I have been looking into dry herb vaping as a reusable some what healthy way to consume trees but I have seen some mixed reviews. Some say that vaping is even more potent that combustion while others claim that most dry herb vapes suck and only giant ball vapes can compare to a bong hit. Is it purely subjective or are there ways to figure out what is a worth while rig before buying it?

    My own experience has been wax pens and edibles. I was watching this youtube guy called Cewpins complain about dry herb vapes. He claimed he couldnt get as high as when he used a combustion bong.

      No hate on that dude or anything, but that just fundamentally doesn’t add up on a physics and chemistry level.

      Few scenarios where someone might feel that way: They maybe using a different amount of product or a different product entirely in each delivery method.

      They maybe incorrectly using the dry herb vaporizer.

      They maybe just prefer the dirtier high, due to the flash combustion of the material releasing CO and PAH. It may also destroy some terpens and canabinoids in the combustion process.
