Personally, I don’t love anything as much as I love joints. A joint is the most wonderful thing in the world. Pure bliss from beginning to end, everything from breaking down the weed to twisting it and finally getting that first lungful… fuck I love joints. Anyway what about y’all?
Well, I discovered dry herbal vaporizers about a decade ago. Bought my first started making accessories for it… and the rest was history.
These days I have literally countless dry herbal vaporizers in my collection. Aside from edibles, dry vaping is the only way I do it. In order to avoid building up a “tolerance” to the device, I make it a habit to cycle through devices once or twice a year switching to something else (sometimes more powerful cloud chasers, other times very discrete under-powered handheld devices).
I truly enjoy switching vaporizers because it allows me to reset my habits (load sizes, temperatures used, draw rate, etc). Sometimes I can cut back to less than a gram a month (once or twice a day medicating) and other times I can ‘burn’ through a lot more lol.
When it comes to the style of dry vaporizer, sometimes I enjoy direct draw, or I enjoy vaporbonging with a waterpipe. For social gatherings, I pull out my Arizer XQ2 and start filling balloons for friends so everyone gets their own bag of vapor to enjoy at their own pace.
Not to mention dry herb vapes produce ABV at the end of your session, which can be reused in edibles. Dry herb is the best way to get your monies worth.
This is da wae.
Joints are cool when I’m with friends but I can’t imagine smoking daily without my vape. There’s no smell, no dizziness, no foul mouth and I can easily load 0.05g which does get me high enough for a typical evening.
I have two vapes, one of them I can put into a bong and I’m getting ready to buy a third.
Tell me which devices you had and what you’d like different in your next device, plus a budget - I’d be happy to point you in a direction. My position in the industry has allowed me to handle literally dozens of devices for the business, and my friend who also works very high up in the industry has literally every dry herbal vaporizer made in the past 20 years, plus some that were prototypes and never released to the public.
I have a fun unbiased opinion of countless dry herbal devices hahaha
What’s your opinion on the Fury Edge? I’ve only had a few dry herb vapes in my time, and I’ve really been enjoying mine for the past year or so. But I’m not sure how it compares at a similar price point for a portable vape.
I’m in western Europe, where hash or herb is always mixed with tobacco. Yeah yeah I know, boooo. But hey, that’s a cultural thing with several origins.
I wanted to quit that 25 yo habit last year and managed to totally get rid of tobacco thanks to dry herb vaporizers. Convection and conduction, session or on demand, I can now choose different ways for different moods.
One thing’s sure, the taste and the high are waaaaaaay more pleasing.
I was at a wedding last weekend and everybody (most of my smoking buddies) was smoking joints. At one point, I was curious to see how it felt like again. It was atrocious, disgusting, awful. I even tried a pure joint and the taste of combustion is just not for me anymore.
No toke, chocolate chip cookies are where its at. Rather than inhaling the dried sphincters of dead hamsters we travel through round, delicious treats.
I just recently picked up an Arizer XQ2 and it’s amazing, but tried for day to day use. A friend of mine gifted me a KarmaVap (Dynavap M 2020), and it’s been my daily driver next to a revisit of my older and solid Xmax Starry v3. Whichever way I go I get done nice returns as ABV, so my next edible may be gummies.
Ever so often I use a water pipe but it’s iffy as I’m not a fan of “wasting” bud.
For me it’s my 2019M and a 9" water piece.
