How many hits?

[Storm Crow]

If you remove the whip, a Vapor Brother's looks rather like a funky little electric pencil sharpener. I once joked with the hubby that I could easily make a small plate to fit the opening, get some stick-on letters, and just disguise the VB as a "Sharp-o-matic pencil sharpener" and we could leave it in plain sight.

Actually, it is an excellent investment. It is totally silent and will fit into many drawers. Vaping is MUCH easier on the lungs. It smells way less than smoking. It uses less than smoking and you can keep sucking on it for more hits per load. Since the cannabis is not destroyed, the (non-psychoactive) THC-A has time to be transformed into good old THC! What is left over is not worth smoking (harsh), but it is an nice addition to brownies. Yes, you can get high a second time off your weed!

There are several good studies on vaporizing vs smoking, just click the link in my sig and scroll down to the bottom of the post for about a half dozen of them.

And the "lookalike" vaporizers that sell for half the price? Well the ones I've seen are junky and frankly, they stank- they reeked of a strong "plastic" smell.

The VB, on the other hand, seems well built- 3 years of daily use, so far and it has been knocked off the table quite a few times. If you can't afford a Volcano (top of the line vaporizer), a VB is a fair choice.

I would just smoke smoke smoke till you cant taste and smoke. This is usually where I drop the bowl. Sometimes there is a lil' green on the bottom of the bowl packed weed, but you can seperate that and smoke it. Enjoy you stoned moments my man, and dont let any bad trips turn you off.

Smoke it till it's out, load another one or find a more conservative way to smoke if you're not getting high enough... :rasta:

I find loading one hits into the bong bowl is better than loading a whole bowl, it just tastes better, every time its green and the taste is always top green....good stuff, after one or 2 bong bowls Im good, I could smoke more but I dont grow and Im not rich so, one or 2 massive hits from a bong and Im good

You will know when to stop by the taste

Qft. ^Specifically with bongs, very easy to tell.^ Even with a pipe.^ It'll taste like ass pretty much haha.

I get at least 12 hits total out of my bowls, and up to 15 maybe 16 when alone. Corner each hit and aim for a cherry, once its cherried it'll burn pretty slow. Don't just let it burn though keep hitting it, if you stop hitting it use your lighter to cover the bowl to extinguish the cherry.

Cherried means to get the bud glowing red and still able to burn with out a lighter. Looks red like a cherry.

Sorry for the stupid question but how many hits should be taken from a avg. size glass pipe? After the first hit, the weed at the top turns black and the hits after that start to burn a little.

I'm new to marijuana so forgive my rookiness. :stoned:

What you can do is just smoke the bowl and after a couple of hits (depending on how much you pack and how big the bowl is) you will taste the butane of the lighter when you take a hit. If you dont know what butane tastes like, go ahead and take a hit with nothing on the bowl (just a small hit) and ull see what butane tastes like. This is bad so when you taste butane you know ur weed is cashed.

You can also "finger" the bowl (you need to be careful with that though because it can cause extreme laugh attacks) basically just get a finger that can fit all the way to the bottom of the bowl (i can fit my index in my pipe but my whole thumb in my friends pipe because the bowl is just like a huge crater) so when you get ur finger in there ull feel some weed there or just ash. Its quite easy to tell if its ash or some weed in there.. you can always double check and just take a hit and if u get butane taste then its gone...

PD: Remember to make pleasure sounds when u finger the bowl. But trust me... it causes intense laugh attacks and its not advisable if ur smoking and driving! LOL :stoned::rasta:imp::smokin::hippy::jointsmile:
