filtering THC??

[sunbrother]

I recently bought 200 empty cig shells.
(cigarettes with filters but no tobacco inside)

it was a very nice buy.
espesally for only like 3 bucks.


but my main concern is,
if i pack it with herb,
will the filters filter out the THC?

i really dont feel like wasting herb to find out.


thanks alot guys.
:thumbsup:

If you put anything in between the smoking bud and your lungs it will filter THC, since the THC is in the smoke, it will adhere to the filter, I mean you'll get high, but not as high :thumbsup:

Smoke joints :jointsmile:

damn!

thats what i suspected.
ripping the filters out and putting in paper roaches is so tedious.

or maybe i could just smoke the filter in a bowl afterwards.
(just kidding)

[sunbrother]

orrrrrrr.

you could just rip the filter into little bits afterwards,

and snort them.

high to the max, my friends.

Unfiltered is the way to go. Some studies have even shown that some types of filters (water in the NORML study I saw) filter out more THC than tar (by percentage). So you end up having to get more tar to get the same high.

For instance, lets say you got 2 grams of tar and 1 grams of THC in an unflitered bowl (pulling numbers out of my ass). By filtering with water you would get 1 gram of tar but only 0.3 grams of THC. The tar was reduced by 50%, but the THC was reduced by 80%! Therefore, you end up getting more tar then you would have without filtering, because you have to smoke more herb to get to the same "high". So to get the 1 gram of THC you originally wanted to get, you would have to do 3 bowls and get 3 grams of tar instead of 2!

Actually, vaporizing is the way to go. But if you have/want to smoke... unfiltered is the way to go.

Those empty shells you bought would be awesome for smoking in public though. It would look totally normal. Just spit on it and eat it if a cop smells something funny. ;-)

The tar was reduced by 50%, but the THC was reduced by 80%!

... oops, make that 70%. Math was never my strong point. You get the picture though.

no need for correction, my friend.

you've done more than your share of research.
and i thank you for the help.

the only problem is,

now i have 200 empy cig shells laying around.

maybe i can make a helmet out of them or somthing.

Just pack em and rip off the filters.

Although I wouldn't use them, if they're anything like regular cigarettes the paper burns very fast.

Fill with half tobbaccy and half wacky and give em out to your friends who don't smoke weed next time they ask to bum a cig. They'll be like WTF is goin' on?

eh... I like the helmet idea better.

[sunbrother]

cig helmets are amazing yo.

if you see a kid walk into a classy resturant with a pile of glue and cigs on his head,

make sure you treat that young man with love and respect.
because that young man will be me.


and cig papers do burn outrageously fast.
but its was like 3 bucks,

even if i just throw them out,
i dont regret the purchase.

every purchase is an adventure, my brothers.



-love to all.
