Please reply back when you find it!

Anecdotally, once when I was strapped for cash, I had the idea to exhale into my volcano bag and reinhale it again, repeating this process several times per bag, and maaaaaaan did I get lit. It's like your own personal hot box. I do this all the time now and radically reduced the amount of herb I was going through, while also massively improving the high.

I struggle to reconcile my experience with your assertion, but am eager to learn more if you have the data.

I'm on mobile and supremely lazy, but I found an article on it that contains source links to some of the studies done on it: https://hometownhero.com/learn/why-holding-your-hits-in-is-pointless

Interesting link, thanks for sharing.

In this experiment, increasing puff volume significantly raised THC levels in the blood and behavioral effects, while longer breath-holding slightly increased THC levels but did not enhance behavioral effects.

From the article. They do mention a slight increase, fwiw. I'd be curious if the same is true for vaping and to what extent if so. Cool stuff!

Also regarding your anecdote, I wonder if the increased/reinhaled CO2 is causing some effects

I'm not really holding longer than two or three seconds each time, so not much co2 build up over all, I would think. It's worth a try if you get the shot, I've shared with a few pals and absolutely floored them even though they are heavy smokers.
