welcome to the cannabinews network- thisis the news roll up. we just got back from a episode with lisa kaler from the fourtwenty times you interviewed cisco adler the expendables and iration yes click onthe link above to get to see those interviews just so you know coor's light did not sponsor it- it was very much cisco adler's is forced contractual necessity to put that can in his hand at
and i don't think we're gonna blur it, we'll see what coors light has to say anyways this is my friend lisa kaler and my buddyhenrik larsson the actor - the swede this is out allen fradkin the generalmanager of perennial holistic and erica adamson and you'd see her at eabraid at youtube. we have a very special segment today we'regoing to be discussing with alan vaporizors versus the pipe versus the joint versus the bong- if you'reafraid of trying to cannabis
you're not sure it will work for you- you don't wanna smokea joint - your longs are irritated you have respiratory issues- this is the way to go alan -take it away. show us what you've brought. so i'm gonna explain the basics of how avaporizer works and why as a vaporizer works and i do this all the time for the patients atperennial and that's something we think everyone should have access toit's important to understand the difference between vaporization and combustion and as youcan see
in the pipe the combustion leaves a black ash black white grey ash it iscompletely consumed and you're getting all other carcinogens whereas on the leavings of the vaporizer itsalmost toasted in brown a the bud is not consumed and all that stuff you can conceive as whatnever made it into your lungs that's just a visual representation lovethat ninety-five (ish) percent drop in carcinogens whenyou the vaporize as opposed to smoke the first thing about vaporizers is youneed a grinnder and
this is a great one this is athree-stage grinder it does all kinds of fancy stuff for youdon't need one like that but you can't just put up a nut in your the vaporizer here it won't work you need to expose all the surface areato that hot air heat energy so that a you can get into all the nooksand crannies get all their potency out of the buds.what you want to do is taken off the stem and put it aroundthe center so that everything is on a part of thegrinder that's gonna
rotate relative to the teeth and thatonce you have that done you world put the rest of thegrinder together and actually if you grounded upside downyou get a finer surface area if you grind down because it won't fall through theseholes when it gets to that size so once yougrind it will all collect in the bottom of the grinder. ok and that's what you wanna put insideyour vaporizer so i load the vaporizer with not too tight
but enough to fill it and still let airpass through and put into the vaporizer i'm using the airisersolo right now which as provided by gotvape dot comand i really like these guys they take great care tomake sure that they carry the vaporizers made out of the that right materials to a handle thetemperatures at which these reactions happen so i setthe vaporizer to the proper temperature it'sactually hitting up right now and vaporizers will
get your herb the desired effect rightaround 375 degrees fahrenheit is right about when vapor happensgive or take some people will set their digitalvaporizers to vastly different temperatures and that's just about the relationshipbetween the bowl and the heat element so there is a there is a variance as faras what your digital readout may say you wanna go by results and what works best for you andwhen you were when you draw a long consistent breathafter
one or two pulls to get the bowl caughtup to the temperature of the heat element you should get vapor the first rip always tastes the best.it's pretty cool is it possible to make your vaporizer toohot? yes you can and you don't want to do thatever really because if the bowl is on fire in thenyou're going to have smoke resin as opposed to vaporizer resin in yourvaporizer and that taste much worse it's muchdirtier and harder to clean and that's the stuff that puts all thecarcinogens in your lungs - as opposed to
the vapor which doesn't so i actually maintainancing your vaporizersovertime is much easier than pipes and you get much longer in between maintenances. so the user of a vaporizer should use their judgment; that if theyhave really wet product they should use clearly a highertemperature to try to vaporize it. or if they have a dryer product, use a lower temperatureto try to avoid that combustion within the vaporizer. actually that's amisconception the
the vapor reactions happen at the sametemperature range however a wetter herb or fresher herb however you wanna say itmight take longer to preheat it may take a minute to zap themoisture out so it may take you more rips before you actually get what what'sgoing to be good vapor. you may need to preheat your vaporizor by just drawing air through it. thanks yeah if you do go the route ofsetting your vaporizer to a higher temperature to compensate for that wetness
what you'll get right away is somethingclose to the desired effect but as you go longer into the bowl. t'll probablybecome a little bit harsh should people invest, should peopleinvest in a in the volcano vaporizers? that cost about seven hundred bucks comes with the giant bag and it's just this contraption that sits... is it worth it to invest in one ofthose? or should we keep it simple and spend $200- $250 on something likethat? what would be your...
