First time lighting a joint

Might have been rolled too loosely paper coulda done something too

 

really har to say with the information given. Did it feel as firm as other joints you smoked? I've not heard of Maiz papers but I'm sure they'd be just as good as any cigarette papers for the task

 

Yeah man if u take a long drag they can light on fire, u just blow flame out and puff on ur jay like a ciggi except hold smoke in more..

Roll joint tighter (use a flat surface such as a desk)
light up and slowly draw in on Joint untill its lite like a cigi
inhale not tooo long but take nice drags and hold in for 5 secs or so then exhale
if it catches alight, blow flame out and keep smoking
enjoy

 

I like to pack mine nice and firm like a cig. I always make sure they have the right pull to them(can't really describe it). and then making sure to light the entire end evenly so it's all glowing. I've not seen one of mine light fire like that so
my apologies if my comments are not helpful to you

 

next time try just holding it in your hand and lighting it with a light and then take a hit cause my friends do the same shit and burn halfs of joints lol

 

Yeah roll it tighter and pack it in there and you should be fine.

 

Like everyone else said if it burned really really fast and after about a second half the joint was gone, then it was rolled too loose just keep practicing you will get better. I remember when that happened to me, once you roll a nice tight joint you will love who it burns and smokes. Imo a good joint about 1 gram or so will burn for 5-10 minutes, that's how mine are anyway. And if you still can't roll after practicing find something like a normal black mechanical pencil the cheap ones, and take off the little clip thing for your shirt and roll your paper around that pencil really tight and seal it up. I forgot to mention take off the end piece that holds the eraser, then after you roll the empty joint just sprinkle in your ground up weed and pack it into the joint nice and tight with the end opposite the writing side of the pencil, if you did it right it will be tight around the pencil when you are packing it, and it will come out looking like a cigarette. I've rolled like this many times because it always ends up being 1 gram even and they are perfectly rolled. I only do this when I'm at my crib though, it's only convenient at home, but imo it's worth it.

 

seems like the joint wasnt rolled to well. also, don't light it directly or it will catch on fire, keep it at the edge of the j not right on it.

check that out. :]
you probably didnt pack it tight enough, or rolled it too loose (if that makes sense)

 

the buds need to be packed evenly and not to tight. but not to loose. after I roll a joint/blunt. I tap it on the table or flat area once or twice to make sure its good and packed. plus the weed needs to be broken up nice a fine. Get a grinder they help a lot for joints.

 

It sounds like a loose joint. Maybe roll another one and post some pictures to give us a better idea of what it looks like.

 

a real easy way to get it packed is to take a q-tip or somethin and pack the non-mouth end, insta-good joint

 

You could try lighting the j before you inhale. Joint rolling and smoking are both an art, it all comes with time.
