Try this stuff. It helps remove odors from clothing. It’s usually inexpensive but Amazon seems to be out of stock. Check Walmart. You need something that has an enzyme remover. That’s what will get rid of the odors.

Hands down, the best tools: Metal dental tools. They work THE BEST! They're made for scraping small, hard, flat surfaces. These things work GREAT for me.
Speaking from experience, don't fuck around with lung diseases and smoking. If you can't stop, get a pulse oximeter and use it. If it's not easy to maintain +90% saturation, head to the hospital immediately.
it's not drinking water or juice that makes it illegal. its drinking the stuff with the intent of cheating. and if it looks obvious enough that you were trying to cheat (and with a good tester, it can look obvious) a prosecutor and pin charges.
you can't honestly believe that drug testing companies haven't tried to think of a way around the water/cranberry juice method by know, can you?
This is how your cheat http://i.imgur.com/VmOsw.png
I use glass crutches in my blunts and joints and it'll still happen. I smoke with crutches in all my rollies cuz I don't like Scoobie snacks and I can say there isn't much that can be done to stop the resin from forming on crutches/lips.
I've seen some carbon-filtered tips before but not sure how well they would work. or if they would even work too well and filter out some of the THC? https://www.amazon.com/actiTube-activated-CHARCOAL-filters-rolling/dp/B00JQ9ON0E
the only thing that might help with the resin on the lips is if you never touch the blunt to your lips.
Smoked tea daily through middleschool starting seventh grade and started again freshman year of highschool mixed with weed and sometimes also tobacco.
It burns dense, expect long cherries. The caffiene in some teas will get combusted rather than vaporized so it won't affect you. The flavor is alright, doesn't beat the taste of some quality baccy, let alone any bud. It'll only smoke as harsh as you let yourself think it's harsh.
Herbal smoking blends can be bought off Amazon. This one in particular though, I smoked too much in one night, and had chronic heart palpitations for a month. Otherwise it's composed of plants early humans smoked.

100ct Lot - Metal Pipe Screens (5/8") (.625") (STEEL) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007BQTC5U/
Edit: i am dumb. I have no link for 100 cheap glass screens. Nor do I have the ability to properly read a post's entire title. Or content. But I shall leave my shame here.
How long is your commute from home? not enough time for the trip there prep and get to the testing facility?
I dont know about the timing from frozen to 90 degrees you might want to test the timing of it with just some water or something if that is your plan.
I've seen travel mugs that are heated and have a 12v plug for your car. Could possibly drop the frozen urine in a warm water bath in one of those mugs on the way over to the testing facility.
Edit: Did some googling and found one on amazon with a temperature readout and temp control!!! actually seems perfect imo.
How so? Pretty sure fire will kill most bacteria/viruses. I did a quick bit of research and found this article about disinfecting needles with a lighter. If it works for needles then I think it will work for a pipe. http://www.ehow.com/how_8322762_disinfect-needles.html
Edit: Fire when visible is at least 800-1000 degrees Fahrenheit. pretty safe to say this is effective at killing most bacteria.
I like these a lot. Different sizes available and the humidifier packets work really well
Herb Guard - Quarter Oz Airtight Container & Smell Proof Stash Jar (100ml) Bonus Humidity Pack Keeps Goods Fresh for Months https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LVTKAFT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_V497K7ZZ2V0NMZM3VNWQ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
If you can bring prepackaged food, then I have an idea for you to try!
So last night my friend and I were talking about safely moving weed around our city. If you get a bag of chips, open it carefully, pour out some of the chips, put your weed (or your brownies) in the bag and then re-seal the bag. And you might be like "WHAT?! How to reseal bag?" And the answer is this bad boy right here.
We figured it would be easier to walk around with a bag of Cheetos more than an ounce of weed!
I use one of these. Holds a few lighters, a container, and a small bowl:
https://www.walmart.com/ip/UST-Watertight-First-Aid-Kit-1.0-Red/44498091
They're cheaper here, I think..
