    Yup.. you can definitely lose tolerance after a hiatus of about 10-30 days, depending on how much you normally smoke. If you're only smoking once a week then you don't have anything to worry about.. at least, not for a long while.

    Smoking once a week will build little to no tolerance. The half-life of THC is ~3 days, which means that when you seperate sessions by ~7 days, you only have trace amounts left each time, which is like pressing a reset button. Smoke every day, or several times a day, and you will quite quickly develop a strong tolerance.

    2 years of heavy smoking and I still haven't really noticed tolerance issues. It's gonna suck when I do though lol, spending too much money as is.

    So you get as high as your first time every time you smoke? And for just as long? Any diminishment in quality or quantity, all other things being equal, is due to tolerance.

    ^ If you need to ask forget it. Don't worry about it. I smoke daily multipul times. My tolerence is sky high but all that means is if I want to get really fucking high I haveto smoke a LOT. If I wanna be normally high it's only like 2 bowls so you know.... Stuff.

    I still get pretty ripped off 1 bowl, though I have noticed the one thing that has developed is a peak point of which I can get no higher regardless of the weed I am smoking in w/e amount. Before I would always try to get higher than the time previous and looking back it was fun, but almost pointless to view the high as only trying to get higher instead of being content with the level I was at. Now I just smoke to get nice and relaxed except for the occasional time when I want to "fucked up" with friends. I also smoke multiple times daily (when I have weed). These 3 days without weed have actually been nice in a way that when I do smoke next I will appreciate it more.

    yeah 30 minutes is too short, try cutting back so you can bump it back to 1-2 hours :)
