Smoking your weed out of a bong is essentially blazing it in one sitting; You can take massive tokes and enjoy a faster uptake and speedy onset of its effects. Ideally, a bong is made to get you stoned quicker and safer than any regular pipes. But this effect is dependent on how clean or dirty your bong is.

Solid substances and grime, dirt, tar, and toxins don't take long to build up in your bong water. Contaminated bong water might never filter microorganisms or even cool your smoke. But fresh water has the power to cool your smoke and give you smoother tokes that go straight to your lungs.
Dirty Bong Water
Bong water is the water that rests in your bong chamber to clean your smoke. It cleans your smoke by filtering substances like tar, toxins, and bits of cannabinoids such as THC. These substances quickly build up in your water, and one giveaway will be a bad taste and smell on your cannabis smoke. If the bong water is not changed regularly, you'll be risking your good health. Bacteria and mould love swimming in dirty bong water and they can cause respiratory issues.
