"Cannabis smoke is usually inhaled deep into the lungs and held there for an extended time, in order to maximize absorption of the active compounds. While cannabis users in North America often retain the smoke in their lungs for up to a minute or longer, preliminary laboratory data suggest that the retention of almost all of the cannabinoids in the inhaled smoke may occur after a considerably shorter interval (less than half a minute may be sufficient).399,487 By contrast. prolonged retention of inhaled smoke is not common among cannabis users in either India or Jamaica, although deep inhalation techniques are typically used.412,534 On the basis of the present data, then, it would appear that under optimal conditions, a smoker may absorb up to one-half of the THC available in the cannabis material. Under most conditions however, both social and experimental, considerably less of the THC actually enters the physiological system[n] The lack of standard administration techniques generally renders detailed or quantitative comparisons quite tenuous, both among experiments and between laboratory and social situations.

This is the website i got that from. Administration, Absorption, Distribution, and Physiological Fate
Personally i hold my hits about 5-10 seconds
5-10 is perfect.
Yall know how when you hit some DANK really hard, and you hold it....and the 'pressure' or the 'heat' start to rise....and you need to exhale....
Well if you are holding it longer than 15 seconds, it must not be a very solid hit to begin with.
if u want ur joints to not burn off alot of smoke while ur not hitting it.. u gotta roll it rite..
hm. ok. so i guess that pretty much, i just fucking suck at rolling and its really loose. i try to pack my weed down with a pencil, but it doesnt really work. lol
Thats weird, but like orangeman said. Joints are also my 2nd fav way of smoking and they get me pretty high.
ok I hold my hits for like 3 second and don't you have to take in some oxygen with the hit or it wont get into your lungs or something?
A study done by a group of doctors in Canada at Dalhousie University, concluded that more than 90% of the THC is absorbed into the lungs within the first seconds of inhalation. Another study confirms this, but they put their number at 95% absorption. The 5-15% of THC that isn't absorbed is due to THC loss in trace smoke, or smoke that never enters the lungs.
This doesn't sound right.
According to these reports 90-95% of the THC is absorbed within 3-5 seconds. Now if I were to vaporise a bud and hold the vapor in for 3-5 seconds and then exhale, I get a huge cloud of vapour ( THC, terpines, etc ) expelled from my lungs.
If I hold it for 50 seconds( with vapor you can do this), I get very little coming out when I exhale.
If all the THC is absorbed after 3-5 seconds, then what the hell am I exhaling?
Just because a doctor said it, it doesn't mean it's true.
DeepFried they're talking about pot smoke not pot vapor. Besides, you're wrong, look anywhere or ask anyone who knows what they're talking about and they'll tell you, holding your hits for more than 5-10 seconds is just pointless, as all the thc that will be absorbed has been already. If you really need "sources" then fine, ill find you plenty, but don't argue a point if you don't know what you're talking about, it's better to be thought an idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
and after all those well that out put downs you are still wrong:S2:Quote:
