stems as screens

how many people here have used stems for screens at one point or anohter, you know like chucnk a couple of small pieces to big to fit through the hole in the bottom of the bowl.

Never have, but not a bad fucking idea at all.

that wont work just buy a bag of screens for a dollar

its a good idea if you have to do it, but i dont have a screen i just load the nug without breaking it up

Yeah i've done that a few times, but only when I don't have a screen handy

I just break off a piece of a nug thats big enough to not get sucked down, and put that on the bottom. Sometimes I just put a whole nug in though. I don't really like packing stems as I find they produce less smoke, and a harsher hit.

Definitely did that once. A friend and I were sitting around with no herb, but a whole shit load of stems. We picked the stems clean of little pieces of bud and managed to amass enough shake for a good sized bowl, but alas we didn't have a screen, so I made one with some of the small stems.

I was actually very proud of myself. :D

nah, i just use bud. i have a wood pipe that i dont use a screen with it, i find it more natural, and the bud doesnt get sucked in, its pretty sweet.

i don't generally use screens either but sometimes you know you have th at shake left over not quite enough for a joint or whatever, and i usually have atleast one stem in my bud (i always save it til the end, i never pick stems out and throw them away, they stay in my stash can til my bud is gone) i come to that left over shake and a chunk a stem down in the end, i never usually smoke it/them tho, smoke til the bud is cashsed and that's it.

Funnily enough thats what i use as screen for my bong, i always save the small stems from my grows for it. I dont use my bong much though :(

I've never tried it, but it seems like it would make the smoke harsh as hell. Stems taste like pickled ass.

naw i use glass screens

The idea is you dont burn the stems.

but imagine if you toke too hard.....youd get that mining burning stem taste
