Effects - Not getting high?

[Jumpsteady]

SWIM has smoked pot many of times, any thing from low grade swag to high grade hydro, getting both straight from growers. and SWIM has never gotten high off weed, he's inhaling right, he can smoke a cig, but doesn't get high on weed

SWIM is also not on any other meds.

[day-tripper]

My ferret thinks you must be doing something wrong, are you inhaling properly?

[Jumpsteady]

Your ferret is incorrect, sir.

[coelho]

Do swiy cough when smoking weed? If he does not, then probably he is not inhaling it properly. Cannabis smoke is much harsher than cigarrete's, and so having coughing fits is an almost necessary requisite for prove a newbie actually inhaled it properly.

[4TwentyRM]

swiy must inhale it as if he were taking the biggest drag off a cigarette in his life. Following, he must hold it in (and if it was the biggest hit he's ever taken, it will be slightly painful but he must still hold it in at least 5-10 sec) after that he will cough abundantly, if it was indeed a large hit. Repeat a few more times, and he Will Indeed be under the influences of t.h.c. in the next 3-15 tops.

Don;t talk nonesence, myself and lots of people got high first time without coughing, let alone coughing fits!

[4TwentyRM]

Not really nonsense on his part, maybe the coughing fit part yes, but not the coughing itself part. I think everyone, the very first time they took a true inhalation of marijuana, I mean a good hit, substantial if you will. They would have, pretty much without a doubt, Coughed.

Coughing would provide proof that they are inhaling properly, and SWIM does cough, and they do hold it in for 5 or so seconds.

[chaosx]

when swim first tried mj, he was not a smoker, swim would say he didn't really feel any effects for the first dozen or more attempts. swim would say he'd smoked alot of it & inhaled, but never got much in the way of effects. but slowly it started to grow on him.

swim would suggest trying to take some orally. if someone has tried smoking out of a bong many times and got nothing, then maybe it's not your thing, no matter what the reason.

[Space Numpty]

Take a neat bong/pipe hit. If SWIY aint stoned at the end of that then SWIY either has shit gear or is a medical marvel.(just because its "hydro" dont make it any good, there are many many people selling shit under that banner)

SWIM's pet donkey used to claim the same until SWIM rolled him one of SWIM's joints with SWIM's hydro. SWIM's donkey spent the next hour eating everything he could find in the house and then threw a massive whitey and projectile vomited the lot back up. SWIM thought it was very very funny. Strangely so did his donkey.

I was saying you should cough...

4TwentyRM added 0 Minutes and 43 Seconds later...

ok, SWIM doesnt really fel anything that these guys are saying, personally, Swim doesnt get too stoned from joints, so he can see where you are coming from.

Bongs are the weapon of choice from swim, and as far as swim can desypher, a great deal of the initial blast from a well packed bong is that you get a big head rush, due to the intake of something that isnt oxygen, hence a lack of o2 to the brain. Basically, you are taking it right, but you are sipping a beer, and what you need to do is take swigs of whiskey.

SWIM's advice would be to uping the amount, and upping the dosage, SWIM would be looking at a minimum dosage of a gram, in a session. Try this and report back.

[4TwentyRM]

By no means is it necessary to smoke an entire gram to feel the effects. take four-to six decently sized rips that feel slightly painful and make you cough after you force yourself to hold that shit in for at least 4 seconds, preferably out of a bong. and almost guranteed buddy, if you are a human that doesn't shun the possibility and belief, you WILL indeed feel The Handy Compound enveloping your senses every so eloquently. Just don't have any doubts, do it like that, and have clean pure thoughts, and you will be good bud. Good luck Sailor.

[Holyweed]

Do SWIY at least feel some light effects after smoking it? If not, maybe SWIY is insensitive or has a very low THC sensitiveness. SWIM has never saw or heard about anyone whos completely insensitive to THC, but its a fact that some people get stoned much harder than others.

[Greenport]

Ya know, perhaps it is because you are holding the lighter to the pot too much. When lighting cannabis you want to let the plant itself light the majority of the plant, to prevent decomposition of other materials. Try holding the lighter just above the bowl and sucking in so that the flame never touches the weed.

