DO You Smoke Resin?

[chucktownbrown]

i don't scrape my pipe.
i let it collect, and then take rez hits from it, only when i have no weed.
if it begins to get clogged, i'll make sure i can hit it.
as for the person that said they boil their piece for 15 minutes... i call bullshit

 

[zigzag| dta]

I wonder if using the isopropanol soak method and letting it evaporate, then scraping up and balling up the remains would be smokable... In that case, I'd be happy to give away my trash to the "less fortunate" lol

yes it is possible.

 

[zigzag| dta]

though IMHO not advisable.


still gross

get a nice sticky black lump of resin, almost as potent as good hash. It usually has very indica effects though regardless of the weed it came from. In fact its probably indistinguishable from hand rubbed charas hash.

I scrape it every once in awhile so that I'm smoking herb and not the resin inside. I like the taste better without all the resin buildup.
Don't really smoke the res to get high ever anymore like I used to when I was younger.

hahaha oddly enough i run into this thread as i am packing up a bowl of resin now...i broke my trusty "brown and white spoon" (RIP) just a couple days ago after smoking out of it daily/semi daily for 2 years..never ever cleaned it. i couldnt BELIEVE how much resin was in it! i packed a good bit of it into a bong earlier and got pretty rocked for a while, i'm doin it again right now to help go to sleep. of course, desperate times call for desperate measures, as someone stated!

EDIT: ah forgot to mention, smoking resin out of a bong really doesn't seem to be as bad as smoking it straight out of a pipe. i seem to get a lot less of that nasty butane yucky taste and HUGE hits. marijuana....the gift that keeps on giving ;-)

You apparently haven't had any of the delicious variations of hash produced by some of my friends in NorCal. hehe

I clean my pipe with rubbing alcohol compulsively. I like that clean taste.

I notice you take offense if someone thinks you're stuck up for throwing it out. That should make it easy for you to understand why we take offense when someone thinks we're "desperate and sad" for wanting to save it. See what I mean jellybean?

Nah, I don't come anywhere near close to taking offense. If I were offended that easily, I don't know how I'd be able to operate in society. lol. So no, I don't really see what you mean. I couldn't care less if someone thinks I'm stuck up or anything else.. I just hate getting a lecture for "wasting perfectly good weed", when I toss out the charred remnants of a joint with like 100mg of tar and ash in it.

I just think its gross/sad. I mean, if you ENJOY smoking that stuff.. well, thats your thing. I just have a hard time seeing how that can't be far, far, far more unhealthy than using cannabis that hasn't been presmoked.

 

[brainslookfunny]

all i meant is that you dont think it's true when people say you're stuck up, i didnt mean like seriously offended

and all im saying is i dont think its true when someone says my simple act of smoking the end of a joint or resin is sad and desperate

yeh its lower quality especially the resin but whatever different opinions

Yep. I use methylated spirits instead of iso, when I'm out of weed and have no prospect of more for a while. Round up all the bong stems, cones, pipes and other bits and pieces that are lying around, give them a damn good soak, then evaporate the meths on the stove with a fan over it (Welcome to the disclaimer, that's right, the disclaimer! This 'Merican apple-pie...etc: Don't do this, you'll blow yourself up).
So yeah, send your trash this way!

Proudly pathetic and sad-

Haha! Awesome thread.

I love smoking pot, but i rarely buy it since i have so little self-control. This means my pipe is always clean inside.

Nope, i'm definately not above scraping my pipe for resin. It's good to see i'm not alone.

 

[Doctor-G]

^^Bong resin can get nasty. Resin from a normal pipe is much more palatable.

oh, for sure, to each his own. i've never gotten in anyone's face about smoking the stuff, except for friends, but thats always in good humor.

 

[Srdopeman]

resin is nasty and really harsh on your lungs. if i cant find bud for more then 3 or 4 days i might consider taking a few rips. but usually i always i have pot so its fine. rez is more like trickin yourself to thinkn there is actually any THC in it lol.

 

[Srdopeman]

Oh look at you Mr. High Roller. I got a $300 glass piece. SOME of us are dirt poor, can't afford a dime bag.

OK, I'm not dissing you, but I haven't smoked in like a week, and I'm starting to lose it. I need a job, but it's hard to GET ONE when you have a socially debilitating mental condition. I would literally beat someone down and take their job if I could, not because I'm selfish, but because I am ready to snap. This sucks like a supermassive black hole.

damn dude, you shouldnt be that worked up over some weed...

 

[okeet]

Its all about cleaning your glass pieces with 91 or 99% ISO and keeping the remaining liquid in a glass dish under a fan to reduce into a tar, that can then be rolled into a nice little ball and kept for future use.
Also mixes well with 'stem hash' (soaking ground stems in ISO) into a somewhat quality product(for what it is).

THC is THC

 

[acid_staind]

just got done boiling my pipe.

it sucks having no weed. but this still gets me pretty ripped though.

 

[ugly]

Stem hash? That sounds great. I always have a baggie of stems hanging around. I'm going to do a search for that right now. Thanks.
