Cleaned my bubbler, got pants-on-head high.

[Reveen]

So last night I decided to scrape a little bit of "honey" that was built up in my EQ whip and then cleaned out my Mobius piece (was hardly even dirty).

I then took a hit, and ended up higher than Ive been off of one hit in months. Same stash, same size hit as I always take, nothing was different. I know that the dirtier the vapor path, the more cannabinoids end up "sticking" on the surface, decreasing the amount inhaled. Can a clean piece really make that big of a difference? It honestly felt like I hit some concentrate, not just herb like usual.

Any insight?

Clean always pulls better.
I also find I have much more evenly vaped buds when clean- this is especially true with my lotus.

did you scrape the honey, then proceed to revaporize it? that would explain the effects, you made vaporizer-hashoil

No, I scraped it out and put it in a container, so I was vaping just herb. My whip connecting my EQ to the Mobius is only about 10 inches long, and I only scraped a few inches in the whip on each end, so most of it is still dirty. The Mobius just looked like it had some hard water stains, no real resin or anything like that.

I had be noticing that it felt like my tolerance had been rising lately, as my consumption had almost doubled in the past two weeks.

Note to self: clean equipment more often!

Did you clean the screen too? That's the only thing I've noticed that makes a difference other than taste in the vape hit

I put a new one in several days ago . . . didn't notice much besides an easier draw.

That easier draw should give you bigger hits, especially on the EQ which is temperature controlled.

I agree, but I had switched screens several days ago and had used it 5+ sessions before I got the super mega hit. I switch screens probably every 2 weeks, so they never really get that dirty.

You know how washing your truck adds 10hp? How you perceive something at that exact moment in time takes president over everything.

Anyone ever see the double slit experiment?

Edit: I wrote "takes president" over everything??? Way to go dude.

You just clean your piece too? Lol

I am on the fence about placebo effect vs "vapor sticking". Both seem possible. Perhaps it is a LITTLE better, but the high brain notices the little improvement, and tricks you into thinking it is amazing. The brains reward for cleaning your glass

I was thinking the same thing. However, since I vape daily at the same time, same size hits (big as I can) same temperature, same everything and got that much higher, it has to be more than just placebo. I mean, I could hardly walk I was so high. That NEVER happens anymore!

Whatever it was; placebo, fresh clean piece, wearing my lucky underwear, etc., I'm just amazed and glad it happened. I'll let my piece and whip dirty up for awhile and then clean it all over again and take note if the same thing happens.

Thanks everybody, for the input!