These work pretty well for containing the weed, too. The aforementioned container:
Edit: I should clarify, the first link is a first aid kit that's decently airtight, and can be emptied to carry some tools. I can tell you from experience that the kit fits in my jeans just fine, but it can be kinda loud/rattly when you move.
I have some charcoal bags in my car since it’s a deodorizer (they just need to be put in the sun to reactivate, but since it’s in my car & im in hot af GA it gets enough sun). They have really big ones that hang off the back which look nice, but I haven’t tried them so I can’t give a review. I have a bag that’s a little big bigger than my hand & it gets the smell out of my car in ~3 days (I don’t hotbox though, I open a window & vape but the smell comes in anyway)
Here’s an Amazon link so you can see what I’m talking about: Amazon
Won’t be the fastest method, but it would be good long term so you don’t have to keep deep cleaning for the smell
could you use a tabletop smoker, however I'm not sure if thc can be absorbed that way
​
After years of dried out weed and scent-leaking I got myself a few air tight, uv-resistant and moisture-preserving glass jars, they used to have food supplements inside and they look amazing so a clear recommendation from me^^

This stuff is the bees knees when it comes to cleaning grime like that off the bong. I had a bong completely ringed like that on the inside where the water sat and it completely came off using that glass cleaner
It’s not ideal, but whenever I would come home from college, I would use just a piece of shit 2 piece grinder and empty the weed into a red solo cup to use. You could roll your own stuff from there
The jar will do just fine. I personally keep mine in some small airtight jars (perfect size to hold an 1/8) and keep those in an Herb Guard smellproof case.

I have one of these. I bought it because I had the same problem as you and it solved my problem. It does a great job of keeping the smell in. Looks like it's almost 50% off right now too.
But as others have said there are probably other cheaper alternatives, I just never had something that could contain the smell as good as this (including mason jars).
When I visited Reef in vegas, the pre-rolls came in these tubes.
The stuff I bought was VERY smelly stuff. Couldn't smell a thing so long as it was closed/sealed.
yo since u pointed me in this direction, could u help me out a bit, how does this replace my bowl, where does the concentrate go, ive seen other dab rigs and shit and usually the bit where u put the concentrate is on the side in a lil open thing with a lid
This was the first thing I thought of. Here's a link to some on amazon.
Buy a pack of glass daisy screens, they sit in the hole but allow air to travel through. They're pretty great but break easily if you aren't careful
Fresh air , scrub walls , floors , air purifier, dehumidifier, time, & this great stuff called Ozium https://www.amazon.com/Ozium-Oz-Sanitizer-Eliminator-Original/dp/B086T5M5WT/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?crid=1H7CX9DGHVIKC&keywords=ozium&qid=1653305360&sprefix=oz%2Caps%2C144&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzNlA...

Use iso and a paint brush. I’ve been using this for well over 8 years. Soaking plus the paint brush or scrub brush brings it back in 10 minutes.
When you store your bud, toss a humidity pellet bag in with them, it’ll keep it from getting too dry and keep it fresher for longer.
You got it. I've tried all sorts of things and the two things I use most to clean/scrape/gather are metal dental tools and spudgers.
Forget that, use steel spudgers. Cheap, effective and reusable.
> get some metal screens
If you mean the mesh ones I switched over to glass daisy screens after I noticed the mesh ones were disintegrating with too much use. no fun smoking metal.
There are some other screens that are metal tho that aren't mesh tho that could also work. ive used another screen called a Smoking Screw that was pretty dope.
This is what I've been using for years now (same price at Walmart & Amazon), about $16. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mr.-Coffee-Precision-Coffee-Grinder-With-Chamber-Maid-Cleaning-System-IDS77/2593964
As far as I've read/researched, it's safe. It's "lab grade" 99%. I buy it by the jug off Amazon. . If you can use it to rub on your skin (which absorbs it), I'm fairly certain I'm okay. Besides, if you do your ISO extraction correctly, it's all evaporated anyway.
