I need help rolling a joint.

Discussion in 'General' started by Betamax Bandit, Sep 15, 2009.

  1. I know that almost everyone on Grasscity knows how to roll but I don't at all. I asked my bro but he said that I have to learn for myself. So I watched how on Youtube and I didn't get it. So I ask you guys and gals, if there are any tips and tricks on how to roll so my joints don't look like this:

  2. There is some help in the Apprentice area I think. Also, you could search some google for tips and tricks.

    If all else fails, like it did for me, just get a pipe. That's how I solved my problem. I can't roll for shit. I love me my pipe<3

    Oh my good god, did you roll that, or is it just a random example of what you don't want?

    Get some real rolling paper, it's not safe to smoke that, at all... unless you like heavy metal poisoning.

    Not only will it not kill you, it will also you know, roll....

    The only way to learn is to DO IT. I couldn't count the videos I saw, people that tried to teach me, tips I read, and whatever else, but I didn't learn to roll until I started rolling a lot. If you smoke cigs, go buy some drum and roll your own for a few days, after a few pouches you'll have it down. It's like trying to teach someone to ride a bike, you can give them tips till you're blue in the face, but the best any advice can do is reduce the time it takes before they can ride without falling over. They've got to get on the bike and go, there's a skill aspect that no tip will make up for, and that only practice will change.
     
  4. lol

    Step 1: Don't troll. Only people who actually want to learn how to roll a joint can learn how.

    Other steps: Dont use printer paper, use weed not tobacco (that shits brown), use both hands. You could roll that joint with 2 fingers lol

    If your serious then I'm sorry. That just..doesn't look serious
     


  5. It's not printer paper, it's rolling paper (I know it's a waste). And I was practicing using tobacco so I don't waste weed. But I was being serious I'm just retarded at rolling. Thanks for the help... I'll probably just use a pipe for now on.
     
  6. some vital things are:
    Enough weed to stuff it (better to have extra then a skimpy ass j)
    poke..anything to compress weed after rolled
    roach/filter

    Make sure you practice over a hard surface like a table or desk
    take it nice and slow (but it does nt have to be perfect)
    once you work the weed into a nice cylinder like shape start actually rolling it how yo do this is up to you really start from the ends and work your way to the center or start from the roach in dominant hand and roll out from there
    use your poke..(chopsticks work well)
    pack it down tight but dont rip it when you grip it
    then seal

    I will post some pics when i get more bud and papers
    ..hate to see a j like that
     
  7. Never use printer paper because it contains harmful chemicals. Use zig zag papers or something similar. As for the rolling, I would buy a hand roller from your local smoke shop that sells them, they work great.
     
  8. Get some papers for $1, if you don't smoke cigarettes get one from someone else and practice rolling with the tobacco until you get it. That's what I did.
     
  9. That looks like computer paper... Try elements or raw papers, you can get them on GC's store.
    edit: I prefer twisting only, no paraphernalia after the fact of smoking unless you have ganj on ya.
     
  10. dont tuck it until you have it rolled my man.

    put the weed in it, pack it down with your fingers a lil bit...then just withyour thumbs and your pointer fingers just do a rolling motion...dont tuck it tho just slide it up and downlike.

    once you got it compressed into a rolledweedstick tuck the paper and roll it up making sure not to losen and make air pockets in your joint/blunt


    and if you're working with that lil amount of weed, dont be afraid to cut the paper....
     
  11. lol that looks like printer paper!!:D bro....
