So i saw this thread that somebody named clearvoyant started. The thread was entiteled: how do u roll a joint. Ass i was just gonna roll one anyway i decided to document it. Voila the result.
first picture:
Ok on picture number one u see evrything u need. U got the leaves, the roach, the tobacco and my grinder. I use a box, prepare the joint on the lid and i use the actual box to dump my weed in after grinding.
Second picture:
Aha the main ingredient off the joint, the buds
I have chosen NLX for this particular joint. I can tell u this stuff is extremely potent, as u can see from the picture there are thrichomes covered in fat crystals evrywhere.
Third picture:
This is the filter tip, the roach as u Americans call it. I always do 3 folds because it gives good stability and prevents anything from come through when u toke.
Fourth picture:
Now u grind the herb, dump it in the box. Lay your leaf with the sticky side faced towards the ground. This is important later on because i'm going to roll Hollandaise style as we call it here. Now distribute the tobacco evenly and in a triangular shape, this is very important because u'r gonna want u'r joint to be nice and conical.
Fifth picture:
Now u distribute the weed again in a nice cone ont the tobacco and then add another layer off tobacco. Do this nice and evenly and i can not stress the importance of a nice cone, this wil insure a smooth and evenly burning joint.
The actual rolling:
Now obviously i cant roll and take pictures at the same time so i filmed it.
This is basically what happens.
First off all u roll the joint in a nice conical shape. This should be easy if u distributed evrything good.
Now comes the big part u roll the stike side, wich should be upwards now, nice under the other paper.
Now u must look through the paper to see where u'r sticky side is. Lick the paper exactly where the sticky side is under it. Don't use to much saliva, use a little and rub it through, u will see the papers sticking toghether.
Bend the paper over by rubbbing over it and let it dry for a bit.
Sixth picture:
This is how it should look like if done properly.
Seventh picture:
The only thing u have left to do is tear off the excessive paper. This is not without danger, the important thing is to wait long enough until everything is dry. If u don't wait long enough u will tear the joint open and u will have to restart. Alternatively u can just burn it off but don't burn holes.

Isn't she a beauty, i'm smoking it right now and damn it's tasty
