I just got a new one and wanted to know if the water takes away some of the THC from the smoke?

is THC water solluable? i know it's alcohol solluable. even if it is, you're going to get really stoned either way, because you'll be able to take BIG hits. also remember the water filters tar, so its easier on the lungs too (if your getting ocdish)

thc is not water soluble, but yes technically you will lose a bit of thc.
not enough to fuss about, but yes there is a finite amount.
reason being, thc is not water soluble in its' raw form. however, once it's been heated, and the thc and cannabinoids become active, then yes it's a bit easier to get it to transfer to other mediums.
all in all, nothing to worry about. i think it's a fair trade for also reducing carcinogens.

Why would you want to use a bubbler without water?

THC isn't water soluble so if it catches any of it, it's not enough to make a difference. It takes more of the other cannabinoids away than it does the THC.

lol you won't notice it one bit man!
Don't be worried about it, if you are then se a grinder and scraape the shit out of it and smoke it in a pipe or something. That'll get you high with one toke.

a grinder, like a coffee grinder or a blender would work.
you'll see a bunch of stuff in there (i dont know how to describe except it doesnt look like a grinder)
and if you smoke it you get really high.

its not enough to notice at all, if anything it is better for you because most of the tar and junk gets filtered out so you are getting a cooler cleaner smoke that is less crap and more pure thc.

what do the other cannabinoids do?You ever notice how different kinds of weed have different kinds of highs? That's because they all have a different percentage of the other cannabinoids combined with the THC. Some of them cause a more drowsy high. Some of them cause a more trippy high. Some of them cause a more stimulative high. So on and so forth.

So on and so forth.so in conclusion, bubblers reduce the effect of THC and other cannabinoids which makes u experience a less powerfull high then if u had smoked it from a pipe?

Ok, I'll put it this way..... It will work. no other questions needed. You'll get as high as normal, i promise.

So when smoke goes into the bong isn’t it a bubble of air
Therefore the smoke in the middle of that bubble is still suspended in air and only the outsides of that bubbke touch water also when the bubble reaches air isn’t that the same smoke in the middle let right back out the same way
And the water gets dirty so that means its either cleaning the smoke or OR… just taking some smoke away from the toke ,giving u less??? just got stoned and noticed it dont know if im making sense or just being stoned...well yeah what do u guys think?

You know.....like a cigarette filter. It filters out some of the bad shit, such as some of the other cannabinoids/tar that may not be quite as healthy for you as the THC. Have you ever smoked resin? Resin/tar is the shit that is filtered out in the water. It's all of the stuff that may not be very good for you, and some of it's being filtered out through the water. It may be some stuff that will make the smoke more potent, but you also get bigger hits when using bubblers/waterbongs and you can hold the smoke in longer because it's cooler and cleaner and doesn't make you cough quite as easily, so the trade-off is worth the loss of a very miniscule amount of THC.
Trust me dude......you'll enjoy smoking from a bubbler or a waterbong, and it will get you superblazed.

if you don't want to lose THC then don't use a lighter because that kills WAY more THC then any bubbler. invest in a vaporizer if you want to be frugal.

but ok :)I'm actually pretty sure that resin contains more of the other cannabinoids than it does THC. You ever notice that the high you get from resin doesn't last as long as the high you get from smoking bud?
