Hey, so I started using a balloon when smoking. Thus far, I'm really impressed. After I take a large hit and hold it in as long as I can...
somebody correct me if I am wrong with the following statement: Holding it (meth vapor) for longer than necessary (ah, like 3 - 5 seconds? guesstimate) isn't going to increase your high, but only further damage your lungs. I think the vapor is very quickly absorbed by the lung tissue. again, please correct me if I am wrong...
I exhale the rest into the balloon and get another hit in a sec. It's really helped me pace myself. When I've blown a lot into one, I wash it out into a glass and can get high on that too. Which had me wondering, will leaving meth residue in a balloon or in water degrade it quickly, or could I make up some bottles of this water for rainy days?
Water will not degrade the meth.
I always rinse pipes and save the water, however, I couldn't personally swallow said liquid, as I imagine it would taste about as good as a dirty dog's arse. I use the saved water for rectal use - actually, that's the only way I really care to use meth nowadays. Smoother, lasts longer, better BA (I want to get the most of it and I refuse to IV) and FAR less "fiendish/moreish" than smoking.
I must note that after doing a little spring cleaning a month or so ago, I found an old jar I saved of meth bong water that was probably a biohazard - it had some green mossy junk in it, and I swear there was little somethings swimming around in there. Mind you, this jar was WELL over a year old, maybe pushing two, I can't recall. Not only that, I have no idea whether it was the drug itself causing the green spawn in the jar, likely the jar was dirty with something before I put the bong water in it, or the bong was dirty, or there was saliva in there, something, who knows...
Point being that yes - it's just fine to rinse your balloon or what have you and consume the water. I personally would think twice if it sat for around a year or more, that's just me though...
As an alternative, you could rinse the balloon or residue holding device and let that water sit out for (a few days? depending how much water & how much moisture there is in the air) and you'll be left with powder that you can scrape off the plate you left the residue water on...I assume one could attempt to smoke this, I have not tried though. Certainly it would be fine to use nasally or orally in a parachute.