If it’s propane, butane, or white gas, you’re good. Wood pellets might work, but I don’t think alcohol ones would get hot enough to take a dab. Charcoal grills would definitely get hot enough, but you’d have to stick it into the coals and hold it there long enough to seriously burn yourself. You can also buy blowtorch attachments for camp stove fuel cans!
OCB Unbleached King Size is my choice. They started selling them up north about a year ago and they started off with bamboo rods for a cheap price of $2.50 for 3. They still have the bamboo option but it costs more now, I think because they became very popular. If you go on Amazon you can purchase 800 cones for $80.00 and it comes with bamboo rods. I'm a heavy smoker so this was worth the buy to save on money and constantly going out to buy 5+ packs of cones. Most of the time there is no runs when smoking out of these cones, which was a huge upsell.
This is the dohickey I have and love it. It's also my everyday carry multi tool. Had it for about 6 years now.
Nite Ize Doohickey SkullKey, Stainless https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00N24X5R6/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_146FQS7DDBG6D6FCQN8M
A lot of people don't know that just rubbing your hands on we stainless steel will do the trick. It works for garlic, onion, anything that is really smelly. I've got one of these and it works great. Before I got that, I would rub my hands on the kitchen sink under running water.
For clothing: Wear a cap or a bandana and a spare shirt/coat. Ditch or hid them after smoking.
The best way to keep the smell down to a minimum is to use a pipe and only take snaps that you can cache in one hit with no smoke escaping. Smoke and ash = smell.
When you run out of balloons, this is a cheap alternative that works the same way.
Bottle Brush Cleaner 5 Pack - Long Water Bottle and Straw Cleaning Brush - Kitchen Wire Scrub Set for Washing, Wine Decanter, Baby, Kombucha, Pipes, Hydro Flask Tumbler, Sinks, Beer Brewing Supplies https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G4ZG7L4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_GR4K3SR2M04FBDA7FSCB
Alcohol, no salt, and these works great for me. Salt can scratch the inside of the glass and make it look cloudy and give a place for more build up to grab. I do it about every ten bowls. No ice, been told water particles are denser the colder they are (obvious? I guess?) which can attach in your lungs and over time give you phenomena. Guy who told me that was just recovering from phenomena, and claims that’s where it came from. I hear hot water did the new thing and the science makes sense, just never tried.

I have these. They also have them for clippers. I like it bc you pull the wick back down through the metal chute to snuff it, super easy and quick
Iso + coarse salt is good and it's fairly cheap.
If it's all glass, you could try a clay cleaner. I use this on my glass pieces if they're really dirty. Pour in, coat all surfaces inside, let it sit for 30 min, rinse with warm/hot water.
I have it inside a small metal tube so I just pull it back in. Don't burn my fingers and don't waste any. Also, if you pinch it your fingers end up black from soot
Check this link out: DrGlaucomflecken
He's an Ophthalmologist, funny, and covers this topic.
If you can't watch the link this is what he recommended: Lumify
if it is black and dirty chances are you are not cleaning it between dabs. and when your are taking another dab you are just burning the previous dab onto the banger. you could burn the black crud off(just heat it like crazy with a torch), but it will just leave your banger looking milky/cloudy.
I've had sporadic luck with DarkCrystal Glass Cleaner. just try and heat a lil bit of it in a microwave for few seconds and place the banger in it to soak for along as you can.
your best bet would be to start fresh with a new banger and grab yourself a little jar for qtips and some iso. just dip the qtip in the iso and wipe out the banger after your hits.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078J23ZFN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_0VD8FbNT4N0PY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Would into this. I use it all the time for my glass. Only con is that it leaves a slippery resin but you can get it off with dawn soap afterwards. Found this helpful during the no rubbing alcohol crisis
I don't smoke within two hours of going to sleep for this very reason.
Melatonin will help you fall sleep in the future.
I recommend starting with 2.5mg even though the typical adult dose is 5mg.
