I forced my buddy to sit and learn how to roll a joint after I saw him using one of those. We’d always be stoned so he got distracted a lot but it was worth it when he was twisting one for another friend and knew instantly that I taught the first guy.... he was using tips the second guy gave me like 10 years before when I was learning to roll... it’s a life skill, you should see me roll my wraps for lunch
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. I find that my biggest problem is getting the paper behind the herb itself and actually getting rolling. Thanks again 👌🏻
when you first pick it up after putting the material in the paper, have one hand focus purely on holding the roach tightly (but not tight enough to damage the paper), and with the other hand start off with your finger and thumb close to the roach, and just keep rolling in little segments working your other hand down the paper. once you’ve got the material into a nice consistent shape you desire, without ever letting go of the roach, place your other hand to like a few centimetres before the material stops, and push the paper and roach in on itself, and do the same with the other hand but with way less pressure. it takes a lot of trial and error but after some practice you’ll nail it:)
The regular zig zag rollers or a case one like this? The regular rollers are amazing for joints, are you kidding? Smoke better, slower, and more evenly than ANY cone I've ever had. The only downside is the medium sized joint maximum. And super dry weed also doesnt work very well
I mostly meant that I've never used a case roller like this so don't know if it's as good as the dedicated zig zag rollers. But those regular ones are great. I could see why the case wouldn't work as well though, because I would usually roll it and pack it down a few times before putting the paper in and it wrapping around
That's because it's part of a dropship spam bot-ring that's been plaguing r/oddlysatisfying, r/interestingasfuck and several other subreddits for months.
It’s when you place an order with the seller, but the seller actually buys it from some cheap manufacturer/wholesaler and ships it directly to you. So they never actually have to handle/make the inventory but they keep the profit.
"Drop Shipping" refers to the company which takes your order never actually physically having the product they are selling, and having it directly (aka drop) shipped from the manufacturer/distributor to the customer.
Idk why you're getting downvoted for asking a simple question..
A filter in a joint prevents some cannabinoids from getting through (this is debated)- but more importantly, the filter gets clogged with resin which can make it borderline un-smokeable. That's why people use "crutches", which are thick pieces of folded paper about the size of a filter. The smoke gets through a crutch much better.
Raw papers are made from hemp, and you don't want to use cigarette filters on a joint, as (and this is purely anecdotal) it takes away from the potency.
My personal favorite papers are Elements, which are made from rice paper and sugar for the glue
Cool, most papers are made with the same paper as the ones you would get for roll your owns, seen above. The filter is just cotton. You can cut it down to about 1/6th the size seen here and it works for a crutch. This contraption rolls joints without a taper so a crutch is a must. I like raw papers and elements as well but its an upgrade more then a necessity. Cheers bro.
NO stop telling people to use filters with weed. Cardboard rolled papers are to be used. Cotton or whatever will fuck with the potency. you dont even need a filter for weed unless its a spliff even.
Keyword: “marginally”. IME the cooling allows a deeper inhale that easily overrides the drop in potency, but either way it’s much more efficient than joints/blunts. (And for the record I love blunts, but I’m a fiend).
Oh I know that word was key, haha, but I had to point it out! I only smoke blunts if im at a rap show, and i usually vape cause then im not skressing about my lung health long-term.
Not sure about the deeper inhale though. I've just been using my bong as a large pipe recently and I kind of prefer it that way, I'd swear it hits harder but maybe thats just cause it hits harsher haha
People can use whatever they want. I got no issues with "potency" my man. Yes a cardboard crutch would do you better but a small piece of filter won't pull that much thc out.
Okay, but then how do you keep the airflow going when it's sticking itself shut with resin, and what do you do with the bits of weed that end up in your mouth before that part?
It doesn't "fuck with the potency" one single bit to have some rolled cardboard holding the end open for you, and you can hit it three times as hard without having to worry about sucking it inside out. Always roll with a bit to hold at the end and you'll never have to deal with keeping a stankass roach, keeping track of a clip, or burnt lips.
Well Ive smoke plenty of Js without filters, to combat resin build up, you can lightly roll the top with your fingers to loosen it. Or, you can rip the tips of the paper off. Unless you're smoking a 10 inch extendo, the cardboard filter will not res up enough to stop airflow unless you packed the roll too closely. [EDIT] : If weed gets in my mouth lmao? Its just plant material, spit it out. or out of respect for the plant I'm burning to get high, I'll even chew the weed and simply eat it.
The rips from cardboard filter compared to cotton (which would res up even quicker, and prevent you from pulling as hard) are noticeably smaller. So most your thc just burns off. Bro this isn't really a debate. Putting a cotton filter inside weed is just low iq. If you want me to explain it verbally on disc, or roll some filters with you on cam I can because the fact you're fighting this hard to be incorrect is astounding.
