Estimate using a good quality 20% THC weed of your choice (stronger if you wish)
When you take a hit that you can comfortbaly hold 2 seconds and expell, how much THC hits your blood stream?
Is it different between joint, pipe, bong, vape?

My supposition, based soley upon how I feel after 1, 2, 3 and 4 hits on a vape (390 degrees) that each hit meeting the above description is about 3 mg THC.

I’d be curious if there are any studies?
I’d also be interested in how differently consumed THC gets into the system versus inhalation?

I know I can eat a 100mg gummy without a second thought, I feel a strong come on about 90 minutes after eating the first one but I couldn’t compare it to inhaled. I imagine theres a peak of about 10 or 20 mg at come on which slowly declines over the course of about 5 hours. Much longer duration when eaten but there’s no way I could think about taking a 100 mg hit! Or even session, that’s nuts. If I can tolerate 20 or 30 mg inhaled, thats tops before my lungs give out!

Ramblings of a mad man ^ right there!

Different organs process it differently.

Can say it's definitely different between smoking methods, wether a joint, blunt, a glass pipe bowl, or a Bong/bowl?
One delivers in sequences, one delivers all at once.

And what does the water absorb that your lungs dont?

surface area beats a roll up-s surface area.

Good question, studies are scarce.