How well does it work to descent? What quality did you get? Would this work? gas mask filter, amazon
Another good one are cyclone preroll cones if you're into prerolls:
Just get this.....its way better! https://www.amazon.com/Obol-Original-Cereal-Spiral-Design/dp/B079S38QV8/ref=psdc_376929011_t1_B00EDQCOX8
This might not be a good use of the product... for its intended purposes. I find that it works very well for scrubbing tight spots in bowls, though!
No problem amigo. I learned "the hard way" too. (someone pointed it out to me)
The important thing is this: DID YOU GET YOUR PIECE CLEAN!?
If not, I have always had great luck with 90+ ISO alcohol + KOSHER salt. Kosher salt granules are larger and seem to clean/scrub better in my experience. For really stubborn stuff, you may want to soak/rinse with very warm water to help loosen the gunk THEN use the ISO + Salt.
I say "very warm" because boiling or REALLY hot water can cause your glass to crack from the temperature change. You can use it, but you just have to be careful not to "shock" the glass from temperature changes. Soak it in hot water before adding REALLY hot water so the glass isn't cool/cold.
I also recommend some bottle brushes. They work WONDERS and can snake into the hardest to get areas. They work really well.
My last bit of advice is to use an ash catcher with your setup. It will make the hits much smoother and more importantly, keep your main piece MUCH cleaner. I usually clean my ash-catcher 4-5 sessions before I have to clean my actual piece.
I hope that helps!!
I soak in ZEP Heavy-Duty Citrus Degreaser. It makes my glass pieces look new. Soak it overnight for best results and shake your piece while still having the degreaser in it to dislodge hard to reach buildups. Best part is that you can continue to reuse the degreaser after use, just pour used degreaser back in the container. A single bottle usually last me at least a year and it can be found at most hardware or home improvement stores for cheap.
With a pen you should probably be fine. But if you've got extra cash, get a smoke buddy. You can get one on Amazon, or at possibly Spencer's. https://www.amazon.com/Smoke-Buddy-0159-BLU-Personal-Filter/dp/B00478UIB2/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1547093705&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=smoke+buddy&dpPl=1&dpID=41k13oQ00rL&ref=plSrch
Could be a Q, could be a half. Get a scale my man, [pick that one up on amazon that every stoner everywhere uses.](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ascher-Portable-Digital-Back-lit-Weighing/dp/B01FQHE25U/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1548541725&sr=8-4&keywords=small+scale)
Could be a Q, could be a half. Get a scale my man, pick that one up on amazon that every stoner seems to have! If you just picked up off a new dealer always check your weights, the guy will always undercut you if he figures he can get away with it. Best pick up a scale for £5/$5 and you're safe.
​
IMO either thats some dense shit or you've been given a little less than a half. Just doesn't look like much there you know? I'd stick a nug at a time in the grinder of that, normally my nugs are around a gram and they are those sort of sizes ... doesn't look like you got 14 1 gram nugs there you know? Maybe thats like 10-12 g? Idk, get a scale bro
They make smell proof jars like this one that you can get for a reasonable price. I’ve had one for a little over a year and it completely conceals even the strongest smells
OLD SCHOOL!! i love these back then. if you really want to test your skills make a joint 12" long but the diameter of a pencil. Shit hit clean! just dont over pack it, you need airflow to burn properly.
i dont know if they still have them, they use to come in rice paper with a roll like dispenser. here is the link but i think they stop making them https://www.amazon.com/ELEMENTS-PAPERS-METERS-UNFLAVORED-FLAVOR/dp/B01LXGGKWW/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=elements+rolls&qid=1602257603&s=hpc&sr=1-1
Good luck!
The more often you clean, the easier it will be. I don't like to let my pipes get too dirty before cleaning them. I personally don't let them get dirty enough to where I have to soak them.
I use ISO Alcohol + Kosher salt (it is corase). If there are some spots that are not cleaning, you may invest in some bottle brushes. They work wonders for those bends and hard to reach areas.
