Marijuana is easiest to obtain at parties or through other friends and the price can be as high as $60 for an 'eighth' (one eighth of an ounce) or much lower depending on the quality of the weed you are getting and the reliability of the source. Better quality pot can be called 'Hydro', 'Chronic', 'dank', 'headies' or 'KB'. Mid-grade weed is known as 'middies' or 'green bud'. Low grade grass is often called 'schwag', 'dirt weed', 'bammer' or 'stress'. "Quality" is not only about strength (though this is a part of the equation). Every strain of marijuana plant has a different balance of psychoactive chemicals - "better" generally means a more pleasant high, in addition to being more potent. If you score some really good bud, you probably won't need more than two or three hits (inhalations) to get to where you want to go. The good stuff smells very distinctive - more like fine herbs for cooking than like the dodgy street drug your parents warned you about. You may notice very fine colored tendrils - purple, orange, or white - among the greenery. Marijuana is used primarily in one of two ways: eating or smoking. Smoking is preferred, as it gets you high faster with less weed, but it has nasty chemicals to inhale. There is also a device called a vaporizer that heats the drug that can then be inhaled as a mist. Vaporizors work by heating the plant to a temperature high enough for the THC to leave the plant, but not high enough for the plant material to burn. This way, you are not inhaling the carcinogens involved with burning plant matter. Using a vaporizer gives a different high than smoking it normally. The drawbacks of vaporizers are that they are more expensive than a pipe, and they take time to heat up, during which time people might get impatient and just light up a bowl. Eating takes more weed and you get less high, but it lasts longer (this may be good or bad depending on your purposes) and is probably healthier. Cook marijuana into whatever you are making by heating it with something that contains fat (butter, for example) and stirring; then strain out any leftover marijuana. Use the butter for whatever you'd like. To smoke marijuana, one needs a pipe, hitter, bong, or anything else one can use to smoke it (apples and carrots work good, too.). Simply light, inhale, hold in the lungs for as long as you can stand, exhale, repeat, enjoy. Beginners often exhale too fast, or keep the smoke in the mouth without actually inhaling it. Depending on the quality of what you are smoking, as little as 1-2 hits can get you stoned as hell, while with schwag it might require an entire joint. The most common side effects of getting stoned are: dry mouth (also known as cottonmouth), unusually large appetite (the munchies), red or bloodshot eyes, a heightened appreciation of music and the world around you, and a distorted sense of time (15 minutes can feel like hours). It is a pleasant experience overall, however paranoia is not uncommon, especially amongst new smokers. "Paranoia" is a loose term used to describe any number of uniquely unpleasant sensations felt by smokers of all experience levels at some point. Marijuana puts you into a uniquely sensitive psychological state that you simply can't get any other way. The advantages are well known (aesthetic pleasures take on new significance, interpersonal bonding is facilitated, and so forth), but under the wrong conditions, it can work against you. Paranoia can be as vague as "I feel kind of strange", or as specific as "that guy across the street is sending me a special message that only I can understand", but it usually tends towards the former. Smoking with people you know and feel safe with is the best way to minimize unpleasant paranoia attacks. For some, it helps to stay in a familiar environment with dim lighting and comforting music. As a last resort, if things get really out of control and you feel like you've gotten too high, go to sleep. Health risks are much less than other illegal drugs. Marijuana, contrary to popular belief does not destroy your lungs. Lung problems are fairly uncommon amongst even heavy lifetime smokers (Chong). Marijuana also contains THC. THC is a "bronchial dilator" unlike nicotine, which makes your lungs bunch up, THC acts as a cough drop and in fact opens them up. Heavy and/or chronic smokers will experience mental impairment (the dreaded short-term memory loss), but no long term effects. Driving while stoned is a bad idea, though it tends to make drivers much more cautious, it also slows down reaction time, so it's probably better not too; riding a bike is fun, but also a poor idea. Pot stays inactive in your system much longer than drugs like alcohol; however, there are no withdrawal effects as there is no physical addiction to the plant. There is no such thing as a "marijuana hangover" - instead, you will wake the next day feeling well rested and refreshed. Often after a long day of getting high you can end up "burnt out" or tired. Marijuana Smoking Guide By: Reefer Man and the Chamelion Warning:Smoking pot is illegal in the united states. Marijuana is chemically not addictive, but CAN be psychologically addicting. Do not smoke pot when you are working with dangerous equiptment. When smoked, pot lasts about 4-5 hours. However, it is detectable in the blood stream for 14-30 days. Marijuana is about 5 times as harsh as cigarette tobacco on your lungs. On the other hand, not many people I know smoke a pack of pot everyday. Enjoy the T-file!! I recently realized that there aren't any GOOD files out here on smoking Ganja, so I decided to write this. Enjoy. Joints: I hope you don't need instructions on how to roll a joint. I personally don't use them very often, unless I'm in a very casual place and have a lot of shake on me. They are very wasteful, but there's nothing like smoking a joint while listening to Bob Marley. If your not a skilled roller, you can