your suggestion... good question. at perennial i prefer to keep it simple with just two really easy to use modelshowever if you really really love vapor and wannamake the extra investment the volcano's a great machine. i'veused before and love it a its very expensive in and you will eventually make your money backwith vapor because you're gonna burn through alittle less is and that the effect is more concentrated
but it's really up to you and what yourown priorities are as far as so what what machine you wannago with. they always say that everything should be done with modesty. so is there such thing as too much vapor, or can you still pretty much do it at will. absolutely a just like you can smoke toomuch and put yourself to sleep you can vaporize too much in for yourself tosleep in and actually a takes less herb if you're doing itcorrectly to get there a if you were to translate one-for-onethe amount of weed you smoke in a
pipe you might actually find yourself taking a nap so i would i would start small the ball onthe air riser is that big and one ball is packs i would say the punch of one of those shorts right there so put that into perspective. that's howvaporizers work so that very interesting, you can getmore information gotvape.com he has
whole bunch of vaporizers. click the link on check them out! you guys have questions for alan and the the timing it takes for the effect... the medincinal effect that you're looking for when you're vaporizing can be a much different effect and timing and also the effect of smoking is really your body is reacting to thesmoke. i'm glad you bring that up the time frame in which themedicinal effect comes on is different from combustion andvaporization. some people would describe
the way vapor works is sorta creeping up onyou but it does come on more gradually andthat's probably because it takes a little longer to vaporize your bowl. you have to cover all over thesurface area above that ground herb before you get the maximum efficiency whereas when you smoke it you actuallycan consume it very rapidly to to get everything all at once so that should explain the the discrepancy inhow they affect comes on and why some people say vapor is a acreeper if you will
and this is what i'm wondering about too what is the cost? what is the cost comparison to smoking that and your pipe? (good question) well if you put it that way there's abig difference actually because with the because the concentrated affect of the vapor as opposed tosmoke there's a big difference and when you vaporize to feel the medicinal effect it actually takes about
between a third and half of the flower by weight to get to the same place. so patients who vaporize will end up saving the money in the long run. you actually save money? oh yeah you're gonna go through, you'regonna cut your herb consumption in half to get to the same place otherwiseyou'll be getting twice as high. that's why the bowl on this thing is so small what are the not so obvious health benefits to vaporizing? for instance when you smoke out of like
papers or blunts - it's bad to smoke the byproduct yeah so i wanna hear, what are other healthbenefits to vaping and stuff? well aside from the the straightforward ones which isthe lack of carcinogens from the smoke and the decreased amount ofheat irritation from the fact that all this happens at lower temperaturesoverall there's an interesting one that mostpeople don't talk about and that's that cannabis has expectorantproperties i'm sure you've all heard of mucinex.
that's how it goes. well cannabinoids work the same way. that'swhy you get productive coughs and phlegm comes up after you smoke it's actually why a cannabis smoke has a lower incidenceof causing lung cancers because there is a balance between the harmful inflow and any productive outflow with vapor, with vapor on the other handthere's virtually no inflow because 95 percent of those carcinogens are nolonger in the picture
and because the cannabinoids areconcentrated the expectorant outflows much stronger so you're actually clearing out yourrespiratory system in effect in vaporization verses smoking? oh yeah yeah oh yeah and a lot of peoplewill describe hacking stuff up and andclearing out and being able to breathe much better afterwards which most people confuse as a side effect- they think of it as a negative side effect that they start coughing and hacking so much is actually beneficial
well as early if you're smokingthen you could be on the wrong side of the balance but we're if you'revaporizing then yes it is a much more beneficial cough and its probably gonna reduce over time as opposed toincrease. personally i you went from the bongs to thevaporizer and found that i breathe much easier now alot of that nasty lung butter came outand never went back so quickly these run what?this one's about a hundred bucks? this ine's about two
hundred dollars? and they range in price anywhere from asmaller sixty five or seventy dollars to a couple hundred dollars for a bigone? you're looking at the two hundred and up range from portables and the 100 ish range for stationeries. and thenagain there's all kinds of intricate stuff out there for you don't need a doctors reccomendation for this either- anyone can buy this if you have a relative that uses cannabis in a legal state... get them one of these! it will
help them. so much! i'm sam humeid from cannabinews- these are my friends! we will be back next time with some more breaking information relevant to cannabis industry and relevant to you and until then... roll up a joint and smoke it!
