What do you do with yer roaches?

[4twentE]

From hemostats to glass pieces. Just wondering how your roaches get smoked. I usually save them for those rainy days, tear the paper off and pack a bowl.

[xcrispi]

They end up in the next joint , esp. when im low . lol
Run low , hahahahaha , Yeah Sure !!!!!

i know a guy who saved up a glass full of roaches, then rolled a massive blunt with Resinated weed. Its very bueno.

I would do that same but i dont smoke many joints..

[NteeM]

usually always throw them out. if they're big (enough to stone you) I keep them. if not, I enjoy them while I can until they're impossible to smoke and throw them out.

[Jinxxx]

Dang! I normally just sling mine along with the back end of the J =|

Might have to try saving em from now on.

<nOOb>
How exactly are the roachs reused? Just pop it straight in the next J / Blunt? Orrrr?
</nOOb>

Advice appreciated =]

Peace.

Jinxxx.

[slipknotpsycho]

err... i don't roll roach blunts but i do roll roach joints... if i'm lazy i'll just pack it (after un wrapping it) in a bowl...

anyone who just throw your roaches away... c'mon man <.> save 'em.. donate to the needy... eventually you'll find someone who'll use 'em.

[JMRinFLA]

Usually with a roach clip I can smoke 'em down to where there's nothing worth saving. Sometimes if I accumulate a few I'll toss the paper and pack a bowl.

[stinkyattic]

I leave them in the ashtray.
And some of my po' ass friends have a charming habit of picking through my ashtray and then asking for a baggie for their loot...

In England a roach is a bit of card that goes in the end. Keeps it open, you get big hits, it cools the smoke slightly and theres nothing left so you dont have to carry around smelly old weed and have evidence on you even after you've smoked.

Some of us use tips here too. A piece of a matchbook or something.
I rarely have roaches, because I use a glass pipe and a vaporizer.
Paper smoke irritates my throat too much.:(

if thats not what were on about which i thought we were then what ere we on about??

thats how i do it. i got a cig pack in my room, filled half way up with roaches. i got $60 for the next 2 weeks, so i dont think they'll be lasting me very long.

[WEsmokeED]

I give mine to this kid who is like 15 but loves to smoke and drink. We call him roach too

[rastaman79]

nah,its not about smokin roaches.when weed is warmed it releases the thc, it doesn`t need to be burnt,thats why vapourisers work.so i think that shitty, skanky,tarred up bit at the end has been pretty wrung out of goodness, just a thought.

[Jesta]

On the rare occasion that I smoke joints I always usually just save the roach and pack it in a bowl or give it to a friend.

[Sir Bliss]

I should start saving roaches. Still, I tend to just throw the roach in its entirety straight in a bowl and finish that shit off. Nothing goes to waste. Be grateful to your bud.

[Frivolous248]

Sorry, but do you people save the peices of card that is used as a filter type thing and smoke them?

Or are all you americans talking about when you dont use a card tip and you have left over weed in the joint?

Why would anyone smoke a piece of cardboard?

It varies from time to time. I don't smoke a lot of joints so I usually only have 1-3 on occasion which isn't enough to roll a full joint so they usually get burnt in a bowl. Sometimes when I'm out though, like the other night, we had 2 fat roaches 'n I just put them in the next joint we rolled.

[LRhymes111]

My roaches either get thrown into the bowl to get smoked just as they are..paper and all. The paper has good resin soaked into it. No waste. Or if im feelin good i save it in a baggie that has my other ones for them days where my weed gets Low. Them roaches i save sometimes get broken up and stuck into another L. BLunts only. Wtf are they talkin about cardboard.. Mine is just blunt and weed.

[TommyJ]

People smoke without roaches? But...

O.o

[scream]

i always keep mine, in my last apartment we kept them in a glass jar on the dining room table. When I got raided the brought in a dog and warrant and found most of the weed in the house. The cop sat at the table and moved the roach jar out of his way so he could fill out paperwork. When i got out of jail we rolled the roaches into a fatty and made fun of the cop for missing them.

