Can plants absorb nicotine?

[jdake3265]

I think it would be cool to see a study done on it so we could know for sure, but I don't that the coils get hot enough to change them. i think its more of, get a hot pan and drop some water on it, and it gets stuck in like a limbo phase where the liquid doesnt need to be at 212 (for water) but still acts like a gas. At least thats how I always pictured it in my head.

There is a cool video on youtube that shows the water thing When Water Flows Uphill - YouTube

I dont know if this is how it works but its kinda how I imagine it

dude that is fuggin aweome, like serIously sick

I found this link that may shed some light on this subject. Nicotine - Project:Vape

This study shows carbon monoxide CO, i don't think i have ever read anywhere in all of my research that says that CO is in vapor. Definitely in cigarette smoke, but that is because you are using combustion, CO is only present when you have a combustion reaction.

I don't think it s water vapor because it doesn't condensate, and it leaves a film on glass. The study also said that the levels of everything found in it are extremely low so it could just be trace amounts of CO...just a thought

The study actually measured a bunch of things besides CO. Here is a link to the results of the experiment. http://clearstream.flavourart.it/site/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/CSA_ItaEng.pdf

Maybe some Research needs to be Done? What does VG and PG break down into?

Seems like there are a lot of H's and O's bound together. And it would be a Chemical Reduction vs a Chemical Reaction?

VG and PG do not break down. Their intact molecules form aerosol droplets. Some study was performed for fog machines (much more powerful devices than even 100W low ohm drippers). I believe actors union was very much interested and paid for study. NO WATER IN VAPOR with exception of usual amount of water that lung produce when we exhale.

Could you point a phrase from a study that says CO was found in vapor? I have not seen one.

The following substances were measured for in the exhaled smoke and vapor.

Carbon monoxide CO
Nitrogen oxides NOx
Acrolein
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons PAHs
Volatile Organic Compounds VOC
Total Organic Carbon TOC
Nicotine
Glycerine and propylene glycol (components of the electronic cigarettes fluids)

It was measured. Was it found?

There is H2O in vapor. Both on the inhale and exhale...it's in the air.

Huge clouds when the humidity is over 90%. When pulled over the coil the vape gets moisturized a bit. On the exhale is when air humidity has the biggest effect. The exhaled vapor produces a nucleation site for the water vapor in the air to condense.

I was wondering if plants could absorb nicotine if you exhaled on them for a continued period of time, or in a controlled area. I don't know what section this should be in so that is why i'm posting it here. This seems like it would be a good experiment to see if "second hand vapor" is in fact legitimate. I'm not sure if it is, but plants absorb whatever is in the atmosphere they live in so i'm curious if you were to exhale your vapor into a closed off enclosure with a plant, over time maybe it would absorb the nicotine and the water.

I don't know, but I had a boss once who would dump out her old coffee from her cup into her office plant and it killed it.

...

You would Kinda think So.

Why don't you Post a link to that. We would all like to see it.

have you ever exhaled through a paper towel? it is soaking wet when you are done.

that is what i am saying, i have never seen one either, some other member shared a study that said there was.

 

[TomGeorge]

I had miss read that, my bad. Idk if it was found then

 

[TomGeorge]

I dont think that makes a case for it being water tho. I am also confused as to if we are talking about e-juice turning into water vapor or just if there is water vapor present, saying its coming from the outside air or our lungs.

i don't know where it comes from, all i know is that when i exhale through a screen door or a paper towel it is wet wherever you exhale at.