pick up automatic rollers at your local tobacco shop. You can even use dollar bills as joint paper. Bowls: Probably the best way to smoke. There are many, many different ways to make them. If you aren't to creative then just buy a pipe. Bowls are great because they are easy to carry and conceal. The only tip I have to give you is to make sure you have a metal screen in it or you'll waste a lot of shake. Here are a few interesting improvised bowls I have seen lately: Take a 12 ounce aluminum can, drink the contents and rinse out. Lay it on its side and take a 1-3 cm hardback book and press it in the center so you have a indentation about half way down. Use a pin to poke a lot of small holes into the indentation. Put the weed on top of the holes, light it and suck through the hole where the tab was. Recently I was fooling around with sticks and trying to make bowls out of them. I found that if you use a stick 1 1/2 - 2 cm in diameter it works best. Cut it off at your desired length (the shorter it is the easier it is to drill and conceal (mine is 7 cm long)). Use a 1/2 cm or smaller) drill bit to drill down the center. Leave one end closed. Use about a 1 cm drill bit to drill a hole from the top down until it reaches the other hole. Shove a screen down there, paint it, carve it, stain it... do whatever you like to it. Water Pipes (or bongs): A water pipe is a complex bowl that cools down and filters the smoke, allowing you to keep it in your lungs longer. Diagram: ![]() As you can see it is not that complex. You need some sort of jar (any type of material is ok) with an air-tight seal. Drill two holes into the top and insert two tubes (also of any material, but the more heat resistant, the better) of different lengths. Attach a bowl to the top of the longer tube. Any bowl will do, just make sure the opening is on the bottom and it has a fine screen. Fill the bottle with water, so the longer tube is under water and the shorter one isn't. Fill the bowl with some fine weed, light and suck from the shorter tube. Due to pressure differences the smoke is pulled through the water (you'll hear the bubbling) and cooled. You can usually get two hits where you could normally get one because the chamber fills with smoke. You can improvise a lot of the bong and still have it work. Be creative. Gravity bongs: With one of these contraptions you can get an extreme amount of concentrated smoke in your lungs at once. Diagram: ![]() Start with a 3 liter bottle of your favorite drink. Drink it. Get a 2 liter bottle of another drink. Drink it. Cut the top off of the 3 liter using an exacto knife, right where it starts to slant up. Throw out the top. Cut off the bottom of the 2 liter right above the black thing on the bottom. Remove the cap and drill a small hole in it. Now, scrape out the plastic inside the cap. Place your bowl over the opening, and tape it down to make a seal. Fill the 3 liter with cool water to the top, leave about an inch free so you don't spill water. Before you put on the cap, place the 2 liter bottle in the 3 liter, letting it slide slowly down. Put on the cap (with attached bowl), place the screen in the bowl, and fill with pot. You don't need that much, overdoing it just wastes the stuff. Place your lighter over the bowl, and light it, while slowly lifting up the 2 liter bottle. This creates a vacuum inside the 2 liter bowl, which draws the flame into the bowl, and the smoke into the bottle. Go slowly, and remove your lighter. Keep pulling up, and the vacuum will keep the pot burning. Once the entire bottle is filled up (being carefull not to go to far), carefully unscrew the cap. Place your hand over the mouth of the bottle, to stop smoke from comming out. Breathe out almost all your air, and then place your mouth over the bottle. Slowly push the 2 liter bottle down, forcing all the smoke into your lungs. Make sure you don't go down to far and get water in your lungs, it's the worst. If you have decent pot, you should get a major high pretty quickly, you will only need about 2 hits. Warning : It's not possible to O.D. on pot, but if you are inexperianced, this much pot will bring you to a very high peak, to the point where you loose many of your senses, and find it hard to speak or understand anyone. It has the possibility of being a bad experiance. On the other hand, it can be a truly great experiance. Eating Weed: I'm not to sure about this one (never tried it), though I've learned a lot about it. Take a good amount and put it in some water to let it soak for a couple of minutes. Microwave the mush for about 5 minutes (or until it gets dry again). This will break down the cell wall to aid in digestion. It will probably take an hour or two to take effect. There are many other ways of eating pot, on crackers, brownies, etc. The main difference is that you will not peak as high, but will be high for much longer, around 8 hrs. How to beat the drug testing: 1. Drink lots of fluids. 2. Urinate and perspire often. 3. If suprised, empty the nearest water cooler. If going to a test: 1. Have a friend fill a Bard Dispoz-a-Bag Drainage Bad, and tape it to your abdomen. Run the tube down to your fly. The piss must be fresh. 2. For women, a urine filled condom or vanilla extract bottle inserted into the vagina can work wonders. 3. Distract the distributor, or bribe him. 4. If your really fucked, add toilet water to your sample, or a few draino crystals to lower your pH. After you've been tested: 1. List over the counter drugs medications which are cross-reactive, such as Advil, Nuprin, Motrin, or Mydol. Remember: Using drugs at work is wrong when you are operating heavy equiptment, or are responsable for people's lives. PS2- Caught by your parents? Don't admit it! There's no way they can prove your st0ned, just say you feel sick!. L8r, Reefer Man Chamelion Hello's to King Quark, Westhaus, Student First Step, Electric Monk!Legalize it! |
