marijuana in college... (green dragon question)

let me start off by saying that i've never smoked before, and i'm not totally sure if i will. i have been reading up on it a lot though lately, and its a possibility that i might be open to in the future... only time will tell.

now on to my main topic:
i'm a freshman in college, and after reading about the green dragon recipe, i showed it to a friend of mine. i was curious if there was any way that this could be made at school in my dorm here. there is a kitchen in my building, but i don't know if that would be a viable option. i'm assuming that preparing it (at least the oven part) will be very smelly, right? is there anyway to do this without causing the whole dorm to smell? do you think it could be done outdoors using a barbecue or something like that?

also, how does the high compare to the high obtained from smoking or from other means of ingesting it (like brownies perhaps or maybe firecrackers or something)? my friend seems to be of the opinion that brownies and the like aren't as good as smoking. he says that its more of a "sleepy" high. i was wondering if you guys could maybe characterize and compare you experiences with these different methods of getting high.

thanks alot everyone :)

smoke first...ask questions later
but, you could just put an 8th into like 2 oz. of 151 and leave it for a month, shaking it once every day or two
peace

EDIT: oh yeah and that wont smell;)

Just smoke the herb, lol. Chances are it will cause some smell.. enough to be noticable in my opinion. If you ever get the chance, definitely make some brownies... the high is different but extremely enjoyable. For me, it wasn't so much a sleepy high as it was a body high. My entire body was tingling and stuff... it was awesome!

But definitely start out by just tokin the damn stuff. It's good to get some experience in that regard so you know what traditional cannabis use is like before you compare it to.. say.. brownies because the high is different.

Don't eat it first. It's much harder to measure the correct dose and it can be much more intense. I had a bad trip from eating it, I never knew what could happen (see Bad Trips on erowid.org)

Don't cook in your dorm! It will reak to high heaven. I don't know about it being a "sleepy high" but it is deffinetally three times more potent. I recommend smoking it your first time.:thumbsup:

Id smoke the first time, then after a while begin to experiment with cooking etc. Most people dont even get high their first few times, so youd just be wasting the bud if you cooked it. That, and if you were one of the few that get high the first time, you would get uber-baked from eating.

If you decide that you do like it, get a vaporizer. They don't reek like a joint. Really, there is VERY little odor when you vape. Also, you use less to get high, your lungs won't get messed up, and what's left over is fine for brownies. Yep, you can get high twice off the same weed. Another suggestion is to write your college papers high and clean them up straight. Marijuana is a "mind lubricant" and you see new connections of ideas, however, spelling and grammar don't fare too well when you're stoned. Unless you're a math wizard, don't do your math stoned!. :( It is not a wise thing to do! Six years ago, I graduated with honors for my AS (like an AA degree, but in science) with a 3.75 GPA in my early 50s. Surprise! I'm old enough to be your granny! And I'm a teacher's aide/tutor! :stoned: Been toking for 40 years! Moderate use is the key to a higher IQ in young adults-- read this http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/content/abstract/166/7/887
Watch your diet in college and avoid the "freshman 15" by eating wisely. Limit your partying to Friday and Saturday. Get to bed at a reasonable hour. Drive sober. Get your homework in on time and you'll do just fine.:thumbsup:

i forgot abt the garbage bag method...

dude lol go to ur local smokeshop. buy a nice bong or bubbler and get a gram or so from someone and blaze. i promise that bong wont go to waste, youll love it lol.

yeah my suggestion, is buy a half 8th of crippy about 25$ worth, get a cheap glass bowl. and try smoking a couple days in a row and see how you like being stoned. dont cook with it or make green dragon on your first trys.

lol^^ helll yeah

My first time I had a brownie made by a friend of mine from leaves of his plant that died before it got buds. :( I didn't get high. :( But, I did have the "stupids" alllll day the next day though... it was like all the bad effects and none of the good. That being said, not everyone's brownies are made from their friend's dead plant's leaves. :)

It will all smell in the dorms, and you might get caught, but smoking is easier to hide than cooking in a public area!

I say, find some woods, or a river bank, and go smoke a bowl.

THEN make brownies if you just need some variety in your life.

well i still haven't tried it yet, but if i do, i think i'll take your advice about it. oh and there are plenty of good smoke spots around the campus... i've hung out a few times on the weekends with some of my friends that smoke and i know all the good spots lol.

i reallly didnt read shit you wrote but smoke it before you eat it, and dont get a vaporizer. thata is like an internet thing honestly i have s3een one ever person use one of those in my life and he was a choad using a vaporizer is like using something other than a fork to eat your meals it aint american....nor is it english, japanese or anything else other than dumb. fuck vaporizers. honestly here is the only place i hear people talk about them. smoke your weed dont do weird shit to it set it on fire and breath in the smoke it gets you high and you get to be a dragon for awhile. no shame.

CRUNK JUICE!

WTF? :(

If your going to try cannabis, SMOKE it first, get high by smoking it before eating it. If you go ahed and eat it straight away it will mess up your perception of what it's like.

And eating it is WAY more instence then smoking, lasts longer, and it harder to get the right dose, as it takes like an hour for it to start to kick in.

There isnt a college in the world where kids arent smoking pot.. Just find someone to smoke with and tell them its your first time. If you bake for your first time you will probably be turned off because youll get an all day high that you might find too intense.
