OMFG! WTF is this in my hitter???

First of all, this is my first post and this forum is amazing. Glad to finally contribute something here.

I have a cigarette hitter, that I use occasionally, and it got clogged tonight and I couldn't unclog it. So, i heated it up and stuck a mechanical pencil inside to push what ever it was to the bottom.

...look what I found....

Is that tar??? I always thought weed was pure and relaxing. I grew up in south America :rastasmoke: and I would have never believed this was in my pipe.

What do you guys think??

That's resin. It's normal. It happens as a result of burning the weed. You can save the resin and smoke it, it wil still get you high.

If you run low/out - it's a great way to recycle your weed

harvest that "black gold" (as we call it), roll it in a ball, and smoke that...different kind of high

:stoned:

Are you guys serious lol???

This looked like fuckin buck nasty shit and stuck to me like super glue.

that will only give you a headache.....clean that out every so often and try not to smoke that....its crap!:mad:

I figured... no way in hell would I have believed ppl smoked this. It's like meth or some shit.

I love the way fresh dro looks :jointsmile:

All that black stuff is is condensed chemicals that were burnt up and stuck on the sides of your pipe. It DOES have a high THC content, but it also has a HIGH concentration of all the bad shit! Don't smoke that, it is VERY bad for you

I'm lookin out homes

Peace,

i smoke my resin from high quality dank, all it is is the smoke that didnt make it the first time

For all of you non-believers out there, smoking resin is in fact BAD for you!

Check this out:

Pipe residue | Cannabis Culture Magazine

Resin is the left over burnt plant material that didn't get ingested the first go around. This sticky substance then absorbs stray smoke that contains THC and other cannabinoids. It may have a concentrated THC content, but it also has a concentrated level of the nasty shit you don't want to inhale...

Educate yourselves and don't believe all of the talk that says that smoking cannabis pipe resin isn't any worse for you than smoking straight cannabis. If you really want some sweet resin, buy a grinder with a kief catcher and save it up for the dry times. There's your REAL resin.

Also, if you happen to be a grower who throws their shake away, DON'T!!! Buy a kief box (Large square with taught metal mesh for sifting) and scrape the trichomes off of your trimmed plant material!!! When you throw away your shake, you lose up to 30% of your plants overall trichomes!!!

Stay up,

SMG

Of course resin is bad for you (I've definitely had acute respiratory problems from it)...But it is OH SOO GOOD!

:stoned:

I can feel the tumor growing just looking at it

:dance:

me and my buddy use pinchies and we have to clean them everyday otherwise they get real wet and nasty inside

the best thing to use to clean them is maybe a six-inch piece of a weed-whip cord/blade plastic thing (the part that whips the weeds)

that looks nasty
:smokin:

I wouldn't go that far. When you smoke a pipe you are inhaling the very same compounds. It's sort of like smoking a roach joint. I don't know if it makes a difference that both the compounds and the THC is concentrated in pipe residue. It takes less of the concentrate to get high.

taken from your link

its concentrated evrything you just smoked, and marijuana does not cause lung cancer, but in fact may fight it.

The quality of smoke really does play a big role in this however! I feel that there must be some reason that there is always some leftover material, I'd like to let that be...

SMG

Anyone that says resin is bad for you, and they wouldn't smoke it had better have cigarette filters on their joints, or inline on their pipes, because if not you are being hypocritical.
No mater how you smoke it you are getting the compounds that make resin like tar, and we have learned by years of research, and statistics from the tobacco industry that filtered cigarettes reduce tar to a much more safe level, and is worth the loss of flavors, and strength. Even the tobacco companies agree, and they have no problem marketing filtered cigarettes.
So for those of you talking about how nasty, and dangerous smoking resin is, put a filter in it.

It would seem to be a desparate thing to do. We used to clean our pipes in everyclear and then a friend would always want to drink it. Only smoked that tar once when we were young and immortal. Nasty stuff.

One question ? If you put it in a vaporizer would that nasty tar burn away or are you getting it there too ?

Marijuana does not cause cancer and there are studies that show the THC does help fight cancer. However, all the carcinogens that you inhale when smoking (unless vapor) can cause cancer.

From - Pipe residue | Cannabis Culture Magazine

"The general consensus is that this material is not good for you to smoke. That's because of the foul taste and the compounds that may be carcinogenic or mutagenic created by the burn. They are collected and concentrated in the residue."

So its bad because it taste bad? lol Also as I said, "carcinogenic or mutagenic created by the burn. I personally dont have a problem smoking it, but I only do when I am desperate lol

Use a vaporizer. Problem solved :thumbsup:

Agreed, I clean out my bong and have a pretty good chunk of resin usually...i just throw it in there and smoke it. its condensed and settled smoke. The downside is that u burn it twice with your flame.

i realize this is an old post but smoking resin gave me an intense headache
