    Do you save on weed by not smoking joints? I think I get more hi out of my pipe (which has a pretty decent sized bowl) then I do with a normal sized joint. What do you guys think?

    joints usually waste a lot of thc. plus it's burning for a longer time while you aren't inhaling the smoke than a bowl. Theres a lot of factors, adn this gets covered a lot as a question, but yeah, joints waste weed. If you like smoking them, try regs joints. or just smoke your expensive weed in joints and waste some if you have $ to burn (almost literally)

    if your just burning pinch hits, eanough for a hit or 2, then i would say its much more efficient than joints but when uv got a fully packed bowl it burns just as much if not more between between hits, especialy when u get the people who torch the bowl throughout the whole hit, u only need a small cherry to get her started.

    I heard soMewhere that joints get you about 28% THC, bong/pipe gets you around 76% THC and vaporizers get like 98% THC. So yeah. Joints suck, I prefer my bong and my homemade vape.

    i love joints and blunts, but yeah they waste some extra weed.

    best bet, short of a vaporizer, if you want to conserve your herb is to either get a onehitter and smoke that exclusively or else just load up your bowl one small hit at a time, take the hit as well as fresh air with it and hold it in for a few seconds. this will get the most good out of the smoke, and smaller hits are more comfortable and able to be inhaled deeply and held without irritation.

    it takes longer to get high this way, but its the single most efficient method of conserving weed while still burning it.

    Haha, oh definitely. This is something seasoned stoners know well. I think I didn't find that out untill I found first hand. For the first few months of smoking pot I only smoked joints. I smoked about the same amount every time, and got sufficiently high. One day I was almost out of weed. I only had enough to roll a TINY as joint, which would only give me a slight buzz. I was gonna take it to smoke at the flea market. I ended up not smoking it (cus my non stoner friend started freaking out when I said I was gonna smoke it in his car). So I bought my first pipe at the flea market. Later that night I decided to rip open the joint and put the pot in the pipe and smoke it. To my surprise, I got pretty high. It was the beginning summer, I didn't have a job, but I had plenty of money from a previous one, I just called my dealer and placed an order for a few ounces, I had this brand new pipe... Lets just say I smoked ALLOT that summer.

    But just think about it. When you smoke a joint, theres that constant stream coming off the end, and after you take a hit, smoke will gush out the front. As opposed to a pipe, when theres only a little that comes out of the bowl after a hit. Also, pipe smoke is cooler than joint smoke, and better for you.

    I definitely get higher off of joints or blunts, but I go through my weed so fast that way so I smoke bowls 98% of the time. Sometimes I don't get high at all, I have such a high tolerance. I've had better weed lately so that helps, but I sure wish I could buy lots of of weed and smoke lots of joints.
