It is not easy to roll a perfect joint, but it would take time, patience, and effort to be able to master the feat. Even someone who has smoked for a long time can improve this skill, which is why it can be useful to learn about it. A well-rolled joint has an even burn, an easy-to-draw column of smoke, and your herb tastes exactly as you want it to. Though there are many smoking alternatives such as vaporizers, water pipes, and the like, nothing can beat the feeling of rolling and then smoking a joint.
Gather Your Materials
One important thing that should be done before actually beginning with the work is to check all the needed materials. YouÕll need:
- Rolling papers
- Herb
- A filter (optional)
- A flat surface
- A grinder
Grind Your Herb
The first step towards rolling a perfect joint is preparing the plant material or marijuana by grinding it. A consistent and fine grind also helps balance the heat while providing a smooth and enjoyable smoking experience. With a grinder, make the herb reach a fluffy consistency. However, it should not be ground to fine particles to enhance the fast burning of the joint or wood.
Prepare the Filter
It is advisable to use a filter, which is also commonly called a crutch. It retains the shape of the joint and prevents small pieces of herb from flying into your mouth. To make a filter, get a small piece of cardboard or, if you can, use a filter tip to roll it into a cylinder. Put this at the end of the strip when rolling the paper.
Fill the Rolling Paper
Take your rolling papers and place it in a manner where the adhesive part is facing upwards and in your direction. Clip one end of the filter and uniformly spread the ground herb on paper from one end to the other. Do not over-stuff it because this will complicate the process of rolling it and may lead to an uneven burning experience.
Shape and Roll
With your fingers, pat and mold the herb into a cylindrical shape. Begin twisting the paper clockwise and counterclockwise to encase the herb and create the joint. When the herb is well packed, one is supposed to start folding the paper on the side that is non-adhesive over the herb and then rolling it up. This is done by simply tasting the adhesive strip and then placing it on the joint to seal it.
Pack and Finish
Once rolled, apply slight pressure with your fingers or a pen or similar object from the jointÕs mouth end. This step helps to achieve uniform heating and at the same time a tight hold of the joint is not possible. Twist the open end and your joint is ready once the herb has been packed well into the roll.
Conclusion
There are little tips and tricks to rolling the perfect joint and following these steps will help you get close to perfecting the art of rolling perfect joints. Remember, the key is in the details: Too much heat, irregular grinding, uneven distribution of the herb, and rolling the paper too tight can lead to an inconsistent burn.
