CAN YOU BEAT CANNABIS TOLERANCE

Hi I know very little about cannabis and Hash and was just wondering if someone can educate me about building a tolerance to its effects. Some people seem to be able to smoke the same amount everyday and not become tolerant to the high where as others need to take regular breaks to reach the state they like.
Why is it some people can smoke as much as they like and still get high? Is it because they are simply smoking a better product ? And do you think hash can beat tolerance ?.

If any everyday smokers have any advice i be grateful. I normally use a vaporizer the SSV. My friend reckons its all in my head lol, and I hate taking breaks. Much appreciated.

I agree with this, also there are levels of tolerances, if you wait 3 months inbetween you can easily get so blasted you can't function properly, if you only smoke weekly it can still be hard to be socially and if you smoke once daily and tiny amounts you won't be able to keep up with heavier smokers without going through the roof. If you smoke a lot from the mornings I feel the only real buzz is the first hour and the rest of the day is just getting more wasted.

I think a lot of the smoking habit has to do with keeping your tolerance high enough so you can outsmoke your buddies :laughing:

do you think tolerance is in the mind ?. Some strains that you read about from the 70s apparently had no ceiling. They kept getting higher with every toke. Would love to know the science as to why.

If i smoke top much indica and try watch a movie i often just wake up to the ending screen so i try not to smoke. More than 1 gram on my vapo in 1 Day. . ( i smokes the same indica for 4 years) and never really came over 1 .5 gram Per Day.

Other types of weed i Can keep smoke and smoke . Without getting higher. .. So i guess Its the weed people has and Like to smoke..

Try body detoxification on a daily basis.

I detoxify everyday and 7 years of every day smoking 1-2+ grams a day my tolerance is really low for the most part. 1/4 to 1/2 a joint always gets me to where I need to be.

Spend your days sober, and your tolerance never gets above a certain level. Just wait until after work to get high. I've only seen my tolerance really get up there when I wake and bake and try to stay high all day every day.

Concentrates definitely work if you can't get as high as you want from bud. That still raises your tolerance if you do it all day every day. Concentrates stop working as well too at some point. It's healthy to have some sober time every day unless you have a medical need for round the clock dosing. Just my opinion.

I will say some herbs are cheap/weak, and don't really work you up

if I can smoke a joint of something, after having smoked a joint of it, then it's not really getting me high. It does but... I know that when I smoke some stuff, and I put out the joint, then that stuff is bomb.

i agree with what has been said - having a couple of different strains helps and wake&bake all day every day is surely going to fuck up your tolerance.

i've been smoking daily for years and don't have a big tolerance, but i only use as little as absolutely necessary in each round. i found that using more than is needed is the fastest way to jack up your tolerance.

so my suggestion is to find the lowest amount of weed you need and not to over-dose.

When i was smoking 24/7, there was not even any good reason to smoke, it was just a habit.

First hit in the morning was only time when i really felt being high, lasted 1 hour mostly, rest of the day i did not even remember i was high. Total waste.

Fingerhash/charas i once had was the only stuff that got me really baked that time.

i get insanely high every most every day, there are several ways to make this happen

you have to understand the nature of the receptors

one is to smoke as little as possible to get high and in this way your receptors will be more readily accessible, there really is a huge less more facet to the use of marijuana

there is a law of declining returns as you use more but strain, variety, concentration and volume can over come the declining returns and often is

Is that from smoking or vaping ? I ask because would vaping not burn out the receptors more quickly than smoking. Also do you do this throughout the day ?
