Re: please help

If you think resin is obstructing your bubbler, let it sit in some isopropyl alchohol, the higher percentage the better (I use 91%), for a while to loosen up the resin. Agitation or a small soft brush can help with the removal of stuck on resin. Don't not use isopropyl alchohol on wood or any painted surface, just glass, metal and plastic. Cleaning the bubbler on a regular basis can help to avoid issues in the future.

so idk what isopropyl alchohol is..is that rubbing alcohol ? Boiling water wont do it? because i wana smoke the resin, but not if its been soaked in isopropyl alchohol

it is tar, not resin, don't smoke it, dump it

Yes isopropyl alchohol is rubbing alchohol and I agree with theengineer, you don't want to smoke what's built up in your smoking devices.

im sorry at the risk of sounding stupid..i thought there was verrrry little tar in weed? so why not smoke it? even around the bowl is tar?

 

[labexperiment]

The tar is a byproduct of the carbon in your smoke with very little THC, reheating and smoking the tar is of very little benefit and is more likely to cause harm to your lungs.

I don't agree. I have been smoking the grunge out of my bong for 40 years. When ya run out of bud it works great and I have gotten stoned to the bone on it many times. If you have a head or smoke shop any where near you they have stuff called grunge off and it works great...........

 

[theengineer]

that sounds terrible, I'd rather smoke vaped weed tbh

 

[Dennise]

Well so would I but when that's all ya got that's all ya got. Will admit since I started growing my own I haven't had to worry about it so I have stopped saving it......
