Daily smoker wanting to switch entirely to vapor and Edibles
    #26465339 - 02/02/20 01:45 PM (3 years, 11 months ago)

Hey all,

The point of this post is that I want to switch from habitually smoking cannabis (every day all day) to consuming it purely as edibles or vapor and to consume less. I want to know if any daily cannabis smokers have switched entirely to edibles or have found a way to decrease their consumption.

Theres a number of reasons I want to stop smoking and decrease my cannabis consumption.

1.Money: here in WA state, weed is legal and very abundant which makes it really easy to spend a lot of money on.

2. Tolerance: weed has lost its edge. I used to be blown away by just a couple tokes and now that I smoke all day I just maintain a high that isn't very exciting.

3. Edibles and vapor (from dry flower) are much better for the body.

4. I recently made some brownies from distillate and the high is way better than smoking.

5. I have a decent flower vaporizer (flowermate v5) and the high from that is also way better than smoking but because of maintenance and lack of convenience I find myself taking hits from the pipe instead.

In summary, I am looking for ways to reduce my cannabis consumption (without quitting) so that I can maintain, what I feel is, a healthy relationship with this beautiful plant. I would love to hear how maybe some of you have switched entirely to edibles or vaping, or have decreased your overall consumption - and has this had any benefits.

Hey man, I feel your struggle.

I've been on the Flowermate V5.0s Pro for over 2 years now. I originally had the V5 but I wanted the screen so I could see the battery level.

The maintenance is a pain in the arse, granted, but I'm kind of used to it now. I clean the head and inner chamber once a week and I take it to pieces and clean it once a month or so.

The thing I found hard was adjusting to a lesser high, but I think that I'm over that hump now. I have edibles every now and then just because it's fun to have a stronger sensation, but it isn't often.

Maybe upgrade your Flowermate to something that's easier to manage and you'll find it easier. Hope you figure it out dude.

Even though I just got my flowermate in October I was thinking of upgrading to a fury or mighty vape. I also want one that can attach to a water pipe

I’d say just press your own rosin and vape it, solventless extract is the cleanest way to use buds

This is what I have been doing for about a year now. I bought a dabpress for about $400. It’s a great machine. I never inhale smoke and I get higher faster with very little smell. Of course it looks like I’m smoking crack to those unfamiliar with it.

Is pressing rosin a lengthy process? I will look it up after work but right now I don't have enough time. I have an ounce of really good bud I'd love to press into rosin. Also thinking of infusing it into olive or coconut oil to cook with

Pressing rosin is the fastest way to extract oils, pretty much instantly. You can make a professional quality rosin press with a 10ton shop press and some heating plates. If u are just getting started you can use a hair straightener with decent results. The leftover weed chips can be used to make edibles

I have a dulytek press, it's great.
I have found making coconut oil capsules, with bud or trim to be a good way of maximizing edibles. You have an ounce, you can infuse let's say 400ml of coconut oil with it. You'll lose maybe 50 ml in the process. You'll have 350 ml to work with. 1 ml per 00 capsule. If your bud or trim is say 10% thc that's about 7mg of thc per capsule. You can definitely play with the recipe for stronger and more potent pills. You can find a dosage calculator and check my math.
They are convenient, portable, and discreet.

I concur with FrankRhizo. Oil caps are the way to go.

I use MCT and soya lecithin and I think I end up getting about 350  capsules (I use 000) per ounce. Gives a subtler, longer lasting high and is an extremely efficient way to use your flower.

If you need a quicker hit, and sometimes we all do, I pair the caps with a dynavap 'M' vaporizer. This thing has a tiny bowl but hits hard and will stretch your weed out way further. Between those you should be set. Good luck with it.

Id recommend a high-end vaporizer like the Volcano or the Vapir. They are very effective.

There is extra work with vaping (such as using a grinder on the budz) so be aware of that.

I make rosin too. Its great. The vice grip and hair straightener work fine for me. (took awhile to figure out which brand straightener tho lol)
