Im not positive but it is my understanding that any kind of smoke (cigs weed wood crack whatever) paralyzes the cilia in your lungs. The purpose of these cilia is to clean out your lungs which they cant do while they are paralyzed. If you are a habitual smoker of anything you keep the cilia paralyzed long enough your lungs cant clean themselves as they should and you start hacking up the brown goo. Id say take a tolerance break let your lungs do what they need to do, youll feel like shit for a week but it will get better.

i smoked alot of herb, for real burned a qp a week like clockwork for the longest. but its been a couple days since i smoked as of now. and i dont smoke cigarettes or anything else

normal. usually a combo of ash, carbon(biochar) and tar or resins not taken up. all that stuff condenses in your lungs just like it does your pipe or whatever. should just be speckles in clear mucous, if not, possibly an infection.. if you smoke alot, there no way around this. vaping still does the same thing but less char obviously
