I don't know if this accounts for how inefficient smoking is.

If you have a gram of flower that is 20 percent THC, you're not* getting the whole 200mg when you smoke that gram.

Been using a Carta 2 for a few years now, and I can't imagine going back to smoking. The thing is incredible.

Took a few hits from a joint the other day, and it was crazy how much it stank everything up

Estimates are between 20-30% absorbtion with smoking, the rest is burnt off or lost. Fire destroys THC, which is why people corner bowls and tend to prefer blunts because they burn slower.
