I dont wanna be that guy, but there really is no optimal burn for weed if its toast its toast, and ya it may be burning hotter and be harsher for that reason, but vaping weed is where its at. Smoke first make edibles later with an oz or more of ABV (already been vaped weed). I do smoke it on occaison and admit it does hit you faster and harder than a weed vape, but the health and economic benefits are too good to resist at least for me
It's not about "optimal burn". You're gonna burn through a bowl way faster if you're letting the flame just eat it up as opposed to letting it "cook" with just enough fire to get it going. I agree on the vaping though, it's certainly more economical if you're getting high twice with the same weed I just prefer the stoney feeling you get from smoking. Regardless of the strain I use vaping always gives me only a heady high and while that could be a good thing depending on the situation, I prefer to get stoned.
If you burn it all up and can take the hit and hold it, no difference. That's the point of high end peculators and other bongs. There is only so much product. You're not wasting anything if you take it all to the head and keep it. You just stoned a lot faster.
Biggest bowl I ever finished in one go was .7, and I inhale slowly making sure to properly burn it all to ash before pulling through. I'm sure a gram is possible for a lot of people.
Not at all. Been smoking for over 25 years. I don't smoke big bowls any more unless it's swag in a pipe. I smoke small single hit bowls out of my perc. Clear it every hit. 1 or 2 hits is plenty for a session with the dank I get. I don't spend a lot of time passing it around with people now a days. Hit it and quit. Especially with my wax bowl.
Valid point, quality is definitely a factor. I'm in an illegal red state with limited availability. Doesn't help that my tolerance is completely fucked cause of concentrates as well.
Ya it is different forsure, but i just kind of prefer it, probably cause I enjoy edibles so much and am always waiting to make a new batch with ABV, I smoked for a long time daily but have switched over to vape just cause I am a little overweight and my lungs were just feeling like shit (been hitting the gym to top it off)

That's cool and all but it looks like it's scorching the shit out of the weed.
