Vaping every night.. tolerance? Should I cut back?

[vik.london]

I used to just do it twice a week. Then 3 times a week. I now tend to do it every night.

I have 2 different types of weed. Both from different sources. I vary it.. (kind of like drinking white wine one evening, then red wine the next evening)

I've seen some posts on the forum about people having a bag when they wake up :) Ive never done that (except for Saturdays & Sundays)


I work for the government/ civil service. So I am very much in the closet as far as doing weed is concerned. It's very big no-no. :o

Plus another thing.. how many times can you vape the same bit of ground up herb? Cos sometimes when I am so off my face I can't tell.

Also, i use an easy valve. I fill it to the top of the filling chamber (nearly) .. is this correct? I know I should read the manual, but I can't really be bothered at the moment..

The manual will tell you that you only need about 5mm of weed in the chamber...some of us stir between bags, some of us don't.

I stir between bags and get about 4 small-medium-sized bags with my Volcano Classic on 5-6. Then I re-grind the herb and can usually get another 3 or 4 bags out of it at 6.5-7.5.

Like you, I have a bag a night.

I dont know how yall have an entire bag...i guess I just have low tolerance but I usually take one hit of mid/high grade vapor and Im high and Ive been vaping every night for the past 3 months or so.

Its funny you should say that TT, I just mentioned on another post that really only one or two tokes and I am where I want to be. (also only at night) an 1/8th actually keeps the jar full for quite a while. The bud I am lucky enough to get is really quite nice but even still, I am amazed at the amounts some of the people go through. I will say though that my intentions are not to get wasted, just to relax after a long day.

The bag that I use when deflated is only about 40cm long.

This is exactly how it is with me, my weed lasts forever, i have to buy in small amounts cuz the weed may get stale before i can finish it.

I use .3 per large turkey bag you can pick up at the local grocery. It’s a good mid size trash bag. And it usually fills twice. But the taste isn’t as good & not as potent the second time around. In my opinion if there’s no green left don’t smoke it in the volcano, if it smells like burnt popcorn… chances are its brown.

The volcano got me really lit for a year or so but now I only use it for Hash and Kif, it’s very efficient for that stuff. The volcano doesn’t do the job for a heavy duty smoker. I also think it’s a different high. Volcano is more of a brain high; the bong gets you all over in my opinion.

I think you’ll be just fine smoking it once a night…:D

I also use a turkey size reynolds oven bag, however I usually set mine at a low 2.50 to start, then two bags of fresh/one bag of freshly reground nug is... let's just go with very effective. ;):D:rolleyes:

Also, according to Michael from Storz & Bickel (in episode 86, "Dopecast86: The ULTIMATE Volcano DIGIT Review") the active ingredients are still being released well after the flavour has gone. The take home, for me at least: if you're desperate, re-vape some of your "vapo-poop!" Now, I wouldn't use anything that wasn't "vapo-poop" on a setting higher than 5 or 6, but I'm pretty conservative that way.

It's all about what you like and how you feel. Maybe take a few days off here or there. I've even heard (and read something like this on a psychonautica forum) that if you're a regular user and take just one week off, your high will be pretty psychedelic, and if you take exactly 2 weeks off, it'll be very trippy, of course, it always depends on you, your setting, and the dosage and strain of cannabis.

I don't think there are any extreme physical side effects with nightly use.

Although cannabis is far safer than alcohol it is still a psychoactive drug.

Personally unless your use is for medical resons I feel that long term daily use is not a good road to go down.It is easy to build up a psychological dependancy and I feel long periods without a benchline of sobriety is like a ship without an anchor you have no idea where you may be drifting.

Just like heavy alcohol users if over a long time your social/work interactions are always when stoned then you will find it difficult/uncomfortable to go into those situatons without being stoned.This sort of dependancy is a slow creep but I have seen it in both heavy alcohol and weed users I know.

I find it useful to have a few days off each week I probably vape maybe 2 to 3 times a week and as I have the contrast between the two it is much more a trip than a daily toke.

Sobriety has its own buzz just don't lose that awareness by always being stoned.;)

Great INSIGHT! Thanks DD...


I find myself doing weed (vaping weed) not to get high but to relax and sleep. And it always works (apart from one night where I had insomnia maybe due to low blood sugar or other reasons)
