what do u think an average number of joints per day should one smoke??
my guess is 2.5 joints per day is ok ... 4 is ok on weekends i guess..
and 7 joints per day should be absolute max.

i am asking these because i got promoted and now i work for 2 days, 6 hours per day and then i am free for 2 days... and i have plenty of free time and i have nothing to do ... all of my friends work/study.

so i smoke all day long ... my average in the last month or so is 5 joints per day ... and i think it starts to show .. my lungs are full of slug :) and i cough allot ...

i have asthmatic-bronchitis so this could also be the reason for my bad cough but i am not sure :D

so whats your:
- day average
-weekend max(like when playing ps2/3 xbox360 or doing something fun with friends)
-and what do u think whats the max joint per day limit that no one should exceed :D


so i think :D :

day average: 2.5
weekend max 5
and i think no one should smoke more then 7 joints per day for health reasons :D

on an average day i might get through 10-15 joints a day maybe more depending on how i feel
but then i'm a heavy smoker and i grow the stuff to enjoy it

Get a vaporiser, better for your lungs but the taste is not for everyone (i prefer joints, i know tobacco sucks but i still do).
I don't think the amount of J's you smoke is what matters, it's the THC and cannabiol levels that matter.

I never bother smoking joints on my own, so let's go with what I do always smoke: Bong rips. (Since I bought my new bong haven't bothered with any pipes.) Anyways I can easily smoke a dozen bowls per day, working or not.

i've been smoking for 20 years plus
i've smoked allsorts now i stick to what i grow
some is deadly while others is mild but i can smoke joint after joint and still work carefully and proficiently
just because some others tollerances are different does that make it wrong?
my partner is a long term sufferer from cancer and smokes a lot for pain
me on the other hand smokes for the hell of it and the enjoyment
i have my first smoke on wakeup and instead of smoking regular tobacco during the day i smoke joints hence the reason i smoke about 15 a day
but what the hell i'm gonna die someday so i'm happy with what i do

i too have been helped by marijuana to stay away from the depths of depression. It all depends on how much bud i have and what kind. Usually I'm thinking between 1 to 3 grams a day

Three joints a day when smoke testing.Beyond that its your own taste.7 is a lucky number but we at ic have better stashes than most. :headbange :headbange

About 3 a day. But, I do have a break every few days because it really starts to get to me and I find maths gets progressivly more difficult as the days go by, so a break for a couple of days is needed just to break down the build-up!

I think a maximum of 3 really for me. It's the number I'm comfortable with, it keeps the occasion special and it doesn't mess me up too badly. I don't like wake and bakes either, just an evening smoker that enjoys the nice unwinding feeling of sitting back, putting my feet up, putting a good movie on with some friends and lighting one up.

I eat it raw mainly. When done this way your body will tell you if it wants any at a particular time. Does it smell good to you? Do you feel like tasting it?
Then it seems the body wants something in the marijuana...

This is how primates do it. They walk around tasting plants. If they instinctively want it they eat it. Same with all animals.

With smoking I would guess this instinctive internal mechanism gets thrown off and its harder to calibrate. It seems it becomes more addicting. Maybe more if your MIND wants it...

So then you have to sit there and think, and make threads...about how much is right. Since you are not going by your own internal guide.

But maybe you could apply this instinctive form of usage to smoking... (maybe?)

Do you want to smoke? Would it appeal to you? Are you enjoying each hit? Done this way, if you are enjoying each smoke then keep smoking. The moment its not that enjoyable...just put it down. It might work well...a way to adjust to your own unique biochemistry.

Of course like I said smoking may not work for this... worth a shot though yeah?

good points there man!

i guess the smoking is sort of an ritual for a lot of people. for me it is anyway.. and the fact that it gets you high inmediately as there's not too much time for many to waste in this fast-forward-world.

have tried cooking with cannabis a few times, but haven't had too much luck with the dosage (once too much and too late, and few times too little), would you say it differs a lot when eaten raw or cooked?

I smoke about 1/2 a joint to a joint a day max. More than that and I am worthless.
I only smoke in evening as I am an adult with people depending on me to have my act together.
Going to meetings stoned wouldn't be to productive if a client asked me a question and halfway through my answer I said:" What was I saying?"
I really enjoy my mind as it is. I am not medical, just recreational and clarity is as wonderful a high as is intoxication.

We all have different lives. In my line of work, being high can get you injured or killed. I have seen stoned guys ruin 200 year old hand made wallpaper( fired instantly) and fall off scaffold ( caught by the pants by me diving).

It depends what kind of responsibilities you have, your age and what you are happy with in your life. I know genius guys who are microchip architects ( they design gaming chips) who smoke occasionally. I also know a guy in his 40's who still acts the same way he did in his 20's. Lives like a bum, barely works,, stoned 24/7,, but happy. Should spend some of that weed money on a dentist though...

It's all about what you are happy with.

To be good is not enough when you dream of being great.
