coughing is a reflex that occurs when something is in the throat that shouldnt be there. hot, harsh smoke will trigger this.
yeah and the bigger the hit, the more hot air and throat irritation...
Coughing helps you clear up the dirt in the passages in your throat.. i.e. what climbing high said.
Yeah, but why are you 100 times more likely to cough on weed than a cigarette? After all, cigarettes are much more harmful.Quote:

alot depends on the marijuana that you get, some varieties if grown right provide for a very smooth and enjoyable smoke. While on the other hand, i got some cali red bud one time, and the littlest hit would sort of expand in your lungs and make you cough rabbits, great high though
I know red bud too well. :( I'm in Cali.
Coughing is good 4 ya :D
I've never tried tobacco but I'd venture to guess that the weed smoke is harsher without the filter. It's not necessarily the heat because even when I take a nice big bong hit with ice cold water I'll cough like a mofo. But I don't complain though, because coughing gets you way higher.
Coughing also isn't so bad... it actually makes you have a better high. When you cough you rip open a little tissue in your throat... when you take a hit right after coughing, the THC hits the area in the throat and is absorbed by the open tissue, usually giving you a somewhat better high than if you had not coughed... that's what i've heard about it anyway... and when i cough when i smoke... means i'm getting pretty high... and that's always a good thing :)
i bring air in through my nose during my hit so it doesnt burn.

i hardly ever want to cough anymore....how long you been smoking? the only time i wanna cough is when it's really harsh....other than that i can take a decent sized hit and hold it pretty well

try using a waterbong or get a empty glass bottle put it in a fridge or freezer for 1/2 an hour. Then light your joint and put the lit end in your mouth and the unlit end in the bottle now blow on the lit end. this will fill the bottle with smoke, put your thumb on the top of the bottle for a few seconds to cool down the smoke then inhale from the bottle
