Vaporizer???

[restin]

The other topics on vapos are too old to be replied to. Obviously there is no interest in them (vapos)???

I wanted to ask:

healthy,ok, but do vaporizers produce a high that is a match for smoking/bong?? Or is it (much) weaker?

Looking forward to answers, I am already on azarius

Woah now, I am going to have to say my vaporizer has always gotten me the highest out of everything Ive tried. I mean I load my digi vapor buddy at evening and I am still smoking the same shit by the time the sun comes up. Just by mixing it up every now and then and raising the temperature every little bit, you can have a nice time all nite. User results may very I guess with vaporizers, but I do not think there are superior utensils, just a matter of the individual

Not wanting to split hairs but one doesnt smoke a vaporiser . If one can see anything that looks like smoke one is smoking .

How much of what product do you put in you vaporiser , at what temperature do you vaporise at and how many sucks do you get from the one load ?

I think that vaporisers are not popular because people are used to smoking and think that the drug effects from the smoke / poison gassess is being high . Others are used to the nicotine flash from smoking cigaretes with a little cannabis in them .

I love Vaporizers, I've only used them very few times though. I think it's what makes the difference between high, and stoned.

 

[grassisgreener]

Vaporizing was my primary means of THC ingestion for a couple months and yes, the result is slightly different from that smoking a bong, joint ect.

like justinned said, it's more of a "high" than a "stoned" feeling, and i find that vaping is best with a high quality Sativa strain

it's not necessarily weaker, just different. more creative sort of high. head rather than body - you get the idea

I LOOOVE my vaporizer... I have it over a year now and it already payed back itself (a couple of times) since you don't need that much weed...

BUT the high is different then smoking a joint (with tobacco) you're more high less stoned, but imho thats a good thing since you're still able to do things... When I used to smoke a J I did almost nothing that evening but when I vape, i still do stuff!

couldn't live without anymore!!!

Not wanting to split hairs but one doesnt smoke a vaporiser . If one can see anything that looks like smoke one is smoking .

Normally I preheat my vaporiser for + - 7 minutes before I start vaping... then I exhale nothing yet I get stoned...

If I preheat my vaporiser for + - 15 minutes I do breath out smoke, not as harsh as though I'm smoking a J or a bong but there is blue-ish smoke

I've never used one, partly because none of my friends have one and we wouldn't know how it works hahaha. I think I'll do some research and try it out. I didn't knew it gave you a different high though.

 

[GOD]

High Augur , welcome to the forum .

It doesnt give you a diferent high , it gets you high . Normal cannabis smoking is a mixture of being high and being poisoned .

 

[restin]

exactly. It is very profound and I can control the energy in my body, I can lead it to what part if the body it should go. It IS really the difference between high and stoned: you feel detached but not really passive, it is another kind of energy. I agree with GOD that the poison part is the nicotine that makes you passive and weak: same as snuff. It isn't profound at all.

To be honest, I find it similar like smoking pure bongs but much smoother. What makes the difference is that you (at least me) don't see how much THC you now absorbed. I mean, with a J. you see it. I personally measure with time as the high comes for me after ~5 minutes.

What I am still not sure about is why I see something when I vape. I still am not convinced that it is not smoke. Normally, if you blow air through something, no visual effect is seen....:S

Augur: It is really worth of at least trying. My cost 150 Euro and I am already convinced that every cent was worth it.

restin, if you see something that looks like smoke it could be the vapor from the green
this is just my guess i wouldnt know for sure but if you vaporize anything the vapor isnt necessarily invisible, i mean you can see steam which is water vapor...
just my thoughts on it

I've been considering getting a vaporizer myself from the local bong shop and would like some more info before dropping my cash in there pocket when i have a perfectly good bong at home already..

GOD you say that its a sort of different high? what chemicals in weed poison you when you smoke it?

Well, I'm not positive about the details exactly, but any kind of smoke in your lungs is toxic to your system. Your lungs are meant to breath the air, and pretty much any kind of smoke, whether it be from cigarettes, weed, or wood or plant, is toxic to your system. You know how bee keepers blow smoke on the bees to make them slow and tired seeming right? That's why. And as a side note for cigarette smokers who don't know (and no worries, I'm not preaching 'cause I smoke myself), the smoke going into your lungs is what makes you relax, in the same way that it makes bees relax. It isn't the nicotine. In fact, the nicotine's more of a speed than anything, the relaxation part only happens while you're smoking and once the cigarette's gone you come off that and get anxious 'cause of the nicotine, which makes you want another cigarette. Anyway, yeah, like I said, any kind of smoke is toxic to your system, combusted carbon based forms = bad in your lungs.

 

[Crimzen]

well yeah thats why you can die from smoke inhalation
i just thought he meant something else

and yeah nicotine is a stimulant so for sure you're right about that
but the bee thing is a little different because they are completely different organisms from us, they dont even have lungs they absorb gas through the skin, im no expert but i watched a doco about a week or 2 ago about that exact thing lol

 

[restin]

the smoke going into your lungs is what makes you relax, in the same way that it makes bees relax. It isn't the nicotine.

I disagree. Did you ever snuff or snooze? There the relaxation is even stronger than with cigarettes.

 

[LiplessMouth]

I may very well be wrong about the bees then, I wasn't basing it on anything scientific that I read or saw, I was just trying to add two and two together, guess I got three or something. But yeah, I've tried snuff, and sniff snuff, and it wasn't really too relaxing personally. It might be different for different individuals, but I'm telling you, nicotine is a stimulant, not a relaxant.

 

[restin]

really? Well we surely are two different individuals...with me it is that I just lay on my bed or floor during a nicotine flash...although I agree that with snus (norwegian/sweden tobacco) it has stimulating effects...and sleeping is also difficult with nicotine. I am not sure now but I really have relaxing effects with snuff.

I dunno about the bees....I have never seen that and am not informed about the industrial processes in bee culture so I will simply believe you :wink:
