I've always found it odd that there has been this quest for stronger and stronger cannabis. In my experience it all costs the same. That super dank hydo that has had daily love and care sells for the same price as bush weed that was planted in a forest and then harvested a few months later. I don't really smoke weed, but when I do I much prefer smoking spliffs (tobacco and weed, rolled into a joint). I think the French have the right idea, they smoke weed all day long and are never too high, because they are basically smoking cigarettes with a touch of green in them. Of course, it's terrible for you because you're basically smoking giant cigarettes with no filter.

> Of course, it's terrible for you because you're basically smoking giant cigarettes with no filter. This is a super easy thing to do, but kind of difficult to explain. I'll give it a try anyway: Disassemble the filter of a cigarette. Split a small part of it (vertically) and fold it in half. Tear off the middle of the rolling paper's filter (about a centimeter in length). Place the small part of the cigarette filter into the middle of the rolling paper's filter, and fold the sides into a "W" shape like you usually would. Do that once, smoke a joint, and when you're done with it, disassemble the makeshift filter you've made. Once you see how tar turned your makeshift filter almost completely black and realize all of that would end up in your lungs otherwise, you'll never roll a joint without this step. It makes the process of rolling a bit more complicated (and almost impossible to do properly without having scissors near you), but it's totally worth the effort.

  Or just buy some of these https://www.amazon.com/Raw-Threads-Regular-Natural-Unrefined/dp/B00AHHDF80 https://www.amazon.com/Raw-Threads-Regular-Natural-Unrefined... Any tobacco store that sells rolling tobacco will have a variety of options available in sizes/densities/etc.

    I think they give it a disgusting taste. I rather have no filter, or much better, pipe filters. They are ceramic, paper and charcoil. https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Perl-Junior-Pipe-Filters/dp/B007TV2LE6 https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Perl-Junior-Pipe-Filters/dp/B007TV...

> cigarettes with a touch of green in them. your typical euro-cone is usually a 50/50 mix using 'good stuff' in a jumbo paper. far from mild.

I bought a vape pen that has a frankly preposterous amount of THC inside each cartridge. It takes like 4-5 good rips to get good and stoned, but one small toke every hour or two keeps me mildly stoned throughout the day like you describe. It's a matter of self control though, because it can get awfully tempting to take those four good rips instead of a small little one. And it's a vape instead of smoking anything, but at these quantities it almost doesn't matter.

Stronger cannabis probably makes less sense these days with the availability of vaporizers but it I totally understand why someone might want to inhale less burning plant material to achieve the same desired affect.
