Smoking from a bong (or water pipe) for the first time can be a little confusing, but it gets easier once you know what you're doing.Before smoking any substance from this tool, you must fill it with water and prepare the bowl;Next, you need to light the smoking material and fill the ampoule with smoke before inhaling it.If you're a beginner, take it slow until you feel comfortable.
-
Fill the ampoule with water. You can use tap or bottled water;the exact dose depends on the size of pipe you are using.Pour the liquid until the level is no more than 2-3 cm from the tip of the stem (the long glass tube that enters the ampoule);if you exceed this limit, water splashes could "contaminate" the smoke.[1]
- When you fill the flask, pour the water directly from the top (the open portion that sits above the pipe).
-
Grind the cannabis. You can use your fingers, scissors or a specific grinder.Check that it is finely chopped;break off a couple of lumps half a centimeter long and wide to fill the base of the brazier.[2]
- If you decide to use a grinder, remove the lid and place 2-3 marijuana buds between the teeth of the grinder;replace the lid and turn it on both sides to chop the contents.[3]
-
Transfer the cannabis to the bowl. It is a funnel-shaped element joined to the external portion of the stem.Take the large pieces of substance that you have set aside and insert them into the brazier first;these prevent finely ground material from being sucked into the pipe as you smoke.Then add a pinch of chopped marijuana.[4]
- Don't overly compact the cannabis, otherwise air won't be able to pass through it;If it seems too compressed or compact, use a fine tool (like a paperclip) to mix it up and loosen it up a bit.
- If you smoke alone, do not fill the bowl more than half its capacity;you can always add more marijuana later.
- If you are with friends, fill the container to the brim but not above it, otherwise the cannabis may fall out while you smoke.

-
Get into a comfortable position relative to the bong. If this is your first time using it, sit or stand near a table where you can place your pipe if you start coughing;Stand near an open window if you don't want the room to fill with smoke.
- Make sure the area is clear of flammable objects.
-
Grab the bong with your non-dominant hand. Hold it around the chamber (the long section that joins the ampoule to the top opening) or around the base;Make sure you have a firm grip before lighting the pipe.[5]
-
Take a few deep breaths. Use your diaphragm (the muscle under your lungs) to fill your body with oxygen so you can inhale all the smoke in your bong without coughing too much.[6]
-
Place your lips on the top opening. They should remain inside the edge and adhere well to the entire circumference;make sure there are no cracks through which smoke can seep.[7]
-
Activate the lighter with your free hand. You can use a regular one:hold it vertically and operate it with your thumb.Your other fingers should remain wrapped around the lighter to avoid burning yourself.[8]
-
Tilt it sideways to bring the flame towards the brazier. Make sure that it burns only the edge of the cannabis in the container;in this way the substance lasts longer.Keep the heat close to the edge of the marijuana.[9]Advertising
-
Inhale slowly as you light the brazier. At this stage the smoke must not reach the mouth or lungs;the suction only serves to draw the smoke into the pipe chamber.As you go you should notice the top of the bong becoming “hazy” as it fills with smoke.
- If you are new to using this tool, only fill the chamber halfway on your first few tries so you don't feel overwhelmed by the smoke.[10]
-
Stop lighting the bowl when you are satisfied with the amount of smoke. Put the lighter aside or hold it in your hand, stop inhaling but don't move your mouth away from the opening, otherwise the smoke will escape outside.
-
Pull the bowl off the stem and inhale the smoke from the chamber. Use the hand that was holding the lighter to remove the bowl and inhale deeply, so that the smoke fills your lungs.[11]
- If you can't inhale all the smoke at once, move your mouth away from the pipe and cover the opening with the palm of your hand to plug it;When you're ready for another hit, remove your hand and quickly bring your lips to the bong.
-
Hold the smoke in your lungs for a few seconds. If you overdo it, you do not increase the effects of cannabis and could harm your health;2-3 seconds is enough to feel euphoric.[12]
-
Exhale the smoke. Blow it into the room or out the window.If you are around other people, turn your face away from them so as not to smoke them.
-
Place the bowl back on the stem. If you're smoking alone, light the marijuana again when you're ready for another hit;if you are with friends, pass the pipe and lighter to the person next to you.
- When you're done, remove the bowl and throw away the water;Rinse the pipe thoroughly and store it in a safe place where it cannot be damaged.
