Bingo.

thc vaporizes above a certain point, and will recondense below (think of boiling water and steam) so the colder your water is the more THC its sucking out.

so maybe norml was using super cold water? maybe had they used water at say, 70*celcius, then the results would have been different?

the test, as much as id love to believe otheriwse, seems done really fuckin poorly. just the fact that they only cite two scientific sources and whatnot is pretty depressing, and the fact that they didnt take something like water tempurature into account, especially with a material that is known to vaporise and recondense from tempurature change, seems like a BIG oversight on their part. Especially when some group of stoners on the internet can find flaws in their test.

as much as id like to believe in NORML as a legit organisation, this is kind of embarassing, and will definately make me think twice about citing information from NORML conducted tests when im in a debate.
dankus maximus Reviewed by dankus maximus on . Bongs Confirmed Counter-productive by NORML I am pissed. My last purchase was a nice new bong. i don't like bongs much, but i wanted to be healthy and get good, big hits. apparently, bongs are worse for the health than all other moethods except vaping. also, they waste THC because a good bit is lost in the water. this was all pointed out in a thread called "so i just got really bored and stuffed a cig full of weed" by Zad515 link to NORML study: </title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;"> <style> Rating: 5