If you’re into girly ones get a throwback caboodle!

Hands down the single best piece cleaner I have ever used is Randy’s Black Label
You put it in your piece, and it has a granulated texture to it, all you gotta do is shake it around and let it sit for maybe 4-6 MINUTES, shit is a game changer to be honest.
Then to keep it clean, I use a water alternative solution for my bong called Piece Water and as gimmicky as I thought it would be this stuff keeps whatever is submerged in it, really clean. A lot of people thing bong water solutions are stupid and to just use normal water so it’s really just a bonus tbh.
ISO + Bottle Brushes + Kosher Salt = Clean rig. Get some bottle brushes and bend them slightly. You should be able to reach all but the most intricate glassware with a bottle brush - no problem.
You can find brushes online here for 9 bucks. I'm sure you can find them at Wal Mart or one of the "Dollar" stores too. You can get 99% ISO alcohol on Amazon. Here's the stuff I ordered.
The one I have is a good size and inside is probably big enough circumference wise for about 1-2 joints
Here's a link to the Amazon page, it's like $12
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CNJHMZG/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_DMVvEbPHMFXZM
Keeps the smell in pretty well. It writes well enough at first but mine dried out pretty fast (if that matters to you).
It should be okay. As everyone is saying air tight is always better. Your flower could get a little dry in that if air is getting in. If that happens Boveda Humidity Packs (found some on Amazon) are amazing at keeping flower fresh.
Systane dry eye relief. It's like 15 bucks a bottle but I always have rly dry eyes from allergies and these are like the only drops that actually work for me. IDGAF about if my eyes are red or not but I can't stand the itchy eyes.
There's also this shit you can buy that's like mouthwash for your eyes. Works really well and makes your balls feel like new!
The only herbs I've tried so far are the ones from Honeyrose. It tastes good but the smell is horrible so I highly recommend not smoking those herbs in closed rooms.
Aside from that, you can always use regular tea that you can get from any pharmacy (at least where I live that is). Salvia and Peppermints are the ones that I prefer when I don't want to smoke with tobacco.
I prefer not to smoke outside especially at an apartment complex. If smell is the only issue consider buying a Smoke Buddy to smoke in your apartment. It eliminates all smell and no smoke comes out the other end! It surprised me how well it worked the first time I used one.
Smoke Buddy 0159-BLU Personal Air Filter, Blue https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00478UIB2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_puBQBbRSYSNHT
Or for much cheaper you can make yourself a sploof which is just an empty roll of toilet paper / paper towels with some dryer sheets stuffed inside. It doesn’t completely get rid of the smoke so it can stain the inside walls of your new apartment like regular weed use. From my experience it works just as well as the smoke buddy just looks a little janky when compared.
http://www.weedist.com/2012/12/how-to-make-a-sploof/
������ Best of luck!! ������
Smoke from a bong. Only smoke what you can cash in one hit and use a sploof (toilet tissue tube stuffed with 4-5 dryer sheets) and exhale through it.
THere will still be a smell, but it doesn't linger. Also, get an essential oil diffuser.
well this one comes at 99%, but im sure it's the only one:
This has been the best grinder ever. This thing is a beast.
Phoenician Herbal Grinder - Large 4 Piece w/ Papers Holder - Blue with 2 Rolling Paper Depot Doobtubes https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015WZVQZK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_RufVzbZ5TZN4V
Tightvac. You can find them on Amazon ranging from 1oz to 6 oz
In plain sight. Seriously.
I had a friend who had a cop search her car for weed. She hung her baggie on the mirror that's on the windshield. He searched her car very well, pulling up seats and looking in the seat belt buckles and all of that, and he missed it, because it was right there in his face. It was a clear baggie, too.
Otherwise, I've found tea tins work well. They're airtight, dark, and keep your weed fresh (since they're designed to keep tea fresh). Here's a nice one that I use, but there are different price ranges.
