    I herd that after 10 seconds of holding the smoke in that all the thc is absorbed by your lungs? Is it true? HmHmHmHmHm

    I saw the results of a test/survey that some marijuana site did a while ago.

    I think the results said something about in 5 to 8 seconds, all THC is absorbed, and the only thing that happens after that is the extra tar in the smoke absorbs into your lungs (not cool).

    Again, I don't know how reliable the survey was, but I remember seeing something like that.

    I still get pretty high and I blow my smoke out quick, so ...

    Its impossible for it all to have been absorbed methinks, but the amount that hasnt been absorbed is negligable after around 5 seconds id say

    95% of all the THC is absorbed after five seconds of holding a hit.

    It really depends on your lungs.


    You know that warm, tingling feeling you get in your lungs when you hit? That's the THC absorbing; when it subsides, exhale.

    of course there's tar in jane... it's a chemical reaction called fire and part of the stuff that it forms is tar.
    I don't believe you can feel the thc absorbing... sounds like nonsense but I'll try feeling it :)

    thc is the chemical in weed that makes u high, u gronk

    and yeh insane jester as floris said, if you burn anything, youll get tar, tar is jsut a generic name for hydrocarbons isnt it?

    And i dont think tar is put in cigarettes at all.. if you open a cigarette its not like the leaves are all sticky and stuck together. i would have thought tar would jsut hinder the cigaretttes burning, which is undesired.

    THC is short for Delta 9 - tetrahydrocannabinol

    I never thought I'd see someone say "What's THC?" on a Marijuana forum.

    Gimme a break.

    Is 95% of all the oxygen you inhale absorbed EVER?

    No- only about 20% WITH a breath. Unless you HOLD IT LONGER- than a much higher % is absorbed.

    A normal breath is every 10 seconds or so- but you can hold your breath for up to 3 minutes or more, ABSORBING MORE OXYGEN FROM YOUR intial LUNG FULL THE WHOLE TIME.

    I understand your point, but we're not talking about oxygen, but about THC... oxygen doesn't get you high...

    tetrahydrocanabinol.. one of the two active ingrediants in marijuana thats gets u high theres another chemical that is mostly in sativa, caled cbd i think and the balance of the two is basiacly what differs the high of a sativa/indica, a mind high or a body high. and i hear that like right wen u inhale since its hotter that the largest amounts of thc/cbd are released the fastest( first 5 secs). soo takeing if u just hold the smoke in longer ur just wasting time.. doing a hole bunch of quick hits will get u more high then a few slow hits.
