SECTION 01 • PREPARATION

Get Ready the Right Way

🔥

Grind Your Flower

Use a clean grinder for even particle size. Too fine = harsh smoke. Too coarse = uneven burn.

🧼

Clean Your Gear

Dirty pipes, bongs, or papers ruin flavor and waste cannabis. Isopropyl alcohol + salt for glass.

💨

Choose Your Method

Joint • Blunt • Pipe • Bong • Vaporizer. Each has different technique and efficiency.

SECTION 02 • TECHNIQUES

Step-by-Step Smoking Methods

🌀

Joint / Spliff

  1. Grind flower evenly
  2. Fill paper evenly, tap gently
  3. Twist tip tightly
  4. Light the tip evenly while rotating
  5. Inhale slowly, hold 2–3 seconds, exhale
Pro tip: Use a filter tip (crutch) for better airflow and to prevent scooby snacks.
🪨

Pipe or One-Hitter

  1. Pack bowl loosely
  2. Corner the bowl (light only one edge)
  3. Take slow, steady draws
  4. Clear the chamber between hits
Best for microdosing and flavor preservation.
💧

Bong / Water Pipe

  1. Fill water to cover percolator holes
  2. Pack bowl lightly
  3. Light and pull slowly until chamber fills
  4. Clear the hit in one smooth motion
Cooler, smoother smoke. Change water after every session.
🌬️

Dry Herb Vaporizer

  1. Grind medium-fine
  2. Load chamber without packing tightly
  3. Start at 360–380°F (182–193°C)
  4. Inhale slowly and steadily
Healthiest method — preserves terpenes and avoids combustion toxins.
SECTION 03 • BEST PRACTICES

Pro Tips for Better Sessions

Do This

  • • Inhale slowly and deeply
  • • Hold for 2–3 seconds max
  • • Exhale fully before next hit
  • • Stay hydrated
  • • Use fresh, high-quality flower

Avoid This

  • • Harsh, fast pulls (wastes cannabis)
  • • Holding smoke too long
  • • Smoking in one big hit
  • • Dirty or clogged devices
  • • Smoking on an empty stomach

Final Reminder

Start low and go slow. Know your tolerance. Smoke responsibly in a safe environment. Respect the plant and your lungs.
