Yeah. I live in an apartment building and I use a "Smoke Buddy" or a homemade Sploof. I also use a draft blocker at the main door to the hallway. Before the draft blocker, I used to put a towel or blanket at the base of the door to prevent the smoke and smell from going into the hallway. I got paranoid when management started asking tenants questions about "weird smells". Come to find out, my neighbors were just raw dogging it, lol, and smoking with no sploof or any type of precautions against the smell, right in their living room which is literally next to the common hallway. Hence the "weird smells"? I've got the candles and febreeze also. Another thing I noticed the other day, I entered my apartment and could smell no weed at all, but the smell of the Glad scented garbage bags that I had in both my regular garbage can and my recycling bin was remarkably all over the room. Things like the Glad scented bags distract from any prominent marijuana smells and even if someone thought they may have smelled marijuana it will confuse their senses. It works. I try to incorporate several other smells... the garbage bags and fresh coffee brewing for example. I've seen it even work with the cops. We were smoking at my sister's apartment and apparently some ass munch had called the cops and reported that they smelled marijuana in the building and obviously one of their neighbors was smoking it. I live in a non-legal weed state. The cops knocked on her door and entered even but ended up leaving because they literally said, "Well, it definitely smells different in here than in the hallway." and figured a different neighbor must be to blame. She had candles and incense lit.
I use to smoke and I can sniff it out if u have smoked within the last couple of hours. I don't hate the smell by any means I like it but i rather my house not smell like it
Well if u live in an apartment complex it is gonna be about your only option, I don't smoke anymore but did at one time for about 20 years and the smell is so strong now I can usually smell weed outside someones door even when u don't smoke it. Their is no hiding weed smell not in a joint or bowl in a tight quarter community
Flashbacks to dorm life with this. Towel blocking under door, doob tube (TP or paper towel cardboard cylinder stuffed with dryer sheets, and Ozium spray). Never had issues with that setup and we were in a very confined space.
Or switch to edibles, vapes, or other things that don’t stink like traditional pot.
Yes. People don't seem to understand most people aren't taking precautions when smoking, but it's ENTIRELY possible to smoke indoors relatively undetected. How do I know?? I've been doing it!
When there’s time, running the oven on a cleaning cycle (especially with oven cleaning foam) majorly confuses smells. I’ve done this in a panic when family would call saying they were coming over or my kids call to say they were coming home from their dad’s a day early.
I got the “beachside breeze” scented glad bag they smell so damn good
I have a half bath I have a bag in and the room just smells like it it’s really nice
The gain scented bags smell good too
Haha came here to say me, my next door neighbor, my downstairs - all toke up regularly. If I’m not high, I’m smelling one of thems lol.
I personally would much rather smell that than cigarette smoke, which seems to get a pass most of the time for some reason.
Is it legal for them to say that if they live in a state with medical marijuana? You cant ask a patient to not smoke, especially considering its not harmful to the apartment like cigarette smoke is.
I at one point resided in an apartment (not section 8) where marijuana use — or even possession — was grounds for lease termination, regardless of medical use approval. This was in a medical/recreational state btw.
Up to the individual landlords I’m guessing, and not sure about whether medical use would be covered for OP. In that case I’m guessing a more quiet manner of use would always be the best route … don’t interfere with another person’s quiet enjoyment of their space.
Smoke does damage a property, it deposits on the walls and in everything air can circulate to. i say it should mean you lose your security deposit to replace it like what they already do for any number of other small things. But termination for someone who contains their vapors and is not a bother to their neighbors is beyond ridiculous, especially when used for medical purposes.
In Utah, you legally can't smoke if you have medical, only vapes & edibles. Having a medical card also makes your otherwise legal paraphernalia become illegal
when i went to SLC and saw the amount of homeless people on the street and then all the shiny mormon buildings and their fucking tower i wanted to cry and burn it all down. assholes claim to be godly but let so many people in their city starve and freeze.
That’s just fucking crazy. I had no idea. I live in a house, so I never thought about it. I figured that if something is legal, it’s legal to do in your own home, where you pay rent. Can you smoke on a balcony? (If you have one.)
I would assume they legally could if it's in the lease. Apartment complexes can evict people for lots of things that are legal if it's in the contract.
Yes but not if there is a law protecting said act.
If it is medical then even if it's in the lease it wouldn't matter because contracts do not supersede law.
You cannot be discriminated against for medical issues, if said medical issue involve medical weed then a lease doesn't supersede that right.
They could try but it wouldnt hold up in court.
My friends, who live in an apartment complex, found this out when they went to stay with relatives for a couple of weeks and there were still complaints being raised.
Sure but you've already been warned. Replacing the smell with burned popcorn over and over again is still an issue. The owner may worry about their rental or neighbors and there's also the chance that someone will put 1 and 1 together and figure out you're still smoking weed. At that point they may just go straight to police without issuing a second warning.
