How do YOU smoke the bong?

[RooRsmoker420]

Well I own a bong and my preferred hit includes:

* Ice or Otter pops put into an Ice Tray and used in an Ice Catcher
* Cold Gatorade or Tea in the bongs base
* My big RooR diffuser
* Ash catcher with hot water in it or hot tea (REALLY flavors the smoke)

This way, if we have things with really strong flavors like Sobe or Gatorade, and with otter pops or those other drinks frozen and used as ice, we get smoke that is literally a little colored. We used grape gatorade with grape gatorade ice in the top and just Water in the ash catcher. Holy crap the smoke is faintly blueish purple!

And the inhaled smoke tastes almost like candy, not as strong, but definitely even around hookah tastes, sometimes even stronger.

Anyway,

I like to corner it when I burn it, but move towards the center. So I crisp up the corner and save a little weed but also get a good hit.

I inhale a bit faster on the bong since its filtering through 2 different liquids. Through the ash catcher with the hot water it literally almost eliminates any harshness in the smoke.

The cold water recools it down, and makes it even less harsh, and the ice makes it a refreshing it.

I wait until I see a thick blanket of smoke in there. I'm not talking like light, I literally mean like the bong has nothing but a thick, thick bunch of smoke in there, its velvety when I remove the ash catcher and inhale faster. Sometimes I'll cap the bong and take a deep breath before finishing my hit off.

I build it up slow, but if I lit it too hard or I have to light it a lot to get anything, it pretty much builds itself up.

I try to hold it in for 5+ seconds, its a big hit, there is TONS of THC getting into my blood stream only within the 1st 2-3 seconds. Its hard to hold in sometimes so I might cough, but very rarely with an ash catcher/ice.

When I have to use no ice or ash catcher, sometimes I'm not used to the harshness that also comes with smoking from the normal carb that came with my bong or smoking blunts/joints...but I can do those. For my personal bong and the way I normally use it though, I take my hits by lighting it nicely, letting it build up, and inhaling it quickly and letting it sit in my lungs for a decent amount of time.

For different bongs/methods of smoking however, its subjective. And every time I take a break from smoking I usually get pretty active exercise wise and reinstate my lungs to perfect healthiness...meaning that when I start smoking again I can't take hits even close to my old ones, my friends told me, after my first time smoking in 40+ days, to not take the hits I used to take since I can't handle it.

I don't see bongs as 'work and effort'. It's enjoyable to me, never work.

The girls I usually smoke with like blunts cuz they can hit it gently...I hate that wacky tabaccy.

I have also noticed that girls really like blunts for the nice and slow pull they offer. Actually, the only person I've ever seen puke after hitting a bong too hard was a girl. Weird...

Anyways, first thing is retrieving the bong and deciding how I want to smoke it for that session: super cold water with ice in the tube or warm water for a smooth therapeutic hit (don't knock it until you try it). I usually grind my buds up and leave the weed in a small lengthwise folded piece of paper for dumping into the bowl. After I load one up and pack it down ever so slightly, I corner the bowl but at the same time rip it hard enough to smoke half the green off the top. I always try and hold this first hit as long as possible because I know the first hit gets you the most buzz. Then, after that first monster hit, I spark up small corners of the rest of the green and smoke it slowly. I always hit it super hard once, then take my time with the rest of the bowl.

dig the post...
my ritual... drive and get my stuff obviously
leave as soon as possible for my dudes house is usually packed full of high school kids, who think they know to much, get home open my bag(never check my bag when i buy anymore... cause i just don't get ripped off... i like to save it till i'm about to smoke... the suspense is awsome.) examine the weed for a couple minutes(well till my lady bitches cause she aint been stoned all day)... then apologize to it for smoking something so beautiful(for real ask my lady) load a fat bong hit (more like 3 hits to the typical one... i like to preserve as much as i can... but i also hate loading 6 seperate bong hits) for me and my lady.

Important(not really) i do not gring my hits, i know i'm growing lame in this last year of teen-hood but... to brutal. it takes me a half an hour to stop coughing... welll atleast when my buddy makes it for me... he like to throw unsuspected pieces of hash in from time to time, just to see if you'll pass out.

i like to just barely touch the weed with my lighter, suck kinda hard at first get a little cherry going, retract the lighter flame then inhale long and smooth... maybe light it again if i need to(anyone bored yet) then i like to hold my hits for a good amount of time... not ghost hit, mostly cause i have an issue with coughing... very loud cough, but not just spit it out like venom. then i vegitate infront of some tv screen or go to school, or get drunk... fuck or... you know... whatever i would do normally

I hate that wacky tabaccy.

Then why are you on this site?

[Faddenator]

I don't have much of a ritual, but I never pack a bowl without grinding it and taking a nice big sniff of the freshly ground dank. YUM.

Sometimes I get a chubby

[maro69camaro]

Got to call the wife in, if shes home we aways some together, i never have been a guy for grinding but i do break the nug up a little by hand. take a nice fat corner rip and hold it for maybe 5+ secs. she rips just as hard as me and hate to smoke blunts. latley things have changed and we have been smoking the gravity bong:stoned: pack just the hit rip then pass.

[scrumby]

I like to bong out with my dong out.

[ForgetClassC]

I am a believer in the idea that the bong capacity is the size of the hit. I fill it to capacity and inhale it in one go. I don't really even use a bong, I use a Zong with a double Z neck. I cannot stand bongwater touching me. Thats nasty.

Lol.......:thumbsup:

i just take a hard fast rip. And hold it in till I cough so much I can't breathe for a good minute. I guess that makes me a smoking masochist..
