1. Unflushed weed = harsher
2. Uncured weed = harsher, yes that's right wet weed = more gross smoke that's why wet fire wood makes too much gross smoke.
3. LOW THC - higher thc = less unwanted plant matter such as tar, chlorophyll, crap that creates smoke, (also that bit about crappy weed being smoother could be because crappy weed is likely grown outside and better weed may not be flushed and grown indoors)
Out of all the strains ive grown and have smoked after being flushed and cured all of them hit nicely and you can take massive bong rips and if you cough it's just becuase you took too much / held it too long and it's an involuntary way of breathing... kinda like when youre drowning... not because it's too harsh. Your results may vary.

Have you guys ever had hash though? I mean yea I'm not trying to say it doesn't taste great and I wouldn't prefer good bud/hash, but I think it's a pretty well known fact that good bud and hash makes you cough more than regular stuff. I mean hash oil feels like your lungs are gonna explode from a little baby hit. THC content must play a role in this as the higher the content the more you cough. I mean I thought this was pretty common knowledge they even mention it in half baked for god sakes haha. I'm trying to find out WHY higher THC content creates more of a "coughing" smoke rather than what is causing it. it seems pretty obvious its the THC content as the purer the smoke be it bud/hash/oil the more your gonna cough.

yea i understand that man. that's not what I'm saying or don't understand.I'm asking why you cough MORE with higher THC content. That's why I went into the hash oil thing, that stuff makes you cough way more off comparatively less smoke, what about THC makes you cough your brains out? Or why does higher THC content= more coughing off less smoke.

i dont know who says good herb is smoother, because when i go to the clubs, i get the dank og kush, and i cant stop coughin. imo more cough better the weed, unless your coughing because it tastes like dirt weed and your smoking miracle grow

Well middies are grown in fields and are thus organically grown, most good homegrown weed isn't organic. Try growing some dank organic goodness and see if it is harsh...
I've mostly smoked organic weed, and anything that I've smoked that is organic, dank or not, was SMOOTH.

interesting article doulovebeef I wonder if it could be an instant expectorant though. I should clarify too, what I mean by harsh is you end up coughing after a hit more often or I should say more easily. And idk if any of you have had hash or anything like that but those hits leave you coughing your brains out! That's why I think its directly linked to THC content of what your smoking and I've heard people say THC expands in your lungs but have never seen any actual evidence or articles actually saying it.
If you compare it to the purge of ayahuasca that cleans the stomach, the coughing can be a purge of the lungs.

organic isn't smoother than properly flushed refined nutrients - it is believed by several breeders that organic weed has to taste different because it leaves behind something in the weed on that note it can't be smoother than flushed refined nutrient grown weed.

1. The way it was made either with a solvent or no solvent.
2. Type of weed
3. Was never cured.

also the high thc / cannaboloid content to less harsh of taste would be a correlation not a fact

I don't know what you folks are talking about but I don't find good hash to be overly harsh at all. You have to figure that you're smoking an extremely concentrated substance so the smoke is going to be pretty potent but I think it goes down easier than most herb. I've been hot kniving 3 different kinds of hash all day for the past 2 days and I've been marveling over how smooth the hits are. Maybe you just need to work on your technique? Besides, coughing is a good thing since it cleans your lungs and for some reason it seems you even get higher after a huge body-wretching coughing fit.

that's ur brain being cut off from o2 cuz u cant take a decent inhale while ur busy coughing up all that shit u just put in ur lungs
as for actually clearing out your lungs, yes, if there's something to clear out. the last few weeks i've had bronchitis because i went back to the bong and started coughin shit up again. as soon as i switch back to vaping, THEN i expectorate all that shit.

I think with super good herb, the potency is just so high that the smoke is in essence, "concentrated". example.... Like doing laundry with a new concentrated detergent, compared to an older un concentrated detergent. You use way less to get the same outcome.
I have played with the notion that, we waste alot of highs, by taking huge lung filling fits and then exhaling the rest into the open air. now take a small hit and very little comes out of your lungs but you still end up pretty much as high as you were by taking them monster hits.
So what i am saying is, the concentration of actives in good herbal smoke compared to the actives in not so good herbal smoke, is what makes you have the cough reaction. Just a theory

That's my theory too, the concentration of THC is higher there for you cough more, but why does THC cause coughing? and as another poster said, yes at this point it is correlation the whole point of the post is to find some solid evidence of causation, I think it's beyond proven the higher the THC the more likely you are to be coughing after a hit. But there has to be a scientific reason for THC making people cough.

I've heard explanations that when you cough you force the smoke deep down into your lungs where it wasn't before coughing and that's why you get higher. I don't know if it's true/accurate but it seemed to make sense to me.
