Activating a joint

[Coelho]

To Coehlo -

You understand the concept of heating the bud at the right temperature at the right time in order to ''activeate" the weed, or increase its potency. Maybe you can understand my question. If i perform the same steps in activating a bud, but use an already rolled joint, will it work?

In theory, yes. But there is a lot of practical problems... If you heat the rolled joint in the oven, the rolling paper may catch fire...
Once i put a rolled joint in the microwave, and the rolling paper started to release a lot of smoke... so, for avoiding this problems, it would be wiser to activate the weed before rolling the j. :thumbsup:

Ok then - i'll try it. But im going to be pissed off if it IS aload of bullshit. Maybe i will be proved wrong, but i'm not expecting to be.

I'll do it tonight and post back.

I've actually had weed before that was still a little wet and put it in the microwave as well as the oven to dry it out.I never knew about this "activating",I was just trying to dry my bud out to smoke.Well I did get really stoned but I figured it was just some really good bud.

So I tell a couple of my buddies about how I dried it out to smoke since they were having some problems smoking theirs.Stuff just wouldn't stay lit and burn right.They were like that takes the potency away,your burning up all the THC.I never thought much more of it and figured they were right.

Then after another harvest I have the same problem.So I decide to do some research and look up this theory of THC being burned away by using a microwave to dry it.Well I came across a couple sights and they were saying yes it's possible to over heat your bud and take it's potency away by destroying THC levels.However you could "activate" your bud by heating it to a certain temperature for a better high.So once again I put some buds on a paper towel and place them in the microwave.Again I felt a great high off of it.So maybe it's not just the weed being good,you really can activate a joint.I mean everytime I've dried bud out using a microwave or oven I experience a great high.So after thinking about it and reading the science here yes you can activate a joint and it is a better,more intense high I think.

I'm not going to go out of my way to do this with all my weed,but if it needs to be dried more no doubt I will.I'm always ready to smoke my weed right away.I just break it down,roll it up,light it and activate my mind.

It really isnt that hard of a damn proccess, for those who are saying why not just smoke it.

Are you telling me you wouldnt want to have weed that got you higher then normal, for all of around 30 seconds of waiting before being able to smoke it?

Just give it a try, if it doesnt work for you, then you can come back to the boards and mock the hell out of the rest of us. If it does work though, then you can get higher then you would normally off the same weed, and thats just kickass.

I was skeptical about it. However, after reading a few different threads about activating weed, curiosity got the better of me. I wrapped enough for a bowl in a napkin and put in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Took it out and smoked it immediately. It works. One bowl feels like an entire joint.

I am going to try this shit right now. One little piece.
