<His button having been pushed, he steps up on his soap box and takes a deep breath>

There is a lot of mystical nonsense in the cannabis community that marijuana smoke isn't bad for you, but while it's clearly not as bad as tobacco smoke, anything that's burning makes a witch's brew of combustion byproducts, including benzene, carbon monoxide, and a whole slew of really awful other stuff.

Compare that with heating THC and some other small organic molecules, like those found in pine and lemon (pinene, limone, etc.) to a low temperature that makes them evaporate and then inhaling those. It will get you just as high, but at MUCH lower health risk.

Speaking as someone who used to smoke a lot of both pot and tobacco and who has been through the cancer treatment ringer (three surgeries, chemotherapy with one of the of the most poisonous substances around, and 10,000 chest x-rays worth of radiation treatment), you really don't want to get your medical cannabis prescription from an oncologist. (And that's not even taking into account the damage that those combustion byproducts do to your heart and the rest of your circulatory system, and your skin (wrinkles!), and increased incidence of impotence, weird changes to your immune system, etc etc etc).

Along with amazing improvements in strains and growing techniques, we now have awesome little battery-operated vaporizer units that fit in your pocket or AC heaters that fit on a bong.

That's why I've got that "Don't smoke it, vape it" tagline in my sig file.

And if you really want to be kind to your lungs, there's always edibles!

OK, stepping off my soapbox now.

Stay healthy, brothers and sisters!

I know this is a really old post but wanted to say I this!!
I’m 100% vape, trying to secure enough product to do more edibles.

Welcome to the grow! Yeah, combusting then inhaling material is bad for your health. I still combust! And vape too. Are you currently growing your own cannabis? Buying product to make extracts would get expensive pretty quick.

Thanks Canada Guy. Just growing tomatoes on the DL, due to the day job. Mostly studying the experts here. Nice thread here!

Why does BG look like its days are numbered? It's getting droopier with each passing day .

Hey guys! Looks like it's going to be a green Christmas! Tangerine Dream got chopped today and is now hanging out behind the tent drying. She was started on August 24, so from seed to harvest was exactly 4 months. I'm very excited to smoke some TD! It's one of my favorites. I started using nitrile gloves during the harvest so no more sticky fingers. I think it also preserves the trichomes as the oil of my hand sucks up all those little mushroom heads degrading the quality of the final product.

Anyone else doing an 8 way LST?

Thanks for following along.

Just neglect... I should up pot her.. should start on veg nutes too.. maybe water more often.. but its Christmas and I'm kind of busy with everything else. She will be fine, these little plants are very resiliant.

Hey guys! Today Blue Gelato got topped. Shes at the 4th node so it's time to top. I only top/fim 1 time per plant and then it's all LST. Well sometimes its just T, as I break branches sometimes in my efforts to bend them to my will. I'm hoping to get her into a bigger home soon. Tangerine Dream is a couple days behind but she is seemingly quite happy. I will be taking out the CFL bulbs and putting in my little LED for the rest of the veg cycle soon.
