    Hey guys, I'm kinda sorta a weed noobie, not exactly a seasoned smoker, I'm just starting to get into it more frequently then every few months, it's now every few weeks, if not once a weekend.

    Anyhow, me and a few of my friends want to mix it up a bit (I have a bowl, and another friend of ours has a metal stealth pipe) cause we always smoke out of bowls, we just figure it might be fun to smoke some joints and/or some blunts the next time or two. So I can look up guides on how to roll and all that, I just wanna know about the mix and what are the best papers to use?

    1. I've heard it helps it burn better/more evenly if you mix tobacco in with it (but I hate cigarettes) so should I always mix in tobacco, or does it really matter?

    2. Would legal bud (my stupid friends bought some blueberry kush legal bud at the boardwalk late this summer and still have some left) be a good substitute for tobacco in making a good joint mix?

    3. Whats the best brand of papers? I was thinkin of just getting some Zig Zags, but I'm not a joint smoker, I'm a bowl smoker. I'd prefer some papers easily found, rather then having to go to a headshop to buy them.

    So yeah just a few questions about joint mixes and papers, hope you guys can help.

    Ill try to answer your questions:

    1. a joint with tobacco in it is called a spliff. IMO, they do burn smoother and generally better with tobacco in it, I almost always roll spliffs. Helps you save bud as well, you don't need as much because you're mixing it with tobacco.

    2. that's actually a pretty good idea, legal buds might work, but honestly I'd just stick with tobacco, it's a lot cheaper.

    3. As for papers I like EZ Widers or Zig Zags. Ask friends if they have any spare papers on them. Try to avoid Tops fine gummed and Joker papers, they suck ass.

    1) I find that a spliff does burn easier and you can get away with smoking in alot of public places :p Also saves your weed as you are using tobacco as well as the bud and therefore takes less weed to roll.

    2) Tbh I'd stay completely away from legal bud, but mixing it could be worth a shot i guess :p

    3) Can't go wrong with Zig-zag, although I also am a fan of Smoking and Bob Marley's pure hemp papers.

    Wow thanks for the quick and helpful replies! My friend is tossing the legal bud my way for free, so I guess I'll share my experiment with you guys! Zig Zags sound like the way to go then, so thanks for that too.

    No problem dude, make sure you stick around! :) Tbh you said above you smoke from your bowl, and I'd say stick to this method than using joints. I like joint's as much as the next guy and appreciate their stealthy factor. However, if it's bang for buck you're after and you look to conserving weed, smoking weed via a bong/bowl/vaporizer would prove more beneficial in the long run.

    Also, be careful with mixing tobacco in with your weed. You could (and it's pretty unlikely, depending on how often/how much you mix) end up with being addicted to cigs, so be careful on this front.

    Other than that, keep on toking dude

    Zig-Zag and KB are very popular choices. Buy a pack of both and see which you like better.

    I gotta ask - other than economy, WHY would anyone wand tobacco mixed in with bud? You introduce all the crap the cig companies put in as filler material and completely ruin the taste/flavor of the buds.

    Sorry, but this seasoned/long time toker wants to know......

    BTW - I like Job French Light, Bambu, or RAW papers - used to like Marfil, but they are discontinued....

    Nah bowls will always be my primary method, I have a few friends with parents who know/smoke themselves, So I don't have to worry about stealth that much. I just wanna smoke some jays every once and awhile to mix it up. I figured I might as well ask.

    I'm still in highschool so weed is pretty easy to come by and not too overpriced. I even got some Fire Kush for pretty cheap, shit was crazy. So yeah I'm not worried too much about conserving. For me weed is a social thing, I like to toke with my friends and just chill out blazed outta our minds.

    Oh and I wouldn't worry too much about me getting addicted to cigs, If I mix and Tobacco in with my bud it wouldn't be much. I really really hate cigs, I smoked like 7 all in all, and I just don't see the appeal.
