Peace:hippy::stoned:
i dont think its bad for the bubbler, however it does kinda defeats the purpose though...
yeah, you might as well just use a pipe.
Right now my only piece is a bubbler though. I would use water but it's kinda of a hassle trying to dump the water out after use. because my parents are always in the living room and i have to go though the living room to get to the bathroom.Quote:

why are you doing it near your parents?

:stoned:
I know It's not really my parents. It's more of me being a lazy. lol. Cause after i'am done smoking its like hard for me to put all my shit away. And dumping the water out is just 'hard' for some reason.Quote:

Leave it in there....till it gets gross. Then just wait till your parents aren't home and pour it out. Or just put a hoodie on and put the bubbler in the hoodie pocket when u go to the bathroom to pour it out.
I don't know how you do that. I've gotten so spoiled I can't stand using pipes without water anymore. Well.....joint and blunts are okay.
Most likely not. If it was used continuously for a while then it might be an issue (hours).. Might.. Should be fine for what you described.Quote:

You should relax :jointsmile:
nobodys gonna call the cops if your just dumping shit out your window,
i dont think you can get arrested to dumping water out the window. your way to paranoid. if you pour it in a bottle hide the bottlethen dump it in the toilet the next dayQuote:

I say you should use it with no water all the time. Water bongs filter more THC out of the water then they do tar. Adding water is basically just throwing weed away... unless you think the taste effect from the filtration is worth the weed your losing. The net result is an increase in the amount of tar per hit (and a decrease in the amount of THC/cannabinoids per hit). And in my experience tar doesn't taste very good... I like the taste of pipe smoke much more then water bong smoke.Quote:

I personally like using long glass pipes. The longer the pipe, the cooler the smoke gets before it hits your throat and lungs (and the less harsh the smoke). A nice long bong without water is an excellent pipe if you ask me.
Here is the original study by NORML and MAPS on the results of water filtration.
MAPS/CaNORML vaporizer and waterpipe studies
The point, the essence of a bubbler, is that it's a water pipe. You are defeating the purpose. You could easily just hide it in the back of a closet, put some clothes to cover the view, then dump the water when the time is convenient. Having said that, bubblers need to be cleaned. Are you 18 and your parents don't know? Tell them and stop this madness. Oh if everyone was as liberal as I
That is absolute bollox. That study sucks. Water pipes do not filter out more thc then carcinogens. That is a ludicrous claim which you should back up with more then that study if it were true. You don't inhale more tar, you inhale less then a normal pipe ffs, adding water is not throwing your weed away!!!!!Quote:

I didn't say you inhale more tar from the water bong. I said you inhale more tar *per amount of THC inhaled* in the water bong. There is a big difference. If you smoke the same amount of weed in a pipe and a water bong you'll get more tar from the pipe. However, you'll get more THC from pipe also. You'll have to smoke more in the bong to get the same level of "high" producing chemicals you get from the pipe. And since more THC is filtered out by the water then tar, eventually you'll have to smoke more weed to get the same amount of THC (and in the process you'll have inhaled more tar then the original pipe smoke).
The study says water filters out more THC then it does tar. That's all I'm saying. If you disagree, then fine. But at least show a study or something if you have one. Otherwise, I'll go with the NORML study.

the amount of thc loss in water is incredible small as thc is not soluble in water.
some thc can accumulate on the surface of a bubble before it pops releasing the majority of the smoke, the amount of thc lost is not even worth mentioning and common sense proves that water filters something bad out, look at bong water, would you prefer all that crap to be in your lungs?
Kind of reminds me of this morning. I was really high. I spilled my bong water. I get really clumsy when I'm high so you can count on me knocking over the bong or breaking something at least once. So, anyway, I packed the bowl again and started token. About ten minutes later I noticed there was no bubbling sound cause I forgot to put more water in it. Gotta love being that high.Quote:

Well, keep on toking..

Both the tar and the cannabinoids in which the THC resides stick to the water without dissolving into it. And the study found more THC sticks to the water then even tar.Quote:

And I'm not sure yet exactly what your reasoning is for saying the study is wrong. The studies were done in a high-tech lab that analyzed the actual particulate content of the smoke on average. And the organizations behind the studies are reputed to represent the interests of cannabis smokers fairly well and objectively.
If you have another study backing up what your saying, by all means please let us know about it. Until then, if seeing a bunch of tar and sticky THC cannabinoids in your water makes you feel good, then leave the water in your bong. I don't particularly care to have to inhale more tar to get the same amount of THC as I get through my pipe.
I dont need a study
Im going from personal experience
I have a tiny ass .2 bowl on my bong and i can do one bowl of that and be good
When i smoke a pipe i have to go through much more than that.
Also i know a guy who drank a bunch of bongwater and he didnt get high:wtf:
Also look at bong water, smell it, taste it, would you rather that crap be in your lungs???
blunts wouldcompletely solve this problem.
So you go ahead and keep doing whatever works best for you then; do whatever floats your boat. I've got a NORML/MAPS study performed in a high tech lab verifying my personal experience that a pipe gets me high much more efficiently then a bong. Water filters out more THC then tar.
Oh... and the reason your buddy didn't get high from drinking the bong water is because THC is not soluble in water. It sticks to water; it doesn't dissolve in it. (tar sticks to water also, and doesn't dissolve in it either). Your body won't absorb THC unless it is dissolved in oil or alcohol or vaporized (by fire). If you want to drink THC and get high you have to soak it in alcohol or fat... THC dissolves into alcohol and fat. Drinking THC in water is like eating raw weed... it won't do much to you.
