My question is how good does smearing some oil on a weed/tobacco joint work?
1. How good is this method or how wasteful is it?
2. Does it make a difference if you smear the oil on the inside of the paper before rolling it as opposed to having it rolled and then smearing oil on the outside of the joint?
3. If you smear oil on a joint where should you smear it (top, center, etc)? Does the oil 'drip' down the joint as it is being smoked?
I know hot knives are the best method when using oil but my experience with oil, has been only from people once or twice on which both occasions I was drunk so didn't really know what they were doing. However I do remeber they were smearing small amounts on the lit tips of cigarettes and inhaling that, which did taste like oil and got me buzzed but it seemed like too much work and too much tobacco smoke.
I haven't smoked oil much except once or twice so my experince in this field is extremily limited. Hash is something that I also have been smoking for the past year or so as opposed to cannabis which i've been smoking for the past 10-11 years.
I am not a very handy person so my biggest concern with hot knives is all joking aside, seriously getting burned when getting high. I have even heard of people using the seweing (sp?) iron to smoke oil, which again is something I wouldn't like to try. Since I started smoking hash I have *always* smoked it either in a pipe or a joint (mostly a pipe) even if it wasn't pressed hash. Only one time I tried to do hot knives with hash (strong afghani that was supposed to be very good on knives) and it didn't seem to work very well (or maybe someone should come teach me how to do it).
Either way the point is I like to avoid knives at all costs when it comes to hash!
The simplest method which I have seen people doing and I like for the simplicity, is smearing a little oil on weed or tobacco joints (after it is rolled they will smear some oil on the outside of the joint).
