Can the risks of vaping cannabis be reduced by sucking into the cheek and only indirectly "inhaling" (lemmy.world)

This might sound really stupid (be gentle) but I wonder if some of the risks of directly and forcefully inhaling cannabis vapour can be attenuated by kind of sucking into one's cheek rather than directly unmediated the normal way and then indirectly sort of vaguely breathing it indirectly.

Any thoughts? I feel like it can't be that easy or it just doesn't work that way...

just want to add that the alcohol should be food grade ethanol (everclear is a brand in the US, idk about abroad)

95% alcohol, 190 proof

if you try this with regular booze it won't work, as the weed is hydrophobic and will separate.

don't do this with isopropyl.

you're going to be spraying this under your tongue so it should be pretty concentrated. try 5 droppers full of everclear + 4 droppers of oil (any food grade oil should be fine) to each gram of concentrate.

you can buy 1 oz spray bottles pretty easily. they're on amazon or there's probably a hippy store or something near you that has them. they're about the same size as a vape. people just think you're freshening up your breath.
