How to get higher with Medicinal Marijuana

Many chronic condition sufferers have been using Medicinal Marijuana for quite some time now, but there are a good number of patients that do no know how to use their medicine to its maximum efficiency. I have some methods I have learned myself worth sharing with the medicinal community.

1. Water temp - I am sure that like myself you have used or at least heard of a water pipe(bong) and know how they work. Many people will tell you as I was first told to use cold or ice cold water in order to get a smoother smoke out of your water pipe. This seems to be the case and leads to less coughing, but it has a negative effect on your medicine. In truth, if you instead use hot water fresh from the tap, the hot water will help activate the THC as it flows through the water and will result in a much stronger medicinal effect from the same amount of medicine. A very effective variation of this would be to have hot water in the bottom, and an ice holder above to cool the warm smoke down after the water. This requires good quality glass to take 2 different temps and this should only be attempted at your own risk.

2. Vaporizer - Perhaps the most effective use of medicine is obtained by using a vaporizer. These machines will heat marijuana to the point right before combustion, causing the medicine in the plant to be released without the negative effects of the smoke on your health. This method can range from around $25- hundreds of dollars depending on the type and quality of the vaporizer.