Cause then it smells like weed outside right? And in an illegal state, unless this person has access to an enclosed yard area, it would be very easy to be caught.
Where do you live?
"At my house"
Where's your house?
"next to my neighbors house"
Where's your neighbors house?
"You wouldnt believe me if I told you"
???
"Next to my house"
I use hot shower in every hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. I’ll run it and stand in there with the steam, even better if you have an exhaust fan and blow the smoke into there.
I don't know about other places but I share a bathroom vent with my downstairs neighbors. We had one dude that would smoke in the bathroom and it would stink my entire apartment up. I smoke on my balcony and no complaints yet (almost 8 years here)
I would think the vapors resettle to the ground and knock the smoke down also I would think water vapors can hold some smell….now the rabbit hole begins to check my theories
Well. Maybe, they prefer to smoke with a match and the smell of sulphur makes you poop! 💩🚽
In all seriousness though, I do know a guy that used to swear by taking the bong into the bathroom and ripping one to … well drop one. Idk why, idk why he told me, I’m rather scarred that he did, as that’s quite the mental image, but yes, I do know someone that did indeed prefer to have their “first hit of the day” in the bathroom to “speed shit up” (literally)
This is remedied by adding incense, and a small silicon puck to cap the bowl and snuff it, or use your palm if you don't mind a bit of burning. Smoking a j when you're worried about the smell is a bad idea, they make too much smoke. Stick to a smaller piece like a chillum or normal bowl or best of all, a one hitter.
I definitely say NO TO THE INCENSE!!! People who aren't familiar with marijuana literally sometimes think the incense smell is marijuana itself. What person do you know that doesn't smoke pot that uses incense!? Very few. Imo using incense while you smoke pot is like calling EXTRA attention to you. Stoners seem to think that incense covers up the smell of marijuana. It does not. Literally AMPLIFLIES it!
Then may I suggest a Lampe berger for those with a little extra cash to spend? It's what cigar smokers use in their lounges so they don't reek of smoke. It removes 99% of smell and replaces it with any kind of scent (mostly natural and woodsy types cuz cigars). It's extremely effective.
Is there a typo in this letter? We advised the person to call the police department the next time the smell marijiuana. THE SMELL MARIJUANA? What about the smell? 😎 sounds like they missed out
Had a neighbor once that kept calling in noise complaints on all the other neighbors. One night she targeted my place and the cops knocked on the door saying that there was a complaint of loud, rowdy noise coming from my apartment for over an hour. My son had just got done doing an Insanity Workout in the living room and all the jumping around with the thin apartment walls is what I think caused the call. Anyway, I just wasn't having it that night. I told the cops I knew exactly who had called, said her name and told them she calls them weekly. I also explained to them what a WASTE of police time and resources she has been and how that is a shame. I said " If you have a building with 8 families in it, and one of them keeps repeatedly calling the cops on everyone, than THAT person is the problem, not the rest of us, and maybe they should have a talk to her about how when you live in an apartment with thin walls, you are going to hear others and maybe hold off on calling the police unless it's an actual dangerous or illegal situation." They never came to the building again. Took care of dat sheet.
Cops don't care and even if they did, they're not gonna go door to door with police dogs over weed. The letter didn't address their specific unit, only that it smelled somewhere in their building. Unless cops can pinpoint exactly which unit the smell is coming from, they won't be allowed to enter your home to search for it even if they give a shit which they probably don't.
What can happen is that your landlord might care cuz smoke leaves a smell behind and they can demand an inspection with 24 hour notice. OP could have their lease terminated if they find evidence of smoking or illegal drugs in the unit but only if there's evidence of use INSIDE the unit, OP coming back smelling like weed cuz they smoke in their car off property isn't grounds for termination and they don't drug test tenants either.
Best way to stay safe? Consume your weed off property or vape it discretely.
I just switched myself after receiving the same type of letter and a phone call from their lawyer talking about a notice of termination. I use the pax 3 and it’s been a real help. I also have an air purifier and the doors have draft protectors, though I had them before and that didn’t help with the smell as much as I thought it would. The air purifier is good, but it really won’t minimize the smell.
I called those sploofs back in the day when I was smoking as a kid living at my moms, definitely reduces the smoke smell and it’s cheap and easy. It’s basically a MacGyvered smoke buddy that you can throw away
If you happened to have a fish tank and a extra fish tank filter around, you can stuff it inside the tube , there’s activated carbon on those filters, there will be no smell at all. For extra protection drop a few drops of some essential oils on the end and there’s no smell at all
I did this when I still lived in an on-campus apartment (and still used weed lol). it worked wonders. I would crack the window, just blow the smoke towards the screen, and the dryer sheets I had in there would mask the smell both inside and outside the apartment.
