Do bongs lessen the effects?

Bongs burn weed pretty fast but get you fucked after a few hits but spliffs conserve your weed but in my opinion dont get you as high well for me this is how it is

BONGS are the shit when it comes to gettin ripped, other than a vape but decent vapes cost a pretty penny, i just picked up a new HVY bong about two weeks ago its the third of the that brand i have bought and cant complain one bit... i like Jerome Baker work too...

MAPS - Volume 6 Number 3 Summer 1996 -

"Disappointingly, waterpipes performed uniformly worse than the unfiltered joint. The least bad waterpipe, the bong, produced 30% more tar per cannabinoids than the unfiltered joint. Ironically, the pipe with the electric mixer scored by far the worst of any device. This suggests that water filtration is actually counterproductive, apparently because water tends to absorb THC more readily than noxious tars. Like the waterpipes, the cigarette filter also performed worse than the unfiltered joint, by about 30%. Researchers speculate this is because cannabinoids are exceptionally sticky and adhere to other solids. Hence, any filtration system that picks up particulates is likely also to screen out cannabinoids."

I think the thing about bongs is it enables you to take bigger (and perhaps more) hits before throat irritation sets in, but this MAPS study would seem to indicate that of all the smoking methods out there, bongs are the least efficient, THC-wise.

So, you can, in theory, get higher because you can smoke a fair amount more, but you're wasting more THC in bongs (which is, contrary to the common wisdom, apparently at least partially soluble in water). As to whether or not you save some on having less sidestream smoke, I do not know, but the answer is not cut and dry.

Bongs definitely give me a stupider high. I mean, with a bong, I just feel IQ points drain away. Which, somewhat alarmingly, I quite enjoy from time to time.

u get stoned the same ammount, bongs just spped up the speed and intensity of the initial hit. And in my opinion make the smoke alot more pleasant.

1 bong rip gets me level headed, 2 bong rips get me stoned, 3 bong rips I'm out of this world and I'm ready for 10 more :stoned: . This is out of my friends $130 bong, it's about 20 inches tall and has a diffuser, ice catcher, and a super flow.

OK, well I tried it myself. I took about 10-15 hits from it, and was absolutely blazed out of my face. >_>

I don't think I've ever laughed so hard for no reason. Even the sound of movement made me cry with laughter.

It's 50x better than a spliff. I hate tobacco. It tastes like absolute crap. Plus, I suck at rolling.
