A Hotboxing Guide
Hotboxing is an incredibly effective activity that is designed to help you and your friends get the most out of a smoking session. It's one of my favorite things to do in a group of smokers as the whole process can be absolutely hilarious, although it's important to note that there are some risks involved. Before I go any further, I would firstly like to say that hotboxing, while fun, involves oxygen deprivation – this is nothing to joke about.
So please, before you try this activity, make sure everybody's feeling okay first and knows they can leave if they need to. Always take care of your friends.
Now, without further ado, here's a stoners guide to hotboxing:
What is hotboxing?
It's pretty simple really. Essentially, hotboxing involves smoking marijuana in a small, enclosed space (like a bathroom, or a tent) so that the smoke is able to fill the entire area. the result of this is pretty amazing, allowing a whole group of people to get high from what is pretty much just passive smoke.
Doing it properly
The first and most important thing to think about when you're planning a hotbox session is the location of the whole thing. First off, do you have permission?? One of the worst things I can think of is hotboxing a friend's bathroom without permission and one of their parents walking in or something. Trust me, you don't want that. You should also take space into consideration, will there be enough room for everyone? Plan these things out in advance.
What should be included?
Obviously, a chilled-out group of experienced smokers is ideal – the last thing you want is somebody being out of their depth and freaking out. Make sure you invite people with a positive and optimistic attitude. Incorporating snacks is a cool idea too, maybe ask everyone to bring something different and you could have a big stoner banquet. Of course, junk food is a must, but the fruit tastes surprisingly amazing when you're baked, so maybe opt for some bananas or peaches too.
What is Hawaiian Hotboxing?
Whether Hawaiian or Jamaican, hotboxing is similar. In short, Hawaiian hotboxing is when an individual or a group of friends sit together to smoke cannabis from an enclosed place usually a bathroom with a hot shower, which makes the small enclosure more foggy and humid, the two things that spice up the high feeling of smoking weed.
Can you hotbox with a vape?
Absolutely! It is possible to smoke weed using a vape. If you have never used an electronic vaporizer it is high time you tried to enjoy your cannabis using this gadget.
Remember, modern electronic cigars have the ability to turn whatever liquid weed into vapor within a few minutes thus making the potency secondhand smoke much higher. Because of this, you should be rest assured that it is possible to conduct a hotbox using a vape.
How to get rid of the smell after hotboxing
While smoking weed is a joyful activity that many of us fancy, the challenge is when you want to get rid of the smell after hotboxing. The small and enclosed structure, car, or cubicle is meant to increase secondhand high smoke concentration to reach all in the room whether you take part in the primary smoking or not. Besides, it helps prevent the escape of weed smoke.
However, there comes a time you want to get rid of the smell. There are many ingenious ways to do this but not all these ways produce the same results. Some methods are effective but take long while others offer mild effects thus if you have ever smoked weed, you will always smell it hours after the activity.
One of the ingenious ways is to apply a freshener in the room. Although a freshener will be effective, it will not be as effective as natural air. Therefore, after you have finished your Hawaiian hotboxing ordeal, open the door and the windows of your bathroom.
Using the same hot water that gave you the needed steam before you started the exercise, turn it on and let water flow for some minutes. Open the doors and the windows wide as the water flows. Pressure water does better. Introducing a fun in the car or room can also work.
Chewing mint gums can also help your mouth smell fresh. Changing your clothes and taking a bath is another exceptional way to get rid of smell after smoking weed.
As always, stay safe, and happy smoking ☺
Can you touch cannabis seeds?
When you buy weed seeds for the first time, you may be wondering if you can touch the seeds with your bare hands. After all, they are very vulnerable, right? And there could be a risk of contamination in some way? So it's not a strange question to ask yourself whether you can grab those small, precious seeds with your bare hands. Opinions vary, but why would you want to take the risk?
It is always possible that a marijuana seed will not germinate, and the question rises what the reason is. The bad genetics of the seed are usually blamed. Most people will instantly say that the seed must be of very poor quality. But the gardener who lets the seed germinate and touches it without gloves or tweezers also has an influence. That is at least the opinion of many professional growers. Read on and learn more about this topic. What are the risks with germination? And what is the best way to handle your fragile cannabis seeds? Let's find out!
Germination power
Our hands and fingers are covered with oils and bacteria. Even if you wash your hands a hundred times a day, there will always be bacteria present again soon after every time you disinfect your hands. You don't see it, but if you touch a weed seed, you will leave your mark. Usually that is fine and the seed will germinate. But if you leave the seed for a long time, the bacteria and esoteric oils you have left on it can undermine the germinative power of the seed. Ultimately, that can result in a seed not sprouting. The chance of that is small, but it is present.
Touching seeds is a risk
There will be many growers who consider this nonsense. And most breeders will just touch seeds with their bare hands. But in addition to cannabis growers, there are many more people who are also professionally involved with seeds, such as botanists and biologists. These professionals are generally of the opinion that the traces you leave behind on a seed can indeed have an effect on the germination process and the growth cycle that follows.
See, there are many, many cases in which fortunately there is no problem. These are all situations in which a grower simply takes the seeds out of the bag with his bare hands, lets it germinate, and then puts it in the soil, or any other growing medium. All with bare hands. The seed simply germinates as if nothing is wrong. And the plant grows into a healthy shrub with beautiful flower tops. But on the other hand you have growers who prefer not to take the risk and also have a scientific basis for this.
There is indeed evidence that touching a seed with your bare hands carries a risk. So what should you do now? You will probably get away with it if you do not store the seed for long. If you let it germinate immediately, there is probably no problem. The risk, however, becomes greater the longer you store the seed before you let it germinate. The longer you keep it, the longer the esoteric oils have the chance to influence and reduce the quality of the seed. Many believe there is certainly a risk that the seed will not germinate, or that the plant appears to be weak. That would be too bad, wouldn't it? So why take the risk?
Use tweezers
Although this whole story would be based on a myth, and none of it is true, it is still always better not to keep your seeds for too long, but to allow them to germinate within a shorter time. Opinions on this subject clearly differ. But since there are a lot of professionals who say there is a risk that you could harm the product in some way, why should you take that risk? A simple solution is to use tweezers when handling weed seeds. With tweezers, you can work neatly and precisely and you are sure that you will not leave any traces that can affect the quality of your seed.
Stick to our grow guides

This keeps the cultivation your own cannabis plants fun and your whole growing adventure will certainly grow into a big success. And that's exactly why you started it in the first place, right?