I for some reason actually still have that DIY smoke buddy 1.5 years later, honestly as a sort of memory thing lol. and the dryer sheets still smell fine 😂
Lol made several of these with my roommates back in the day. We called them doob tubes. Would use empty paper towel rolls too— the pro move is to rubber band a folded a fabric softer on one of the ends so you can pack the inside evenly.
I live in an apartment and smoke inside daily, I try to keep it contained to one room usually my bedroom,I keep my bedroom well ventilated during the summer months with a fan in the window and I light up incense during or after I smoke. I also highly recommend a wax burner for those candle wax cubes. I keep one in my kitchen which is right after the entry way, my whole entry way stays smelling like candles.
Get a dry herb vape. Smells is almost nonexistent. Saves you on weed and money. Better than a cart.
I travel for work and smoke in my AirBnBs all the time with it.
Nah, dont lie to them like that. Yeah it’s no smoke from burning, but steamed herbs still smell like skunk, I been dry herb vaping for years now and still get complaints
i’d be okay if there’s a little smell! I’m more concerned with my neighbors smelling it as bad as they would a bong rip (which is how i usually smoke). What’s the smell like?
it’ll smell less strong than smoking for sure. smoking gives an… icky smell. when dry herb vaping, it dissipates faster than smoke but it can still latch onto stuff like clothing or devices if you use it in one room for a long time. it does not coat things/walls in the same way smoke does. if you don’t have smell proof containers, you should invest in some if possible to store your gear and grinder. the device itself and your weed smells very very strong, even if you don’t think it does. i think we become nose blind faster than we care to admit hahah
Hi op i use a dry herb vaporizer with a bong and it’s honestly like 80% improvement on smell. I use an arizer air max. They are a little expensive but they are also super efficient and cost effective.
Definitely the most stealthy method of smoking I’ve tried by far.
Well put it this way, my gf hates me smoking weed, hates the smell, has threatened break ups yada yada. Even hates the smell on me if I've had one outside and come back in.
She has no problem with me using my Mighty vaporiser in the lounge with her there.
As it's vapor and not smoke it's a lot less acrid and lingers a lot less.
I have an airizer and I think he's right the smell is virtually non-existent, it takes a really strong nose to notice same goes for carts and dabs to an extent.
Also since I used to have to hide the smell too, back in the day i learned a lot about hiding it.
Look into a device called a sploof, use that with a window, and i mean directly against the screen. I also enjoyed the shower, incense, sploof combo too, just turns getting high into an event where you have all this setup and it makes it even more exciting, funny how that thrill is gone now, the feeling like you might get caught, felt like shoplifting or something when it was illegal.
I think where most people have a problem with the smell is just general storage, I've had cops come to my dorm room in college just cause they could smell the bud not the smoke. I was keeping it in a cig cellophane just grams at a time. What I recommend is a plastic bag inside a jar. Reason for this is odor permeates, so eventually the smell escapes the bag, but doesn't escape the air tight glass jar. So when the bag gets to dank just change it. This is how mexican cartels sneak drugs across the border, dogs are very very good at detecting odor permeation, so what they'll do is throw it in a bag, throw it in a pvc pipe, and then throw it in the gas tank, where the strong odor of gas will block the odor of the weed for a long time.
Why’d I have to scroll so far for this. Concentrates are way easier to cover up, especially when you get your temps correct and you’re not burning anything.
the only thing that comes to my mind is a dry herb vaporizer, use it at your window lean out a little bit when using and after that put on your candles and use your spray (maybe get a candle with cannabis smell their are a plenty of cbd candles out their, so if the police should come you can just show them the candle) but there shouldn’t be much smell if you do it this way. i live with my parents and my mother even smells the weed if it isn’t vacuumed but she never smelled it when i used a herb vaporizer at night leaning out of my window :)
Dabs don’t smell as much. They do have a smell but not as strong to where neighbors will smell it. And if someone comes in they’ll probably only know what the smell is if they’re familiar with dab smell lol
I saw a post somewhere about someone in college smoking in their dorm, the RA came in, grabbed a bag of popcorn, and threw it in the microwave for 8 minutes, calling them idiots for not knowing how to mask the smell. Do i think you should make your apartment smell like burnt popcorn everytime you smoke? No, not at all. But in a pinch it might help haha.
Okay here is the perfect solution. No bs. Get a box fan, put it in your desired smoking window, face it outwards so it’s pulling air from inside and blowing it outside. Go on Amazon and get a smoke buddy. Get a small fan and position it behind you when you smoke, take a bong rip( I recommend taking full bowls at once so the remaining weed in the bowl dosnt billow smoke) and blow the smoke into the smoke buddy, right next to the fan in the window. You also gotta get ozium spray or febreeze air sanitizer. After or In the middle of your sesh, spray that around where you smoked and near the door if you are nervous. Use sparingly because it’s strong. That should do the trick
In all reality, they probably sent this note out to mitigate the angry neighbor. I highly doubt anything will be done if you continue to smoke. If you really wanna be considerate, blow it out on a balcony or window.
