does anyone just smoke green?

onetwothreefour said:
due to a variety of reasons (from the whole "i don't smoke cigarettes, so smoking tobacco from a bong is the same thing" guilt-trip, to its addictive nature to whatever else), my flatmate and i only smoke the green. from what i've noticed, *none* of our friends (who've all been doing it for longer) do this - they all mix it with tobacco.

i did a search and couldn't find any threads on the specific issue, but i'm just interested in finding out if others (regularly?) do this, what they find the differences to be, and stuff like that. i find the weed (w/o tobacco) goes down a lot easier, and even though you don't get the headrush unique to tobacco, i tend to enjoy the effects more.

Personally, I've smoked everyday for 20 years and I've always mixed green with a hint of tobacco, (20% tobacco / 80% green) nothing to do with trying to stretch it out, it makes me cough BIGTIME if I attempt to smoke it straight. I've also found indicia is a little too sticky to burn well. I'm in Melbourne and I've never really come across anyone who does smoke it straight, Queensland was another story probably 50 /50

If its smoke it straight or don't smoke I always manage to deal with the cough :)

Each to their own

Pretty old thread here, yeah I am from SA and always smoke straight green, but there are definately heaps of people that mix around here. I would say about half the people i know or meet smoke a mix.

I think it has a lot to do with if you smoke ciggs, i wonder how many people love tobacco in their bongs, but are not smokers.

I hate tobacco, but if someone is offering me a cone and it is mixed, its not like im going to turn it down.

Any idea what the go is with the vapourisers ?

I've read about them in a few of the forums in the USA, but never seen one here in Australia.
 
I'm originally from bendigo but have been living in melbourne for the last year and everyone i know smokes their choof mixed. I generally mix 2 ciggies per gram (smoke cones).
Interestingly I've met people who are on exchange from America and they were shocked that Australians smoke their weed mixed (they even smoke it straight in joints) but now they are big fans of a mix
 
Green all the way

Its green all the way for me and a couple of my friends.

I just hate the taste tobacco leaves in your mouth and i feel its more of a dirty stoned with a heavy body and lungs feeling so i stay away from spin

A lot of people say "ohh i cant rip a cone with out tobacco" but i just think it is whatever you are used to....

Like i can rip a green cone but not a spun one.
cause im used to green.

So i think its whatever your used to.=D
 
Since my original post in this thread my thought has changed on the spun cone. I used to be nothing but a mixed up man but now I smoke nothing but green, unless of course in a joint.

This probably has a lot to do with me quitting smoking and laying off the green in a big way so I can't handle the nicotine rush anymore ;)
 
For me now its just the green, used to spin. I think for most ppl, spin was just a way to make it last longer. Dosnt mean i wont mix.... like BT said, some mixing is fun! :)


Mr S
 
I was raised a spinner - It was my understanding back in the day that adding baccy makes it easier to smoke and not so harsh. However I find if it's great pot then green is better. Never 50/50 tho more like 70/30 at the most.
 
It simply comes down to choice!
And simply I dont have that choice, sure I'd smoke green if I had an endless supply but I dont so I have to spin to spread my smoko out =D
 
I guess you smoke what you learnt to smoke. I generally smoke 50/50. I have doner greener but I found that I catch colds and get sore throats much easier, same as my housemate.

Apart from that, I think that if I started to smoke green only, I'd probably end up smoking more, just out of habit.
 
I hate spin, always have, so I avoid it at all costs. If a spliff goes round (and i luv my weed), and I know that it has spin in it, then i wont touch it. So its pure green for me.

A few of my friends tho, who do some tobacco (when out for a big night out), prefer to have spin in their joints. The reason being they say that they can control their intake of the drug better, cos some the weed going round now is so good that it "spazzes" them out if they have too much.

I've found this to be a very informative thread, and has infact cleared up some issues I have with weed.

Just a quick stupid question though, is it possible to smoke green as a joint, without too much trouble?
 
as long as the weed is dry enough and fine'ly chopped you should have no troubles.
 
Love Plain Ol' Green, on her own, but if some mixed shit be goin' around i'm sure to take a hit.
Unfortunately most of my mates that smoke do so spun so I either have my own or try to seperate the shit before I pack a cone.
Don't like the backy-wack particularly, the hit it gives me is a little too intense [especially if I've been drinking], much prefering to slowly sink into stoned 'reality'.
:)
PEACE
 
Not many other drug addictions can top the beauty of the marijuana/tobacco bong hit for me. I tried green for a week or two when quitting tobacco, but I quickly came back to the this perfect synergy of drugs us Aussies are known for.
 
Mmm, straight green all the way. I almost never smoke tobacco (only the odd occassion when I'm drunk and someone lights up right next to me) so I always smoke weed without spin. Gotta say I've never had any trouble burning my weed in a joint, bong, or pipe... *shrugs* :\
 
Note: It can take many years of smoking to really appreciate this addiction. If your a green smoker and you have one of these you'll probably think it tastes like shit, and vice versa.
 
People who say it's to make it last longer, or it burns better, or whatever are just a little confused. Truth is, most people are taught that this is how you smoke and grow to love the hit and won't wan't anything less, less being just green, especially if the tobacco addiction digs in further.
 
I used to smoke menthol cigs, and when i would chop up people would say, i dont want minty cones... people couldnt fathom that the mint is in the filter, not the tabacco! They would get soo confused! Green 4 me, or mixed with Damiana or Catnip if i;m low, but i can smoke mixed to cater for other people, coz many are either one or the other, and no between
