Time to knock the tobacco

I want to be able to run around with my boy and potentially his children one day, I am still a relatively fit 35 year old so there is time, the tobacco has to go.

Cart vapes are a no go for me. I quit juice vaping a while back and do not wish to return, it will be mostly homegrown flower for me from here on out. Hopefully going to start growing my own in the future so I always know I am smoking the natural flower weed once was.

So it looks like my only option is a dry herb vape? Or pipes? I have absolutely no clue on either. I have been eyeing up every vape under the sun and I need some help.

I am at my PC for a large % of my time awake, so a desktop unit is definitely a posibility. The only issue is I wouldn't be able to use it while my kid is awake/at home. The Arizer XQ2 tickles my fancy at a very nice price, why is the Volcano so much more?

In terms of portable vapes I have looked at the Arizer Solo 3, what bonuses am I getting if I went for the Tinymight or Venty? I am a daily cannabis consumer so it will be used frequently and I have a high tolerance if that counts for anything.

Thanks in advance biggas for any advice given

Much love

I would definitely look into getting a S&B Mighty + or Venty. The Venty is fabulous but it’s not as pocket friendly as the mighty. They are both very powerful and are more house friendly if you have children. The dry herb vapes take some getting used to. It really tickled my throat for a good couple of weeks when I first swapped over to dry vapes. I use far far less green with a dry vape, it’s a different more relaxing high I find. I’ve put hash and concentrates in both the mighty and Venty and they are brilliant. Expensive but well worth it. They come with a 3 year warranty and the build quality is excellent

Thank you for the input, I don't really care about it being pocket friendly, I will only use it while in the house/garden. Would you go for the Venty every time on that basis? The one thing putting me off the Venty is everyone seems to speak so highly of glass mouthpieces/long tubes for a smoother inhale?

Thanks again

You can buy various glass adapters for the Venti but you lose the use of the variable inhale wheel which is its USP. It’s a great device but you can also pick up a secondhand Mighty very cheaply.

If you don’t mind it being pocket friendly get the Venty. I just think it’s always nice to have the option to take it out with you to the pub or a gig but I still take the Venty. It will take a while to get used to them but after a while if you try and smoke with or without Tabasco you’ll wonder how you ever did it before! I wouldn’t bother with the accessories for it, it’s as smooth as whatever you put in it. You can taste all the different strains and hash and concentrate lasts for ever in it

Keep It Green 9.8/10

Buy 20 odd of the prefill capsules. Ive not used my Venty without them, really helps with keeping it clean.
I would do several layers, weed then some hash with some weed on top. Keep everything that you smoke to make edibles with

250£ for vape jeezus. Im very surprised. Wish i could trial it tho do believe for this price should be awesome

BaldEagleBakery 9.9/10

If you wanna give up the tobacco its 95% mental. Since I stopped I smoke way less bud then I used too, could put away 10 g a day easy now it’s about 25% of that

joshua476

10gs a day! wow. I very rarely do more than 3.5gs a day but that is still more than I would like. Well played for kicking the poison. Do you just smoke pureys now or you vape?

MightyRux

I don't think 3.5g would last me an afternoon these days, but I'm a dirty tobacco smoker.

BaldEagleBakery 9.9/10

Just smoke pure, you realise that you’re not addicted to smoking weed but the nicotine, it also helps to tell if you’re weed is good or not coz if it’s shit it won’t burn properly

Smokey007

I will say I was heavily addicted to nicotine for 10+ years and only now been a tobacco free for a year, for me I had to swap to weed only and the only way to achieve that for me was weed cart vapes but only certain branded ones and only off reliable sources, it was hell for the first month and craved nicotine still for the first 6-7 months, tho after the first month of using just the weed pen I started falling in love with it slowly purely due to the efficiency and ease that comes with them, I only smoke my joints straight now and love the taste and how smooth it is, I will say it does take some adjustment with getting used to the feel in the throat and how you puff it differently than a spliff with tobacco, dry herb vapes would definitely be the way to go for you then, just try riding it out for the first few months, I definitely feel a huge difference in my chest, taste and appetite

Keep It Green 9.8/10

Best thing quitting the tobacco, hardest too. Failed many times.

Ive pretty much always been a roughly 14 grams per day consumer of high quality buds in mixed tobacco joints for context.

How i completed my life long tobacco partnership........