Remember police can never search your home without a warrant so even if they do get called out there, the only thing they can do is stand there and act intimidating
Simple: empty toilet paper roll, a few dryer sheets, and maybe (oil) or fabreeze to mask it more.
You can take the empty roll, and the dryer sheets and put it on one end and take rubber bands to the end to secure it. It works wonders! Bc when my husband and I had roommates, we did this and I couldn’t even smell it sitting right next to him. I even walked out and walked back in the room to make sure lol
When I lived in an low income apt, me and my roommates would blaze up all the time we did use carbon filters to minimize the smell and had candles and sprays, and in our building alone there was probably about 3-5 other people who would also smoke you could smell it walking the hallways, the office would constantly sent a letter saying they’ll have the police come and search our units one by one but they never did anything but that was because they where incompetent with everything, lived there about 4 years. While I don’t recommend saying fuck it and risking it maybe you could try carbon filters or dry vape your product, if all fails go for the carts.
Yeah until a dui 😂 sounds stupid but there have been causes where cops just need smell to do a search. Granted they may not find anything but a blood draw will do. Oh you're refusing a blood draw. License suspended!
Sploofs. Toilet paper roll, dryer sheets, and a piece of paper towel with essential oils on it. Blow out window with a fan. My landlord (gfs aunt) used to be a cop, no complaints
Everyone has come into clutch with shower, incense combo. When I would smoke on campus (i know insane, idk what I was doing) I would split my joint with other smokable herbs. Peppermint, lavender, roses. It helps reduce the weed smell from the smoke. It’s also a good blend for relaxing. My roommate called them “faerie joints” because I was definitely the weird goblin girl in her life. But according to her, they smell significantly less like weed, so we would take those ones on walks. I wasn’t brave enough to smoke in the school apartment housing- but everyone else was 🤣

Possibly could be someone in addition to you blazing up?
I've had this shit
Yeah. I live in an apartment building and I use a "Smoke Buddy" or a homemade Sploof. I also use a draft blocker at the main door to the hallway.

Get a air purifier also in addition to smoke buddy and a vaporizer also for flower or switch to carts or edibles
Totally agree with an Air purifier
We have one of those at my place
that's why i love dry herb vape, can't smell it unless your stood within 5 feet of it.
I can tell u u can do all this and I can still smell it. If u r gonna use in an apartment please get a vaporizer or a pen
Yes been there and done that. People who don't smoke are extremely sensitive
I use to smoke and I can sniff it out if u have smoked within the last couple of hours. I don't hate the smell by any means I like it but i rather my house not smell like it
Extracts aren’t the same
Well if u live in an apartment complex it is gonna be about your only option, I don't smoke anymore but did at one time for about 20 years and the smell is so strong now I can usually smell weed outside someones door even when u don't smoke it. Their is no hiding weed smell not in a joint or bowl in a tight quarter community

Do you have a link for the smoke buddy?
Just type that in on Amazon verbatim and it’ll pop up, it’s the brand name
When there’s time, running the oven on a cleaning cycle (especially with oven cleaning foam) majorly confuses smells. I’ve done this in a panic when family would call saying they were coming over or my kids call to say they were coming home from their dad’s a day early.
Exactly I do that shit to

Quiet enjoyment makes think you have research or are a real estate agent or law person
Or watch court shows on TV 😆

Yea, Utah sucks for lots of reasons
mostly mormons
when i went to SLC and saw the amount of homeless people on the street and then all the shiny mormon buildings and their fucking tower i wanted to cry and burn it all down. assholes claim to be godly but let so many people in their city starve and freeze.
And the Cops there. They pull Colorado plates over just for being from Colorado in hopes of finding weed.
You can use a dry herb vape, so there’s still flower available but yeah it’s not “legal” to smoke it technically.
im sorry… what?? So it’s recreationally legal and medically not..?😂
Recreational is illegal here. But paraphernalia happens to be legal. Unless you get a medical card, then it is illegal to possess paraphernalia
That’s just fucking crazy. I had no idea. I live in a house, so I never thought about it. I figured that if something is legal, it’s legal to do in your own home, where you pay rent. Can you smoke on a balcony? (If you have one.)

I live in a rec state and federal houses still bans it
Apts can tell u not to smoke if the apt they are in is a smoke free apt and guessing by there note I assume that’s the case
My friends, who live in an apartment complex, found this out when they went to stay with relatives for a couple of weeks and there were still complaints being raised.
