Hey all!

My boyfriend would NOT be thrilled if he knew I am planning on experiementing with herb as often as I plan on it (he knows I'm going to try it... but he isn't happy about it....)

Anyway.... pot has a very strong smell..... if I smoke, how do I make sure I get the smell COMPLETELY off of me so that he won't ever suspect??

I guess... i don't want ANYONE to know if I can help it..... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Everytime that I have to hide the smell (school, work...), I wash my hand and take a gum. Maybe brush your theets if your paranoid. And to be 100% sure, change your shirt!

Im sure that you will love the herb

Good luck

Thanks! good tips! I'm staying optimistic and hopeful that I will love it as much as you all do.

Thanks again.....

Shirts are a big one! If you smoke joints especially (or blunts, or anything that is constantly burning) than your shirt will begin to smell. Last night before a party I smoked half a joint right before I went in, put it out, put it in an extra PH testing tube I have (glass tube with airtight top), stuck it in my car, and my shirt smelled a bit. Then I went back halfway through and smoked the rest. Long story short, I made it a shirtless dance-party because it smelled so bad. Luckily I have abs of steel!

So point of the story, smoke a J if you want to have a shirtless party and bring an extra shirt if you want to wear one, or bring a light perfume.

talking a walk before you see him, or if your driving just windows down/ac/heat on and air it out, perfume, and gum..should be good, make sure to wash your hands/even like mouth/face to make suuuure

Try using a different meathod of smoking, joints burn paper as well which makes them the smelliest way of smoking for sure (did I even mention the fact the smoke is right on your fingers as well afterall...) Try a bong, if you're nervous, change your shirt, wash your hands, brush your teeth, use some listerine and you'll be fine. If you DO use a joint, just wash your hands good with soap, and then use the above meathods.

if you aren't able to wash your hands you can use the grass trick. just wipe some grass on your hands and it totally covers the smell of weed on your hands

Yeah, lol. Or dirt, I use to do this, still do when people can't know.

How well does your boyfriend know what weed smells like? If he doesn't know what it smells like then you won't have as much of a hard time hiding it. But just wash up and take some gum. I have a feeling that when you start trying to pull it off and hiding it from him you'll know what to do.

I just go for a little stroll outside and the smell goes away pretty fast. The smell from ganja is strong, but it really won't stay on you for too long. If you eat anything, the smell will leave your breath and if you wash your hands after smoking a joint or blunt, they shouldn't smell too badly like weed. I think as long as you don't get too paranoid you'll be fine, the smell is strong but it fades rather quickly.

smoke a few cigarettes or a cigar. the tobacco smell overpowers the weed smell. i do this when i smoke in my room. i smoke the blunt, then i smoke 4 or 5 cigs, and spray with Febreeze so my parents wont know. but unless your boyfriend doesnt want u smokin cigs either, Febreeze is wonderful.

I have the same problem as you - bf doesn't like the fact that I smoke, but I live with him so its hard to hide it and I'm not able to smoke as much as I'd like.
The safest method is for me to smoke outside then spray fabreeze on my clothes, brush my teeth, and spray my hair with something. I used to smoke inside when i knew he wouldn't be home for several hours and spray the room with fabreeze, but I've had problems getting rid of the smell a couple times and he noticed right away. Eventually he will find out if you do it enough times - do you live together?

Haha. That annoys me....like when people who have NEVER smoked weed or seen it or smelled it (you know...the people that think you smoke ground up leaves) always try to say things like "woah..this smells kinda like weed" and it will be something stupid. Hell. They would probably think a pile of dogshit smelled "kinda like weed"

if your smokin inside u can use a doob tube, take a cardboard tube from the middle of roll of paper towels and stuff 5-7 dryer sheets in there and blow all the smoke into one end. it comes out smelling like a cloud of fabric softener. if your really paronoid you can take a big plasitc bag and rubber band it over one end, with no air in it. have a bag of smoke at the end of your session.

Yeah, like a couple people said, he may not know the scent of ol' mary. One day in math, weed somehow came up, so one retard said it smelt "like cotton candy" and bunch of people agreed! But it gets better he (and the others who claimed it smelt like cotton candy) were at a................................




carnival!

And another time a kid thought a black n mild smelt like weed.

