getting the most out of weed

[Dream of the iris]

There are many methods for conserving you're weed but what I find most effective is using a one hitter. See a lot of people base their sessions off of how many bowls they smoke to get high and often times its a huge misconception to say that one bowl=one high. This is most certainly not true unless you have really crappy stuff. For most people it only takes about 5 hits to get stoned. Now a bowl is about 8 to 10 hits and if you pack a bowl and smoke it you end up smoking 10 hits before you ever feel anything which in turn causes you to over hit. You really only needed 5 of those 10 hits but because you smoked it faster than you could feel it, you ended up using those 5 extra unecessary hits. So what I always do is pack the hit individually rather than pack it by the bowl. Depending on what grade of stuff you have depends on how many hits you'll need but for me it takes about anywhere from 2 to 5 hits. Of course this method of conservation is thrown out once you smoke with others because since there are so many hitting it you would have to base you're high off of the bowl rather than the hit....otherwise you and you're friends would be in that smoke session for a while. But this method proved effective for me. I once chilled off of about a quarter of stems for a week and a half using this method when my town was dry.

A waterpipe ROCKS!!... use minimum weed and get maximum stone. I smoked off an OZ zip for an entire year. It has to be a really good grade of weed to do this, but even with schwag, I have been working on a half zip for a couple of months and have only used about half of it.

I had a small glass waterpipe back when I was in high school, and it worked great. These days, I vape - but I'm thinking of getting a waterpipe for those times when I don't have time for the vaporizer.

I also try to make my weed last for a long time - it's not easily available, and quite expensive. I haven't rolled a joint in years - it's too wasteful with today's stuff.

Burn it slow... let it creep up on you. Vaporizers are a good idea too, takes you less to get ripped and the leftovers can be used for whatever you like.

Here are some rules I found out... you can use them to intensify or prolong your high(s):

Timeline of smoking weed:
0-5 minutes --->The more you smoke here affects how INTENSE your high is
after 5 minutes---> this affects how LONG the high lasts (you wont get 'higher' from smoking more here)

that's in my experience.

a lil trick i learned a while ago is that if you have for example one of those metal bowls that you can unscrew, just go ahead and put some weed inside of it to resinate, whilst you smoke the rest of your sack. hell i even do this with my glass bowl, its a pain in the ass but it makes cleaning the resin out extremely easy and it makes whatever weed in the pipe that much stronger.

The cork and jar came together.. I got them at a crafts store. The "gold" bowl is a brass pipe fitting.... 1/4 compression to a 3/8 pipe thread.

In fact I just hit some of my Arjans Ultra Haze #1 in that very pipe

All the stuff can be got going between a crafts store and Lowes or Home Depot. they cost about $12 to make.

Here's a hint... use a piece of the 1/4in brass tube as a drill bit to make the holes in the cork.
