The most efficient way to smoke weed. Fully releases all of the THC from the weed, saving your lungs from the abuse of J's, spliffs, and blunts. You will exhale a white, ODORLESS vapor, making toking up at home and in a standard college dorm room much less risky. Gets you more high off less weed, pays for itself.

A device used to heat up marijuana buds (around 390-something degrees F) to the point where the material (including the THC, Cbd/cbn, etc.) is a vapor form. Usually, the vapor is held in longer than smoke, somewhere between 15-30 seconds. Also, the vapor is drawn slower than smoke is inhaled, for about the same time as it is held in the lungs.
There are various types of vaporizers, the most efficient being the heat convection types, which pass heat through the material rather than heat it up. Dome vaporizers, which usually consist of a brass bowl and a plastic or glass dome, and a suction tube, are considered by different studies to be less efficient and possibly harmful. Unfortunately, the most efficient vaporizers tend to be the most expensive.

The act of inhaling and exhaling from an electronic cigarette. A better definition of vaporing through an electronic cigarette rather than "smoking". It would not make any sense if someone said they were smoking an electronic cigarette as they generate water vapor.
I was vaporing outside the bar to avoid annoying the hell out of the drunkards and bouncers with the fog getting in their way.
"John: I feel like meh. I don't feel like smoking either. Especially when I quit. I would smoke if it didn't have the harmful substances.
Tom:Really? I'll be vaporing my e-cig and you can sit here contemplating the usual.
John:Hey! Can I try it? Finally something better than those cancer sticks!"