Hiding pot use from your partner..glad i never had to do that! but yeah change shirt, and spray yourself with somethin, perfume what not. you'll be fresh and sexy smellin then not stinkin of weeed

Well... to be clear..... he knows that I'm going to do it.... but I'm being optimistic that I'm REALLY going to like it... and he wouldn't be thrilled if I was doing it more than once in a blue moon, you know? hee hee

I have the best perfume... very sexy..... I think that will help keep his mind off of anything else! (I hope so, anyway!)

Couch-Potato's Ultimate Guide for Scent-Free Smoking Euphoria!


Smoke bud with a sweatshirt on.
Blow smoke through a doob tube (look it up if you don't know)
Put eye drops in BEFORE you smoke, this will soothe your eyes while you are sober, so the point is to never have your eyes actually turn red.

After:
Take off sweatshirt
Eat gum / freshen breath
Washing face is good for super-ninja-ness

DO NOT overdo it. Opening windows, house reeking of deodorant spray, coming up with a fully-fledged thought out excuse the moment they enter the door. Did you smoke? No, fuckface! What the hell are YOU talking about? Are you high? (See? Turn the tables on them!)

This strategy works 69% of the time, every time.

Spray yourself.

Wow....69% of the time, huh? I love the "turning the tables" example! Febreeze... never thought of that one..... a sweatshirt .... all such great advice! Thanks!

Let's see... I was in the same boat as you, I had to cover EVERYTHING up, most of the time.

Eyedrops are a must. I use Visine, you can experiment with other brands if you so choose.

Always wash your hands after smoking. Most of the smell originates from your hands, since they were handling the smoking implements.

As for the smell on your clothes, you have a few options available. As a girl, perfume would seem like an obvious choice to me. Febreeze is better suited for ridding the smell in an area (I use it in my basement if I must). I've also found using dryer sheets (The kind where the powder comes off easily) will eliminate the smell COMPLETELY, and makes your clothes smell like fresh laundry. However, it can at times leave amounts of powder visible on your clothes, but this can be rubbed off mostly.

If you're worried about breath (maybe with your boyfriend this might be an issue, breath normally isn't noticeable to most) gum always works. Mouthwash works but I've found it suspicious if you use it any time other than at night.

I forgot, you can also change your clothing, although this used excessively is suspicious (at least for us guys). As mentioned, hoodies are good to smoke in and take off afterwards, I find pants don't smell too bad after smoking, unless you're hotboxing.

A "Toobie" or "Doob Tube" (as others have stated above) works pretty well, just don't use it alone, right before someone comes home and hope they won't notice.

As for what to say if people say anything about you acting funny, I find I'm generally straight enough to pull off "I have a headache" or "I'm tired" if it's at night.

Remember, joints and especially blunts are smellier than bowls (and bongs if you stop most of the smoke from leaking) so keep this in mind. I've found smoking a bowl outside will leave almost no smell on me whatsoever, just mostly on my hands.

If you have a bathroom fan that sucks the air out, you can smoke in the bathroom as long as you manage to get all the smoke instantly sucked through the fan. Contrary to what some will say, merely taking a shower after/during smoking will not eliminate the smell effectively alone.

I use a doobtube (fabric softener sheets in a tube) and burn a few incense during my session

Ozium!!!!! I have a bedroom with a bathroom attached so I keep a big can of ozium next to the toilet and I go in the bathroom, lock the door, then I roll a joint or pack a bowl, spray a half second of ozium in the air then walk outside, smoke it, then go back in, use mouthwash, gargle, then I spit it in my waterbottle I use as a chamber, shake it up, then put it under the sink and let the water overflow taking out all the mouthwash and the smell. I store my parifinilia in a small 4x4x3" watch box with a dryer sheet on the bottom and top of the box. I have never been caught by my dad (my mom caught me a few times when I lived with her only because she can take one look at me and tell if I have even had a sip of a beer lol)

i smoke blunts in my bathroom all the time and my dad doesnt notice...i just blow the smoke into the fan and keep the blunt under the fan that sucks air out... then i spray febreeze all over the bathroom and outside the bathroom door...i keep the door to the bathroom closed with the fan on for like 1-2 hours, spraying febreeze every 10 mins and a few sprays of cologne and the smell is completely gone by the time my dad comes home...
