I had a kind of weird start with weed. it all started when I was 14(or maybe 13, but pretty sure it was 14), when a friend found some plants somewhere out in the bush(well, small area close to houses). at that point I didn't smoke, nor did any of my friends. the friend who found the plants had rather strict parents, so when he told about it, I said I could ask my parents if I could keep the plant(that friend had kept 1 plant behind and reported the rest to the police).
so my parents said it was ok, but the deal I made with them was that I was allowed to grow, but not allowed to smoke it till I turned 16(since at the time, the agelimit for buying alcohol here was 16).
but, I didn't really know anything about weed. my only encounter with weed was when I was playing with a friend on the local playground, we saw some older boys leaving and my friend said it smelt like weed(I had no idea what it smelt like).
so I went into google to find out everything about weed, how it makes you feel, how to grow it, etc. that first plant was pretty much a failure(didn't even yield 1 gram, my mother had a scale that went up to 20 or 50 granms I think, and it didn't even register on that scale), but over the wintrer I ordered some seeds online and with my knowledge acquired trough google I had a good harvest the next fall.
and on my google-expedition, I inevitably also stumbled upon vaporizers. as a kid that never smoked anything(well, except a big roll of cardboard when I was 6), it seemed really interesting.
so, while my plants were growing, I smoked weed for the first time the day after my 15th birthday(by that time some of my friends had started smoking weed), but I didn't get high. later after my harvest was in, I learned to roll joints, and since I had plenty of weed anyway, I always rolled pure(with tobacco is the norm here), and I managed to get high.
but I still was really interested in vaporizers, so as my 16th birthday was aproaching, I looked more into it and decided on getting the vaporgenie(since, being a 15 year old, I wasn't particularly rich, and it was the cheapest that seemed good). I needed a credit card to order it though, since I ordered it from the US, but around here creditcards aren't exactly common. the only person I knew who had a creditcard was my grandmother, so I convinced her to let me use it to order a vaporgenie. eventually it arriuved a week before my birthday, but since my birthday was close and I already had it I convinced my parents to let me use it already, and that's how I started vaping.
although, even before that I already had some minor vape-experiences. I had some testtubes laying around that I ordered online to keep ants(the most common antspecies around here is lasius niger, and in late summer on a warm, moist day, when you feel thunder will happen soon, you can scoop the antqueens from the streets by the dozens, they're everywhere), since I could only order them by the box, containing at least 50 testtubes. so since I had extra testtubes, and plenty of weed, I tried to vape it by putting some weed in a testtube and heating it above a candle. barely got any vapor, but the taste was delicious, and I did get high from it once.
