Bongs are water pipes typically used to smoke cannabis, tobacco, or other herbs. They come in all shapes and sizes and a huge variety is available in the market. The glass bong has been a popular choice for many years because it is inexpensive, durable, effective, easy to clean and maintain, can filter the smoke from harmful substances like tar and ash, which means that you get amazingly pure smoke. This article will explore choosing a bong for different smoking needs and preferences.
Size Matters
Bongs glass pipes come in all shapes and sizes. The size of the bong may be small, medium, or large. Small-sized bongs tend to be portable, while large-sized ones are typically more durable and may have a bowl and a downstem/carb. The height of the bong should not be above six inches as it might block the smoke from getting to your lungs and throat, causing you to cough to get it out. Also, avoid buying a bong with too many holes poked into the bottom because it will create openings for water splashes, making cleaning up difficult.
Downstem Versus Bowl
The downstem is the thin tube that connects the bowl to the water in the bong. It filters and cools down the smoke before it reaches you. The bowl is where you place your herbs and load them with tobacco before smoking. If you’re looking for a bong with a bowl, make sure it is large enough to carry plenty of tobacco without blocking any holes in the bong. For example, if you’re using a smaller glass bong and your bowl blocks one or more holes at the bottom, all the water will be pushed out of it when inhaling through its mouthpiece.
Sharing Can Be A Good Thing For Many Reasons
Many people prefer bongs because they are used for smoke-out parties. This means that you and your friends would need to share a bong, which makes it better than buying one for yourself. Remember to pick a bong from a reputable dealer or manufacturer because this way, you can ensure that your bong will be of high quality and will guarantee long-lasting performance.
You should also consider choosing a glass bong if you plan on visiting places where tobacco or marijuana is prohibited. You may have the option of taking it with you without having to worry about being questioned by law enforcement officials.
