Title: What's worst for ur Health and most Economic method: Joint vs Bong vs Vaporizer
Post by: anon69 on September 07, 2013, 05:35 pm
I've recently been researching a bit all over the web since this is an awesome debate to discuss while high independently of the people I'm with since it generates a lot of arguments and opinions, and since i was high while researching i remembered of my favorite pot smoking community right here on the dark corner of the webz Silkroad to start this debate once again.

IMHO the most economic and healthy method of inhaling is through a vaporizer since the vaporizer uses less weed to provide the same high as bong's or joints since it burns the weed at the right temperature and no smoke is left for the air "to smoke", on the healthy side i gotta point at a study (http://www.ukcia.org/research/pipes.php) to prove my views vaporizer is still the most healthy since the cannabinoid/tar ratio is 25% higher than the unfiltered joint, with the joint having  1 part cannabinoids to 13 parts tar.

On this side the vap is way better but as a bong smoker i can't leave the taste and clean toke i get from a bong behind since it's the way it gives me most pleasure but that's not what is being discussed, so in your opinion:

What's worst for ur Health and most Economic method: Joint vs Bong vs Vaporizer?



Much love

I suppose a vaporizer is the most efficient method but it can be a bitch to clean. It also produces a more 'high' effect than smoking with tobacco. But then again joints are easier on the god and somehow also more social if you ask me.

It all depends on your goals....

I'd say if you're trying to be economical, go get yourself a one-hitter. It'll really strech your weed out and make it last. On the other hand, if you're concerned about health issues, a vaporizer is the way to go. However, I find that the high with a vaporizer just doesnt pack the same punch as burning regular weed, because you're not getting all the cannabinoids. Vaporizing concentrates is a good solution to this problem. Gets you blasted and is good for your lungs.

Bongs are pretty healthy too, but they do tend to burn thru your weed pretty fast. But they sure do get you loaded tho! ;D And I gotta agree, joints (and blunts) are the most social. Pass it around!

The true winner is BHO. So potent you need to inhale very little vapor, and a dab a day goes a long way.

It's the most stealth, too, especially with those new dab pen vaporizers like the Atmos W. I'll never go back.

With vaporized weed, however, you can use the spent fuel to bake pot brownies. Lots of posts in here about unique ways people re-use their vaporized weed, so as far as economics go, you may get more THC-per-dollar if you go this route.

In order, from healthiest to least healthy:
Vaporization, water-filtered combustion (bong), and then un-filtered combustion (joint).

Most economic is arguably vaporization, but I'd like to think concentrates are the most economic depending on the price you get them.

hmm i must look into bho then.


Eversince i dropped the filthy tobacco out of the cannabis combo joints are very rare.
Been stuck with bongs and mini-hookahs:).

But definitely feel like vaping is the next step.
Been hesitating for the reasons Rastaman mentioned ,not all canabinoids get absorbed but if bho solves that prob..i will definitly give vaping a go.

+1 to rasta and Josh!

I'd vote for joint but because its the most practical solution rather than any of the other options.

You can easily fashion a joint out of weed, some tobacco and rolling paper, using part if the rolling paper box as a stopper.

A bong or vaporizer may be more effective for the frequent user, but for those that smoke a bit of cannabis once in a while the joint is probably just the simplest solution to a problem ;)
