Does A One Hitter Get You Higher?

 A single-hitter (also ooney, batty, toe, ooney-bat, or snorter) is generally a long, thin, screened pipe with a narrow bowl designed to deliver one puff, or hit, of smoke or vapor from a small portion (about 25 milligrams) of heated cannabis flowers, tobacco leaves, or other dried, ground, sifted, herb-based formulations. Smoking out of a one-hitter is similar to smoking from a pipe, except that you will need to angle it to prevent cannabis smoke from falling out of the bowl, as it is a straight tube. The smaller bowl on a one-hitter is cleared every time you smoke, and the shorter inside of the pipe is easy to clean out of resin. The hits that come out of the single-hitter are more flavorful than smoke coming out of hand pipes or larger pipes such as bubblers. 

If you are on a budget, or want your supplies to last, try using a one-hitter pipe next time you smoke. Do not feel bad; if you have not used one-hitter pipe cannabis before, let us explain what makes cannabis so easy to smoke. If you got a single hitter into your pot toolkit, you got yourself a pipe you can smoke pretty much everywhere. To smoke in public in confidence, be sure to get the cannabis you want shredded before leaving your home, so it is easier to pack a single-hitter pipe with your weed. 

This way, you will be smoking out a small amount at a time from your one-hitter bowl of weed until you are eventually done. When smoking out a joint, or out or pipe, or bong, it is easier to fill up the entire bowl and end up finishing everything. Make sure that your weed is chopped so it is small enough to fit into a bowl, but big enough that it stays in the pipe instead of turning into ash and mixing into your smoke. 

Ground cannabis is packed in a bowl on one end of the pipe, and smoked on the other, a process that is probably the most intuitive of all cannabis dosing methods. This helps to prevent buildup and extends the cleanup process, making Dart Hitters pipes far more effective for use. When smoking out a pipe that has been used multiple times, resins built up inside of the bowl and inside walls of the pipe will heat up and produce harsh flavors and odors which will distract from the fresh, dank flavors of pure, green hits. 

Most single hits do not use carbs, which are little holes in the sides of bowls and pipes you plug in while lighting your herbs, because the amount of cannabis used (about 25 milligrams) makes a carb unnecessary. One-hitters, whether they are ciggs or joints, usually use crushed cannabis, which is why it is easier for a one-hitter to pack on, so that no herbs will escape during smoking. In short, one-hitters are safer from a legal standpoint because it is much less likely that use would be detected, safer from a medical standpoint because a consumers lungs are more likely to remain intact, and safer from a dosage standpoint because cannabis consumers who use one-hitters always know exactly how much cannabis they are going to get from a single hit. 

While using a one-hitter is not quite as intense as smoking an entire bowl or taking a dab, smoking any amount of high-quality cannabis will make someone high to some extent. A one-hitter gives you enough to do that wake-and-bake in the morning, or that perfect post-work relaxation. 

There is a shared love among one-hitter pipe users who prefer smoking while traveling due to the ease and quickness in which a high is achieved. Trust us, we have heard all of the negatives of the single hitters -- they are cheap, they do not hit as hard as bubblers or bongs, you would prefer smoking from vape pen -- we get it. It is, among all cannabis smoking devices, the most discreet way to consume flower because it is tiny, can be stored out of sight and quickly.