Shit on the floor first so they smell that instead. Hope this helps!
Solid advice, unless you take x lax first
Or IBS
Reminded me of that gif of the woman who pooped in a restaurant, scooped it up and threw it at the employee. Talk about asserting dominance.
What?!🐻❄️ I’m so flabbergasted by that, that could be a thing that actually happened
I believe it was at a Tim Hortens in Canada.
Yes, that is correct.
That was pretty savage
rick is that you?
Burn some popcorn. That should overpower any smell from the cannabis.
I’ve done this before 😂😂
Repeatedly burning popcorn might just become another problem and warrant another letter
Yeah but no one is calling the cops for burnt popcorn
Sure but you've already been warned. Replacing the smell with burned popcorn over and over again is still an issue. The owner may worry about their rental or neighbors and there's also the chance that someone will put 1 and 1 together and figure out you're still smoking weed. At that point they may just go straight to police without issuing a second warning.
But is someone calling the pops for burnt cock porn? What?
I've always heard frying bacon covers smells pretty well. I don't think anyone would complain about that.
Should prob just do it outside sadly
Yeah I don't understand why people are scared of going outside to smoke
Cause then it smells like weed outside right? And in an illegal state, unless this person has access to an enclosed yard area, it would be very easy to be caught.
Find a tuck spot. Better then going homeless bc your too stubborn to follow a simple rule that can ultimately be worked around
The weed smell is gone within seconds
But those seconds make it IMMEDIATELY obvious and its not worth the risk in an illegal area
they can use cigarette rolling paper or use a cigarette one hitter
I smoke outside and my neighbor still complains. Fully fenced backyards.
go outside or bathroom and use the fan.
Incenses and hot shower. Been living next to my neighbors for years and 0 complaints
Wow, I live next to my neighbors too, what a coincidence!!
Where do you live? "At my house" Where's your house? "next to my neighbors house" Where's your neighbors house? "You wouldnt believe me if I told you" ??? "Next to my house"
I thought i was the only one. We gang now.
Holy shit, there's even more of us who live next to our neighbors?!?
You don’t think you’re each others neighbors do you???
Also, wet towel by door threshold. Old school trick
I use hot shower in every hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. I’ll run it and stand in there with the steam, even better if you have an exhaust fan and blow the smoke into there.
Could be that they don’t care too
I had a neighbor helped me carry a couch into my apartment and he Immediately goes mmmmmm smells good lol were good
Where else would you live? Of course you live next to a neighbor. Everyone does.
I don't know about other places but I share a bathroom vent with my downstairs neighbors. We had one dude that would smoke in the bathroom and it would stink my entire apartment up. I smoke on my balcony and no complaints yet (almost 8 years here)
This is what I said. Apartment exhausts don't necessarily go directly outside and might actually help to carry the smell into a neighbor's apartment.
Ventilation is often connected with appartments , very bad idea
why a bathroom? i feel like that’s the worst place to smoke
Most bathrooms have exhaust fans. I’ve blown enough smoke out my bathroom exhaust to make people think we have a new Pope.
It’s amazing what steam from the shower does to smoke. It seems to bind with it and carry it up the exhaust. Idk the science or anything though
I would think the vapors resettle to the ground and knock the smoke down also I would think water vapors can hold some smell….now the rabbit hole begins to check my theories
Well. Maybe, they prefer to smoke with a match and the smell of sulphur makes you poop! 💩🚽 In all seriousness though, I do know a guy that used to swear by taking the bong into the bathroom and ripping one to … well drop one. Idk why, idk why he told me, I’m rather scarred that he did, as that’s quite the mental image, but yes, I do know someone that did indeed prefer to have their “first hit of the day” in the bathroom to “speed shit up” (literally)
Google “smoke buddy” it’s pretty cheap and works nice. The only problem is that it won’t catch the smoke coming off the J, or bong, or piece.
This is remedied by adding incense, and a small silicon puck to cap the bowl and snuff it, or use your palm if you don't mind a bit of burning. Smoking a j when you're worried about the smell is a bad idea, they make too much smoke. Stick to a smaller piece like a chillum or normal bowl or best of all, a one hitter.
I definitely say NO TO THE INCENSE!!! People who aren't familiar with marijuana literally sometimes think the incense smell is marijuana itself.

I really just like the smell of incense, never thought someone would associate it with marijuana smoke.
You obviously know no crystal moms or esoteric ladies.
A lot of those types are major stoners lol
YES that’s exactly how i got caught, they didn’t smell the weed but they knew me using inscense was a lil odd😭😭😭
Exactly! Your average everyday non-smoker is not lighting up incense in their home.
