So I have a question, are vaporizers actually healthy instead of smoking marijuana?

So from what I understand with vaporizers, is that its just water steam with Pure THC whereas with smoking, its basically burning a plant and inhaling it meaning youre also inhaling bits and pieces of the stem, plant, etc.

So since using a vaporizer is only steam, its basically like using a hot water kettle with a plant inside.

First of all, you don't inhale piece of stem unless you're an absolute idiot. Pieces of the pot itself is rare if you know what you're doing, and you typically don't inhale it, as it only goes as far as your mouth.

And yes, a vaporizer is a lot easier on your lungs since it's wel vapor, and not smoke.

Vaporizers are a lot healthier for you than inhaling smoke would be, yes. However you're not supposed to smoke any other part of the plant other than the bud. (Unless you're making hash in which case the plant wouldn't be in its original state anyways)

If you're looking to minimize the health risks associated with the smoke made from burning cannabis- try edibles. Cookies, brownies, tea, etc. There is no smoke involved, the thc is absorbed via digestion. Plus a brownie tastes a hell of a lot better than most weed.

Drugs are bad.

Vaporizers are healthier for your lungs, but still, smoking it isn't even that bad for you.

Edibles are another option but it is a completely different drug. When you eat an edible, the THC gets converted into a metabolite so that it can be absorbed into your digestive system instead of your lungs. It's called 11-hydroxy-THC metabolite. It has many different effects than THC and is more potent. So eating it feels somewhat different than smoking.

A vape is healthier than smoking but there are healthier methods

Just smoke it, it's not bad for your health to just smoke it. Simply smoother to use a vap though.

I've smoked pot for 2 years (up until just before Christmas just gone) and I don't even know what the fuck a vaporiser is!? Dude, just burn and hole in a bottle, stick your spliff in the hole and smoke that shit. Stop being a pussy.

Peace \\m//

Hahaha love this response, in all seriousness though, never use cans or bottles.

Bongs, blunts, vaps, papers, etc are fine. Only use stuff that you are meant to smoke from.

Never smoke from plastic or aluminum.

I smoke from cans all the time. I don't have a bowl so if I'm out of papers I just drink a Peace Tea, dent the can, poke a few holes and a choke with my earring, and there you go. Inhale deeply:yes:

I wouldn't suggest cans, aluminum does have particles that get into your lungs, a bong or piece is wise, plus you get resin.

Please get back on topic or this thread will be locked. Sharing techniques on how to smoke is not appropriate here.

Yep, but you can end up inhaling the metal causing a lot of potential issues.

I feel like that wastes so much of the bud, but I have done it in desperate times lol

Only if the water is changed frequently otherwise its just as bad and normal smoking isnt really that bad unless its a joint, but it still beats tobacco by far.

I agree that marijuana is healthier to smoke than tobacco
prolonged studies have shown that THC is better for your lungs than inhaling a cigarette. cigarettes have more harsher chemicals whereas marijuana is naturally grown
I am not trying to promote it or encourage anybody to do it but I am just saying studies have shown it to be healthier. I can't smoke the stuff anyways because I am allergic to THC and the High feeling gets way out of hand and makes me very sick and off the edge
I haven't really hard much about vapor smoke though. atleast not vapor marijuana
is it the same as those vapor cigarettes or Ecigs they sell in stores?

no just that when you smoke it you only get the thc and the rest is trapped in the water. If its making you feel bad dont smoke so much that was my issue although you said you're allergic.
