Like many new smokers, you probably aren't inhaling right. If your exhaling smoke your doing it right most likely - remember to smoke like sucking a straw, not too hard and not too soft however.

Keep trying, often the newbies to marijuana don't get high their 1st, 2nd or even 3rd time. Perhaps you are not smoking enough or you should try and acquire danker nugs. Enjoy and welcome to the forum.

I never used to get high either... I feel your pain


You have to inhale your weed good. If you are smoking a bowl you should light around the edges (not the middle) of ur pile and continue this until u feel a slight tingle. Keep pulling and if you lit the weed right you'll be in business. You throat might hurt but try not to cough (as this will shoot weed all over the place). Then stop inhailing and DONT exhale...take a huge breath afterwards to fill your lungs so you have a mixture of good smoke and fresh air and hold it for a few seconds. Let it out and you should see a big breath of smoke. If you are smoking blunts/joints/spliffs..etc etc you need to take big puffs and take in air afterwards as well

I was the same way as you when I started. I thought weed just didn't really effect me. One night my friend pulled up to my apartment and said lets go. Drove me out to his friends house who explained how to take hits the right way. Needless to say I got so high I passed out that night with the bowl in my hand and the world didnt even make sense (not that I gave a shit about anything). That was my first time high but maybe my 5th time smoking. Just keep at it. Puff the damn thing till you cough if you have to

Try bongs if you can get your hand on one

One thing I've heard you can try is inhaling without the pipe and just bringing the pipe
to your mouth while you are inhaling. Also like Zilve said inhale more air after you take
your hit.

thanks guys, i have another question too though. How do you pack a bowl. I just stick a nug in the thing. Is that right or are you supposed to tear it apart. My buddies usually cut it up into pieces.

Cutting it up makes it burn better.
