Keep reading to learn everything there is to know about how to hit a bong.

Step 1

First, clean the mouthpiece and the bowl before filling up the bong with fresh water. Fill it up with about an inch of water while making sure that the stem is partially submerged. All bubblers will be a little different, the key is to fill it to where it is no more than one inch above the tip of the downstem. 

If you add more water than that you will splashed while you are smoking.

Step 2

Next, you will grind up the cannabis with either your fingers, a grinder, or scissors. You really want to make sure it is ground up finely so if you are a newbie you might want to invest in a grinder. Take a few large pieces and put them in the bowl first without grinding them.

Then, take the ground up cannabis and pack it in the bong bowl, the larger pieces that you put in first will prevent the ground cannabis from getting sucked through the bowl while you are smoking.  

Make sure that you do not pack the cannabis too tight because it won’t allow any air to pass though it and it will make it difficult to smoke. If you are smoking by yourself there is no need to pack the bowl more than halfway and if you need more you can always pack more as needed. 

Step 3

Now, you will get into a comfortable position either sitting down or standing up and stay clear of any flammable objects. Wrap your hand around the section that connects the mouthpiece and the water chamber or hold the bottom of the bong. Before lighting it you want to make sure you have a good grip. 

Once you feel like you are comfortable then put your mouth on the mouthpiece making sure that there are no gaps or else the smoke will escape. Use your other hand to light the cannabis while you keep your other fingers wrapped around the lighter to make sure you do not burn them. 

While you light the cannbais inhale slowly and you will see the chamber slowly filling with smoke. Once you are happy with the amount of smoke in the chamber stop lighting the bowl and stop inhaling but keep your mouth on the mouthpiece to keep the smoke trapped in the chamber. 

Pull the bowl out of the stem and inhale the smoke you have in the chamber. Hold the smoke in your lungs for a few seconds and exhale.
