Smoking weed without tobacco

Smoking weed can be done in different ways. In a joint, vaporizer, pipe, pure, etc. And the last way is what we will discuss in more detail today. There are some uncertainties about smoking weed without tobacco, which we will now clarify once and for all!

Smoking pure weed

Smoking weed without tobacco may sound strange to the average European, but it is something typically European to mix tobacco with your weed.

For example, in the United States it is completely normal to smoke a joint without tobacco. They even look strange when you start mixing weed with tobacco. But why do we in Europe/the Netherlands smoke our weed mixed with tobacco?

Smoking weed without tobacco benefits

There are some advantages to smoking weed , as opposed to mixing weed with tobacco. That is why we have listed these.

• You can enjoy the taste of pure cannabis

So you experience the full aromatic experience of weed without being hindered by the tobacco when you smoke your weed straight.

• There is less chance of addiction

Cannabis is generally much less addictive than tobacco. Various studies have shown that addiction was much higher for people who mixed cannabis with tobacco. Smoking pure weed reduces the chance of developing a weed addiction.

• A pure cannabis joint means a pure cannabis high

When you smoke weed, you want the effects of weed, not the effects of weed mixed with tobacco. The experience of pure weed differs from mixed weed in several respects. The taste, smell and high are different. The high itself is much brighter when the joint is smoked neat. For some, this clear high is preferable to the sometimes too intense high that can be achieved with a mixture.

• Smoking pure cannabis does not harm your taste buds or your sense of smell like tobacco does

It is common for tobacco smokers to complain of a decreased sense of smell and taste. Cannabis, on the other hand, increases sensitivity to smell and taste. Pure weed does not affect these senses. After quitting smoking, it doesn't take long to regain full function of the nose and taste buds.

Benefits of mixing tobacco with cannabis

In addition to the benefits of smoking weed straight, there are also benefits to mixing weed with tobacco, namely:

• Your weed will last longer

For almost anyone who blends, this is one of the most obvious benefits. For most people, ¼ to ½ gram of weed is enough for a joint, more is too much. Most pure joints contain at least one gram, which results in users mixing the weed with tobacco.

• Mixing with tobacco enhances the effect of cannabis

There's no doubt that mixing it with tobacco somehow alters the effects of weed. Nicotine and tobacco have their own effects on the brain and when used in combination with cannabis, tobacco appears to enhance the effects of cannabis. The high is less 'clear' and more 'hazy', creating the feeling that the high is being intensified.
