I smoke weed alot out of a bong but have been getting frustrated with how much I have to clean it. I also notice that I use a lot of my supply and was wondering how much weed the Volcano saves you? TIA!
Not the Volcano, but I’ve had multiple vaporizers: Magic Flight, Arizer Extreme Q, Crafty+
I never got the same high with them and end up using similar amounts chasing the high. For me a one hitter ended up more efficient (never owned a bong). Interestingly, dabs worked for me which seems odd as it’s very similar
The reason for this is because combustion releases a toxic cocktail of carcinogenics and carbon monoxide. Many people tend to associate those affects with those from the herb itself.
The reality is that desktop vaporizers can cook very efficiently when they are preheated and loaded properly.
The problem is that one will never fully appreciate the affects from dry vaporizing unless they fully detox from combustion by not smoking (vaporizing exclusively) for a few weeks to month. I made the switch to dry flower vaporizing a decade ago and I still smoke socially with friends, but I hate it - the smell, the taste, the feeling, etc.
Dabs are concentrated and extract faster than most dry flower vaporizers which is why they can often work, however they can also kill one’s tolerances when used in excess. I prefer dry flower vapes to avoid killing my tolerances (I also switch up my daily driver two or three times a year to avoid building up a tolerance to the same device over time).
This is why I dug out my Crafty+
After dabbing I also find joints have lost their charm. Just waiting out after a wisdom tooth extraction!
Heck yeah! I’ve been spoiled by dry vaping to the point where I can’t even handle the taste of smoking anymore. I always get pissed when I accidentally combust with my Vapcap or other butane powered device.
I love my Crafty+ It provides exceptionally smooth rips without any mods (between the Crafty and Mighty, I actually chose the Crafty because it’s more pocket-friendly and has a smaller cooling unit allowing me to still enjoy some of the heat from the vapor). However I am usually a flavor chasing snob, especially when trying out a new strain so my crafty rarely gets used these days. However thanks to my position in the industry, I have many devices to choose from so I’m always cycling through device.
Careful with that tooth extraction! Be sure to let things heal fully before using any vaporizers, or you could risk a “dry socket” which is something extremely unpleasant from what I understand. For now, edibles only! haha.
