Vaping vs smoking cannabis

Please share the differences you have noticed between the two:
Personally I find vaping more uplifting and mellow generally, but it also sneaks up on me and seems to have a longer "come up" of sorts.

Care to elaborate?
You saying you like to smoke when out and about but vape on your own when home?

I can't say that I have noticed a difference because I vaporize and smoke at the same time.

I don't know about vaporizing but I see a lot of differences between dabs and smoked flower. I mean dabs are pretty much vapor though. I've noticed acid and dabs have a lot in common whereas flower and shrooms have a lot in common. To me vaped vs smoked is like acid vs shrooms.
Acid and Dabs both -are more lucid -make you sweat -are more potent by weight -artistic and effulgent -hard hitting and sudden -rushing -surging/high-powered -productive -stimulating -streaming -cartoonish -feasible -longer lasting -cleaner -vibrational -vectorial
Shrooms and Weed both -are more sedating -ritualistic -auditory -less social -slower -evocative/reflective -confusing or cloudy -encompassing -immersive and engaged -drifting -phantasmagoric -visionary -imaginative -in your face -physical -anxious -transient -morphic -ascetic
Basically I see dabs/vapor as being more lucid and productive and smoked more of a ritual and entheogenic experience.

In my experience the high from bongs is much heavier, and hits me much harder, even if I'm smoking it really leisurely.
The vape I have is definitely one of the nicer ones, and I've noticed if I smoke it slower, more like my bong speed, I just never really get as high as I would like. However if I just sit back and power smoke a bowl or two, it's pretty close to the high from a bong, but still slightly lighter feeling.

I agree with some of that but dabs can be pretty damn sedating and visual as well just like some flower can be more mellow and uplifting.

Dabs aren't as visual as weed though and I've never felt very sedated off dabs. At least not compared to flower.
In terms of drugs in general ya sure dabs are sedative but when compared to smoked they're almost always more stimulating and lucid.

How much do you dab though? Even stimulating dabs will knock you out if you take enough 
Also one of the most visual experiences I have had from cannabis was taking several dabs after a few week tolerance break so they certainly can be very visual.
I agree a nice kush or indica can have a more in depth trippy aspect sometimes as they have much more diverse cannabinoids but good dabs are mega potent.

Oh ya dude dabs can definitely be quite visual I'm just saying smoked has more likeliness of that happening or at least to a greater extent. I had an experience last December on vaped hash oil that was really like nothing I have ever experienced before. I felt like I crossed a barrier that wasn't there before and it was filled with closed eye visuals, synesthesia and enhanced introspection. But ya like I said I crossed some kind of barrier and it was hard to explain. I was gonna make a trip report about it.
I don't dab ever really anymore I've been smoking nothing but flowers for a while so when I actually do dab I notice the difference quite a bit. Plus I used to dab daily back in 2014/early 2015 and I can definitely see the differences in my daily life.
Smoked actually for me is closer or more comparable to say a psychedelic like LSD even though weed is far from it still....I find it to be closer to that and more boundary dissolving than vaped/dabbed.

If you have a very good vaporizer for herb I would say vaping is both more effective, efficient and enjoyable than smoking.

I have a really cheap (20-30$) table top whip vape that works great for the most part. I love collecting the oil that forms in it to dab as well

In my experience vaping produces very weak effects.
I might try vaping after this long break from weed though and see how it goes.

How have you vaped in the past?
With my tabletop if I set it high enough it can make me cough and the weed will be brown/black and crispy when its done.
I like to set it lower though so it produces smoother vapor which tends to be more mellow and uplifting.
A tolerance break can definitely help but I get a nice high from vaping even while taking lots of dabs

For the last three years I've just vaped mostly, I'll smoke in social situations where the arizer solo is a little cumbersome, but I much prefer to vape. The high is exactly the same imo, but I use about 1/5 the bud when I vape which is nice

That's interesting you use less, I always feel like I go through more for the most part.
Though I am not the best at regulating my tolerance and I like to get really stoned

Never vaped. But interested because bong rips make me cough to hard and it ruins my high, makes me want to vomit and I get a headache. If I take Lil hits I don't as high and feel like I waste more product.
I like joints though
I got a vape jenie but apparently to dumb to figure it out.

The key with bongs for me is to take moderate sized rips and hold them in at least 5-10~ seconds.
Usually it will get me near coughing or even make me cough a little but its not bad at all compared to a fat bong rip.

I joined this board to gas about my Weraroa finds and provide further info that may help fellow fungus fondlers but this thread massages my eyeballs and begs input.
Gave up smoking cigarettes a day before I turned 40 because I knew I wouldn't see 50 if I kept smoking due to chest pains and hacking cough. A cold could lay me low for a week or two and a cough could linger for months.
I once got 4 bad colds in a row because the young fuckers on the course I was attending would wag and only come in when they were sick. I was used to getting only 1 or 2 colds a year so those 4 bad colds did my lungs no good and I've had problems with them ever since. Not insurmountable problems, as luck would have it, so no need to commiserate with me, cannabis proved to be nature's remedy and that magnificent medicine will continue to help me now I've weened myself off big pharma inhalers. Never got ripped on seretide anyway ;-)
After 7-ish years of being nicotine free I began to smoke weed because I had access to cannabis. I'd discovered Rick Simpson and decided I would explore his theory further because I wanted to be able to help any loved ones if they needed oil. I knew several growers and managed to convince them to give me anything due for dumping so I could turn it into oil, I'd keep half the oil because I did the work, using my own alcohol and I'd give the other half to my grower mates to do with as they pleased.
I've gotten sidetracked ;-)
long story shortened: smoking joints too often gave me a cough again so I investigated the available vaporizers and eventually bought an Atmos Jump. I'm not shilling, its the only one I've ever used, a friend got me to order him one after he'd tried mine(and I'd checked the fucker's lips for cold sores) and the two dudes I play darts with start purring whenever I load the vape and say `your turn' to spread the love and lower their skill level.
I recall reading somewhere that while vaping cannabis is considered a no-no by certain medical practioners they can't concretely state it is bad for you.
I love my vape, 3 or 4 puffs on one chamberful in the morning to open the airwaves and perhaps one more later in the day if I'm heading up steep shit for the afternoon. Come the night I'll bang that vape silly until I am ;-)

I used my friends volcano, you know the one that fill the vapor into the bag. I was really excited to try it at the time... But i was really disappointed after using it. I felt completely underwhelmed. Smoking produced much stronger effects for me.
I havent smoked in 11 months. Got another 6-7 months of probation, but after i might get a vape and see how it goes.
I loooove smoking, but it was really taking a toll on my lungs.. Even if i only took one hit from my chillum, i would be clearing my throat for the next 1-2 hours.

The air bag is what really does it for the vaporizer you don't need something too expensive just something that has a fan option for aroma's then you can really get a hit or two in with out puffing your cheeks. it's like a one hitter quitter or whatever they're called. Dont use the whip dry air in general stresses out your throat and lung walls and shit All I want to do is sleep after I smoke though, like it'll be 6pm and I'll be getting ready for bed because I have nothing to do and my energy levels are super low.
