Rolling a Blunt vs Joint: Tips for the Perfect Smoking Experience
Materials
- King size rolling papers (110mm x 44mm)
- Filter tip (cardstock or glass)
- Ground cannabis (0.5 to 1 gram)
- Grinder
- Packing tool (optional)
Step-by-Step
- Grind cannabis to a medium grind. Remove stems and seeds.
- Make a filter. Fold a strip of cardstock into an accordion shape. Roll it into a cylinder.
- Place the filter at one end of the paper.
- Fill the paper with cannabis. Distribute it evenly.
- Roll the paper over the cannabis with both thumbs.
- Tuck the near edge under the cannabis.
- Seal the paper with saliva or water.
- Pack the joint by tapping the filter end on a hard surface. Twist the open end closed.
Tips
- Use 0.5g for a thin joint. Use 1g for a thick joint.
- King size papers hold more than single wide papers.
- A rolling machine can help if hand rolling is new.
- Keep the filter tight. A loose filter lets cannabis through.
- Do not overfill. Overfilling causes a tight draw.
Common Mistakes
- Too much cannabis. The paper will not close.
- Loose roll. The joint burns fast.
- Torn paper. Use less pressure.
- Filter too loose. Resin and cannabis escape.
