Flower Coughing in mornings?

[someguyontheinternet]

Any of you who smoke things, cannabis or not, likely know about the impact on lung function. Deposition of substances in the airways impairs the function of the cilia that remove foreign substances.

Whenever I start smoking flower or even concentrates semi regularly I start coughing in the mornings. Do any of you have this issue as well?

All of my stuff is from legal dispensaries with strict testing. I'm considering switching to edibles only because it sucks so much, even though I do like smoking sometimes...

100% get tight chest and coughing in mornings.

Ironically, if the situation allows, when I smoke a small amount in the morning, it acts like a "bonchodilator " and clears the chest pretty effectively.

Cigarettes make it worse obviously, but I had to add that I do smoke cigarettes. (wish I could stop, but the "drive" to quit is still ignored.... go figure).

I experience a chesty/slimy couch every morning and couch up a chunk of Flemish with some blackness in it. But after that lekker cough my lungs are good t go and ready to smoke my cannabis

...the impact on lung function.

Not just the lungs, inhalation also affect arteries and smoking with significantly more severity.

Deposition of substances in the airways impairs the function of the cilia that remove foreign substances.

Some work has been done by Enrico Bouchard, inventor of the Sublimator years ago, trying to improve bio-availability by heat-shrinking the microscopic droplets of cannabic vapour so these would also pass into the bloodstream via capilaries, in addition to the alveolar barrier. It's not clear how much of it was marketing but there's been at least one other effort made to rejuvenate this idea and a reference to it got deleted for some foolish reason recently...

I've addressed this problem with a multi-scenario experiment in 2012 trying to decide between causes/solutions as cold/hot & dry/moist. The conclusion motivated my switch to the VaporGenie system at the cost of a years-long customization effort, centered on the fact that clean-burning butane generates its own water vapour besides carbonic gas. It allowed me to abandon the HerbalAire slow/steady ovenizer-based consumption model and never look back.

All of my stuff is from legal dispensaries with strict testing.

The only « strict » way i can think of is when no 3rd-parties are involved, though i'll agree testing for pathogens is no luxury. Too bad the « legal=safe » slogan in only an illusion.

Well, smoking isn't the best option in a forum dedicated to « HR », while edibles are nothing like inhalation i'm afraid. Yet, even inhalation alone sub-divides into many types hardly suited for direct comparisons, so maybe your intuition will prove appropriate to you after all. But then cannabis will never be the same unless you grow your own and find an HR-compatible consumption method...

Let me suggest you to consider this home-made reality-filter of mine as you progress in this serious reflexion:

#1) Neuro-plasticity;​

#2) Contaminants;​

#3) Consumption Method & Ritual;​

#4) Socio-toxic 3rd-party interference​

Right now i'd say all 4 apply in the situation you've described.

By the way, i did personally observe the paradoxal effect mentioned previously. Keep in mind in the victorian age cannabis cigarettes were sold to help with asthma...

when my nose gets congested, which is usually the morning, that's the only time i cough... i noticed smoking weed will actually stop my smokers cough. probably not a good thing.... usually i wait a little bit after coughing, clear out my nose, and then start smoking later on.

my lungs are in pretty good shape from smoking a lot of weed over the 20 years i have. just a couple months of cigarette smoking and my lungs will be total shit. that always goes away though... smoking anything is obviously not good though. people's miles may vary.. i swear drinking the correct amount of water helps heal my lungs from the weed every night i go to bed.

I nearly vomit every morning, but I think it's just a cough reflex.

could be swollowing muccus from the night... happens to me a lot.

Always related it to Tobacco, most my live combined the two. and Smoking pure never caused me couhging.
At inhaling [to much] and direct after.
End maybe when superoverdone. Like 3 hits of Tobacco a day produced me no sorrow with Weed, 9 hits

Could bike 100 km in a day at 50. But stopping Tobacco helped. After the initial Weed oversmoking phase.
Which would produce what you posted, less fast but equal inoveruse of Tobacco.

Vape. Quality Herb 3/ 4 time s a day max.
Not cartridges where you hope it is not harmful, like the producers proclaims.

Both my neighbours, 1 ex, do to/ every morning thin walls. Like they about to die.
Both excessive Tobacco laced Weed tokers, smoking the old Dutch way.

Basickly a form of Chainsmoking, self torture. So much info on harm reduction , vaporizers available.
Hard habit aperrently to break. Althoug Tobacco is as hard to get as Weed atm right now.
