- i surfed the web sites a few dozen times and on a lot of the major pages
- ive noticed a few things missing whenever it came to doing hash or hash oil
- ... it seems like a lot of people put emphasis on this smoking "vapour" off
- of oil... and from experience ive tried it before and its pretty much a joke.
- you arent going to catch jack this way unless you are super patient and like
- to sit around all day sucking on spoons and things... i have NEVER heard of
- people doing this shit before, so any of this nonsense about heat "burning"
- up all the thc sounds a little overstated to me.. yer "burning" thc in a
- joint or a pipe too and thats been working pretty damn fine so far :-)
- the aesthetic rewards of being able to SMOKE hash alone should outweigh any
- fear of burning up half a percent of THC or what have you...
-
- the ways i have ALWAYS done hash/oil are the following:
-
- 1 - in a joint, just dab some oil or broken bits of hash in there with
- some tobacco or some dope.. even leaf is nice cuz its a little easier
- to toke pot then tobacco in my experience.. tobacco burns so much
- quicker too... anyhow, put your stuff in, spark it and smoke it like
- a regular joint.. this is by far the most inefficient way and i
- practically never do this.. but in a pinch it will do. (especially when
- you only have a little hash and lots of friends :> .. you can also
- coat a pin and stick it down in a cigarette and rub the oil off on the
- tobacco around it.. after all a cigarette with filter and all looks
- pretty innocuous and you can smoke this practically anywhere...
- (sporting events, concerts, anything where yer not too sure if its gonna
- be an open-drug sort of environment and want to play it safe) ...
- a guy in my town takes zigzags and coats them in oil.. like literally
- SOAKS them in some serious black hash oil.. then sells em for a buck.
- if you wanna make some quick cash with your oil this is a good trick.
- $70 worth of oil will thoroughly coat 100 papers.. at a dollar a pop
- people will buy em up mighty quickly but you turn a profit.. with which
- you can go buy more oil.. :> and its good for the dupes too cuz when
- your poor, $5 will get you and your mates a little buzzin... heh..
- another kinda dirty trick is to pass off roofing tar as oil.. i have
- watched this happen to people i know several times... i dont have any
- advice on this.. safest bet is to take a toke of the shit right before
- you buy it.. its not worth $30 or $35 to get shafted like that.. or
- if you LIKE shafting people what you can do with the B.T. business i
- describe down below.. is to do the bottle normally, but while the bead
- burning.. smoke the cigarette.. :> the hash wont go in the bottle but
- into YOU.. you wont get ALL of the hash this way.. and its not very
- efficient, but what you can do is then sell the "toke" to little kids
- for $2 ... and all the kids getting is a big ball of cigarette smoke
- and a wee bit of hash.. heh.. rude but funny.. little kids shouldnt
- smoke hash anyway!
-
- 2 - hot knives are probably the most efficient way of smoking hash or oil,
- you get absoloutely everything out of it this way... take a knife (i
- have always used two, usually with wooden handles so you can get em hot
- without melting), take the knives and put them on the element of an
- electric stove and let em roast there for a bit.. (dont get too crazy,
- someones gonna have to hold these and not get REALLY burned)... anyhow,
- once theyre piping hot you take a *SMALL* bead of hash or hash oil and
- plop it down on one knife and sandwich it inbetween the two blades..
- having one blade isnt so great cuz it more or less sears the one side of
- yer bead and im willing to bet some is gonna be wasted.. so we always
- mash it in there and smoke comes *BELLOWING* out.. thus you can see the
- reason for a small bead... get 2 or 3 people to suck up all the smoke
- with straws/bic pens... whatever.. the best gimmick we had was this
- real long thin rubber tubing.. like 5 feet of the shit.. and because
- the ends are so small you can get like 5 or 6 people all squeezed around
- the knife and toke ALL the smoke almost instantly... this way theres no
- waste and its cool cuz like you can do one dab right after the other..
- now.. the problem with hot knives is.. i dont live on my own.. and
- neither
- do the majority of my friends.. the smell from hash isnt really strong
- compared to dope.. but hey, its still a slight odour, and theres lots
- of smoke! so as a general rule its pretty rare i get to hot knife in
- someones house... (same goes for making hash and hash oil.. so find a
- dude who lives on his own and become his best friend? :) i as a general
- rule dont like hot knives as much as bottle tokes cuz theres something
- kinda hardcore about sitting around a stove sucking on a tube.. the
- whole kitchen scene reminds me too much of smoking crack or something
- i dont know.. call me weird.. so i stick to B.T.s (described down below)
-
- 3 - pipes.. yea... pretty much the same as a joint.. the idea is to smoke
- the hash and not waste it all cuz its quite easy to do when yer dealing
- in such small amounts.. because of the way hash "steams" sort of.. it
- does make sense not to scorch yer hash with an open flame.. mix it with
- tobacco and smoke it in your grandads pipe? maybe.. i dont think this
- is the brightest way to smoke hash but i imagine it could work fairly
- well... a flat wood with an indentation kinda like an incense burner
- might work fairly well if you were patient...
-
- 4 - my absoloute personal fav cuz its just plain fucking *COOL* is to do
- B.T.'s.. its the first way i did hash and hash oil, and it will be the
- last cuz its the very best :> yet funny, i have *NEVER*, not once, heard
- mention of bottle tokes on the web.. sure.. people got bongs and damn
- vapourizers and all this weird crap but no plain old simple bottle tokes.
- so heres what you do... find a bottle... plastic or glass your pic...
- glass is harder to work with and a bit weighty to carry in your coat
- pocket... but it also doesnt melt and stink like plastic can if your not
- careful.. so ill deal with each one seperately ..(pick your fav and go!)
