Not true at all in my experience, but I do live in California so maybe it's different here due to how available it is lol.

nah man, our blunt still reeked of weed. They were legit cigar wraps, blueberry ones yet I could still sniff out weed before I even knew there was a blunt on the go.

Really?..maybe it was just me that couldn't smell it.

It's funny, I didn't really peg you as someone to spout off about things you really don't know anything about. Anywho, the safest way to smoke BHO, full-melt, or any kind of concentrate for that matter is through a percolated glass piece, equipped with either one of these:



The Oil Dome: goes where your bowl goes, and contains either a quartz or TI nail. Heat the nail with a torch til it's red hot, dab your hash up, and enjoy the most flavorful way to experience your concentrates. Preferred by many because you can actually see what you're doing through the opening in the dome.

these,



The Hash Swing/Skillet/Curve: a small bell-like opening collects the vapor after you dab your hash on the TI pad. Works the same as the dome, but with a larger surface to dab on and is a bit more difficult for newer dabbers because there's no viewpoint when you try to hit the pad.

or this:



The Health Stone: a truly innovative way to smoke concentrates, the Health Stone relies on an inert pumice stone that heats super quickly to vaporize any concentrate you'd like. Hash melts right through and expands like nobody's business.

So, in summation; the reason why you shouldn't smoke off knives is primarily because the temperatures you need to heat the knife to to reach vaporization create chemical reactions with the protective, and mostly toxic chemicals that coat stainless steels. All of these methods utilize completely inert, meaning no smoke or vapor is produced when TI/quartz is heated, methods of intake.

Studious stoner is studious.

I've smoked hash with a glass 'knife' & ash-catcher before, that really isn't that bad for you. But yeah, if you're smoking resinated weed out of anything, you really want your hot substrate to be as chemically inert and involatile as possible.

Cheap silverware? Not so much.

Wow, apparently the last time I smoked hash was much longer ago than I thought. I stand thoroughly corrected.

They have an active compound in them called LSA, which is a psychedelic substance, although not nearly as strong as LSD.

I've done them a couple of times, and I know there's a good way to prepare them so no one gets sick...but I've never really done that way. It looked too complicated, and I was too lazy to bother with it, because it never made me sick anyway.

I just boil them, to get some of the junk off of them, then mash 'em up and eat them...usually drinking some tea to wash them down. I've only seen one person get sick taking them this way. I'm sure that some peoples' stomachs are just more sensitive than others.

It's not a bad high, though. Don't expect crazy hallucinations or anything, but it definitely pulls you into an interesting head space, gives you nuts dreams, some closed eye visuals (though not necessarily as vivid as on even low LSD amounts) and some tracers. In my experience.

Do not eat them out of the pouch. Bad news bears for most people, including myself. But yes, everything that Phan said is true if ingested at least semi-correctly.

Not that your wrong but its pretty common for people to get sick. In fact most people I know who have taken MorningGlory felt at least some pain and discomfort including myself. Not to say it wasnt worth it.

So would anybody actually recommend them as a suitable substitute for more conventional psychedelic drugs? I always have a tough time getting shrooms here, and I did acid once and that was mooooore than enough. I don't mind tripping out, but god damn I do not have 12 hours to dedicate to a drug, I got **** to do.
