Opinions - how much is to much?

[manonfire]

a friend of mine has a girlfriend that says he smokes to much.
he smokes about 5 grams a day. HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH????????????

too much as in unhealthy? 5g is a lot of smoke to put through your lungs each day, every day. That itself is unhealthy in it's own sense.

there are people who are prescribed over 5g a day with an illness but that doesn't have anything to do with him.

--------
I am unaware at the ill effects of smoking that much other than bad for your lungs and making you lazy.

how's the quality of said bud? is that the reason for such a large amount?

It's all down to how he handles it. With a 5g a day tolerance, all that smoking probably doesn't effect him as much as it would the average person. It does seem somewhat wasteful though considering cannabis enjoyment hits a peek after enough is smoked. 5g a day is a lot. It's only something SWIM could manage if he was retired and growing his own.

She probably defines "too much" based on the effect on your friend, not based on the amount. Maybe your friend's girlfriend is able to elaborate on that if asked with genuine interest?

5 grams? That's nuts! What are they smoking, hemp or ditchweed?

At his most tolerant ever, Swim would smoke about 1/2 a day. He could also not get effects after smoking once or twice, other than a wasteful mild buzz.

Swim's friend with no tolerance Smokes no more than 1 gram and day, and she gets blazed off it every time, where Swim does not get blazed anymore.

Swim's also taking about smoke just good regs too, not high grade or even mids.

IMO, too much is when one keeps on smoking after they have reached a peak. Largely useless for anything but getting a bigger tolerance.

Tolerance is built up individually. SWIM's friend smokes 1g per joint and you won't notice any effect on him after a single joint. If SWIM, who also smokes almost daily, takes a puff of his friends joints, he can go to bed immediately....