[2600HERTZ]

Depends on where I am. I dont like to have roaches on me usually, but if im at home ill grab the ol bong and toss her in. Not much for burnt finger tips or lips.

hahahahhahaah thats the funniest thing ive ever heard. :jointsmile: lucky:thumbsup:

i think theres a bit of confusion between a roach thats like cardboard (or a filter, at least thats what i call it) and like a roach thats just weed.

[slipknotpsycho]

ok... anyone talking about smoking roachers are refering to not having a cardboard tip in the end...

and LOL at that weed being useless... it tastes like ass, but it's the strongest bit of the whole joint....

[BwiseLegalize]

Save them for my glass bowl

:pimp:

[Mulletator]

I have a ton of roaches. It is very tedious (and gross) to peel each one. Does anyone have a fast method for removing the paper from large quantities of roaches?

I think I could cut them all up in a food processor then use a screen.

[4.2O]

gotta save em.
when i acquire a ncie amount i open 4-5 and sprinkle them in my next couple fresh blunts.

people who throw away the perfectly good roach drive me crazy.

[donsolo]

I load em into my bong's bowl and face em out like the bowl is a mouth. then I just burn it...

I've been adding filters to my joints so I don't need so much.

It's not hard.. Just hold the roach by the edge of the mouth end of it. Grab a corner of the filter, and tear the paper along the length of the roach. Split apart the paper, and bam. Instant bowl pack.

[MeJCaLxZ]

Crispi :jointsmile:
woah crispi i havent seen you around on here in forever.. how ya doin..


i never save my roaches, remove paper put in bowl/bong right after joint/blunt

[silkyblue]

what roaches?


our soninlaw throws them away :stoned:

hubby sacavenges em lol

[420_24/7]

I use to roll with a cardboard roach but I stopped a while back because It takes longer and I can roll a tighter joint without them.

Sometimes I save em and pack bowls or roll a joint, and sometimes I just stick em right in the bowl.

[josemartinez915]

when it comes down to roaches, i pack the weed inside in a piece, and if no pieces are available, roll it in the next joint, and if its the last joint, i save it for next smoke sesh :jointsmile:

[jimmy8778]

i found the easiest way to remove the inner weed of a blunt or joint is to take a tooth pick, any kind really, i use the one on my swiss army knife, and just poke through the mouth opening, it will usually push it out in a single chunk that way, but depending on how tight you pack it and how resin sticky it got it may come out in little chunks. Andi if you are a real stickler you could empty it first like before, but then rip the paper open, and then scrape the resin out some and try to get some powdery residue out, but thats it besides just smoking the paper as well.

[Pie_man]

Pack a bowl.

[suhl]

all of the above. sometimes i light it toss the whole roach into the pipe, sometimes i break it down throw out the wrap and smoke whatever weed is leftover int the pipe, sometimes i just get some needle nose pliers and suck the thing down other times i flick it out the window. man this place is a cemetary for brain stimulation

[STIMPY21]

Usually give them away or smokem and let it fly when too short. Is ther a tutorial on how u roll a j with a "roach" in it? I really don't like having my fingers burnt, and would like to give a try. From the way it is described you would roll a piece of heavier weight paper into a short tube and then roll it in when you twist the paper. Is that it?

STIMPY21

yeah, i mean, that is pretty much the principal behind it, most people use the cardboard like paper that papers come in, or that stuff like index/busines cards are made from. I cant roll to save my life so i use a roller, and i just put a piece of rolled paper on the end and use the roller and it just wraps around the roach, it works pretty well, just make sure there is good air flow through the roach otherwise your just letting it smoke off the tip and are not going to be able to inhale.

[andybuttcheaks]

Hahaha. I love the burnt feeling on my lips. I always lick them
'cause it tastes like good ol' mary jane.

[Robob420]

i like the fact that all of the brits on here are like

wtf?

cz in the uk the roach is the actual piece of cardboard in the end of the j or blunt and its a european thing to not roll many blunts so its usually just baccy at the end of the joint

pretty gross to smoke baccy flavoured weed in a bong

[xxMJAHxx]

Here in Québec as well mate, ive NEVER EVER seen anyone smoke without one here. People here call smoking without a cardboard roach smoke Bob Marley style lol.

