Spinning weed. . . why?

No ones mentioned that it helps the weed burn easier, and I'd say that it would actually get *more* out of your weed due to the fact that more of the weed would actually burn properly and more thoroughly (SP?) thus getting more bang for your buck.

When smoking joints with pure tobacco it just doesnt seem to burn properly and becomes thick, not properly burnt ash rather than powdery nicely burnt ash.

I've been an experienced weed smoker for about 5 years now & always prefer smoking it with tobacco. I live in Australia, and I'd est. 90% of people add tobacco to it.. we simlpy call it "mix" (us Aussies are lazy when it comes to talking.......it's like "pass the bong", heh)

This also helps a lot when smoking bongs, as the weed tends to burn very quickly and to get that "Rip" effect you need tobacco / weed mixed very finely. I find it hard to pull through an entire cone that's purely green. It also makes it less harsh (or Tickly on your throat)

As a cigarette smoker this also reduces the number of cigarettes consumed (although I'm sure that I'm taking in more weed than necessary....care)

I find the best joints are made with proper rolley tobacco as it burns slower, making your weed burn properly all the way through. As a self-grower (grow for my own use only) it doesnt really bother me wasting a few crumbs.....hell, I give away stalks and shit that are full of bottom crap.

Anyway.. in conclusion, it's upto the user.....personally I find that tobacco makes the weed taste nicer, less harsh and burns more of the actual green product meaning it's more efficient.

I'm writing this coming off a lot of Ice & I'm at work, so sorry for my dribble. My fingers are at full speed!!

I hope this clears this up.
 
It is all up to what is the norm really. That will become what people are used to, so that is what they will do.

The only benefit that I see for 'spinning' is if you have a large group of people and not a lot of weed. If you mix tobacco in, the spliff will go around the circle more, thus everyone gets a more even amount.
The thought of taking bong hits with tobacco mixed makes me gag.
 
Yeah tobacoo in spliff, pure weed in bongs.

Tobacco is a no no in bongs it just tastes so nasty.

But a little in spliffs is all good.
 
lol no thats bullshit L:P

tobacco makes ur veins thinner, sorry i cant find the word for it, and weed dialates(is this the right word?:p i mean it makes em bigger) ur veins. Theoretically u should use as less tobacco as u can, cos it alters your high. However, most weed isnt dry as fuck so you need a small amount of tobacco to make that bitch burn, thats why u add tobacco ;) I always use as little as possible, i find that if u use a little or no tobacco at all u get a much more active high, when u use a lot of tobacco i find it makes me lazy and tired :P

thats just my 50 cents tho, here in amsterdam alot of tourists use more tobacco than weed ;o i dont like it, and most ppl here smoke the shit almost pure :p

everyone should really find out for him\herself which combo u like better, or maybe no combo at all :)
 
Around me mixing tobacco with weed never happens, straight weed. Although, I occasionally mix tobacco with commercial weed and roll up a joint I usually smoke one of these when I want the nicotine and thc all at once, most often I smoke this when I am rushed and dont have time to smoke each separately, doesn't happen often but it does happen. I only smoke these solo never would I blend the two if I was with friends.
 
For all you guys who smoke bongs pure with no Tobacco....do you get all the weed down the cone in one hit or does it take a few goes? I saw a yanky smoking weed once through a bong and he put a bud in the cone and smoked it over several hits......I just find it doesnt get you as stoned as you wanna get if you dont 'rip' the whole thing in one breath..here in melbourne we have contests to see who can rip the biggest bongs, or at least when I was younger (now my lungs are fuked..i dont even smoke bongs nemore)

all depends how you grow up & who you learn to smoke off...
 
^^^^^

I'm sorry "mate" but you are making me laugh. We have "who can take the biggest rip" contests over here in the states too. Thing is, I have never even heard of or been offered any tobacco mix except the occasional time in a big brass hooka. You just aren't making any sense. If you have a huge bowl (or cone, I think you call it) then of course it will take several rips to clear the bong. If you have a smaller piece, you can take it away in one hit... it just depends. How would want to hold tobacco in for that long and that deep anyway? OUCH. that sounds mighty painful.

by the way, I can't wait to visit australia for the surf and culture. You guys have a great country.
