i've never bought or tried hash but now some has been made available to me and i'm wondering how much hash (roughly) someone like me should get. i smoke about 1 gram of bud a day. i get a q of bud once a week. Would 2-3g hash be good for a few days at least? i don't know how much you get out of hash vs bud...obviously you can use smaller pieces than with bud...what else?

Do you combine hash and bud or do you smoke hash alone? I've smoked kif on its own and it didn't work as well as when i combined it with bud. It was too hard to burn and seems like i wasted a bit. :\
 
I smoke a gram of headies a day, when solid sheesh is around ill smoke like .3 a day. If I could buy it over bud daily I would.

EDIT: Saw the other ?, I smoke hash alone usually sometimes I put it on buds.
 
my friend cut up little pieces of hash and mixed it in evenly with bud in the bowl, i like the straw and cup method. just put a little piece of hash on a thumbtack or something like that, light it so it starts smoking by itself and cover it with a glass.
lift up the cup an inhale with a straw when the smoke fills the container.

and yeah...a gram could last you three days, which makes sense because here 1 gram hash is the same price as an eighth
 
Hash should last you about 3x as long as weed, but it usually isn't 3x as expensive if you know where to get it, which makes it a very economical smoke for those who have it available. Generally speaking, hash tends to be half-again as much as bud. I won't pay over $30 a gram for it, personally, which means I get high for half what I would spend on weed. That said, smoking hash alone isn't very fun. I have gone for extended periods with only hash, but it is always better to mix the two highs. As for hash smoking methods, there are are a few good options:

1. Top a bowl: Place broken up pieces or a flat "pancake" on top of a bowl of cannabis. The best way to do this is to flatten a piece that can completely cover the top of the bowl as thin as you can. When you hit it, keep the flame about and inch away from the hash and inhale slowly. The hash should bubble, but not light. Get the best results my trying to melt all the hash without torching it. Once it is completely melted into the bud it can be hit nomally. I've seen people pre-melt it into the bud with a lighter before hitting it, but I think you get the best tasting hits while the hash is still bubbling.

2. Mix it in: This can be done buy breaking up pieces to mix in with a bowl or joint, or by rolling a "worm" and "burying the worm" in a joint. The worm in the joint is very, very nice.

3. Hash pipe: The common metal pipes with screw on tops are probably the most convenient hash device around. With a screen in it, wads of hash can be packed and the cap screwed on. Just hit it thought the hole in the top. I've carried one of these with hash in it for a whole weekend before, taking hits whenever I got the chance. Small glass pipes are also good, as long as the hole in the bottom of the bowl is small enough. Screens are also a good option for these, as hash likes to melt and flow into the chamber on glass pipes, but may not be necessary depending on the pipe and the hash. In general, your favorite glass piece is probably best for the varieties of hash that don't melt as much.

4. Hot knives: I have a pair of glass hot knives, but have done it many times with normal butter knives. With the glass ones, you need to heat both knives or you risk breaking them from the shock of placing hot glass against cold glass. With butter knives you only need to heat the tip of one knife. This is best done on a gas stove, but I've done it with a bic lighter before. Stick a bead of hash to the end of the cold knife, then press the tip of the hot knife against it. It will melt and smoke will rise of the tips of the knives as you squeeze them together. Inhale the vapor just above the tips of the knives. Careful not to burn your lips!
 
mmmmm this thread reminds me of some great keef hash bud bowl combos. i would vote mix your shit ive had so much better experiences with just throwing hash on top of the bowl. i dont use the melting method above(although it does sound fabulous) i usually just break up the pieces layer the top and light it up. the hash burns for awhile too so be careful if you stick your finger in the bowl to check if its gone because ive burnt the shit outa my finger a couple times doing that shit
 
all right my guy says he can make some but it's twenty-something (i won't say the price) per gram and i can only afford 2 grams. Could that last me a week of smoking a couple times a day? much appreciated.
 
with no other bud? depends really on the method of smoking. i would say maybe if you use the toothpick glass technique idk if you smoke out of a bowl though really could go either way
 
cool. i got the hash in tinfoil. the guy said it's still drying. it needs like 3 more hours. how should i store it? i thought about just putting it in a glass jar or something till tomorrow and then trying to smoke some.
 
I aint had a good combo in donkeys years, mainly because we're flooded with hash here in the uk and most of it is questionable nowadays. I miss 'red leb' big style.
 
do i need to let it cure for 2 weeks? i don't know if it's supposed to be this green... i'm sure it's not top quality. my friend just started making it.

EDIT: there were some crumbs on the edges. i tried the hot knifing, but no good. so i put the tiniest bit in a metal pipe, heated from the bottom..instant head rush. :) also, it melted quite fast..i'm not sure what that means besides that it's hash.

all right i'm gonna try to collect my thoughts for a minute and come back. =D

The photo aint the best quality man, but that looks like compressed weed, rather than hash. Whats all this chat about hash melting? There are only a few types of hash that melt and they tend to be the most expensive ones, I mean ridiculously expensive. Bubble hash is the best smoke I've had though.
 
i hold the flame about a quarter inch from the hash and it melts quite fast..or maybe it's just burning..but it appears to melt. the smoke is pretty harsh. i saw part of the process and i can confirm it isn't just compressed bud. it's fairly potent as well, although as far as hash goes i have no idea. not the best for sure.
 
can we hear what you saw of the process. cause that is some strange looking hash, from what i can see.
 
Most good hash will fluff up when heated and will catch fire when held over a naked flame. Hash that melts is called bubble, its seems crazy but you would need about 4oz to make about 7-14gm. The actual process in making it is about as crazy as the amounts involved.

Me also - love RED LEB , aint seen it for years :!
 
I'll explain whilst clocking up another post en route to bluelighter status ;). They use stupid amounts of high grade green to gain small amounts of ultra high grade hash. They start with a bucket of water crammed with chipped ice, 15 custom filter bags inside each other with the finest being at the bottom. The weed gets dumped in and thoroughly mixed with a cake mixer. The aim is to collect the mature resin glands which are not soluble in water, in the bottom 2 or 3 bags. The end result can range from a silverish powder/paste or an amber goo that will solidify eventualy. These types are the only ones I know of that melt, pure resin glands. I was only able to get it on a trip to the dam.
 
That hash does look kind of sketch i'm interested in how it was made.. Not to stray to price discussion but it seems like you guys pay a LOT for hash! If you meet the right person bubble hash can be just as cheap as bud
 
If that "right person" was high off their own supply... then maybe, but no one in their right mind would sell bubble gm for gm the same price as weed. As I said mate, the quantity of raw material needed far exceeds the amount gianed. Straight up economics.