Small pure joints to hand, small so you can blaze it quick. Loads of em rolled and ready to go. I brought a Venty and a Puffco peak(cheaper 1) with a spare glass for the just in case scenario.
Disposable vapes for driving and public spaces.
Rso already in small capsules so no messing about, 30 minutes before bed.

About 6 years now

Plan ahead and good luck

joshua476

Yeah mate I am really good at quitting tobacco, I have done it loads of times.

I love the idea of loads of small skins rolled up, definitely going to buy a box of raw black smalls.

I have heard RSO is great for lights out. My neighbour was given like 5/6 months to live, started taking RSO and lasted 3/4 years I believe.

Well played on kicking the governments drug out of your life and thank you for the advice

Much love

Keep It Green 9.8/10

Pre rolled cones are superb. Raw blacks if you can. King size cones for evening. Don't go down the route of buying a Raw 6 Shooter rolling contraption or the double one they have.
It's more consistent doing each one as the roach end requires special care.

Decent Rso should sedate an angry Elephant

MightyRux

Get a Mighty+ for home or you'll regret going cheaper. It's portable, but it's not something you could smoke with in a pub beer garden as it's hefty and suspicious.

I managed to stop using bacci by smoking pures only. Takes a week or 2 to start not missing tobacco anymore. First week is the hardest and vaping might not quench your thirst enough, have a couple pure joints rolled up ready for emergencies :)

joshua476

I think I might be leaning this way, I have a balcony that I currently smoke on and quite often a spliff will last me 3/4 sessions out there. I can have a purey sitting out there for as long as I want and just keep going back to it.

I do fucking love the idea of chilling in the evening watching youtube/gaming while having a puff on a dry herb vape though. My balcony is right next to my pc so it is a tough call, maybe both is the option.

BaldEagleBakery 9.9/10

You should try edibles mate, can get more stoned and don’t have to worry about going outside to smoke

Rikform

Absolutely, edibles are the way to go IMO they last longer and are and keep the lungs clear.

BaldEagleBakery 9.9/10

I’ve always said, my pack of 200mg gummies for a score will get you way more higher then if you spent 70£ with a 3.5 of cali, plus you don’t smell, can eat in public without anyone knowing, only annoying this is waiting for them to kick in

Rikform

What i have learned over the years is that the wait is well worth it. In the past my crave for the instant high has been a self indulgent waste of time. I would much rather plan ahead for a much better healthy longer lasting time.
Thanks for the info re your gummies.

joshua476

I think I love flower too much. Breaking the bud, grinding it, smelling it every step of the way. Even rolling it into the rizla, it is like a ritual. I’ve had hash that blows my head off more than any weed and it still doesn’t feel right to me like opening my mason of stinky sticky bud.

I actually think I’ll drop you a dm in a bit as I think you grow yourself? Or were attempting too before your brother had other ideas

BaldEagleBakery 9.9/10

Oh you don’t have to explain to me bro, I fully get it. I love it, the making of the roach, I backstrap mine as well so I’ve become very fussy, and yeh we small batch growers, just did a really nice Baccio Gelato, she ain’t the prettiest but she’s got gas smokes clean and gives an oil ring so ticks all the boxes. I do everything organically which unfortunately some plants don’t seem to like as much as others

joshua476

Aha a fellow backstrapper. I like a good double barrel roach it sits lovely on the lips. Back rolling one of those well takes some skill if I say so myself. Back in the day we used to stick 6/7+ roaches inside one massive roach and then stick as many rizlas together needed to make it work. These things made blunts look like a roll up. Good old times.

Organically grown bud is music to my ears so will msg you shortly.

BaldEagleBakery 9.9/10

Oh ye it’s all about doubling up on the roach, the raw perforated tips are the bollocks

Cannabis Cannibals 9.8/10

Yeah I couldn't go without smoking while watching tv/youtube etc I'd just open the balcony door for and make sure the smoke goes out xD I've smoked a lot like that before, if I crack open a window a tiny bit usually the top is where the air dragged out so I hold the joint up there to have most of the smoke dragged out the window and obviously blow it out that way too. I hate having to hide for smoking but it is what it is..

joshua476

Ahhh mate I have tried everything, being quite high up doesn't help with the wind it just sends everything I blow straight back into the room. I have a window in the other corner, I have attempted to set up a fan to intake the air from the window and direct it towards the door, still does not work xD haha I have done the cheeky window crack which does work nicely but I just feel like a gremlin tiptoeing up to the top of my window. The only positive is I am the top floor so don't get many complaints from being on the balcony. Wireless headphones and turning my monitor towards the balcony is my best option right now.

