Cannabis pipes, bongs, rigs, water pipes, and bubblers.
Cannabis pipes, bongs, rigs, water pipes, and bubblers are all devices used for smoking cannabis. However, each type of device has its own unique features and design. Here are some of the key differences between these devices:
Pipes: Pipes are the simplest type of smoking device and consist of a bowl, stem, and mouthpiece. They can be made from various materials including glass, metal, and wood. Pipes are portable and easy to use, making them a popular choice for many cannabis smokers.
Bongs: Bongs are similar to pipes but contain a water chamber that cools and filters the smoke before it is inhaled. Bongs can range in size from small tabletop models to large, elaborate pieces. Bongs are available in a variety of materials including glass, ceramic, and silicone.
Rigs: Rigs are similar to bongs, but are specifically designed for use with concentrates. Rigs typically have a nail or banger instead of a bowl to hold the concentrate and a heating element, usually a blowtorch, is required to heat the nail.
Water Pipes: Water pipes, also known as hookahs, are large smoking devices that consist of a base filled with water, a bowl to hold the cannabis, a stem that extends into the water, and a mouthpiece. The smoke is filtered through the water before being inhaled, which helps to cool and smooth the smoke.
Bubblers: Bubblers are smaller versions of bongs that have a water chamber and are designed for portability. Bubblers often have a round or elliptical shape and are made from glass or silicone. The water in the chamber helps to cool and filter the smoke, producing a smoother and cooler hit than a pipe.
Each of these smoking devices has its own unique features and benefits, and the choice of which one to use will often come down to personal preference, experience, and intended use.
Here is a list of the most common cannabis smoking devices:
Joints: Rolled with rolling papers, joints are perhaps the most traditional way to smoke cannabis.
Blunts: Similar to joints, but rolled with cigar wraps instead of papers, blunts are known for their strong, rich flavor.
Bongs: A water pipe that filters smoke through water to cool it down before inhaling. Bongs come in many shapes, sizes and materials.
Pipes: A simple, handheld device made of glass, metal, or other materials, used to smoke cannabis.
Vaporizers: A device that heats cannabis to a temperature just below combustion, producing vapor instead of smoke.
Dab Rigs: A specialized type of water pipe used for smoking concentrates or “dabs.”
One-hitters: Small, portable pipes that are designed to fit just enough cannabis for one hit.
Chillums: Similar to one-hitters, but with a straight design, chillums are commonly used for on-the-go smoking.
Hookahs: A traditional water pipe originating from the Middle East, used to smoke flavored tobacco or cannabis.
This list is not exhaustive, and there are many other types of cannabis smoking devices available on the market today.
