Joint rolling tips..

[verbal]

I usually use a rolling machine to roll joints. Anybody got any tips on hand rolling joints? I need all the help I can get..

I like cone joints the best, but practice is all I could tell you. Joints arent really hard at all to roll.

Just break up all of your weed as fine as you can get it. Fold the rolling paper so you have a pocket you can drop the weed in. Drop the weed all down the length inside the rolling paper, packing more in the middle than on the sides. Slowly push the hump of weed in the middle down so that you can begin turning the bottom side of the paper over to the other (rolling it). Push the back side of the paper over all of the weed inside and leave a small piece up on the other side so that you can lick it. After it's wet, fold the two ends together....sticky side on top, so it will stick. Roll the ends of the paper first then fold the middle piece over after the ends are stuck.
Or something like that...

I do it european style : with a rolled up piece of thin cardboard (the ideal is the cardboard that hard cigarette packs are made off) about 3/4 inch wide as "filter".
It easier to roll and you don't need to worry about the roach getting soaked in spit.

if U want to learn to roll good, practice on tobacco....once U learn to roll ciggertees the weed will be a breeze.
Ive rolled a lot of blunts in my time, and i would have to say the biggist joint i have ever rolled was 4 Rizzla papers...2 wide, 2 thick.....there was about 5 grams in it...we got fukd

i have always found it easier to roll cones using a dollar bill. fold the bill about 1/3 of the way down, and put all yer weed in the fold. if your right handed put less weed on the right side, this will be the mouthpiece (left handers, you get the idea...) i like to leave a little chunk of weed where the mouthpiece will be so it blocks any finer bits from getting sucked in. a friend of mine used a little stem for the same purpose. focus on getting the mouthpiece right, try to make a hole about 2mm across. do this by folding the bill over and to the right at about a 30-40 degree angle. on the lighting end, don't worry too much as long as your cone is not so fat that the paper doesn't meet when it folds around. lick the corner of the paper near the mouthpiece and stick on, the corner should be about 1-2cm away from the mouthpiece, sense you're actually rolling the paper a little crooked. ideally the other corner of the same end of the paper composes most of the mouthpiece. this is hard to explain, but what i'm trying to say is that one whole short end of the paper will not be at the mouthpiece, because it's a cone, that end will wrap around the joint and the glue part of it will be about 1.5cm form the mouthpiece. on the other end the two corners should overlap a little so the joint isn't too wide and you end up with a little "V" gap that makes the joint too short. anyway, take the joint out of the bill and lick the rest of the glue, from the outside, i find trying to lick it all at once before you fold it over makes it harder. let it dry, and pack in any weed that fell out of the other end, twist it off, and go for it!
(damn that was long and hard to explain, sorry but for me joint rolling is an art form, i learned from the master...)
