Solar Tokes, Everyone Should Try Them, Post Creative Tokes

Tried this a few times this week and its the chillest and best thing to do/try. Get yourself a magnifying glass go outside with a pipe/bong/bubbler and have your bud grinded in your bowl and focus the magnifying glass rays to make a small ray that will light your bowl, just gotta focus the rays to get it to the hottest possible, and when its hot outside it works better, try it out, its the smoothest tokes i've ever taken

Ya it looks neat always wanted to try-did you notice a taste difference with such methods?

Lol what a creative way to light your bowl! My futon is nowhere near my windows though so I'll stick with my Bee Line hemp wick

Hmm, maybe next time I cant find my lighter(or have it die on me) and dont have a way to light my bowl i'll give it a try. Creative thinking for sure.

The taste different is insane!! it compares to using a herb iron (or something similar), smoothest hits ive ever taken. now i just love sunny days lol

ive done this before. it was epic! its a very smooth and light hit. also the flavors really come out

Yeah the flavors come out and are almost enhanced its the best hits cant wait to get back from work its suppose to be 29 degrees today

its a great way to toke but once ur a few hits in its becomes hard to focus the little beam, plus it does a number on your eyes.

Yeah, I just read this thread and thought "I have a magnifying glass, AND I live in SoCal, lets go try it...Well, after trying it out I have to say it works pretty well, has a good taste, and would recommend SERIOUS sunglasses if you wanna smoke a couple bowls this way, cause I'm still seeing spots...

hahah yea true say i forgot to mention sunglasses they are key.
one i focus it i try not to look at the bowl i just hold it in the same spot
its a fun way to smoke, i think its super effective

No doubt it's efective, clean, and renewable...But you can't smoke at night or on cloudy days with a magnifying glass...That being said, I'm gonna start carrying a magnifying glass in my car in case I get stranded in the wilderness and have to survive ALA Bear Grylls for a week...

Click to expand...

couldn't this be aliviated by using my bong? since the bowl is below, or will I still get mad reflections?

It's not reflections, it's staring at the focused spot of light, making sure it's on your bud and not your thumb...lol...like staring into the sun...you'll see, just try it out and you'll instantly be like "Oh, thats what those guys meant..."

hahaha dude the same thing happened to me, if you stare at the bowl the lights so intense it makes these black dots in your vision as if you were staring at the sun so everyone should wear sunglasses, but it makes it more epic that you can only do it on hot days each times such a treat i love it

im gonna try it with some hash tomorrow!

let me know how it goes man! the weather forecast is calling for thunder showers tomorow

In Amsterdam you can buy glassware with a little built in magnifying glass,never tried it but it is genius...until now I never thought of just using my own one tho,lol!

its kinda hard to start it but its smooth as fuck
