There’s got to be some technology that does this. No sploofs!

Currently i crack a window, put a small square fan in it, and blow my exhaust through the fan. I use a vaporizer which cuts down the smell a lot, but there is still a lingering odor the night of, and sometimes the following morning.

I would prefer no odor at all, immediately. Any help is appreciated.

    There’s no way of avoiding it. Regular weed smokers think they don’t stink of it when they do, so you’re not going to get helpful advice from the smoking community. Smoke outside to avoid a lingering smell in your home. But your hair, skin, clothes (and breath if you’re slack on oral hygiene like most smokers) will still smell of weed. Stick to edibles if you don’t want to smell like a teenager.

    Vaporizing, while not orderless, has significantly less scent that disapates much faster than traditional combustion

    Impossible. The weed in your pocket reeks even before it is smoked. I can home once after a trip and I could immediately smell the weed in my drawer in the next room.

    Weed absolutely reeks. Period.

      There are a few issues with edibles:

      1. Onset time
      2. Type of high is different (more body than head)
      3. Not everyone has the enzyme to process edibles
      4. Vapor taste is part of the experience

        For 3, I thought weed just didn’t affect me too strongly as I am well aware of drugs affecting different people in different ways (if I have a coffee I can’t sleep until around 14 hours after), but if not everyone has the right enzyme? Is there a way to induce it or something as I don’t fancy putting shit that doesn’t belong into my lungs but also see the relaxing properties of weed could be nice

      Cooking can be pretty darn dank. There was this time someone at my dorm tried to make ‘weed butter’, and the whole second floor smelled like weed. It was one of the strongest smells I’ve smelled in my life, even though I was far from the chefs.

      I wonder if there are cooking methods that aren’t as dank…

      Although, to be fair, eating an already-cooked edible will probably not smell. I guess this is what you mean, Calhoon2005.

    When I vaporize, the smell doesn’t last very long. Not sure what kind of weed or vaporizer you use though.

    I’ve never tried it, but I heard good things about Smoke Buddy

      Using smoke buddy while vaping actually does help. Roommate that doesn’t smoke or vape says they never smell anything.

      Can vouch for smoke buddies. Not a bad price and works better than a makeshift sploof. Not bulletproof but works well enough.

    Short answer is you can’t. It’s not just the smoke you blow out of your mouth— just lighting up the j alone is gonna stink up your house, there’s no real way around it. Get yourself a dab pen (dry herb vapes aren’t as bad as a joint but still stink) or even better, stick to edibles.

    There’s honestly no way to. It sticks to everything. Eventually you become noseblind to it, but if your goal is to hide the smell from others, there’s no option but to smoke outdoors, and even then it still sticks to your clothes, hair, etc.

    Just stick with edibles. They’re healthier for you anyways.

    EDIT: oh you said “sploof” so I glanced over it. Seems the term “spoof” (as in to fake) has been telephone’d by stoners over the last 20 years because I’ve never heard “sploof” in my life. Sounds like some Rick & Morty shit.

    Original post: Build a spoof, homie.

    Take a plastic coke bottle, poke holes in the bottom about 1/8” across, in each of the feet

    Stuff that bitch fulla dryer sheets

    Blow your hits through it

    Now it smells like you used fabreeze for bong water but at least it’s not blatant

      Same here, they’re way more convenient than flower, imo. Often stronger, too. It’s just really nice being able to take a quick hit wherever I am without bothering people around me with the smell. And my landlord stays none the wiser.

        I went from spending like $150/week on flower to spending that much in 2 months by switching to concentrates (and they are super cheap too; I went today with $100 and only spent half that getting the maximum I am allowed a day). A single cart can last me for a week. It doesn’t feel as social so it’s not something I share (especially after COVID) like flower, and a single hit can last way longer than a few bowls.

        The lack of odor is just a nifty little bonus for me, since it doesn’t seem to matter where I live (every unit around me smokes weed lol). Actually been kinda missing the smell of the plant tho. I smell my neighbors coming out or on their balconies and I just want a good old fashion blunt again.

    I have a “man cave” in my garage as it is too small for my car. Comfy chairs, 200Mb Internet, tablet, table, heater. Indoors never smells.

    Why no sploofs? College years was all about towel on the bottom of the door and a sploof. We didnt have windows that opened but got through it fine

    This is not perfect… but:

    I pack small bowls - small enough to entirely inhale till the embers go out, so that no smoke comes off the bowl after. Then crack open the outside door JUST enough to blow it all out the crack, then shut the door immediately. You’re basically kissing a tiny crack in the door, then shutting it. A fan won’t work - it’ll blow a bit of the smoke up and down and all over.

    99% of the smoke goes into the lungs and out the door. The 1% still smells a bit though. If you cough, you fuck it up.

    Then of course the weed itself smells - not much you can do about that. But it doesn’t seep into carpet/furniture as bad as smoke does.

    Since you’re using a vape, try a cart (oil) instead and use the lowest temp you can stand. Do what you’re doing or try the window/door-crack method.

    If you’re trying to hide it from others who live with you, you can’t. Just go find a spot outside and leave a hooded jacket and gloves there or in your trunk (but only if it’s legal and you can’t be harassed for smells.)

    Only foolproof way is to buy edibles that are made elsewhere and keep them sealed. Febreze or dry shampoo can help a little with mild non-smoke smells after opening certain edibles.
