Tobacco is by far the most common substance used in conjunction with cannabis. All over the world this practice is common. Some mix their cannabis with cigarette tobacco and roll a joint or put it in a bowl/cone. others roll cannabis in the shell of a cigar and call it a blunt

Do you conbine cannabis with tobacco? Why do you do it? Are you aware it dramatically increases the amount of tars while decreasing THC? It also puts you at risk for nicotine addiction if you are not a cigarette smoker.

Some people think it stretches out their pot longer.. which it does i suppose but they dont end up getting as stoned. I never have a hard time gettign my pure weed joints to burn quickly. I suspect a lot of people do this because it is the custom where they are.

If you are already a tobacco smoker i can see how it would concern you less.. i used to smoke blunts a lot when i smoked tobacco... i acutally quit cigs by switching to blunts for a week or two hehe. but even if you are a cig smoker, you dont inhale your cigs deeply and hold them (i hope) or force it into your lungs like a gravity bong will do. man i think if i took a gbong rip with tobacco and weed i would vomit.. literally it sounds really gross. one time i hit pure tobacco out of a weed pipe and smoked it like weed and man that was disgusting. tobacco hits your lungs weird and makes you wanna cough in ways much worse than pot imo

For those that combine tobacco and cannabis, try cannabis by itself sometime.. i think you'll like it :)

anybody wanting to sound off on spliffs, blunts, spinning, or otherwise mixing tobacco and cannabis feel free to do it in this thread... just keep it civil :)

Combining tobacco actually makes me more stoned than smoking cannabis alone.

If you smoke a bowl, the smoke a cigg you get more stoned.

Also, tobacco gives you that nicotine rush - which some people like. As far as stretching your weed..... I don't know much about that.
 
Whatever you want to do I guess. Smoked a menthol afterwards. Once.
I don't recall it doing anything (It was a menthol so take it for what you will) I'd like to try smoking a joint and then maybe taking a few puffs off a cigar. Anybody done this? Or smoked a cigar and then smoked a joint?

It definitely sounds like it would be a bit hard on the lungs. Not a fan of cutting my weed with tobacco tho. Its a bit "stronger" to smoke. Also, any difference in mixing weed with pure tobacco as opposed to the chemically treated stuff?
 
I got one of my cigarette smoking roomates to hit a bong load of tobacco once. He also hit it like he would weed, and I swear he almost choked to death. He was crying cus he couldn't breath. He got a massive head rush though. Needless to say, I felt kinda bad, but we had a laugh about it later.

I don't mind the occasional tobacco smoke when I'm stoned, but i'd rather smoke a cig or cigar after I smoke the weed then smoke the two together.
 
i'm not a big fan of tobacco in Joints. i like to take deep pulls when i smoke, and tobacco prohibits that. plus i get that weird nicotine rush, which isn't always a desired effect.
 
Only one of my friend spins his joints with tobacco, but then again he's the really cultured smoker. All the rest use pure weed joints but also blunts a lot.

Takin a bong rip of tobacco sounds gross, but we did it once to a brand new $200 bong just to be funny. The kid who had just bought the bong was a crazy character and brought along a bunch of his friends to the head shop, in order to christen the bong immediately after the purchase. We got outside the head shop and sparked up a bowl of tobacco right on the street corner. Yeah, people stared.
 
In Australia, I am weird because I smoke my weed straight.

With bongs, I've found that people who smoke cigarettes like spinning their weed, but when they smoke it without tobacco (spin), they cough their lungs out. For me as a non cigarette smoker, it's the opposite.

The theory over here is that it makes you more wrecked for the amount of weed because it makes the weed burn hotter, but I think that is bullshit because the vaporising temperature of the cannabinoids is lower than the temperature at which the weed burns.

I put tobacco in joints though because it helps it burn better.
 
the one about making the pot burn hotter is a myth.. tobacco burns cooler than cannabis!

and what kind of cannabis do you have that doesnt burn well? sounds like aussies and euros are buying wet weed if it doesnt burn well. :confused:

I`m used to smoking with tobacco
I think it makes it(joints) smoke a lot better, smoother, and like I said, I`m used to it. It also stretches out my supply, and I sometimes smoke pure from a pipe, bong, bucket etc.
And sometimes we smoke a pure joint, but usually we only smoke pipes and blunts pure.

I just like smoking it with tobacco, although pure is good too, I think it`s because I`m from Holland, joints are the normal thing to smoke here, we mix it anywhere from 40-60(more tobacco) to 75-25(more weed).

weed burns much hotter, but it also smokes a lot slower IMO. I don`t know why exactly, but I prefer weed+tobacco
 
Same here - I always smoke the two together.

One time I was mixing up some weed and tobacco to load up a bong and a friend of mine said: "Nah, man, I'm doing this shit pure!"

He coughed so hard and so long he actually turned red in the face and then slowly blue because he couldn't breathe. We were caught by his parents because when they came in he was basicaly unable to speak or do anything but cough violently.

So whenever people tell me taking tobacco mixed bonghits is harsh - I think back to that incident. I've tried it since with the same result pretty much every time - one pur weed hit and it's coughsville, Ohio. :(

it's the custom were they are ofcourse and the quality of your pot. you can bet you american dollar on it that noone around here wants to toke up a pure fatty, they'll drop dead..;) nah, but i'm not kidding, if we roll a pure joint from the weed we buy overhere, we would end up so stoned, that it wouldn't be funny anymore. i get high enough from a tobacco+weed joint and believe me, my tolerance can't go any higher. the economy get's better too, that's right, it stretches out your pot, what actually is the best thing about pot+tobacco joints, you get to keep your weed longer. and, despite what everyone's saying (and is going to say).. i like the taste of a tobacco+weed joint better than a pure joint, i just can't explain it. and from pure joints i have to cough every minute, wich i don't have from our own.. yes, tobacco+weed joints. think i've rambled on about everything, but.. ..i'm sooo stoned from my pot+tobacco joints, haha, oh yeah, it DOES fuck up your lungs more, but who cares, then don't smoke, everybody knows that..
 
GRRRRRR ;)

Actually - I am unusually sensitive because I had three quarters of one lung removed when I was a kid - but that's another story =D

hmm methinks you folks just dont smoke enough if you cant handle a pure weed j :p or just smoke until you're stoned, then put it out for later.

and here's an idea for you folks trying to stretch your weed.. why not just smoke cigaettes? the economy is better.. i mean your weed will last forever ;)

damn son.

but isnt that even more reason to cut out the known carcinogen?
 
yeah morrison, he's got a point there, the less carcinogens going in there, the less damage you'll do, BUT, if you're going to cough so easily from a pure joint, wouldn't it FuX0R Up your lungs even more, i mean, coughing so insane intense hard with only 1 and 1/4 lung can't be that nice, can it?;)
