uselessdreamer1 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Well i was cleaning my hookah stem after smoking, which i have done regularly, and after i used my brush to scrape the inside, i ran water thorugh it and the water was green! I was smoking alfakher melon incase that has anything to do with it. It hasnt done this before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMOKE~N~BUBBLZ Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 If it is copper pipping in your hookah its just some oxidation, nothing to worry about, but you should be cleaning your Hookah before or after every use.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Its some of the moisture from the ma'assell dripping down your shaft...(man that sounds wrong) plus condensation etc of the smoke itself. You are SMOKING. There is all sorts of crap going into your lungs. Particulate matter from the burning tobacco in the form of smoke, carbon from the cooking/burnin sugars in the molasses or honey, plus whatever is used for the flavour. THIS IS NOT A HEALTHY PASTTIME! That said many of us chose to do it anyway. The choice is yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 What kind of hookah do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypress Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 What you might want to check is that the so called stainless hookah you have is pure stainless. I bought one that was supposed to be stainless from hookah shisha. Needless to say it did not say stainless steel. Also. check the down pipe to as well to make sure its not copper. Pure stainless steel should not turn green. Even the drippings of the ma'assel should not turn it green. If anything it might be a red or a brownish color.

cypress Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 The hookah was chromed over brass. It was sort of stainles on the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 mine often has a greenish gunk wash out. Sometimes red if the ma'asell was heavily dyed. As long as you don't eat the stuff I wouldn't worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wyteboy Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 agreed with Mush on this one.... except for how bad he thinks it is for you....I'm not saying it's good for you. but I don't think it's THAT bad. Now mush will come on say I'm naive and dumb. We have a wonderful relationship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
