Going to Oregon to meet some friends for a few days. They don’t smoke at all but are curious and willing to imbibe a bit. I have previously gotten them edibles (Federally Legal Delta 9) but want to introduce them to some smoking as well if they are interested. I also want to get a little fucked up in a legal state.
What should I be looking for at the dispensary? I dry herb vape my black market flower down here, but I am not gonna try to get my vape through TSA.
Should I try to buy a cheap bong up there? Never used one, but I hate joints, they make my lungs burn and I cough more than I inhale.
Should I just stick with edibles? I also kind of want to try RSO but not sure I want to get THAT fucked up. I enjoy doing high doses by myself but I won’t have an opportunity to be alone on this trip.

hey, I live in Portland, if you’re going to be here i’d recommend getting an inexpensive glass piece to leave with your friends, then try a few different strains in 1g increments.
edibles and carts are fine too, but I’m definitely more of a flower guy. I use a flower vape as well, but I’m not sure I s recommend getting a cheap one even if you can find one.
If it was me I’d grab a live rosin cart with a battery built in, and some 5 or 10 mg edibles.
That way you don’t have to buy a battery, bowl, or bong. Carts are easy to use for beginners. Live rosin combined with some edibles should get you to the level you want to go to. And you can always go back and buy more if you need to.
Pre rolled joints might be better than whatever home roll you’ve had, and can be quite cheap (just bought a couple for $2 each yesterday, each a gram). You could also buy some flower and a bowl, probably the cheapest option if you want to smoke loose flower.
Edibles are also a decent option, they should be good and cheap. Bought a 200 mg pack of 5mg gummies for like $5 yesterday. Just keep an eye out of sales
I am in MI though so ymmv
I have only ever tried pre-rolls from dispensaries in california. Never tried myself. Could I be smoking them wrong or do I need to burn in my lungs? Glass bowls are a little similar too.
Do disposable vapes exist?I mean memory is just an illusion to account for discrepancies in the present but I’m pretty sure yes
You might be sucking too hard, or inhaling too deeply? Maybe try taking smaller hits, just little sips until your throat and lungs are more accustomed to it
Pre rolls or a disposable vape pens work really well when traveling. Could also buy a cheap bubbler as a “gift” for them since they’re small and generally really fun to smoke from.
I wish renting vapes were possible lol, there’s a lot of cheap weed available in some cities ($1-3/g) that can actually be decent so it’s easy to get a lot for cheap.
If you have the budget for a spare vaporizer that would probably be your best bet for flavor and ease on the throat. You can also get some cheap glass at a lot of places and have a little pocket bubbler with the vape (just make sure it’s 14mm female or have an adapter! I usually use a bit of silicone tube)
Edibles here are pretty cheap too sometimes, though they personally don’t hit me and they’ll all 100mg max.
Finally - I’ve flown with multiple vaporizers! I’m not sure which you have, but if you’re able to disassemble most of it or remove the batteries and keep them separated in the device. Cleaning the bowl and mouthpiece with isopropyl alcohol and getting it to its “factory” state effectively turns it into any regular old aromatherapy/tobacco vaporizer.
General rule of thumb I use is self-contained, declared, and carried on. I put any accessories (mouthpieces, all batteries, etc) and the vaporizer body disassembled and in a pelican case. I take it on carry-on, let them know the batteries are internal or removed, and then they usually open it and inspect it taking every piece out looking at it and then putting it back and I’m on my way. Hardly takes any more time than usual TSA! That said, I can’t speak to how this is for non-legal states. I assume dry herb vapes are just dry herb vapes, but ymmv and I understand not taking the risk on money and time.
So you actually want tips for first time smokers, not non-smokers?
If you want actual tips for non-smokers, my advice is to respect their choice and shut the fuck up about trying to get them high.
Yeah first time smokers. I am not pushing any of them, they have expressed interest but are fearful of their first time so want to allow them to experiment and decide if they want to continue on their own or not.
