modisess Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Order from MNH arrived!Okay, before the the pictures commence.. I have a few questions.1. Does the lucids need acclimating? I haven't opened them up yet so I'm not sure how they smell.2. Can I acclimate with the air conditioner on?3. How should I pack the lucids? Like OG Tangiers? Or like the normal AF's and whatnot?4. The small phunnel I got is the same as my medium from thehookah, what now?Ok done.So here now the pictures..Shout out to GNR! Yeah, it WAS 3k.. not 4.5k.. calculated wrongly.. and well, you have a really good memory there.. And also big thanks to MNH! Customs didn't came calling!So there you go..End.

Doubon Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Nice order! Lucid needs no acclimation. If you move up to the regular tangiers, i'm not sure about acclimating with the A/C on, I assume you're supposed to acclimate it in the conditions you'll smoking in.

SmoKingSynergy Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Did anyone else notice that the exp. date on the Layalina Pear that they sent was 01/2008? Is that normal for someone to pay full price on an expired product? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Ninja Robot Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Nice one Mod! Lemme know how the Laya pear is! Looking for a good cheap pear shisha.And yeah my memory astounds Super glad for you that customs missed the package, especially with the size of the order. That must be a huge relief.

Capt. Morgan Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Not really that necessary but I prefer to let Lucid acclimate for a few hours. Probably doesn't make that much difference. Guess its a placebo effect for me. Doesn't mean I won't load up a bowl while I wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aethiolas Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 If you're looking for a good pear I smoked a sample of the Fusion Pear and it was AMAZING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modisess Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 Guys, i know this could be kind of a lol material but would acclimating the tangiers like this:work?I wanna leave em out all night but I just don't like the thought of leaving them all bare like that with the dust and all.

Spread it out over a piece of foil. Anything that gets in it (dust, etc.) will just burn off when you start smoking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 That is definitely a medium phunnel I have the exact same one. You don't need to acclimate lucid at all and you can pack it just like AF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If for some reason it tastes particularly funky, try acclimating it for an hour or so, but otherwise it's good to go right out of the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My juicy peach tasted better than my friend's when he just opened his bag and packed it. Mine had been open for a while and it did taste more juicy!

vin13 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 (edited) Despite what alot of people say, I've found that lucid gets alot better with acclimation. The Blue Gum Ball I had (Before it was smoked ) improved 10 fold as far as flavor was concerned so it might be worth a try if you're still having some trouble. Looks like a delicious order btw. Enjoy! Edited December 3, 2008 by vin13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy!Yeah, I've let the lucids acclimate for a few hours now. The raspberry still smell like like pure tobacco and burnt.. And it's been i think 9 - 11 hours since i've started acclimated it?
