Implement

[Mihr]

I've heard a lot of conjecture flying around about the best implement through which to smoke the Spice. I'm a little confused to be honest, especially over details like what bedding to use, if any.

My first experience, which was sub-hyperspace, was through a glass pipe piled with balls of tin foil for more heat to vape the DMT. Although it's more likely I didn't inhale the entire dose, is there a better way? I've heard a little of people using Bongs, which I am certainly accustomed to. Any thoughts anyone can give me on the matter appreciated.

Regards,

This is one thing there really should be a sticky about in the smoking section, alas there is not. I don't have much personal experience with different smoking methods, but I'll list a few of them here in what I understand to be the order of goodness:

1. A glass vaporgenie. You titled this post "implement", and my god if there's one thing that I've heard is best for smoking spice it's the glass vaporgenie (or GVG), and hopefully someday I'll be able to give you a personal report on how it works. In the meantime, someone on the Nexus wrote that it's a "key to the universe that never fails", and I've never, NEVER heard a bad word about the GVG. I've heard the regular VG works for spice as well, but it's not the same.

2. The Machine, a contraption which is described in the nexus wiki. Effectively, a do-it-yourself vaporizing pipe in which the spice rests on a bed of copper scrubbing to distribute heat correctly.

3. The herb sandwich, which works with a pipe or bong. Put down a layer of your favorite smoking herb, sprinkle the spice on top, put down another light layer of your favorite smoking herb, and slowly vaporize. Hold the heat away from the spice so that it just melts and vaporizes before toking.

These aren't all of the methods, but they're probably the best. One word of advice: DON'T BURN THE SPICE

I think my mistake was in burning the spice, then. I've been meaning to get a vapouriser in any case, but it may take me time to find cash for such an expensive item. Is a bong preferable to a pipe?

 

[BananaForeskin]

As far as I know, theoretically there's no difference in effectiveness, as the method of vaporizing the spice is the same. However, the bong is always going to be smoother... I've found it's easier to go farther with a bong than with a pipe.

I would highly recommend making an "herb bedding" in an iced bong with your desired dose of spice.

Then you want to make sure that the flame doesnt touch the spice at all and that there is no combustion until most/all of the spice is vaporized/melted...

once you can see/taste/smell that the spice has been melted/vaporized into the herb, you can then proceed to light the entire cone.

(*note: this sometimes needs to be done in more than one breath.)

i find that if it is done properly, this method doesnt require a second or third toke. one hit wonder.

i also believe this method to be HIGHLY effective when done right because the ice/water cools the hit some allowing you to take one large and also very concentrated hit of spice.

hold for 30 seconds or as long as you can, let go and flyyyyyy.

i would also recommend the GVG (glass vapor genie) if you can afford one.

the GVG is probably one of, if not the best tryptamine vaporization device available.


hope this helped some.

happy travels.

Thanks muchly guys. My faithful bong will see me through, I believe. Time to start working on my toking technique. One day I think the GVG will call my name, but perhaps only when I have the funds.

If anything... use less heat, and more sucking! (yeah seriously)

and no smoking foil terrible for you imo.