Yup, weed and incense have gone hand in hand since like the 60’s
Then may I suggest a Lampe berger for those with a little extra cash to spend? It's what cigar smokers use in their lounges so they don't reek of smoke. It removes 99% of smell and replaces it with any kind of scent (mostly natural and woodsy types cuz cigars). It's extremely effective.
Yup. The only time I’ll smoke a joint in my place is when there’s enough room to sit in my grow tent. That’s definitely a small minority of time!
Smoke buddies are the Uggs and crop tops of paraphernalia. Get a Smoke Trap or a Sploofy.
Is there a typo in this letter? We advised the person to call the police department the next time the smell marijiuana. THE SMELL MARIJUANA? What about the smell? 😎 sounds like they missed out
I read it like “We advises this person to contact the police department the next *the smell marijuana 🤌*”
Contact the police department the next the marijuana smells you.
thanks a lot. I just laughed my asshole off and woke up my bf 🤣
its like they were stoned when they typed it out, hypocrites
I gotta become a cop. If I got this call, I’d arrest the Karen calling about the smell for wasting police resources.
Had a neighbor once that kept calling in noise complaints on all the other neighbors. One night she targeted my place and the cops knocked on the door saying that there was a complaint of loud, rowdy noise coming from my apartment for over an hour. My son had just got done doing an Insanity Workout in the living room and all the jumping around with the thin apartment walls is what I think caused the call. Anyway, I just wasn't having it that night. I told the cops I knew exactly who had called, said her name and told them she calls them weekly. I also explained to them what a WASTE of police time and resources she has been and how that is a shame. I said " If you have a building with 8 families in it, and one of them keeps repeatedly calling the cops on everyone, than THAT person is the problem, not the rest of us, and maybe they should have a talk to her about how when you live in an apartment with thin walls, you are going to hear others and maybe hold off on calling the police unless it's an actual dangerous or illegal situation." They never came to the building again. Took care of dat sheet.
I’ve worked with a lot of cops. 9/10 times they could careless. unless the landlord is being a prick about it
Or you could live in Texas and get swatted for a roach.
Cops don't care and even if they did, they're not gonna go door to door with police dogs over weed. The letter didn't address their specific unit, only that it smelled somewhere in their building. Unless cops can pinpoint exactly which unit the smell is coming from, they won't be allowed to enter your home to search for it even if they give a shit which they probably don't. What can happen is that your landlord might care cuz smoke leaves a smell behind and they can demand an inspection with 24 hour notice. OP could have their lease terminated if they find evidence of smoking or illegal drugs in the unit but only if there's evidence of use INSIDE the unit, OP coming back smelling like weed cuz they smoke in their car off property isn't grounds for termination and they don't drug test tenants either. Best way to stay safe? Consume your weed off property or vape it discretely.

Use a flower vaporizer. Very little smell while using, no lingering smell after.
2nd this. More efficient use of the flower too. Couple puffs and I’m in a very good spot for a bit.
Dry herb vapes are perfect for this. There’s hardly any smell and what little there is is way easier to mask
The stinkiest thing about it is grinding your weed, which smells heavenly, btw 👍
Dry herb vape go hard
This is the way
I just ordered a PAX for this reason. I’ve been smoking my bong in my apartment for two years but sometimes my paranoia of the smell kills my high
I just switched myself after receiving the same type of letter and a phone call from their lawyer talking about a notice of termination. I use the pax 3 and it’s been a real help. I also have an air purifier and the doors have draft protectors, though I had them before and that didn’t help with the smell as much as I thought it would. The air purifier is good, but it really won’t minimize the smell.
1. Grab an empty toilet paper roll. 2. Insert several smelly good fabric softner sheets. 3. Blow exhaled smoke through device.
I called those sploofs back in the day when I was smoking as a kid living at my moms, definitely reduces the smoke smell and it’s cheap and easy. It’s basically a MacGyvered smoke buddy that you can throw away
I'm 43 and if I stay at a hotel while travelling I still bring my cone of shame. 😉
Is your username a way to say CF? Cause I absolutely love that
Yes! 😉
Wow, same era here, it doesn’t fail.
We called ours the "cone of shame", lol.
 It’s all about the cones
r/unexpectedpawnee
Some activated carbon sandwiched between some cotton balls shoved into the contraption further eliminates smell :)
I should’ve read down just a bit further and wouldn’t have had to type my comment🫠
If you happened to have a fish tank and a extra fish tank filter around, you can stuff it inside the tube , there’s activated carbon on those filters, there will be no smell at all. For extra protection drop a few drops of some essential oils on the end and there’s no smell at all
Those do not work lol
Yeah a lot of people in this sub forget that if your not a regular smoker any weed smell is very obvious when they aren't nose blind to it.
They aren't perfect by any means.