Btw long time no see LIP, i wasnt around seeing how bad has gotten the site, now im just really high and felt like going on old cann.com lol :stoned:, how have ya been?

By the way Robob, european thing? hmm not sure of that :p, although idk about the rest of canada.. which is usually the opposite of us haha xD

[MadSativa]

I use a filter, some call it a crutch or a tip, since its not filtr like a cigaret filter. But their are no roaches.

[Giro2007]

Normally just rip the thing open and jam it in the bong, sometimes they go in a j tho. For the people who havnt used roach tips before dont roll the joint with the roach in it, roll first then make your roach depending on size of mouth end, insert the roach smoke and smile!

[Mississippi Steve]

From hemostats to glass pieces. Just wondering how your roaches get smoked. I usually save them for those rainy days, tear the paper off and pack a bowl.

None of the above... I don't do joints so I don't have roaches. Waterpipes are good that way:thumbsup:

[texas grass]

i know its a waist but i usually throw them out. and for some reason i dont finish a bowl and come back to it later, ill usually ash it out(old/half burned buds taste like crap no matter what flavor it is)

[xcrispi]

Thanx to W/H -N- Flameon I now use em to make capsules . :stoned:
Crispi :jointsmile:

[Apocalypse14]

I usually pack the whole thing into a bowl, I just like the way it tastes. It tastes like the blunt you didn't taste, and its a bit on the spicy side :) When I smoke a Joint though, thats when I tear it open to pack one. But blunts on the otherhand, they have more flavor.

[DamnViolentStoners]

I never really have a shortage of pot so I biff my roaches, even if I just don't feel like anymore of the joint.

[StickyfingahZ]

When I was in high school,when me and my buddy would smoked a joint,we would put it in the dirt and say stuff like "Give it back to tha land" as we did it.
I also remember a period when I used to burn wid my cousin and we would smoke until there was a good size roach,like big enough to get you high by yourself, and we would put it in the match box with the crutch(back when I had this thing for lighting my weed with wooden matches)
and we would leave it on the bus stop bench or wherever we were burning and Tag up the box with our sign and leave a message for the person who found it.You know,maybe some lonely guy would find it and burn it.We actually met some chicks that were lookin for the guys who been leaving the weed around.We was burning and these chicks just walked up and we smoked them out and they started talking about how they found a matchbook with a half joint in it and they smoked it and me and my cousin just looked at eachother and smiled.We never told them it was us,but we did end up partying with them a few times.
But nowdays I just save them and add them to my next joint,unless I run out and I pack a bowl.

I usually just cut my fat roaches in half with a razor blade or chef knife(Hence StonedChef). Much easier to peel the paper off that way.

[purplehaze11]

Sometimes with a blunt roach since those can get nasty and wet at the end of a big blunt I burn 2 holes in a water bottle, one for the carb and stick the roach in the other one, makes a sweet pipe

[ADM]

I save em, and roll a generation aka, roach blunt.

[NinjaToke]

i thought hte spliff was so theres no roach haha i roll a spliff and smoke it till i hit paper!

[Gynecologist]

If it's good weed, ill take a big hit, and swallow it. If it's bad weed, i'll take a big hit, and put it in the ashtray.

[gethighgirrl]

ok..this may be a little long, but this is just what iknow this guy does.

well first off about twice a month i'll give some bud to this really amazing 76yr old man and his wife b/c they can't really get out of the house and they like the company.

well whenever i'll smoke with them they tell me really cool stories about back in the day and their diff. ideas on life and what not.

well, mark [his name] saves 7 [idk why 7] good-sized joints and he rolls them into another joint. then he saves those joint roaches until he gets 7 and he rolls another joint...like a super joint??? haha i guess you could say. and he swears that he gets higher when he doesnt. idk how he would but he says he does haha

it may seem a really pointless to some ppl, but i like the idea of it. :jointsmile:

[SurferBoy37]

Haha i save mine up for after my J's, resonated herb kicks like a mule, might be a bit rough but DAMN it messes you up. it's the Three R's of Smoking: Re-up, Re-pack, Re-Smoke. :rastasmoke:

[Potcake]

My boyfriend and I usually take off the paper then use it to top off a bowl. I personally like to call the first hit dirty greens. :stoned:

[RobPA]

I collect mine in large pill bottles (like the kinda the super big Ibuprofen come in). I have about 4 filled to the brim. They are also marked "Good" and "Regs". I have one friend who throws his out, I tell him whenever I see him hes nuts, lol. Wow i just noticed how many people out there throw there roaches out! Great poll!

