Bongs and pipes are equipment commonly used to smoke cannabis, as an alternative to traditional joint smoking. A lot of bong and pipe users claim that their method is much superior to the traditional method, mainly because fewer chemicals are burned, it's cleaner, and it's much easier. To be completely honest, these claims are true, as long as the bong or pipe being used is made from porcelain or glass and not plastic.
This post will explore bongs and pipes, telling you how you can add them to your lifestyle.
Type of Pipe (Or Bong)
When you are first interested in getting into smoking pipes and bongs, you need to ideally find the type of smoking device that's right for you. There are lots of different types of pipes and bongs, made from a variety of materials, in a broad range of different sizes. One thing that you need to ensure is that whatever you choose, it's either made from porcelain or glass. Plastic pipes and bongs can release chemicals when they are used, called microplastics. Consuming these can be very bad for your health. Glass pipes and bongs don't release any chemicals when used. A popular type of pipe is called a bubbler. If you're interested in a kind of fusion between pipes and bongs, then it's worth looking for bubblers for sale, which you can do online. Make sure that whatever you buy, comes from a reliable vendor, with a commitment to excellence, and high-quality products.
Pocket Size
If you are going to incorporate bong and pipe usage into your broader lifestyle, then you need to make sure that the product that you buy is pocket-size. The smaller that the product you buy is, the more discreetly that you will be able to use it. You won't be able to carry around a large bong with you in your pocket. If you try to, it won't work very well. If you do carry a rucksack around, however, then you can put your bong inside of it.
Subtle Smoking
The problem with carrying a bong around in your rucksack is that when it's time for you to smoke, you won't be able to do so subtly, which can be a problem. If you are at college or work, then you will want a pipe. The reason that a pipe's better in a setting like this is that you can easily deploy it, smoke it, and put it away before anybody has realized what's going on. You shouldn't smoke indoors in any of the aforementioned settings. If you do, you can get into trouble.
Taking Hits
When you are taking hits, try to find somewhere discreet to do so, unless you are at home. While smoking in public is allowed in most U.S. states now, that doesn't mean that it's right for you to do so. There could be people that don't smoke or children around. If you are going to smoke using your bong or pipe, find a quiet corner that's out of the way. The good thing about pipes and bongs is that they're fast and easy to use, so you don't have to hang around holding a joint in your hand for twenty minutes.
Get-togethers
Bongs are great for get-togethers, especially with very close friends. The reason for this is that they can get you very high. If your friends haven't ever smoked using a bong before, then they may choke while smoking it, which can be very funny. With that said, you should forewarn your friends about the potential for them to choke if they ask to use your bong. Choking isn't dangerous, but it can be very uncomfortable and give them a sore throat. It's also worth noting that they could get very high and have a bad trip, so don't give them too much if they're amateurs.
Other Products
If bongs and pipes interest you, then why not explore other Cannabis products too? If you want alternative ways to consume the plant, then there are lots of other ones. One of the most popular ways to consume Cannabis is in edible form. Edibles are food products that have had Cannabis infused with them during the cooking process. Edibles can get you very high, making them a great option if you enjoy getting completely out of them. The downside to edibles is that the high lasts a lot longer than an ordinary Cannabis high does.
If you like smoking Cannabis, then it's time you tried out pipes and bongs. Pipes and bongs are fun, easy to use, and deliver a powerful high. They are also a lot less wasteful than joints since you don't lose any smoke when using them.
