What to Look for When Buying a Pipe

Cannabis pipes come in an array of different shapes, sizes, and colors meaning smokers have their choice of gear. Whether you prefer to opt for a decorative character or a discreet mini pipe, the possibilities are endless. As your trusted dispensary in Perris, Strains Dispensary not only offers high quality cannabis and gear, but our team is here to help you find the perfect fit.

3 Tips For Buying the Right Cannabis Pipe

 

1. Material

The first step to finding the right pipe is choosing the right material. We tend to recommend that you choose a glass pipe for the best smoking experience. Due to its density, glass will not overheat in your hand, allowing you to comfortably hold it as you smoke. Additionally, glass is a non-porous meaning it will not affect the taste of your cannabis nor will any heated glass particles get into your smoke.

2. Bowl Size

The size of the bowl will determine how quickly you burn through cannabis and how frequently you will need to repack. If you prefer longer sessions or smoke with others you will need a larger bowl. However, if you smoke by yourself or prefer shorter smoke breaks, a smaller bowl will get the job done.

3. Shape

When choosing a pipe, you will want to find something that is comfortable to hold. We encourage you to try out different shapes and sizes to see where you can properly cover the hole.

How to Pack a Bowl

How to Pack a Bowl

Packing the proper bowl ensures you get the best smoking experience. No matter if you and your friends are lighting up over a bong or you having a solo pipe session, you will want to ensure the bowl is packed correctly. While the process of packing a bowl is simple, it is vital you get it right. The team at Strains Dispensary is here to help you learn how to properly load your rig for an enjoyable experience. 

Steps to Load a Glass Smoking Bowl

Before loading the bowl, you will need to grab your preferred bud, grinder, a pipe or bong, and a lighter. If you need any of the supplies, be sure to head over to Strains Dispensary and our team will help you find the right gear!

Once you have everything gathered, you are ready to load your bowl, follow these steps:

  1. Place a medium-sized weed nugget into the grinder. Grind until you have smaller pieces. 
  2. Next, you will place the ground weed into the bowl.
  3. Gently tap the weed so that it compacts together.
  4. For a more significant high, you will load the bowl about halfway full. For a less potent smoke, you will load less. 
  5. To smoke, light the corner of the bowl, removing the flame when the weed catches. 

Lighting the corner of the bowl and packing the bud tightly helps you make the most of your weed. When the flame goes out, simply relight another section. After you are done smoking be sure to ash and clean the bowl.