Inexpensive one. You can share with friends!
Note the little seal thing you put inside. Keeps air and light out, and the smell, in. The tin itself camoufloges nicely into your kitchen as well.
There are a lot of knockoff Sharpstones.
These are the good ones: https://www.amazon.com/Official-Authentic-Grinder-Performance-Technology/dp/B00W2VNEA8/ref=sr_1_5?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1489507625&sr=1-5&keywords=large+sharpstone
There used to be a Prime acceptable shipper, but they sold out. I have three of these and they are far superior to any "Sharpstone" labelled product I've purchased in a shop in person.
You know you got the right one when it has the US Patent # printed on the bottom and has the Ice Scraper style scoop.
With regards to the grinder, if you can find a metal grinder with pyramidal teeth, I highly recommend that over any other teeth configuration. I bought mine about 5 years ago and the finish is starting to wear, but it's still tearing shit up.
Get yourself a smoke buddy and ozium air freshener. ETA: Ozium also has sprays for more immediate deodorizing but I haven't tried it myself yet. I had to smoke in my car for a while though and the gel worked wonders for getting the smell out.
I have a long brush made to clean trombones. It works amazingly well.
Here's a link to a cheap one on amazon. They definitely lengthen the lifespan of your whip.

Most pocket scales I've had calibrate off of a weight like this. I got one forever ago and it's been good to keep my scale accurate
Try to ask them to use a smoke buddy on their end first, but you can also try to put up carbon filters over the vents. These work pretty well although need replacement every once in a while. Not that you should have to deal with it but it's an easy compromise, maybe ask them to put them on on their end as well.
edit: forgot link http://www.amazon.com/Aftermarket-Carbon-Filters-HAPF60-Filter/dp/B00L2NZOKK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458934386&sr=8-1&keywords=carbon+filters
Probably, would work. Never seen this kind in person but it looks legit and pretty easy to get in and out of. I was thinking of the screw top that is used by pet owners and preppers to keep rice and dehydrated water for the apocalypse: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089QJQTS
Make your own if money's tight: http://www.amazon.com/Marineland-PA0373-Activated-40-Ounce-1134-Gram/dp/B0002566WY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1455673519&sr=8-1&keywords=activated+carbon. Just wrap some of these rocks in a paper towel and throw it into your sploof.
Try a CVault for your Herb Storage container. Different Sizes Available
You can get some cheap grinder from amazon or get a little bit nicer at a local headshop.
Now you have more than $50 for a bowl. I suggest buying in person so you can feel and see details. I like to get heavier glass, more durable and I think feels better to use.
Different containers for different situations. You say that you are "leaving town" so I'm assuming your driving. I got pulled over a while ago and got arrested because I was stupid. I had my stuff in a mason jar (which is air tight so there isn't any smell [which is why everything got thrown out because there was no probable cause] which is great if you have it in a bookbag and are just carrying it around with you) which for driving is a terrible idea because it's so hard to hide. What I recommend now are these if you are going to be driving. They are magnetic and you can stick them anywhere underneath your car. Who the hell is going to be looking under your car! Even if it's searched they are only going to look in your car, not under it. If it's impounded you're probably screwed but I think those are definitely your best option.
I use these in various sizes. My travel size is about the size of this one, maybe a bit smaller, but this was the smallest I found with a quick search. I got mine as a set with 2 small, 2 medium and 2 large jars. Mine are opaque ceramic with colored glass lids. This one is clear glass, but knowing what to look for you can probably find a set like mine.

Edit you can probably pick one up at like Bed Bath & Beyond or Walmart in the kitchen area. Arts and crafts stores will have them for sure. They're called hinged lid canning jars, apothecary jars, locking lid jars or just canning jars, depending on where you look.
I usually bend out a long drapery hook like these. Can easily clean it off by heating them up with a lighter and then just wiping it off.
Looks like this. Usually use hook end to scoop and pin end to do an intial cleaning of my bubbler or just clear the downstem.