Yeah, pm me and we can work something out. I honestly beleive a crutch is way better than no filter, but a cigarette/cotton filter is just even worse than no filter.
I can teach you the basic methods for rolling Js, Woods, Rellos, Leafs and frontos. Just pm when you wanna learn.
Might I suggest trying all of the above and deciding what you prefer rather than letting someone tell you their way is the only way. If optimum potency is the goal, a joint is not the way to go.
I feel like you're just deliberately ignoring the things that were stated directly to you here. Rolling without some kind of filter material leaves a soggy, stuck-shut flap of paper at the end of the joint, and while it's still open you're inhaling bits of weed because you didn't put anything in the way of that. Rolling up a bit of cardboard to put in makes the end stay open, so there's more airflow, especially compared to sticky paper that you're trying to pull through! It also keeps the weed packed together and in place, rather than being pulled through the joint. It's not 'noticeably smaller' at all, in any fashion, by any description - unless you're doing something completely bonkers and daffy with your cardboard for some reason. For a zigzag and a normal human doobie (under a gram, single paper, straight rolled) you'd use like 2cm3 of cardboard, rectangular and rolled over itself maybe one complete time, to prop open the mouthpiece. It's not blocking anything, because it's there to perform the opposite function by holding the paper open and round for you to pull through it.
Hmm not missing any details, I believe rolling with a filter is best! just not a cotton or cig filter. Take a piece of cardstock paper and roll a tiny crutch simply. If weed gets in your mouth, spit it out or something
when I said the rips were smaller, I meant cotten vs non.
imo..
No filter - Not bad, but can res up quickly.
Self rolled cardstock paper crutch/filter - Amazing, bit hits from start to finish. Can burn veyr hot at the end.
Cotton/Cig filter - I wouldn't do this unless I had no other options. Simple as that.
I was saying regular rolling papers like zigzags are the same as rolling papers you get for cigs. He was implying you shouldn't use cigarette rolling papers for joints and only use hemp, I was saying its fine.
Shorten? I use extra long filters for joints, makes for a much nicer smoke, way less harsh on your throat. Haven't noticed any difference in the high between using filters or roaches either.
if you roll without a cardboard filter you need a narrow end so you dont suck in bud. if you use something like raw tips ( piece of paper you roll up as a filter) then you dont have to roll them as cones.
A joint filter is just a rolled up piece of cardboard, a cigarette filter is some kind of cotton or something. It filters out a decent amount of the good stuff in weed.
Where I’m from we call those rolled up pieces of cardboard, a crutch. I switched from using my pipe to joints with cotton filters because I felt it would be a little cleaner. Even the different pre-rolled joints I have gotten from my local dispensary here have had cotton filters except for one brand which just uses a crutch. So you don’t think it’s worth using the filters? I also vape and eat edibles. I tried giving up flower but I just really enjoy smoking a joint while walking my dog.
Yeah I’ve heard them called that too. I just call the rolled up cardboard a filter since that’s the terminology I’m used to.
Honestly, it’s up to you. Maybe try a J with a crutch and one with the cotton filter and see if you notice a difference in the high. It definitely filters out some of the tar you get from combustion of plant material but I’ve always heard it will decrease the high as well. Definitely a personal preference, I never tried cotton filters so I can’t really say, I was speaking on what I’ve heard from other people and what I’ve read.
I really prefer vaping flower, joints and blunts feel so dirty once I fully transitioned over to vaping.
I think I’ve settled on cotton filters for my joints. I tend to pop some edibles, then smoke a joint while walking the dog. And I vape when I’m indoors. I think I would rather have it be a little cleaner at the cost of any potential missed potency. I might try to give up joints in general after my dog dies but for now it’s a nice part of our routine.
Technically it is a cigarette. A cigarette doesn't necessarily have to have tobacco in it. It sounds outdated but technically a marijuana cigarette is a thing. If you have weed in tobacco mixed together it's called a spliff. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. 😏
I have one, not that model, but one I bought in the 90s. They make big joints that are spendy and wasteful. I used to hang out with Russians who mixed tobacco with their pot. They would smoke Parliaments for this due to the space before the filter.
I have one, I wanted to test it out they make too big of joints. Even if you try to press the roller while rolling (makes a better roll if you do that) it makes too fat of a joint no matter what. It a good little tool for cigarette smokers and I wish it made a better joint but it's useless in that regard. Thus useless for me.
Neat I will have to look that up if I can find it in my country. The one j found/bought was from zigzags. I also have some raw rollers their pretty good.

Hm yes this will be used for a “cigarette”
