Dear all,
thank you for your informative comments and your patience with me occasionally using the word "smoking" instead of "vaping".
I should have expected the members of a forum called fuckcombustion to push back on this.
Here information in response to some of your queries.
1.) I get good clouds and airflow at all temps
2.) The flower is an even brown after vaping
3.) The broken up hash gets more dry and a bit darker. (I have no idea how to tell if hash is completely vaped through. I just vape it until I don't get any more smoke.
4.) The mighty is original bought from S&B's website.
As a point of clarification when I say I felt a slight high while vaping I mean the following: Imagine taking a few puffs from a joint. If you stop there you will feel a slight buzz, comparable to the buzz you feel after having 2 beers. No where near enough to be drunk or even tipsy but you feel something. This is most certainly not me being high. I know what feeling high on a vaporizer feels like. I remember the first time I vaped in college. I used a friend's flowermate and after 4-5 hits I was definitely high. Probably higher than I'd been for months previously, smoking.
So I do not think that my current situation can be entirely ascribed to a different high when smoking or vaping.
Tonight I will give it another shot since I'm seeing Batman v Superman with my girl. I'm getting some very potent hash delivered from a reliable source that I've used on multiple occasions. This should remove the variable of bad weed / hash. In a joint with some tobacco this hash definitely gets the job done.
I'd say I have the average tolerance of a semi daily smoker but considering how much I vaped I don't think that this is too much of a factor. I suppose it is possible that I just have to cycle of smoking for a few weeks. I will report back how things work out tonight.
Cheers,
Felix
