I Have been watching the Frankenrig for a few iterations now its looking great . I'm holding onto and utilizing my buddys glass with ash catcher and its awesome. Engineeringftw

Honestly, this has been my experience with pretty much every portable flower vape I've owned, from the Pax2 to the Arizer Air to the G Pen thing I got. I definitely get high, but it's not consistent, the flavor is mediocre and the experience overall just is nowhere near as satisfying as blazing a bowl. Yes, I'm starting at the lowest temp, I'm using a fine grind, I'm packing it tight BUT NOT TOO TIGHT, I'm letting it warm up properly, etc.

yeah, same to all points! i guess i was just way less of a stoner when i first got it and enjoyed it.

i think the pax is especially mediocre, though. i use an arizer or dynavap daily, but I dusted off my pax because I thought it would be a nice handwarmer right now. it’s whispy nothing poo poo.

Sandwich it in just about any vape like this:

Flower
Crumble
Flower

I think the Pax is good for when you need something that's got a large bowl and you may not be in a position to switch batteries but could still stir the bowl. It's a complete tank too, I've abused the poo poo out of my Pax2 over the years. But yeah, vapor production is absolutely sub par and that's a big part of the problem for me. The G-Pen is alright, vapor production sucks but it's absolutely a good unit for home use where you can charge and gently caress around with it. Still looking for the right one but I really don't wanna spend more money on this poo poo

If you're really serious about getting the most vapor potency / production then you need either a Dynavap with a solid butane torch or a hard-hitting plugin like the E-Nano or Da Buddha - anything that runs off a battery will invariably have to make concessions in one way or another

Aluminum foil works great for hash. Just put it on there and light it up underneath, use a mouth tooter to suck it in. That's what I often use after I fly somewhere since you bring the foil with you clean and then just trash it after you've used it enough.

Hey, you said 'quick and dirty'!! And no it's not poisonous although some people seem to think that. Stuff that is designed to be put on food at high temperatures is not gonna hurt you.

Extremely pro tip from a DBV owner: if you're considering replacing it as your herbal vape, convert it into an e-nail using one of their kits. It becomes such a convenient little self-contained dab rig that it makes getting uselessly faded almost too quick and easy. Get an adapter that lets you hook the whip to a bong / bubbler and it's pretty much the end of the line for your productivity in life.

Seems like after vaping for a few months, weed no longer makes me ravenously hungry. Also (I timed it) I feel really anxious for about 15-20 minutes after I vape for the first time in the day, but, I noticed one of the strains I have doesn't have that effect at all, African queen by flow kana so I suppose that's my favourite strain now.

You get more of a stink going all at once from dabbing, but it tends to fade quicker than a full herbal vape session - it's pretty comparable regardless, and still miles away from the funk of smoking

Temps seem to be pretty important as well for vaping both oil and flower in terms of smell. Both will smell right away but it tends to be "fresher" and dissipate faster at lower temperatures. If you really roast your dab or your bowl you'll get that extra layer of funk that lingers more.

Short version: they're probably just spraying chemicals on inert plant life, so lot of the same production issues as around any synthetic.

You're fine if you want that THC-V. If you believe the blogs, though, then you're not getting the full effect of the myrcene, etc. I tend to vape once at about 334, then again at about 370-390, depending on what I'm looking for. Vaping at higher temperatures just knocks me out, which is an effect I don't generally get when I smoke (though I almost only ever smoke blunts anymore, and rarely, so the nicotine may be a factor).

https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/how-to-customize-a-cannabis-high-with-temperature

Strong potential for woo here, but I can consistently pull at least two "highs" out of a vape bowl at different temperatures, so it's worth it to me just for the cost-effectiveness.

I could presumably combine a dose of terpene/CBD with a strain-nonspecific gummy to get effects similar to a given strain with those terpenes, right? Plus the effects of CBD, of course. Phytodabs sells high-terp CBD tinctures with individual terpenes or multiple terpenes as found in various popular strains. I'm thinking that + a regular mutt hybrid gummy should be close to, say, a Blue Dream edible.

Smell it and look at it, mostly. High quality weed smells very, very different from shwaggy dirtweed. It also has a lot more visible crystals outside and inside and should have a pleasing nuggetty shape.

Did you get it on the black market?

I got it from the same guy I always get it from. He knows I'm casual, so I guess it's possible that he tried to play me. I've been a customer for years though, so that would be pretty hosed up. :smith:

There was a difference though, now that I think about it -- usually when I buy it, it comes in these normal little clear baggies, but this time they came in labeled, sealed baggies. Like, it almost looked like a candy wrapper, but bigger.

if its flower you can tell by looking at it, feeling (by breaking it apart), and smelling it.
people already mention what to look for there. the packaging it comes in means nothing.

if its flower or anything else (like concentrate) you can also tell by smoking it then see how you feel.

If you think it's poo poo, call it out. Just be respectful and most people, especially people you've known for years, will just apologize and hook you up. My old dude (I really need to tell his story some time) sold me some real crappy bud once and when I called him out, he apologized and promised to make it right next time he dropped by. Ended up getting like an ounce and a half for less than the price of an ounce, a giant variety of strains and it was all amazing. Good hook ups will make that right.

Thanks for that link! I'll read it again before I smoke next time and see if I can get two highs as you said. Looks like I can smoke my non-thcv stuff at a much lower temperature.

Friendship ended with Durban Poison. Now Flow Kana's African Queen is my best friend. (with durban poison I get anxiety for 15 minutes after smoking).

edit: also vaped some DP yesterday at a lower temperature, like 370. No anxiety. Later on I smoked it again at 430, Anxiety time.
