I couldn't find any of the infamous cigarette threads, so lemme start one

i've been smoking for a few hours now - 3 bongs, but mostly gonna stick to spliffs now

and i just smoked a cigarette.
i know a lot of people debate about this, and i've never really bothered until now:
as soon as i took a draw on the cig, i felt my whole body rush and the weed high that was in my head, was now in every part of my body.
it wasn't just a nicotine rush, cos i smoke tobaco all the time and know the difference.
it just seemed to make the weed peak. and i mean PEAK!!

so why do some people speak against the mix?

 

bcuz ciguretz r bad 4 u and envirnment so dont

 

It seems to be a cultural thing. In the US, everyone (yes, I know I'm generalizing ) seems to be so gung ho against smoking tobacco whereas over here in the UK (and rest of Europe for that matter) it's pretty much the norm to skin up with tobacco. I don't smoke anymore (neither pot nor tobacco) but when I did, I always smoked spliffs.. they're much nicer to smoke, burn way better and skinning up with just weed seems like such waste anyway.. But I guess it's just a matter of opinion in the end.

 

How long did that peak last? There's only one real peak from a high. And my bet is that if you smoked a 2nd cigarette 15 mins after the first you'd again feel like you had another "peak". You get a tiny buzz from cigarettes alone so why would you not when you were already feeling buzzed? It's just like icing on and already "iced" cake. Who cares why people are against it? If you like to have a stoge when stoned then go for it, your not hurting or doing anything to anyone elses body but yours. Unless you wanna talk about second hand smoke but that's a totally different story.

When I pop E's I feel I smoke cigs and it does seem to boost it a tiny bit but it's not a peak. It last for the time i'm smoking the cigarette to maybe a minute or 2 after, when I was already rolling on cloud 9. So is it necessary? No. But some people like cigarettes and to each their own. If you like cigarettes sober you'll love them just as much if not more when not sober.

 

This...

Personally, though, I have never noticed the effect. I don't usually smoke right after getting high, and never paid attention when I did. I'll have to check it out next time.

 

Well I mean, I'm not a noob in anyway but I can't handle cigarettes unless i'm rolling. I never smoke them unless I am. I've never smoked one high on anything but E. I honestly almosted yacked nearly everytime i've tried to even smoke one sober, although i've only even tried a couple times. I'm just not a fan of them.

 

Nah, man. I wasn't trying to imply that.

It's good you don't smoke cigs much, I need to quit myself.

I tried E a couple times. Once it was a pill with a fish imprint. It made me freak out something fierce... Cold sweats and all... That was over 10 yrs ago, never tried E again. Anyways, off topic. Peace

 

tobacco does not get you higher, except MAYBE in a spliff because the stimulant properties increase the rate at which thc makes it through your blood stream and into your brain.

i usually smoke a cig after i toke though, since most of my friends smoke as well.

 

-some people may speak against it because they dont like to mix their grass with dirt

-Personally, I HATE spliffs, I like to enjoy the flavor of the herb, and not the other crap

-Many people hold their hits in for a good amount of time, like 5 or more seconds, and some dont want to be holding in tobacco, thats nasty

- On the other hand, after i burn one down ( or vape one down ), I like to enjoy a nice



eace:

 

I always have a cigarette after I smoke. I dont think that it makes you "higher", but I think it relaxes me a little bit and gives me a more intense nicotine rush.

 

my sister smokes those the pack is yellow

 

sorry for the confusion I didn't mean to sound like you were trying to say that. I just meant maybe that's the reason I don't like cigs even when i'm high you know

 

you should tell her to get the full flavors, they are the best

 

I am not sure if she still smokes them

 

cigarettes do make you higher. it's an established medical fact; they increase dopamine levels in your brain. that's why cigarettes and cocaine are so great as well; both pot and cocaine derive much of their effect from increasing global dopamine levels.

 

american spirits are the ones with just pure tobaco--and none of that chemical shit right?--

 

I really enjoy how marijuana opens your airways. When I did smoke cigarettes, I found the nicotine rush to last a few minutes and then for my high to feel diminished because of the tobacco.

 

I like the menthol American spirits, and the yellow ones...but they are so expensive I rarely get them anymore.

 

Yeah. I decided i'm going to smoke how i used to smoke (very rarely) except nothing else other than additive free tobacco.
I saw many articles saying that it doesn't matter if you smoke additive free, it still causes cancer just as much. Now that's a load of shit. They add in so many poisons and carcinogens its crazy. There is 0 logic to those articles. If I smoke for nicotine then why have other crap in it that costs your health?

 

i thought it only helped if you just started smoking ciggerettes...