-
- plastic - this is probably my most common choice just cuz its easy to
- do in a hurry.. take yourself a plastic water bottle, pop bottle, or
- some kinda plastic bottle.. (its usually good to have a top, unless your
- bright, in which case youll have noticed hash smoke sinks and cigarette
- smoke rises.. use this knowledge however you want, either way i keep
- tops cuz theres ALWAYS the dork thats gonna jostle you around in a car
- when your doing a B.T.) ... anyhow.. take a smoke.. fire it up.. now
- puff and blow really quickly and get it burned down about a centimetre,
- then puff on the end and blow away the ash so yer left with just that
- solid glowing heater.. take that sucker and burn a hole in the side of
- the bottle near the bottom.. hold it up there and GENTLY push once you
- see the plastic start to melt out of the way.. (make sure you removed
- any paper or wrapping from the bottle too)... move the smoke around to
- make a hole bigger then the cigarette.. just large enough that you can
- easily fit a smoke in there and cover the excess up with your fingertips
- .. no need to be scientific here.. just make a damn hole :> ...
- put yer cap on there and then get out yer dope.. if you have hash
- break off a bead as to yer liking.. but *NOT* too big.. make it bigger
- then the head of a pin but a FUCKING lot smaller then a tictac :> if
- you make the bead too big the insides wont get used up in this method..
- and we all know this is *WASTEFUL* right? ... :-) ok now take your
- cigarette, really quickly puff exhale puff exhale puff exhale, then blow
- off the end so yer left with *JUST* a glowing heater.. (get used to this
- cuz doing b.t.'s yer gonna go through lotsa smokes :-) ... now take your
- bead and make sure its on a hard surface (smoke pack.. book.. friends
- leg.. whatever..) now take the smoke and gently push the heater DOWN
- on the bead.. like horizontally lower the smoke and press the bead into
- the heater.... if you made a good solid bead and you blew off ALL the
- junk ash the bead will get STUCK to the heater.. if you are smoking oil
- take an unfolded paperclip or a pin, scoop up a bit of oil and like
- rub it ONTO the heater so it sticks nicely.. now stick your smoke
- WITH the bead on it into your bottle hole.. (make sure you dont drop the
- bead anywhere in transit.. this will always result in the owner of the
- hash mocking your waste of a toke)... now with the smoke in there.. you
- watch the bead closely... it will begin smoking under the heat and you
- will see it let off its own STREAM of smoke.. now the hash smoke will be
- thicker then any tobacco smoke in there.... and it will collect on the
- bottom of the bottle.. if its true hash the bead will most likely
- suddenly go red.. and then turn into ash.. or if its some kind of hash
- gum (like jamaican finger hash) it will simply stop smoking.. this is
- your cue to take the smoke out and cover the hole with your thumb.. blow
- off the ash from the cigarette (whoevers smoke it is might want to try
- and get anything left from the bead.. but there wont be any ok.. so dont
- bother.. heh).. now tilt the bottle and watch the smoke ROLL down the
- bottle.. if its true hash and you werent shafted you will see a large
- ball of hash smoke floating around in there.. its quite pretty actually.
- now.. lower the ball down near the cap..(you want to toke the hash..
- not all the cigarette smoke that went in there :) .. now pull off the cap
- and put yer lips on the spout man... take your thumb off the hole.. and
- breathe in :-) wh00h00 and yer hit with that happy hash head rush.
- if you are low on smokes its a good idea to do all of this quickly and
- pass the bottle/smoke on to the next dude cuz its extremely wasteful to
- go through a dozen smokes just to get stoned.. :> i make a point of
- getting at least 6-8 B.T.'s off a single cigarette.. so you can too!
-
- glass - glass is probably better cuz no plastic fumes get in the way to
- stink up yer toke and what not.. to get a hole in a beer bottle heres
- a cool trick.. drop a dime in there.. let it slide down to the bottom,
- now flick the beer bottle upwards towards you in a sudden and even jerk,
- let the coin slide back down and flick again in the EXACT same way ..
- the idea being you want the dime to hit the same spot in the beer bottle
- many many times.. as you do this a soft spot will begin to crack through
- the glass and you can chip it out quite easily.. ive seen friends do
- this and form a PERFECTLY round hole in 30-50 flicks... i cant do it at
- all myself cuz i suck.. hehe.. or if you have it get a drill press and
- just drill a hole in there... if you have a small drill bit what you can
- do is just create a LITTLE hole in the bottle.. which you can in turn
- PLUG UP with the hash.. and then use a lighter to heat the glass around
- the bead... this would i guess be sort of like vapourizing cuz yer
- heating the hash up without burning it.. but whatever.. i use smokes cuz
- its a little easier to manage... but once you got a hole in the glass
- bottle you do everything exactly the same as the plastic one... and
- have fun with that...
-
- B.T.'s are great when you are a moving kinda person.. like if your always
- out and about.. on the beach in the late evening is great.. or in a car
- any time.. on trails and just wherever you are... if your bottle is
- glass.. keep it.. for a long.. long.. long time. :-) you will soon no
- longer be able to see the insides of the bottle cuz of all the resin
- built up on the walls.. if you are a serious miser you can crack the
- bottle and scrape off the insides to have some seriously harsh gooey
- gum.. i never do that cuz i usually go through bottles left and right,
- and the shit you get out is fucking harsh as hell and doesnt really
- get you THAT high or anything... all in all id say B.T.'s are my fav
- way of doing hash.. not as effective as knives and not quite as soulful
- as smoking a joint.. but a good inbetween :>
