um i have heard from a friend that not handling weed with your bare hands makes the smoke more potent because your fingers get sticky cause the thc oil clings to your hands, whats the best way to perserve

You canstart by not listening to your friend.

Though some resin will get stuck to your fingers, it wont be enough to make any difference in how high youll get. Its probably on the same lines as taking a handful of sand from a beach.

If you really wanna save weed, just make sure youve got a bong at home, and a pipe on hand. These methopdes waste a lot less weed then a joint, seeing as how you out then right after you take your hit, but with a joint you let it burn, so a lot of smoke simply floats away.

i think pipes are the best thing if you live with your parents, they are much easier to hide than a bong and they are easy to take with you places. And also that is true about joints, alot of weed can be wasted because of it burning and the smoke going without anyone takin a hit. Thats why if you get hydro which is alot of money for a little ammount of high quality its wise to use a bong or a pipe.

This is also my 100th post

I kinda beg to differ. Pipes and bongs stink (bongs especially). I've been busted so many times because I had a bong sittin' around somewhere just lettin' off fumes. I would wrap these bitches in like thee garbage bags and load it up with cologne, still, that herbal smell remain. I think it's better to use blunts or joints when livin' at your parents. You can roll it up before hand and keep it around and it won't make much of a smell (as long as you haven't sparked it up). When you're done with it, you don't have anything left to try to hide. If ya got a roach left, you can just put it under the bumper of a car that doesn't move or some place you can remember in your yard. That way it doesn't stink up the place and you can come back to it later. If you lose it, so what, it was just a roach.
I must say though, usin' a pipe or a bong with them tangerine greens is a better idea. I, personally, don't mind rollin' up. The amount of smoke that's wasted is insignificant to me. But when ya smokin' a bowl, not only are you "wasting" less, but ya also get too add to a nice colection of the stickiest resin. After about a years use, scrape that shit up and have fun...

it should be prefectly fine you won't lose the potency of the herb.

Ok here is how you handle really good weed. Now it is kind of complicated so you may want some friends or a friend. Now here is wutcha do. you take the bag and you put just about enough for a bowl or a joint on a table or something. now here is where it gets difficult. you
1. either get a PAPER and roll that shit up and smoke it or
2. You put it in a bowl for a bong or pipe. now if it is a bong or hookah make sure u put some sort of water in it. and this is the hardest part... you light it up and ...SMOKE IT
see... complicated
Peace Out

Damn......that was way to complicated for me dooby!!!!! hehe jk.

Yea holding/touching it with your hands shouldn't affect it's potency too greatly.

I was thinking though, there is the most THC present in the crystals of the weed, so wouldn't handling or shaking it around too much cause you too lose some of these crystals (although I'm not sure how much difference it makes).

Why exactly would a bong/pipe smell? Mien dont smell at all unless you stick your face to the bowl. Granted if you let the resin build up itll smell, but cleaning weekly takes no more then a few minutes and some hot water.

After a week of smoking there is no way my glass piece would come clean with hot water!

A bond should be much easier to clean though.

Damn I wish I had some of that glass cleaning shit.

both acetone and alcohol work as "glass cleaning shit"

i beg to differ... in a piece you burn the weed right away... while in a joint you are burning the tip and then vaporizing the rest via the burning cherry... which will waste less of the thc because you aren't toasting it as you would in a piece. and very little smoke is wasted between hits... well, as long as you have more than one person on the thing...
