Spliff or Joint, Why or Why Not?

Would you rather smoke a spliff or joint? And why? I smoke spliffs all the time and thoroughly enjoy it. I find spliffs are better if the mixture is a full cigarette to about 2 grams of high grade kush (all I ever buy). Or for weaker strains I used to use about 2.5, weak strains 3. If spliffs aren't your thing, then why? What type of tobacco? What type of papers do you use for a spliff or joint?
 
I live in Canada, and marijuana is very cheap here. <NO PRICES- chainer> a gram someplaces. When I hear spliff I think tobacco and weed. There is another name for it but I can't think of it right now.

I have smoked both joints and spliffs. Now I smoke cigs and weed, but I do not like to mix them. I'm not a huge paper person anyway, I'm more into to glass/water filtration. but I would smoke just a joint so I can taste the lovely cannabis by it's self. I'm from buffalo NY and we call cannabis rolled with tobacco Spliffs.
 
I prefer regular joints, I'd rather keep the weed pure. As far as papers, I just use regular zig-zags.

I like pure joints, and then a cigarette on the side.

Do other young people now call cannabis with tobacco a "spliff"?
Yes, it's very common to call a weed/tobacco mixture a spliff, in spite of it's origins. Slang can be weird and change meaning over time.

You know, I hear some Europeans say that it helps the weed burn better or potentiates it, but I just don't see it. It just seems to dilute the goodness. I prefer a straight up joint. Like the feel, flavor and effects better.

In the US spliffs are only smoked when you're low on weed, if that. Even cigarette smokers would get pissed if you mixed weed with tobacco together. Only tobacco used is the paper for the blunt or in between smoking weed separately. Maybe some might mix it with shisha and smoke it out of a hookah.

I'd say the if you do make spliffs, a 3-1 mixture of weed to tobacco seems best. But I feel you only need to add extra carcinogens if you're low on weed or you want to smoke some strong hash/dank, don't have a pipe and can't/won't make or use one.
 
I tend to roll spliffs but I am a tobacco smoker and I live in a place where weed is almost always mixed with tobacco. I don't have anything against joints, I just personally roll with tobacco because I think it burns a bit better and because I feel it makes weed go a little bit farther.
 
Ughhh why spliff why.
I have a few european friends who only spliff and it grosses me out. They tend to get so upset when I pass them a regular joint or bowl (yes they spliff bowls too).

The worst is when im smoking with them and they pass me something thats been spliffed without telling me. I almost died after I took a giant bong rip that was spliffed. Oh god the horror.

Id rather just smoke a fattie and then smoke a cigarette, spliffing ruins the taste and is harsher on the lungs IMO.

I understand its a cultural thing though, and I wont argue with a european who spliffs. If an american passes me a spliff though im going to take a hit and blow out the smoke to spell out faggot.
 
I've smoked a few spliffs (the American definition of "spliff" anyway) and I have to say...I agree with Bombo 100%....no real point in the tobacco being in there and nicotine never really did much for me in the first place so...

joints > spliffs

But I'd rather just smoke a bowl, hit the bong or smoke a blunt before a joint.

How horrible:(! Lacing your weed with an addictive, toxic drug:X. Why not give you something wholesome, like PCP=D?
 
I prefer a spliff with less bud used, I rarely smoke Joints at all because most of the THC just goes into the air, what a waste? Vaporization or making cookies is my favorite c:

awww now you're only breaking my heart.

Tobacco makes sense in a joint, it burns better. Although, I agree about bowls. Anything involving water and pot should lack in tobacco.
 
You're forgetting that hash is everywhere in Europe, and weed, hmm, less everywhere...

Smoking hash in a joint requires tobacco. It's mandatory. And tobacco is ideal for this purpose. You can try other weeds instead of tobacco but it's very rare.
 
Roll in a nice paper such as raw, and use the tips as well (The little roach book) and you will see the difference when you smoke pure joints.
I personally can not Stand tobacco in joints, and i wont even toke on one if im offered it anymore lol.
 
Pure joints, tobacco is gnar

I have friends who only take tobacco/weed bong rips. they call them 'mokies'
I don't get it.
