:thumbsup: I am in the same boat, that being someone with asthma, so I sympathize with your situation. I have been vaporizing for about five years now and highly recommend that you try. However, it may not be the answer. Vaporization still has the potential to irritate the lungs. One of the problems with vaporization is that you tend to sit and vaporize over a longer period of time than you would if you were smoking. So there is still plenty of potential for irritation with vaporization. One solution is filtering the vapor through water via a bong. Sometimes water filtration does not provide the necessary relief. Specifically, if you have seasonal allergies that trigger asthma, like me, then vaporization might not be a good idea.

Due to my seasonal allergies, I have become a seasonal/occassional vaporizer. The rest of the time I eat or drink my thc. Like you I bake with cannabutter. My favorite recipe is the double chocolate cookie. The butter process can be time consuming as well as resource consuming. As you probably know, one can go through alot of weed if cooking.

I recently discovered an alternative to cannabutter, which I highly recommend. My recommendation is an alcohol tincture of thc. It is incredibly simple to make, consumes less weed than the cannabutter, and is as potent as you want to make it. You need to look for Master Wu's recipe for Green Dragon right here on the Cannabis.com forum. I am using green dragon this allergy season.

Once the tree pollen disappears and temps come back up, I will return to vaporization. As for vaporizers, if you are new to this type of product, I can provide accurate reviews of several vaporizers: vapirs, supreme vaporizer, and the eterra. I hear volcanos are good, but I cann't justify the $450 price tag. Never used the wicked roots vaporizers, but here again the price tage is too high. Accurate reviews are very hard to come by with respect to vaporizers.

Hope this helps. mjlupi the hemphistorian