[AdamSkoda]

Throwing roaches away is a sin.

I usually try to save them to roll up a roach blunt, but if I only have 2 or 3, I just pack up my bowl. Usually depends on if it was just me or a couple of friends smoking.

Hell, I used to save them and I'd mix up between regular and resinated. Just fill up your rillo or wrap, brak open a few roach and lightly sprinkle. Bake for a few minutes.

[510Tony]

save em up and stick em up in a bong.

[dewthedew]

when i'm with friends we'll roll a fatty and once it's too small to hold put it in a bong:stoned:

[keeko]

Throwing roaches away is a sin.

guess that makes me a sinner:thumbsup:

[cygnustaxt]

i save them up until i have enough for a second generation blunt or whenever im in a pinch before i buy my next sack i smoke'em in the bowl one by one.

[ProfessorChaos]

if you were smart you would put a filter in your joints so u could smoke all of the weed without burning your hands/lips/etc.

[Burnt Toast]

I use a toke stone for my roaches.
My toke stone is nothing more than an old brass oval medallion removed from the beaded "pull-chain" of my ceiling fan.:D For those who are curious, the roach is placed in the larger of the two holes of the medallion. The smaller hole is where you hit.

If Im in travel, and my toke stone doesnt somehow make the trip with me, I'll just eat the roach. :rasta:

[wealllold]

two words: Gas Mask :D

It works very well to use in in a gas mask

[zihowie]

Someone else hit on this, but i just poke a hole in a can with a knife and plug the hole with the roach. Quite effective i must say and you dont have to hit the metal or aluminum foil

[bresy33]

My friend actually swallows the end of the roach when he is done smoking it. Its a pretty cool party trick but my friend only does it when smoking blunts not joints. He calls it the "wu tang" or "wu tangin the blunt." Basically when the roach gets towards the end he'll take a couple of puffs and then on the third do a really big inhale swallowing the roach. You have to be careful though as you can burn the back of your throat if not done quickly and properly. The main thing though is having confidence that you can do it and you'll find its easier than you think. Haha me and my friends always laugh when he does it cause we know he has like 25 blunt roaches sitting in his lungs.

[rastaman79]

I read somewhere the you only get re-usable resin off quality hash,and that the sticky smelly brown shit off weed is actually mostly tar and other nasty shit-so why would any one want to collect it?

[KomfortablyKnumb]

your friends a G. its called wu tanging. to put in a sentence: what should we do with the roach? wu tang it!!! after the rap group wu tang. doing that is quite popular where im from. ive done it, i dont suggest it cus its gross, but a lot of people do it.

[420purplehaze420]

In the event I feel like smoking a joint, I always put a filter in it, just a rolled up peice of cardboard, keeps the joint hitting perfect from start to finish and when the cherry gets a few millimeters from the cardboard I just toss it, no point in carrying around a stinky roach.

[abraham]

I save mine for when I'm out. Which is hardly never. I have about 3 oz of roaches. Some years old. It's not the great to smoke in my opinion but it works in a bind.

[Lido]

I kill them with Blackflag. (little bastards)

[l0vebug]

seems like most people keep them in jars which is what i do. Then i just have it sit there until i have enough keif and i just pack a big bowl on my steamroller and sprinkle all the keif in with it

good times but head aches cuz it hits me too hard


:jointsmile:

[StickyfingahZ]

Well, we used to bury them,back in high school,"give back to the land" but lately I just save them and when I start getting low I just unwrap them and pack it in a bowl.

[welshstoner]

What do u guys mean when u say roach? Roach as in cardboard fillter?

[p0th3d]

aroach to me is the cardboard filter in a joint...thus allowing you to smoke every last part of the joint leaving nothing left to save but cardboard