Newchill1

If your looking for a volcano hybrid on a deal let me know.

I needed to swap for something a bit more stealth for my arrangement so have got a limelight frolic.

Cannabis Cannibals 9.8/10

Stoners always find a way to get stoned :)
Worst case you go out for a few puffs and then back. Uncomfortable but does the job

Apexskunk2

About 2 years off the baccy now.

Personally I grabbed the mighty as a “sipper” as Polly put it 🤣 which is nice like smoking a joint in that you take mini hits for a good few minutes.

Then I got a ruby twist ball vape and a chugga chug glass piece. This fucks you up, tastes INCREDIBLE and barely uses anything compared to 2g+ pure joints I blaze 🤣

Good luck mate. The kids are what made me do it too 🤜❤️🦨

joshua476

I have seen this ruby twist but it all looks a bit confusing, I am dropping you a message because I like the sound of a heavy hit and saving flower :)

BobDobbs

All the other recommendations are good. I’d add.

Tinymight 2
Limelight Frolic.

Both have heat on demand and are great for out and about.

Not cheap but great pocket options.

Dynavap / Induction heater is my daily driver though.

For giving up tobacco. Vaping worked for me first time, after trying over 20 times. 🙂

I do smoke the odd neat one if I’m out in Amsterdam. Just seems rude not to when you are in a coffeeshop.

joshua476

Vaping worked for me until vaping became more of a problem than smoking ever did. Waking up 2/3 times every night going for a piss just to have a puff on the vape as well. Waking up in the morning and the first thing I looked for was my vape.

I have a very addictive personality and not the greatest willpower. Vaping became too easy and too discreet. Finding the time to roll and enjoy a joint helps limit my consumption, I also have more energy with my kid now I am not sneaking off to the bathroom every half hour for a puff on the vape.

When I first came across vapes/weed vapes I thought I had hit the jackpot for consuming my cannabis while quitting tobacco, but it quickly became a problem. A problem I only have myself to blame for but at least my self awareness is keeping me from going back to them.

This isn't me preaching that vapes are bad, they are just bad for me.

BobDobbs

Totally fair enough re the nic vaping. It’s not as bad for you as smoking, but equally as addictive.

A mate of mine quit using Snus, and just tapered off it. He swore by that, but there is no substitute for just quitting nicotine altogether.

Yes it's a lame title but this video does a terrific job of explaining mental awareness and how to apply it.

Al Tokeville

thanks, very helpful :)

PISTACH 9.6/10

What a video. Coherence is key

Psychonauts 9.9/10

Great video! We believe that Micro-Dosing helps with this awareness, the thinking, feeling and e-motion is under a spotlight. We have felt that Micro-Dosing gives you the time and mental clarity to become more conscious. And after time you start to become more in tune with that heart-brain coherence even when you are not Micro-Dosing.

@samCHED thanks for sharing ;-)

id settle for every other day

r2s2

why doesnt he talk about how to have coherence consistently or how to avoid this? :( or did my high ass just not listen properly.

I like another man's explanation who's name I can't remember now,

"the egg came first but the thing that birthed it wasn't a chicken".

It explains genetic mutations and evolution perfectly.

MightyRux

I've said this many times. The mutation occurs, the egg is produced, so whatever birthed it wasn't a chicken. Ergo, the egg came first.

syjefroi181

The first amniote eggs, which are eggs with a protective shell allowing them to be laid on land, are thought to have appeared around 312 million years ago.

Chickens evolved about 9000 years ago.

Not even a close race, the egg won.

yam1977

Every thing crawled out of the sea even the ancestors of the chicken, Barney the dinosaur. I have no answer.

brando

actually Barney came straight from hell

HIGHNUDE

The chicken rolls over, grabbing a breath she half pulls the cover over her slim but shapely feathery body leaving one clawed foot and some thigh exposed to balance the heat whilst the egg reaches to the bedside cabinet. Placing a smoke in its improbable mouth he lights it, exhaling a long steady stream of smoke followed with a couple of almost perfectly circular rings of smoke he exclaims "well that solves that age old question"
