Smoking - Do Filter Tips Filter THC?

[DunkLikesDrugs]

Hi,

My friend told me a while ago, 'its better to use a roach in your joints, filter tips remove some THC'. Is this true? And if so, how much?

Thanks

Swims not sure but his father uses them and he has smoked joints with them in and they still worked fine, didnt seem to take anything away for this swim, but some friends are l;ike, it must take stuff away it must. Swim would also like to know the actual facts of this, but it still gets swim stoned!

It does remove some cannabinoids which get bound up in the filter material with tar etc., but apparently not a great deal, according to the Cannabis Wiki

Dry Pipe:
1/16.2 C/T
~30% of THC in sample

Single Percolation Waterpipe or Bong:
1/16.9 C/T
Small waterpipe ~25%, Bong ~15% of THC in sample

Unfiltered joint:
1/13 Cannabanoid/Tar
~20% THC in sample

Filtered joint:
1/16.9 C/T
<20% of THC in sample

Hotplate Vaporizer:
1/9.75 C/T
~10% of THC in sample

Modern Hot Air Vaporizer:
~9/1 C/T
~60% of THC in sample

As it simply specifies that less than 20% of the THC in the sample entered the blood stream, one assumes it was not a great deal less or they should have put the approximate value as the did with the other methods.
