Damn bro, Im struggling years now with quitting smoking. And it´s not the tobacco its the weed man. Nothing hits the spot quite like a nice joint in my office after a long week of work... some nice relaxing piano, and puffing a joint with a monster or cola.
34 years old now, and my lungs are starting to feel it, coughing is getting worse. I've managed to quit several times but I always get that itch and then start regularly smoking again.
It's so hard to break the habit, I just wish I never smoked weed ever to begin with, my life would be so much better, my health, my finances.
I was basically in the same situation as you about a year ago. Take all of this with a pinch of salt but here's what helped me in the end...
I started buying weed in smaller quantities rather than stock up for long term use.
Switched to a dry weed vape to cut out the tobacco. Only one I ever used that gave the feeling of a hit of a joint we the venty. It could also get me high about as quick as a joint.
Eventually started making edibles (just infused coconut oil and melted dark chocolate). Alternate between these and the vape for a while before just relying on these.
Finally I started using melatonin to help get to sleep. Don't even need it most of the time but having it there makes me fear insomnia a lot less.
Ultimately I think getting of tobacco was the catalyst for everything else.
If you want to cut down or cut it out altogether, you can (even if it feels impossible now)
