My understanding has been that it is only Sativa dominant marijuana strains that speed up the heart rate, while Indica dominant strains have the opposite effect, slowing the user down into a zoned out state that has long been known as couch-lock. It is thus incorrect to presume that all weed...

To answer your second question, I can only speculate that a small number of first-time vaporizer users were simply born with lungs that react very badly to dry, hot THC vapor, and that for such people, the choices then narrow down to either rigging up a bubbler, going back to combusting or...

The statistic that there has never been a single recorded instance of a marijuana overdose is often invoked by those of us who rightly regard weed as having none of the toxicity present in alcohol and tobacco, but with the explosion of marijuana-infused edibles in legal states and now on the...

Toodlers I had a nasty surprise also, when I first vaped with my Airizer Air on the hottest red setting, and foolishly took multiple huge draws, reveling in that delicious aroma, but not realizing the serious lung and throat damage I was inflicting until hours later. For a couple of days after...

This reminds me of one time I went night-skiing in SoCal, near Wrightwood in the San Gabriel Mountains a few years back. Mountain High West has always been a very permissive place for stoners, and it was normal for snow boarders and skiers to light up joints on the chair-lift going up, or to...

The only vaporizer I'd dare take aboard a plane would be one that has NEVER once been used. Those drug sniffing hounds at the airport can pick up even trace amounts of residue that would be way too small to be visible, and I shudder at the very thought of what could go down at some foreign...

I really wish I had read this post before I incinerated my lungs and throat by deep-inhaling prolonged hits from my new Airizer Air, straight to my lungs, and without that VITAL pause needed to cool and moisturize the vapor. That method of direct inhalation from a dry Airizer air, with no...

Shawn I think you have uncovered one of the main reasons behind this throat burning effect, namely that my home-grown bud, though ostensibly dry to the stem-snapping stage, is almost never cured, since I generally harvest in such modest quantities that I simply "speed dry" the herb up in the...

This post has really cleared up several misconceptions that I have held about vaping, and I can't wait till I am back in shape to try the small sips technique, which actually feels a whole lot more like tokin' on a good ole joint. I now realize that taking prolonged draws to generate those huge...

No offence intended, Ashish. I was just alarmed at the effects I experienced after what I thought were short and measured vape sessions. Please do feel free to ignore my incoherent babbling, since it did arise during a moment of utter panic over that I was experiencing.

Ah, I see a mistake I have been making already. Quetzalcoatl. I assumed that to get any vapor out of my Airizer, deep and prolonged draws were absolutely necessary. When I took small sips, my exhalation contained very little vapor, which led me to assume that the device required a prolonged...

Now that is a but of wisdom that I have never encountered thus far, Gray Area. Intuitively I would have thought ice cold water would have been preferable in a bubbler, but come to think of it warm water is closer to its vaporization temperature, in comparison to cold water, so your idea is one...

Forgive my emotional outburst, Traan, but for a while there I was convinced that my tonsils were going to get so inflamed as to block off my throat and breathing, which was a thought that did induce some serious panic on my part, for sure. The wet cotton ball in the stem idea you suggest, and...

Thanks for the replies Carole King and LL, I definitely will continue to use my Airizer, but only after I take delivery of a substantial table-top bubbler with considerable water capacity, so that this experience never repeats itself in the future. I quit all toking activities for now, while I...

Ok folks I have a rant to share today, and it is that the Airizer, and possibly most portable vaporizers, should be sold with a bubbler as a package deal, and should be sold with an explicit health warning that use of portable vaporizers without a water bubbler COULD incinerate the user's...
