DO You Smoke Resin?

[tom phoolery]

I've found the best way to smoke resin is on a bed of other weed, much like hash. This squeezes all the THC out of the resin and minimizes tar, which just gets turned into ash.

just a note of caution: i tried doing an isopropyl extraction in an empty salsa jar, and the whole end result tasted like shitty shitty salsa. i ended up throwing it away cause it tasted so bad, even though it got me pretty high.

ew I fucking hate resin. But i AM a pothead so if there is absolutely NOTHING else, and I am really really really desperate i will do it. Its not the actual smoking of it that bothers me, its the smell and the fact that it makes everything around it smell for days

 

[ChemicalSmiles]

Only on rare ocaisions .

No, I scrape my bowl in with the leftovers for the dog, haha just kidding. Fuck yah I smoke resin I usually scrape my bowl and put it in a film container until I run out and them smoke it, some times I save a little herb to mix with it. The only think that sucks is it clogs up my pipe so quick, I’m cleaning it again a few days latter. Resin gets me stoned! %)

Hell yes. My buddies call me the Resin King. Being a heavy daily smoker, I have a few pipes, that fill up with that black gold. Resin for me soothes the stresses in life that only appear on days when you have no ganja (funny how that works). After only about six months of regular harvesting and storage of resin I've usually accumulated about 4 to 6 grams of the sticky-icky resin. Over the years ive made some realizations about resin, and here they are:

1) Resin is disgustingly filthy. It's a black tar-like substance that stains your hands after you've been digging in your hammer pipe for a half an hour to get a ball. I find that any isopropyl alcohol based hand sanitizer (Purell) will take those stains right off
2) Resin also sticks to your skin, this can make packing your bowl full of it pretty hard. Rub your fingers in the crease on the side of your nose, creating a layer of your natural oils, that repels the resin from sticking.
3) A little bit of bud or some stems work perfect as a 'screen' of sorts underneath your resin ball, to prevent melting down and clogging your piece.
4) Storage of resin is tricky too, it sticks to most inadimate objects as well, I found a section of a plastic grocery bag will repel resin, I wrap it up and make a corner knot like a bag of blow

Grow your own and you may never smoke resin again. Growing is much easier than I thought. See Mills Pride Club at International Cannagraphic. I can't remember the last time I smoked resin. It is a sin people have to smoke resin. Do tobacco users clean their pipes and smoke tobacco resin? No. The reason you smoke resin is because of the drug laws. There is no reason weed should cost any more than tobacco. Harm reduction. Legalize ganja and eliminate the degrading practice of smoking resin.

I tried smoking this stuff once - just lighting up the tar that stuck to the inside of my glasspipe from below - and after one hit, my lungs just HURT, like they were being stabbed with a dull blade. I took a second hit and it hurt even more. Then I stopped. Don't you guys experience this?

 

[brainslookfunny]

I find scraping a pipe quite therapeutic. Slowly working the tools around and getting every little bit of resin out, perfecting the scraping technique, then enjoying the fruits of labor. I'd scrape pipes for fun if someone asked me to.

I do agree that sometimes smoking resin gives a nasty headache high, but more often than not it gets me stoned as bud.

 

[ppurplehhayes]

I only smoke it if it's offered. I don't scrape my bowls myself cause it's not worth it to smoke poop.

 

[StagnantReaction]

Resin isn't harsh the least to me. Shrug.

Never proud to smoke it, though.

i only smoke resin if im extremely desperate. i cannot stand the taste most of the time, and it makes me cough my fucking lungs out.

 

[mittleider]

Resin is alright if you have nothin else available. It seems like it's worse for your body than cannibus, and it tastes funky too

 

[zigzag| dta]

thats my biggest beef with resin, is its RESIN

its the part of the smoke that didnt get into your lungs, idk it reminds me of the tar that gets in the filter of cigarettes

 

[swilow]

Damn this threAD, im pretty sure i voted i would never smoke resin- just stoked me bong and got a shitload, now smoking. With a low(ish) tolerance this stuff is okay, just makes me feel desperate. oh well, better then raping my plants anymore.

 

[goldomega9]

only if im really desperate

 

[DrumnBassBandit]

sorry...

...but fuck some resin

 

[sbenixbl]

i cant say that i havent smoked resin, but when you have nothing else that can sometimes be your last resort. i think its probably been 6 monthes since i last smoked resin.

 

[chronictoke]

ya ill smoke resin if im hurting for a buzz lol
what I like to do the best is spread it onto a paper and roll a joint. I find it covers up the bad taste.
Or wait until it builds up, then u get like hash and it gets you pretty high. I try to
only save it for desperate times though.

 

[zigzag| dta]

I`ll use resin if need be, I'd prefer to eat it though - just because of the contaminants. You can clean it up by breaking it up in warm water then straining it out.

could someone elaborate on this for me please
