A Stoner's Guide to the Ideal Tolerance Break Times

 

 

For many years, you probably spent lots of time believing that smoking weed was something so simple that there’s nothing else to do but light a bong or a blunt up and get high. Well, here’s something you need to know: there’s more than meets the eye to the intricacy of smoking marijuana once you start diving deeper into the rabbit hole!

 

As you spend more years getting high and fine-tuning the experience that you have with every pot-smoking session, there are details that you’ll end up tinkering with at some point. Whether it’s the type of strains you use or the heat that you’re using to scorch your weed with, there are many details that you’ll need to play around with to achieve that “perfect high.”

 

Out of all the different details that you’ll end up encountering and learning as you understand the experience of getting high on a deeper level, there’s one that’s bound to pique your interest the most: Tolerance breaks.

 

What are tolerance breaks?

 

Commonly known as “T-breaks,” tolerance breaks are a set time period where you abstain from consuming any form of cannabis to reset your body and its interaction with THC, terpenes, and CBD. Often, such breaks are taken for more unforeseen or serious reasons, such as traveling to a country, applying for a new job, or undergoing surgery. 

 

Why should you do it?

 

Aside from urgent and more serious matters, there is a host of other reasons you should go ahead and take a break every once in a while.

 

For one, taking a break provides a much-needed refresh that will allow you to revitalize your succeeding experiences to easily foster a greater appreciation for being stone. On the other hand, T-breaks are also a great idea if you want to take a step back and reconfigure how the magical leaf will fit into your daily, weekly, or monthly routine in the best possible way! 

 

Recommended tolerance break durations according to your degree of stonerhood 

 

If there’s anything you need to know about T-breaks, is that the idea of an “ideal length” mainly depends on the level of exposure that you’ve had so far. To help guide your efforts in keeping the quality of your highs intact and improving your experiences in the long run, here’s a quick rundown of the ideal T-break durations according to your experience:

 

For beginners: A week

 

In the context of beginners, the way one can classify as such in terms of pot-smoking habits is if they’re a light user that only stocks up on week on a monthly basis at the earliest. 

 

If you’re someone who hits a cartridge every now and then or pops a gummy every once in a while, then a one-week T-break will work best because of your body’s relatively low tolerance. If you find yourself only getting high every other week, then there’s no doubt that you fall under this category.

 

For intermediate smokers: Ten days to two weeks

 

Once you start smoking or enjoying cannabis more often by getting high a few times a week, then you’re classified as an intermediate cannabis consumer. 

 

As someone in this classification, your fat cells aren’t necessarily at the state of being fully saturated with THC, but it’s definitely not as scarce as how things were when you started out. Taking the longer metabolizing period into consideration, it’s best to expect that a full flush to put your body back to equilibrium will last anywhere from 10 to 14 days! 

 

For expert smokers: Three to four weeks

 

Now that you’re getting high every day, your body’s composition is going to be partly made up of THC in your cells because of the constant exposure that you’re getting. This means that it will take longer for your CB1 receptors to refresh. Depending on your metabolism, body fat percentage, and biochemistry, the amount of weed in your system will take at least 21 days of no pot to completely flush out (but a max of a month off weed is best, to be safe).

 

Conclusion

 

Whether you’ve got a job application coming up or are keen on deepening the experience you have with weed, taking some much-needed time off with a t-break always makes for a good idea. If you’re looking to clean up and start anew for better experiences, then following this guide will help you best prepare for your detox in the best way possible!
