thank all for your help

i never smoked pure weed. the weed i buy in in small blocks and it is heated and crumbled in a joint with tobacco. i've been told the best bong is a gravity bong cos it gets you very high, but do you sugest it to me as a beginner?

what about cooking? is it better?
a friend told me a recipie which is quite good (for him)

you take a tablespoon filled with oil (sunflower oil, olive oil..) and put weed in the spoon with oil.
heat it until the weed seems to melt
then mix it with youghurt and enjoy,

anyone heard of this before? thanks