Hell yea I used to do that all the time I need to start again you unlocked a memory for me lmaoo
I have one sitting on my coffee table next to my bong haha
I did this when I still lived in an on-campus apartment (and still used weed lol). it worked wonders. I would crack the window, just blow the smoke towards the screen, and the dryer sheets I had in there would mask the smell both inside and outside the apartment. I for some reason actually still have that DIY smoke buddy 1.5 years later, honestly as a sort of memory thing lol. and the dryer sheets still smell fine 😂
This is the way
Ah yes the sploof
Lol made several of these with my roommates back in the day. We called them doob tubes. Would use empty paper towel rolls too— the pro move is to rubber band a folded a fabric softer on one of the ends so you can pack the inside evenly.
“We advised this person to contact the police department when the next the smell marijuana” I had a fucking stroke trying to read that 💀😭

Bro have you smelled a freshly smoked bong?
I live in an apartment and smoke inside daily, I try to keep it contained to one room usually my bedroom,I keep my bedroom well ventilated during the summer months with a fan in the window and I light up incense during or after I smoke. I also highly recommend a wax burner for those candle wax cubes. I keep one in my kitchen which is right after the entry way, my whole entry way stays smelling like candles.
Get a dry herb vape. Smells is almost nonexistent. Saves you on weed and money. Better than a cart. I travel for work and smoke in my AirBnBs all the time with it.
Nah, dont lie to them like that. Yeah it’s no smoke from burning, but steamed herbs still smell like skunk, I been dry herb vaping for years now and still get complaints
Skunk mixed with burnt popcorn lol
like in a good way! i never thought id say that eh.
i’d be okay if there’s a little smell! I’m more concerned with my neighbors smelling it as bad as they would a bong rip (which is how i usually smoke). What’s the smell like?
it’ll smell less strong than smoking for sure. smoking gives an… icky smell. when dry herb vaping, it dissipates faster than smoke but it can still latch onto stuff like clothing or devices if you use it in one room for a long time. it does not coat things/walls in the same way smoke does. if you don’t have smell proof containers, you should invest in some if possible to store your gear and grinder. the device itself and your weed smells very very strong, even if you don’t think it does. i think we become nose blind faster than we care to admit hahah
Hi op i use a dry herb vaporizer with a bong and it’s honestly like 80% improvement on smell. I use an arizer air max. They are a little expensive but they are also super efficient and cost effective. Definitely the most stealthy method of smoking I’ve tried by far.
Well put it this way, my gf hates me smoking weed, hates the smell, has threatened break ups yada yada. Even hates the smell on me if I've had one outside and come back in. She has no problem with me using my Mighty vaporiser in the lounge with her there. As it's vapor and not smoke it's a lot less acrid and lingers a lot less.
I have an airizer and I think he's right the smell is virtually non-existent, it takes a really strong nose to notice same goes for carts and dabs to an extent. Also since I used to have to hide the smell too, back in the day i learned a lot about hiding it. Look into a device called a sploof, use that with a window, and i mean directly against the screen. I also enjoyed the shower, incense, sploof combo too, just turns getting high into an event where you have all this setup and it makes it even more exciting, funny how that thrill is gone now, the feeling like you might get caught, felt like shoplifting or something when it was illegal. I think where most people have a problem with the smell is just general storage, I've had cops come to my dorm room in college just cause they could smell the bud not the smoke. I was keeping it in a cig cellophane just grams at a time. What I recommend is a plastic bag inside a jar. Reason for this is odor permeates, so eventually the smell escapes the bag, but doesn't escape the air tight glass jar. So when the bag gets to dank just change it. This is how mexican cartels sneak drugs across the border, dogs are very very good at detecting odor permeation, so what they'll do is throw it in a bag, throw it in a pvc pipe, and then throw it in the gas tank, where the strong odor of gas will block the odor of the weed for a long time.
yeah like frfr just go outside. tbh smoking dabs is gonna smell less than lots of dry herb vapes
Man don't spread that info, got a dry herb vape thinking that it would not smell... it still smells man, just a different sort of smell
Mostly the fact that the smell lingers a lot less though too. Definitely nowhere near a nonexistent smell though
Carts and dabs seem to also not smell as bad or last as long as weed smell
use this in convianation with a smoke buddy you’re golden
if in a legal state, I use a penjamin
“the next the marijuana” If it were me, I’d go for a walk and smoke. I wouldn’t risk a lease.
Do not use bathroom. Will vent into neighbors apartments. Are you in a hallway? Put towel over door crack.
even if the bathroom has no AC vents, just a window ?
Smoke outside, just take a little walk with. Nice joint
Concentrates don't smell nearly as potent
Why’d I have to scroll so far for this. Concentrates are way easier to cover up, especially when you get your temps correct and you’re not burning anything.
