Is there any difference if one switches from common methods of consuming cannabis to evaporizer?

I have been using cannabis in a joint and in water bong mostly and I would like to hear from guys who switched to evaporizer. Did the effects became stronger or different between using the same weed lets say by water bong comparing to evaporizer?

Thanks
 
there are significant differences in terms of both high and health effects. i recommend using the forum search engine to find a thread where they're discussed more in-depth, as this is a very common topic around here.
 
Short and simple answer: a vaporizer is both more healthy for your body, as well as more efficient with your marijuana. You will get higher, or equally high, with smaller amounts of weed in a vaporizer than you would with a bong.


Also, vaporizer smoke isn't as pervasive as the smoke a bong produces.
 
Making Taryth's post ^ a little less simple:

Now go back to chemistry. Remember that phase diagram your teacher showed you with the three lines, triple point, critical point, liquid, gas, and solid phases? Three lines? Coming back? Now weed starts at the extreme solid left, but, after a vaporizer, it ends up being at the extreme upper right. When you hit the weed now, the kinetics of the THC are comparably faster, allowing the molecules to enter your body easier and react easier (not faster if you remember back to kinetics in chemistry, the rate law is fixed for a phase changed and all coefficients are the same). So, yes, the effects will be stronger from a vaporizer.
 
i like vaping but it is a slightly different high/feeling

vaporizers leave behind a good deal of other cannabinoids such as CBD n CBN, so the high is different but not lesser by any means

only way to truly explain/describe it is to try one.

i do know some who do not enjoy the vape but most people i meet n introduce to the vape absolutely love it, although with hose style vapes it does take a little gettin used to in order to get the right hit

man i made some butter with a half O of vaped bud and that shit was a gnarly body stone. makes sense
 
^^yes i make tincture with my vaped remains n yes it is almost all body high. very nice to use then smoke/vape some weed on top of it, you gets hella stoned

instead of green dragon tincture with regular nugs
this is golden dragon tincture from vaped remains
 
It would be nice if someone would try to describe the "differentness" of the high between weed smoked in water bong to that of being vaporized.

How do you make a tincture with your vaped herb?

Can you reuse vaped herb in the vaporizer?

Or can you cook with it but it just gives you a total body buzz but you don't trip like you normally would if you eat herb?

same as you would with regular nugs.

not really, cuz all the good stuff has been vaped. The only things the tincture are collecting are minimal amounts of THC n then the other cannabinoids that are sometimes left behind whilst vaping

you could cook with it, yes the effects are much milder but if you have enough vape remains it is worth trying. the tincture that is, i dunno about vaped remain edibles, maybe though

Hehe, thats why I created this thread. But so far noone described exactly the difference of smoking the same weed in water bong to using evaporizer. Also it would be nice if you could elaborate more on what is "good one" or even suggest some names.

One word Volcano ftw! Everyone always get a little scared off by the price but trust me its worth it. I picked up a vapir for $200 and it worked ok, but it did get me hooked on vaping. The volcano blows the vapir out of the water, I was half way there with the cost of the vapir and it isnt half as good as the volcano. I love getting people stoned off the volcano its funny how red there eyes get. When I started to use the volcano it was like getting stoned for the first time again. For me the high seems clearer and i feel it for almost 4hrs. I have had serious sessions with four or more people and used no more than a fat blunts worth. In the end it pays for itself. Its makes me sad when people roll up huge blunts of strains like Death Star or my new favorite Gods Gift. And the taste is wonderful. I have been vaping for 4 years now and would take my volcano over a roor any day. I have seen hardcore blunt bong smokers go nuts over it. They are always in awe over how a little pinch gets you wrecked when they have been wasting there time with white owls or dual chambered, ice filter, diffusers blah blah blah. They all cower to my bag of pot vapor!

I have heard nothing but good things about the volcano vaporizer. The brand has been around since the 70's and is practically a legend.
 
heat control on the volcano is excellent as well. some cheaper whip vapes are more difficult to set a proper temperature, and you just end up croasting the bud to a dark brown nastiness instead of gently toasting to golden brown.

also vaporizers are wonderful for shitty weed that is improperly cured (or as i have heard, even fresh-off-the-plant), making it so you don't need to smoke 2g just to get a buzz.

the BEST thing about a vape? you get to taste all the complex aromas that get destroyed in your friend's stupid $400 roor ;)
 
Sounds nice. However the only definition is "high is clearer".

One time I tried to experiment, I took a two pieces of thick glass and heated it over fire. Then placed peasize of weed between the glasses and inhaled the "gaseous smoke".
The aroma was nice, high a little bit different, I think generally what I have done is "kniffing". However it was difficult to control the temperature of the glass and handle it. If someone would play with it and advice some practical steps of making the best use of this technique?
The reason is, most of the time I'm backpacking and it's difficult (heavy and space issues) to carry the vaporizer.
Kniffing using pieces of glass seems like an alluring alternative. I was managing to extract with it aroma gas out of weed, just as what I guess vaporizers do, yet without the baloon, but rather direct inhaling of the resulting weedgas.
