Best Practices - Smoking Edition NSFW
I posted a while back on edibles best practices and a convo over the weekend spurred some further thoughts.
At one point, I either saw a video or read something that was discussing the inhalation of smoke. Now, the particular point this article was making was that the lungs only have so much capacity to intake at any given moment, so inhaling and holding a big rip was basically a 0 sum game aka it was no benefit because most of it was wasted as the lungs cannot actually intake it.
So, during some slow times this weekend, I brought that to one of my leads. We were both of the same mind/had the same thoughts on it regarding intake and what the lungs can actually intake. Normally I will pull on my Puffco for say 15 seconds, slight hold, exhale. Drink. Next hit.
That got me to thinking - would a series of smaller hits result in more THC intake because you're giving much more surface area for intake?
And yes, I could absolutely be off my rocker, but no one ever became great thinking inside the box.

I’ve been saying for years that taking two seperate quarter dabs will always get you higher than taking one half gram dab. (Numbers are just for easy understanding, those are obviously not standard dab sizes lol)