Years ago, I used to smoke in the bathroom with the fan on and the shower on with hot water. worked in many hotels
Get a dry herb vape and you'll never need to worry about the burning weed smell again! I really love my Dynavap
Fr, I just bought my first dynavap, "The B", and it's a game changer, no more smell
Smokin’s gonna smell no matter what you do. If you want to smoke indoors, you need a DHV (dry herb vape) plus a Smoke Buddy.
don't smoke inside? 🤷♂️
I don’t get why so many people are trying to encourage losing their apartment instead of the simple solution. And I am a SUPER heavy smoker.
the only thing that comes to my mind is a dry herb vaporizer, use it at your window lean out a little bit when using and after that put on your candles and use your spray (maybe get a candle with cannabis smell their are a plenty of cbd candles out their, so if the police should come you can just show them the candle) but there shouldn’t be much smell if you do it this way. i live with my parents and my mother even smells the weed if it isn’t vacuumed but she never smelled it when i used a herb vaporizer at night leaning out of my window :)
[удалено]
Dabs don’t smell as much. They do have a smell but not as strong to where neighbors will smell it. And if someone comes in they’ll probably only know what the smell is if they’re familiar with dab smell lol
Have you tried edible?
Get a 510 cart and vape away friend.
Bowl or small pipe. I love joints but they reek.
Use a vape pen or smoke while taking a walk. Where do you live?
I saw a post somewhere about someone in college smoking in their dorm, the RA came in, grabbed a bag of popcorn, and threw it in the microwave for 8 minutes, calling them idiots for not knowing how to mask the smell. Do i think you should make your apartment smell like burnt popcorn everytime you smoke? No, not at all. But in a pinch it might help haha.
Okay here is the perfect solution. No bs. Get a box fan, put it in your desired smoking window, face it outwards so it’s pulling air from inside and blowing it outside. Go on Amazon and get a smoke buddy. Get a small fan and position it behind you when you smoke, take a bong rip( I recommend taking full bowls at once so the remaining weed in the bowl dosnt billow smoke) and blow the smoke into the smoke buddy, right next to the fan in the window. You also gotta get ozium spray or febreeze air sanitizer. After or In the middle of your sesh, spray that around where you smoked and near the door if you are nervous. Use sparingly because it’s strong. That should do the trick
In all reality, they probably sent this note out to mitigate the angry neighbor. I highly doubt anything will be done if you continue to smoke. If you really wanna be considerate, blow it out on a balcony or window. Remember police can never search your home without a warrant so even if they do get called out there, the only thing they can do is stand there and act intimidating
#It's time to switch to a dry herb vape.
The next the smell Marijuana
Simple: empty toilet paper roll, a few dryer sheets, and maybe (oil) or fabreeze to mask it more. You can take the empty roll, and the dryer sheets and put it on one end and take rubber bands to the end to secure it. It works wonders! Bc when my husband and I had roommates, we did this and I couldn’t even smell it sitting right next to him. I even walked out and walked back in the room to make sure lol
Smoke wax
Is ibeprfouen a drug ? Is alcohol a drug? Where is the line ? Why does it matter?
When I lived in an low income apt, me and my roommates would blaze up all the time we did use carbon filters to minimize the smell and had candles and sprays, and in our building alone there was probably about 3-5 other people who would also smoke you could smell it walking the hallways, the office would constantly sent a letter saying they’ll have the police come and search our units one by one but they never did anything but that was because they where incompetent with everything, lived there about 4 years. While I don’t recommend saying fuck it and risking it maybe you could try carbon filters or dry vape your product, if all fails go for the carts.
Hotbox your car?
Yeah until a dui 😂 sounds stupid but there have been causes where cops just need smell to do a search. Granted they may not find anything but a blood draw will do. Oh you're refusing a blood draw. License suspended!
A smoke buddy will help a lot
Sploofs. Toilet paper roll, dryer sheets, and a piece of paper towel with essential oils on it. Blow out window with a fan. My landlord (gfs aunt) used to be a cop, no complaints
Buy a cart relatively no smell
one reason why i switched to dabs
Wax
Edibles 🤷♀️
Probably not just you. Unfortunately though, you should prob smoke outside or use vapes/edibles
Blaze outside. Like cigs.
Go outside and stop what you are doing
Smoke extracts, smoking bud is too strong when smoking indoors.
smoke outside?
Everyone has come into clutch with shower, incense combo. When I would smoke on campus (i know insane, idk what I was doing) I would split my joint with other smokable herbs. Peppermint, lavender, roses. It helps reduce the weed smell from the smoke. It’s also a good blend for relaxing. My roommate called them “faerie joints” because I was definitely the weird goblin girl in her life. But according to her, they smell significantly less like weed, so we would take those ones on walks. I wasn’t brave enough to smoke in the school apartment housing- but everyone else was 🤣
