Salutations,
Until recently this was the only place where consumption method & associated ritual could fit:
Preparations and Methods of Administration - Other
So i must conclude you're actually quite privileged to initiate this present one. Bravo!
Good idea, cannabis users registered here certainly needed it for many years!!
Hummm... There are two contextual elements i can gather from these hints: #1) you're smokers; #2) your paraphernalia market is slovenian. Please correct those assumptions if wrong.
As an ex-smoker (& former hashich consumer myself) i can only regret not taking better advantage from « hot knives » after being initiated. But it was decades ago and all i cared about was the buzz, while the rest had very little importance except some quest to get « more with less ».
Below we can see my venerable « Tokeu », made of a hollow tube terminated by a flexible membrane on the right side which caused hashich smoke to stay inside until i started to inhale:
This proved being a major vilification vector but that felt convenient at the time, because before i had a habit of burning holes in my clothing and this saved a lot of T-shirts once adopted, not to mention i could relax horizontally and never mind for an ashtray... The trick with that was to inhale at intervals close enough to prevent extinction, at 1st, then i discovered i could benefit from such inconvenient by fractioning my "joint" consumption so to do more with less exactly.
Silly me, nobody cared to make me understand that i was actually sacrificing nearly half the noble molecules to fire simply to vaporize the other half. Moreover, i was even ruining the taste with secondary/tertiary combustion by-products, but i didn't care back then! So it stayed with me until the summer of 2007, when i decided to quit smoking definitely to never look back again.
A few years passed thinking i'd never enjoy cannabis again but Providence permitted that i became aware of vaporism after investigating the e-Cig market with an altruist intention to offer one of those new electronic cigarettes as gift to another smoker. This was a revelation, an epiphany! My vaporist initiation occurred the next day after St-Valentin of 2011 using an HerbalAire, which is a canadian device. That thing worked best with dry flowers and just the smell from golden goo rising inside its vertical teflon tube gave me psycho-somatic effects... I was blissed!! Yet a couple more years were necessary for me to gather the basics of vaporism, after that one could say i got seriously involved, for example with this experiment trying to decide which of cold/warm and dry/moist "vapour" i might like better:
FogBong! (2024-Sep-17)
Lets just say i got blissed again, so much this convinced me i had to adapt the VaporGenie pipe because of its self-generated moisturization in a portable format (from clean-burning butane)... As a result another series of experiments took place which i tried to keep on-line since the spring of 2013, including here:
Semi-DiY Pulse-Heating transformation (based on VaporGenie Classic/Bronze Sherlock) [2019-May-19]
Yes, more than one. Here's what i was going to purchase before i changed my mind in favour of the HerbalAire, but this is still about vaporism:
The glass adapter no longer exists, as for the Heat Gun i recall one major motive to get that specific brand/model used to be about airflow speed which could be set to 3.6 cfm... But my local reseller sent an e-mail raising his pricetag so much i abandoned that plan definitely, the year was 2010.
Today my perspective differs radically as it begins with the origin of our common challenge instead of its finality (the buzz):
On my way to emancipation i also learned to appreciate dame Nature's most precious gift, which is a type of beauty revealed under the microscope that works similarily to an encrypted key. Tampering with it as indu$trial$ do typically results in visible
VILIFICATION, so i came to adopt this simple slogan as my favourite vaporist rule: to «
follow the shortest path of lesser transformation »... Which means hashich is no longer a desirable option to me, especially now that our so-called "legal" state MONOPOLY the SQdC (a "filiale" of the SAQ serving our alcohol market, another monopoly...) restricted access to concentrates actually made of something else to a level of 70 %! In other words the new "dealer" is worse and i can't pretend our dry flowers are much better, but at least the lack of respect and excess of greed are easier to evaluate at 100 X magnification than hashich quality. YMMV!
Good day, have fun!!
