I only ever used cold water and ice in bongs. :)

Nowadays I only vaporize and not even daily or that frequently.

I've seen pics where people hook up vaporizers to bongs filled with ice and cold water. I've never done this as the vapor doesn't bother me that much but apparently it does for some people.

I don't think the vapor "bothers" people like that, especially if they're pot smokers, I think it's more about pothead ingenuity. I mean, if vapor is already really smooth, then vapor filtered through cold water and ice has to be better, right? At least, that's the logic I assume they're using.
 
warm water sucks, simple as that. Some people like HOT water (steaming) because they say it helps to moisturize the smoke (never tried it though). Personally, cold water always does the job for me. If you are really concerned about all the toxins, use a vaporizer.

There is nothing like takeing fat rips from my bubbler.
 
Either really hot, or really cold. If its really hot, the smoke combines with the steam and creates a very smooth hit :)
 
For effectiveness purposes... what does it matter hot or cold water? Use a vape, thats what they're for. Logic says warmer water will speed the breaking down of THC, but thats unlikely to make much effect with a reasonable water temperature.

My preference is cold water + ice in my bong. A colder hit makes me cough less. I've actually tried it in warm water, but it was, to say it briefly, awful. The smoke had an odd flavor to it, like it had gone stale. The hit wasn't much rougher, but the taste was so off I had to change my water. To each their own though, ya know?
 
i've never thought to put hot water in my bong but if i leave my bong on the window sil or somthin it tastes pretty nasty when i do put cold water in it the hits are much smoother.....the main point of a bong is to cool the smoke making it easyer to smoke and also filter out tars n shit

I'm really surprised to see all the responses here, because when I put warm/almost hot water in my bong, it's WAY smoother and me and my girl both agree we can take much bigger hits (often without noticing the size until you blow it out)
 
...I don't understand how my post got merged into a poll?
Your post got merged into the "Methods of smoking" megathread (which happens to have a poll) because it was about methods of smoking.
