Is it true that a single bong hit is the equivelant to 6 pipe rips. I heard this a while back. i was wondering what you all thought about this.
I agree with the post above...it does depend on the quality and potency of your bud....but a bong does usually get you "higher" so to speak.......it whatever though...bud is bud and however you smoke it you tend to get high.....so just sit back and relax....and float away..................peace and vision.........
Well, it probably has more to do with the THC/Tar ratio in the smoke when you take a hit that's your full lung capacity. With a pipe, a lot of it is tar; the more tar that's there, the less room for THC. With a bong rip, though, you filter out most of the tar and basically have a lot more THC in that one hit. I'm not sure about the number, but a bong rip is definitely more effective than a pipe hit.
Bongs actually do filter out THC in the water filtration process, but that doesn't mean you're going to get any less high nor does it mean that smoking with water is any better for you. The main purpose of a bong is to cool the smoke so that when you inhale you inhale more smoke, which will get you higher than lets say a rip off of a bowl. Many inactive cannibinoids, carcinogens, and other unwanted debris in the smoke are also filtered out but since you are inhaling more smoke than usual it is no better for you.
I can sure as hell tell you that a gravity bong hit will fill your lungs with smoke. No filtered our shit just the smoke pushed up by water. A whole 2-liter filled with smoke compared to a pipe i would say its at least 6 times.
Yeah, but we're not talkinga bout which is better for us right now. The sollubility of THC is also really low. So low that it doesn't really have any bearing on how high you get at all. The only way you woudln't get high with the sollubility of water is if you tried to filter a small bong rip through a 50 gallon container. A fun thing to do is to milk a chamber gravity bong style, and then water bong style and look at the differences in the color of the smoke. The gravity bong should be a dirty white looking thing, 'cause there's still a lot of tar and cacinogens. The smoke in the water bong will be a basically be a pure white color, 'cause it's mostly THC and some other chemicals that come in the smoke. What other cannabinoids are filtered through water, though? And are they dissolved? I'm interested to know, 'cause then I want to compare my pipe highs to my bong highs and see what cannabinoid must be the cause of different highs.
Bong hits will get you higher, if the water is cold enough and your lungs can take it, the colder the water, the smoother the smoke, the more you can inhale, the more you inhale at once the higher you get. Like in a gravity bong, you tend to get more higher cuz you can inhale more and inhale faster(but it can be harsh as a muther fucker). A good way to get really high is to take a 4l milk jug and cut the bottom off, make an aluminum foil bowl(bad for you, but try it once, trust me it rocks). Pack the bowl as much as you can(dont pack it down, just fill the bowl with bud). Then light it and pull the milk jug as far up as you can without pullin it out of the water, then put the bowl off and inhale, it is alot of smoke and when I inhaled that I could barely breath without coughing. But I got so fuckin baked off it it wasnt even funny.
id be interested to see about teh otehr cannabinoids too caus so many reports say u can get stoned from bong water. but since thc isnt really water soluable.. then it makes sense that tehre must be otehr chemicals in the billy water that IS pscychoactive. someone should do a study on teh chemical breakdown of bongwater.
