Different Types of Smoking Paraphernalia
There are so many ways to smoke cannabis/marijuana that this probably list most of them, I may or may not forget something. Please let me know if I do!
List of all types of smoking Paraphernalia:
Water Smoking (Uses water in the chambers to "clean and cool" the smoke):
Bong - I love bongs they are my weapon of choice when toking up. I suggest getting a bong without the down stem and bowl built into it which will have a carb as well. The more air tight the bong the better, the thicker the bong the better because lets face it some stoners tend to break their pieces a lot I am one of them!
Bubbler - Similar to a Bong it is usually smaller portable water piece that has a carb on the side of it.
Hookah - I only recommend hookah if you are ok with mixing your bud with some tobacco because Hookahs tend to waste a lot of weed, I don't get as high on it like I do with a bubbler or bong.
Dry Smoking (No water is used with these smoking tools):
Rolling Papers - The original way to smoke is to roll up your cannabis with some papers this is what is called a "Joint". Spliffs is a term from England that usually means it has tobacco and weed mixed into it.
Blunt Wraps - Oh you got your 40? and want to be like them gangsta wrappers? Many people like to smoke blunts in groups because of the slow burn vs a joint that burns fairly quick. Remember that the wraps are made of tobacco so if you don't like tobacco stay away from blunts if your ok with it every now and then I recommend it for a chilling night out with friends.
Glass Spoon or Pipe: Pipes or Spoon can be made in a variety of ways from an apple, to wood, to metal, to glass. This is what many people will be starting out besides rolling paper will use as it is cheap and easy to replace if broken.
Steam Rollers - Steam Rollers can come in a variety of ways homemade toilet paper roll steam roller to a glass steam roller. Depending what kind of steam roller you have these are like a sideways bong with out the water if that makes any sense. You usually cover the end with the palm of your hand then light up, and once your ready instead of releasing a carb, you release the palm of your hand that is covering the steam roller and it shoots right into your throat. A nice invention from Incredibowl makes a very nice steam roller.
Vaporizers Balloon - Balloon vapes are great for anyone that wants a healthier alternative to smoking marijuana. The machine will fill up a bag with vaporized THC smoke and all you have to do is kick back and draw on the balloon like a sipping a glass of wine. Check out the Volcano Vaporizer to understand more about what a balloon vape is.
Vaporizer Whip - Some vaporizers are interchangeable and can be a balloon or a whip vaporizers. You have a tube that you draw out from its similar to how a Hookah works but with vaporized weed.
Vape Pens - Its a pen like thing that vaporizers flowers or oil depending on the modular you have be sure to buy the correct ones they will either say for herbs flowers, or essential oils!!
