've read alot. mostly on theese forums) the most useful and most reliable information that i've gathered is that holding the smoke in your lungs does no good becuase the thc gets absorbed instantly but not all gets absorbed. in order to get the rest of the thc in that hit into your system, you should exhale and then breathe back in before the smoke is completely out of your mouth. that will re-mix the thc around in the smoke, giving another, (but less potent im sure) hit to you.
i do that usually 2-3 times and i realy do notice it helps conserve. i rarely smoke more than one bowl when i do that method.
i read somewhere that the majority of the THC is absorbed instantly, so basically holding hits is more of a personal preference than a requirement. i dont really hold my hits. just inhale exhale. and i get blazed
i always thought themore u cough the more u get off.
A comment backed with no science, or logic at all. :wtf:Quote:

yea never hold your hit just inhale as much as possible (even if it burns) then exhale 4 second later i get just as high when i don't hold hits in
Does he work in the field of medicine or science? If not, then I doubt he's going to make me look stupid. I've read many of his posts, and I'm not too impressed.Quote:
