How long do you hold the smoke in your lungs? Does it change depending on what sort of mechanism for smoking you use? Do you believe in the old adage, “if you don’t cough, you don’t get off”? Tell me about your breathing habits when smoking.

Contrary to popular opinion - inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale.
As you’re exhaling vapor (or smoke I guess) your body has processed as much of what you can inhale… but then you inhale again and it’d be pretty weird to assume that whatever is left is exempt, especially if you’re rebreathing in some of what you’re exhaling.
But if you really want to get higher and be more efficient with your herb switch to vaporization. Heat much above 450F just completely eviscerate the molecules that are working to get us high, so the best thing you can do for your herb is to vaporize it between 360F-420F (or 445f only with high airflow convection vapes), get mid-sized inhales and rebreath them 3-4 times gently. For someone with a low tolerance this will get them noticeably more stoned from “a single hit” since you’re getting ~<85% of what you would from smoking the same thing.
Bonus: vaporization is decarboxylation so you get to use the vaped herb as edibles
Preach it! When you’re smoking weed, you’re turning perfectly good THC into carcinogens and carbon monoxide. Vape for the win! It’s far less harsh on the lungs!
Any other tips for someone with insanely high tolerance? I mainly smoke out of a volcano at 400° and e dab rig at 420°
I think the only thing we can do to regulate our tolerance outside of taking a break at this stage is to wait as long into the day as you can before you start. I usually try and wait at least 2 hours after I wake up.
Concentrates can significantly raise your tolerance as well, so I’ll tend to prioritize vaping and using concentrates when I need a reset/heavier oain management. Since vaping is more full spectrum it can help get you CBD compounds which can help when you feel like you’re not getting stoned.
Unfortunately outside of waiting longer into the day or taking a break entirely this is about all I’ve got lol. But I’ve got over a decade of daily use coming along and I still get pretty stoned :)
