There’s got to be some technology that does this. No sploofs!

Currently i crack a window, put a small square fan in it, and blow my exhaust through the fan. I use a vaporizer which cuts down the smell a lot, but there is still a lingering odor the night of, and sometimes the following morning.

I would prefer no odor at all, immediately. Any help is appreciated.

    There’s no way of avoiding it. Regular weed smokers think they don’t stink of it when they do, so you’re not going to get helpful advice from the smoking community. Smoke outside to avoid a lingering smell in your home. But your hair, skin, clothes (and breath if you’re slack on oral hygiene like most smokers) will still smell of weed. Stick to edibles if you don’t want to smell like a teenager.

    Vaporizing, while not orderless, has significantly less scent that disapates much faster than traditional combustion

    When I vaporize, the smell doesn’t last very long. Not sure what kind of weed or vaporizer you use though.

    I’ve never tried it, but I heard good things about Smoke Buddy

      Using smoke buddy while vaping actually does help. Roommate that doesn’t smoke or vape says they never smell anything.

      Can vouch for smoke buddies. Not a bad price and works better than a makeshift sploof. Not bulletproof but works well enough.

      Cooking can be pretty darn dank. There was this time someone at my dorm tried to make ‘weed butter’, and the whole second floor smelled like weed. It was one of the strongest smells I’ve smelled in my life, even though I was far from the chefs.

      I wonder if there are cooking methods that aren’t as dank…

      Although, to be fair, eating an already-cooked edible will probably not smell. I guess this is what you mean, Calhoon2005.

    I have a “man cave” in my garage as it is too small for my car. Comfy chairs, 200Mb Internet, tablet, table, heater. Indoors never smells.

      Same here, they’re way more convenient than flower, imo. Often stronger, too. It’s just really nice being able to take a quick hit wherever I am without bothering people around me with the smell. And my landlord stays none the wiser.

        I went from spending like $150/week on flower to spending that much in 2 months by switching to concentrates (and they are super cheap too; I went today with $100 and only spent half that getting the maximum I am allowed a day). A single cart can last me for a week. It doesn’t feel as social so it’s not something I share (especially after COVID) like flower, and a single hit can last way longer than a few bowls.

        The lack of odor is just a nifty little bonus for me, since it doesn’t seem to matter where I live (every unit around me smokes weed lol). Actually been kinda missing the smell of the plant tho. I smell my neighbors coming out or on their balconies and I just want a good old fashion blunt again.

    There’s honestly no way to. It sticks to everything. Eventually you become noseblind to it, but if your goal is to hide the smell from others, there’s no option but to smoke outdoors, and even then it still sticks to your clothes, hair, etc.

    Just stick with edibles. They’re healthier for you anyways.

    To make a vape smell even less, filter through a water pipe, but also, it’s still going to smell, light a candle, get deodorizers.

    Is you are someplace it is legal you can buy concentrates, eg: live rosin, which relativity smell like nothing. I vaporized weed for years; whatever room you are vaping in will smell like vaped weed. The best you can do is keep it to one room. With concentrates someone will only smell them if you open a container and bring it to their nose, or if they walk through your exhale. I use a an e-coil and a banger, the alternatives are to use a butane torch or a e-cig typle device.

      This also depends on the concentrate. My coworker at my old job almost got caught vaping a cartridge of live rosin bc it ended up sticking up the bathroom.

    If you have a split AC unit you can put activated carbon mat on top of the inside unit where it takes in air. Clears all smell from inside that room especially if it’s a small space. You could probably make a similar contraption with a box fan.

    I have a friend who used to stuff dryer sheets in a paper towel roll and blow out through that. Believe it or not, it actually helped.

      This honestly just makes the room smell like dryer sheet flavored weed smoke though. Might mask the smell a tiny bit but isn’t fooling anyone.

    Why no sploofs? College years was all about towel on the bottom of the door and a sploof. We didnt have windows that opened but got through it fine

      They also take longer to take effect and are harder to control the effect of as a result.
