Hi there, I'm the noob

[Jack Fraust]

I'm male.

I've been smoking since I was five.

just got myself the double joye eGo starter kit today.

origionally, I ordered Blu cause e1 complained about it.
they told me they didnt know when it would ship (after a week), hence canceled order.

I'll give this vape thing a go.

It kind of begs the question... I wonder how many of us were born addicted to nicotine? Back in ye olden tymes when I was born (heh, 1970, but still), it wasn't uncommon or frowned upon for expectant mothers to smoke...

Might explain a lot of "colic-y" babies.

Thank you all.

While overseas, I developed a taste for the cuban cigar. for some time, I have been growing my own tobbaccos for my personal hand-rolling (they are easy houseplants). the seeds for 4 strains (around 300 apiece) costs about half the price of a pack. I am interested in creating my personal "heph" (thats the name of my hand-rolls, printed on the band) flavor using the methods described. this should stretch my yeilds for each year with minimal costs.

I ordered my seeds from seedman.com

the cartmods are extreamly useful, I have settled on the Pyramid in a straw version.

excellent,

Best of luck with your vaping experience!

Welcome! You bring an interesting topic to the table too. Could almost be its own thread: What age did you start smoking?

I too was 5 when I smoked my first analog. Some older kids dared me to buy a pack (yup, in the 70's a tot could go to the store and buy a pack for mom or dad, no questions asked). It started a 33 year affair with the deadly 20.

May you enjoy the switch to vaping as much as I have!

I licked ashtrays when I was a toddler, sneaked my first smoke when I was 8 or so.

Welcome to ECF, Jack. You are going to love your new eGo!

 

[Jack Fraust]

yes, I have enjoyed it sofar.

I have to try not to chainvape while shopping for my evil laboratory.

The Ego is a great way to start. How did you start smoking when you were 5?

Welcome.

I think most of us chainvape in the beginning. I know I did. Certainly vaped more than I smoked. Kinda like a new toy, just can't put it down. But didn't have any problem kicking the smoking habit. Maybe because there wasn't time to smoke since I was vaping all the time.

The Ego is a great way to start. How did you start smoking when you were 5?

At the beginning of the 80's one of my schoolmates lifted a pack from his parents. He shared with us all. there were great hiding spots on the playground in some hollowed out bushes. living in a rual area, kids tend to go un-attended for great lengths of time.

I really enjoyed smoking, however I broke down and had an analog on my first day. not bad for a pack and a half a day-er.

I noticed that vaping changed my tastebuds abit and I found the analog extreamly foul.

woke up this morning and did not have my normal desire for a smoke.

I also ordered a large ammount of both PG and VG after setting up some havana leaf I personally cured in mason jars for taste and nic extraction.

added some coffie in its own extraction jar. waiting on the liquids order before I begin.

Initially I will not be testing nic levels, so I will add only a drop of nic extract at a time to unflavored juice untill I feel it is right.

Can't believe some have smoked since 5 years old! I thought I was bad for smoking at 14.

Ditch the smokes and you can now enjoy a vape after some Gates BBQ!

 

[Jack Fraust]

oh no,

I create very scrumptious bbq sauces of my own. various types including the mustard-based variety.

The physical effect of tomato-based bbq sauce basted onto a bacon-bluecheese burger is just awsome.

So, no gates for me.