The smoke will be less harsh (containing less CO, CO2, other decomposition products - see here) and contain more THC than if the bowl is torched.

[Macee]

SWIY might have also gotton an Indica strain, SWIM has noticed he never feels 'stoned' from an indica strain, because it produces barely any psychoactive effects apart from relaxation (for SWIM atleast) and because of that SWIM smokes more and more until he feels like greening...but still isnt feeling stoned.

Sativa on the other hand.....oh my god massive trip outs

SWIY should ask your friends for any Sativa strained weed and try that, or keep trying until you get Sativa.

Also Cannabis is MUCH less harsher than Tobacco, especially packaged already rolled cigarettes, the packed 'bags' of tobacco is less harsh than the pre-rolled but still harsher.

[Jumpsteady]

SWIM has tried smoking a gram at a time, and he's smoked about 35 or so times, he's tried any thing from joints to pipes, no bongs though, swim has heard that if he just eats pot that it won't work, and that it has to be heated up some how, any suggestions? SWIM cannot just make pot brownies cause it requires making butter, but SWIM should be home alone with none of his other people there a few times this week and will try it.

[ganjapie]

Tell SWIM to just through in an ounce of good skunk into some brownie mix and bake. That should work

[firebeastm]

try with a bong or get better bud

[anonuser30500]

Reminds Swim of the scene in one of the Cheech and Chong movies, were the band are all unconcious and the bearded hippy Cheech looks around and says the weed sucks.

Seriously though, never met anyone who was not wasted on a good decent quality smoke. Everyone feels something, be it positive or negative.

Your Swiy should roll up a few joints and go for a good long walk.

Walking and smoking means your pretty much going to have your body keyed up to process the THC quickly. Take a bottle of some water or juice and maybe your Swiys camera or mp3 player.

[port 21]

Swim was similar, the first couple of times swim smoked weed he didnt get anything aside from a cigarette-like buzz.

He then realised he's wasting his money, and just whacked the rest of his 8th (about 2g) into a joint and ripped on it the hardest he ever had before, and got insanely high.
Now it takes the average amount for swim to get high.
Its odd, perhaps with some its like salvia? Where one has to break through.


Swim agre's with a previous poster, bong or better bud. Or, like swims recomended, more of it.

A friend of a friend of mine told my friend this same method...


When nobody is home, make yourself a bucket.

Get a 2litre pop bottle, scissors, a good size bucket full of water, tin foil, and some bud. Not much weed needed, just a bit.

Cheap, and extremely effective...

1)Cut out the bottom of the pop bottle
2)Unscrew cap, cut a square of tinfoil and turn it into a cone shape (this is going to sit in the mouthpiece of the pop bottle).
3) poke small holes in the tinfoil with a pen or something
4) try to seal the ghetto bowl you've just made around the lip of the bottle, but make sure it can be removed quickly and easily.
5) submerge the bottle in a bucket of water

Push that bottle into the water, pack yer bowl, light, pull up the bottle slowly, remove the tinfoil and heave that shit straight into your lungs.
The water will suck the bottle into the bucket, causing the smoke to speed straight into the lungs. Careful not to suck in nasty water (nasty).

Hit two or three of those and wait five minutes....

Swim can't imagine not getting high from hitting a bucket..
Nothing's wasted except you!


Also, if you've got a cheap metal pipe, unscrew the bowl piece, cut a hole in the pop bottle cap and push the bowl in. Then you can simply screw on the cap and remove it instead of messing around with tin foil.


My friend says you can find a great link with pictures if you google "how to make a bucket"

SwiTrippster, thats a waterfall bong, and indeed is a sure fire way of getting high. Swim has smoked several joints and only got a slight buzz, then taken a huge rip on one of those mofo's and got majorly baked. In fact, he intends to make one on thursday at his bbq .

While SWIM is not the type to insult others groundlessly, in this case he must note that the OP would do well to ignore this wonderful display of dumbassery.

It is a common myth (and an equally commonly refuted one) that the longer one holds in the smoke, the more THC will be absorbed. This is incorrect. SWIY will not be absorbing jack shit into SWIY's lungs after 3-5 seconds have passed except for carcinogenic material.
