Anyone else have a really low tolerance?

I vaped about 0.05ish a couple nights ago and was completely gone. I was on the phone with a friend and I had trouble comprehending how conversation worked and what she was talking about lol.

Granted, I only toke about once a week. But I think there's something else at play here. I find that if I vape for like 2-3 weeks in a row, and then I go and smoke, I get super high off like a pipe hit or two. But it works in reverse too. Meaning that if I smoke for a couple weeks in a row, going back to vaping gets me super high with very little.

Yup. Small loads for me is key and I can get one gram lasting me a month. Doing small loads and waiting a bit between hits allows you to better judge how high you are without overshooting the mark.

I was just wondering what one of my infinity hits would do to you, they run as big as .15g apiece.
:science:
Edit: prolly about the same as it would do to me if I abstained completely for over a month, I turn into a complete lightweight and one of those hits would make me fucking catatonic -- I've been there. It's not fun in public, but can be a blast at home with pink floyd turn up and a bowl of ice cream at the handy.

The smoker I drink, the player I get.
Yeah - pretty low tolerance here....about 2-3 months to vape an eighth!

I feel myself going in cycles of tolerance now, it's kinda weird.
I consider the beginning of the cycle when my tolerance is nonexistent; which for whatever reason happens every time I go without for a day or two.. The next few days are actually the most challenging, because I can't gauge yet how much or what to vape with- and oftentimes I find myself incredibly almost overwhelmingly high, which is about 2 notches past my comfortable level with only having vaped 1 load.
Next, I just build a tolerance in a weak exponential curve over about a week/week-and-a-half.

Man, words look funny. Ha! :ko:

I have the opposite problem actually. My tolerance is just stupid high. On average I probably go through 2 grams of nugrun oil and an eighth a week. It's been hard for me adapting to just vaping. I think I seriously need to quit for a week or two, start again with no dabs or smoking and just vaping to get to a respectable tolerance.

Almost there...
I have no idea of my usage but it is no very much.
I just finished some bud i bought at the start of the year... Thank goodness for CVaults!

Anyway i get blasted/medicated the same every night using the same amount.
It may vary a tiny amount especially when a new strain arrives! But otherwise i pretty much get medicated every night and this has been going on 3 years straight now.
Had a few breaks during the 20 years since i started but don't really partake in combustion anymore.
I still like to burn the odd nug to see what it tastes like and mostly it tastes like burning crap!
Then i give up for a few months, get really high and forget and hit the bong again... LMAO!!!

See i told you... rambling away here totally off topic... sorry!

Longtime lurker here. This thread intrigues me. I vape about 3-4 times a week (but also take some edibles on the nights I don't vape.) I measure out .08gm to .12 gm of finely ground. With my MFLB I usually take two 8-10 second draws and get nicely buzzed. And that amount in the MFLB is good for about 8 draws total. I think the MFLB is an incredibly efficient way to vape. Quick on, quick off, no wasted herb. With the Flowermate Vapormax v5.0 I've had for the last month I go through herb a little quicker because the ceramic oven is on for a longer period, but it's easier to share with someone else because there is no learning curve to use (whereas the learning curve with the MFLB makes it unsuitable for sharing with others who have never used one.) The ABV from the MFLB is usually multi-colored (some very dark and some light brow), but the ABV from the Fowermate is a uniform darker brown. I'd say my THC dose, both from vaping and from edibles, is usually about 5mg or less.

my tolerance is ridiculous, sometimes 1 gram of top shelf shatter to myself in a sitting along with flowers before during and after, and thats just one big after work session not to mention the .3g sessions before and during work and the sessions before bed
i go through an eighth of shatter a week easily along with up to 10g of flowers and whatever edibles i buy at the dispensary throughout the week
i wish i could lower it without a t break...

stay true to yourselves
After a bit of reflection; my 'tolerance' is based on only two things. The quality of the herb that I vaped, and the amount of food and drink i've had that day. If I have eaten poorly then I get a lot higher. Bit of a catch 22

I don't doubt you're doing it, maybe it's just my setup, but about 5 -10 good rips through this DBV vape bong has the bowl what *seems to be* toasted.

Now I guess I'm just in the mindset of "Well it's pretty toasted and I've got such and such amount left, why not just pack a bowl of fresh and get a greens? hit"

I don't continue to vape by the color of my ABV. I only vape to the point that I feel that I am high enough and for me, with the best weed that SoCal has to offer up, that's 2 to 2.5 hits from my LSV followed by one hit from my MFLB or FV.

Not to mention that "hits" themselves are so subject to individual preference that they aren't comparable from one person to the next without knowing the weight consumed. So I won't mention it.

I've always had a very low tolerance. Back in the day, my friends could always continue smoking while I would be at the point of greening out (happened several times). Now that I am vape-only, its even more noticeable by how long my stash lasts.

I finally decided to see how much I consume on a daily basis and wanted to see where you folks are at in your consumption.

I ground up 1 gram (weighed with a digital scale, freshly calibrated) of Blue Dream and wanted to see how long it would take of vaping every night before I needed to grind more. The result? That one gram lasted 14 days of vaping (not all day, a few puffs here and there throughout the evening) and I was pleasantly high every one of those nights.

Is this normal? Trust me, I'm not wishing I had a higher tolerance or anything like that, I consider myself to be blessed actually.

Anyone else out there have an extremely low tolerance?



I should also add that I am 30 and have been using cannabis since I was 15, daily for the past 2 years.

I am pretty much in the same boat. I sprinkle a bit of herb, vaporize it, and well im hanging out with jesus at this point.

I also did not start using it until I was 21, so maybe that's the reason? All my other friends started around in highschool 15/16.

They can go through 1-10 joints a day, and I can barely finish one.

Back when I SMOKED, 1 gram got me high 20 times or more. lol Literally a pea sized nug / 1 hit. Any more than that and I felt "to high" to function properly.
Even less with vaping.

I would have to medicate with about an eighth of flowers a day do achieve desired effects maybe just stop with everything except a hit or three from the bong or pax throughout the day but the oil is by far my favorite I picked up 7 grams of concentrates 4 shatter 1 co2 and 2 honeycomb I'm trying to make that along with a quarter of flowers last me two weeks let's see if I can do it I'm halfway through week one now

This thread is pretty interesting and would like to add my comments as really looking for pointers on this.....

I have got to 0.2g on weekday evenings and weekend 0.5g (3g/week). Previously 7g/week when bonging so vaping have been such a game changer as been a year now vape only but I am determined to reduce this further. I have found that now I have a year of only vaping I really prefer the effects of being lightly stoned.

The massive down size of more is cost, munchies and being lazy. As I am not a fan of any of those thinking in the new year I will purchase a mighty and vape less (find volcano bags just not as great lower than 0.2g). I have a solo but find it is just not as economical volcano I think my goal would be 1.5g/week.

The last two days I have used 0.25g (usually 0.4g) and feel just as high but waited till later in the evening for first vape. Think this is key to reducing use.

Yup, I`m vaping about 1 gram a month of Purple or Afghani Kush (high THC Indica). Averaging a couple of hits before bed but I`m also tincturing Med CBD Sativa mostly during the day and the same high THC Kush in tincture form before bed as well.
I`m often buzzed enough after vaping to get fairly anxious (lots of checking my heart rate and worrying about my mortality) so I definitely qualify as having a low tolerance...

I tend to agree with this. In my experience at least, the first session of the day seems to pack the most "punch". After that, I usually have to use more to get the desired effects.

haha I can totally relate to that, however that seemed to happen to me more back when I was combusting; haven't had that problem nearly as much since switching to vapor
