Rolling Joints w/ Tobacco

[Mr. Spliff]

I'm no expert on rolling joints so maybe that's my problem, but mine burn mad quick usually. I tried adding some tobacco in with the weed and it burned a lot slower.

So just a couple of questions about this. Do a lot of you guys do this? Is it really unhealthy?

[hippiemommaida]

:hippy:one of my exs did. I smoked Kools back then and he liked adding the menthol taste. I liked it then, but I quit tobacco on my fiftieth b-day.:hippy:

[CheeseOnToast]

I always use tobacco, but its personal preference.

[snicklefritz1825]

Tobacco is never healthy, but if you already smoke it then you are already screwed.

[Lankan Lion]

Only time I'll ever use tobacco is if I don't have enough weed by itself for a spliff and have no choice but to roll. I just don't like the taste and smell of most commercially sold tobacco though. If you use a little tobacco in a joint I don't see it being all that harmful since the nicotine, tar and all that other good stuff involved is in small amounts.

But hey...why ruin such a great tasting plant with cancer leaf?

[MaryjaneAndHashley]

I almost always use a little tobacco, its just how its done here.. as for the health part i dont think it changes anything...i mean a 1/10th of a cig cant do much...and you're already smoking something so wtf.

it doesnt rly change the taste, unless of course you put a whole shitload. It doesnt even smell. Weed smells/tastes too much to be overwhelmed by a pinch of tobacco.

I think it depends on whether or not you already smoke cigs. I can usually tell if a spliffs been rolled with batch after a draw or two because I haven't smoked so much as a puff of a cigarette in 3 years

maybe, its possible, I smoke cigs sometimes (like not even 1 or 2 a day, and only with friends) but i still think they're nasty. But in a joint I cant taste it at all..

i can tell if a joint has tobacco in it or not. the joint taste more bitter or bland.

[smokedoja]

tobacco is the nastiest shit, i used to smoke like 5 years ago and it just makes u feel like shit and have an addiction with nothing in return
so
FUCK THAT SHIT!

[NightProwler]

i occasionally add tobacco, and when i do it's for one or all of these reasons:
*im running low on weed, so to make it stretch out longer i add tobacco
*i want it to burn slower cuz im with more people.
*and sometimes i just enjoy the headrush i get from tobacco since im not a tobacco smoker

9 times out of 10 though, its just straight bud

[beavermint64]

hell screw that, if im low on weed, i add some mint flakes.

[OLDE ENGLISH '800]

^ off one joint? i dont think i ever smoked just one joint and couldnt get higher.

[Paulkishi]

I like to sometimes put my marlboro smooth tobacco with it sometime, makes my weed tasted wintergreeney.

[Mr. Spliff]

Well I already smoke cigarettes so the taste doesn't matter to me. Even though you can't really taste it. But the only time I do it is when I'm not trying to get real high, just a little blazed. Like before work or something.

[WeedyBoyWonder]

I use tobacco with my joints, hit a bong then smoke a joint is the best way to go. 60% weed, 40% tobacco.

[spliffstar22]

if it's not burnin long enough your not rolling it tight enough, and theirs air pockets in your spliff, you gotta really pack the weed down so it's nice and tight, and if that doesn't work add tobacco, cause your weed might be very dry and crunchy, and if that doesnt work, coat your spliffs and blunts with a little billybee honey, and it'll burn for 15-20 min with you just taking little tokes, same high, but more enjoyable than burning a 5 min spliff, you can really kick back and relax and toke.......

[Reefer Rogue]

A veteran almost killed me once when I rolled a joint in front of him with no tabaco he told me its such a waste of weed because you can only get so high.

That 'vet' is wrong. You can get higher then one joint. There is a peak, it's not after one joint though.

Edit: it was so amazing and refreshing to smoke with my american friends again, i can't fucking stand baccy in joints, all my stupid friends here do it and i can't stand it. It's one reason i like to smoke by myself, the main reason is due to my spirituality and bonding time with Jah.

Yeah I can't smoke spliffs, I get to about 3 quarters through before i start feeling like I'm going to throw up and I end up spending my high laying in my bed wishing I didn't feel like shit. :(

[13thirteen]

Hell no, I smoke with weed only

[Bluntmasterbabe]

I smoke cigs...I know its a horribly nasty habit...tryin' to quit;)

But I would never ruin a joint by mixing it:)

THANK YOU!

finally someone who agrees w/me
at least someone here knows how to smoke:D

sorry i just had to say something about that honey part,
honey is NOT, repeat NOT meant to be smoked, unless you wanna die young dont listen to spliff

[thedapper1]

am the same as u weedyboywonder bong then a tobaco joint aah nice an blazed :jointsmile:

[bobhasbitchtits]

I say it's mostly preference. I sometimes roll spliffs but only if I have loose tobacco intended for rolling. I'll never empty a cig to roll with that tobacco, nasty stuff to smoke without a filter. Typically if I do roll with tobacco, I use more cannbis/hash than tobacco anyway. I use it as a filler or a burn inhibitor to let it last a bit longer, or perhaps give me a heady buzz before the cannabis or hash kicks in.:jointsmile:

[modest moon]

one of my friends loves spliffs, so whenever i'm burnin with him it's either blunts or spliffs...i don't mind it if it's actual tobacco like bally shag or whatever. if you're cuttin up a marlboro though, fuck that, get that shit outta my joint!

[LA.Jgirl]

I feel the same way. I wish I could just lay the cigs down! But as you say I aint mixing it . There is just something about the taste of the weed I love!!

[DubSack13]

i dont like using tobaccy in my joints, it gives me a light/heavy headed high.

[doc holiday]

my favorite tobacco to roll with is a pinch of the tobacco from nat sherman mints. greatest lung killing cig ever.
makes the joint taste like minty heaven.

[Weedywildwoman]

When I lived in England I would mix my crumpled hash in with some benson and hedges. So when I moved to the US I added loose tobacco to my weed in joints. I don't smoke tobacco anymore and just use weed. I have a funny story about that... This guy I knew and I were smoking a joint that I rolled. He had always giving my crap for adding tobacco to my joints. Anyway, he was smoking and after about half the j was finished he goes "Damn, I can really taste that tobacco in the joint. You need to quit putting that in". I just started to laugh and told him he had had enough and that it was just weed! He was a bit of a dumb-ass and felt like such! I guess he had some terrible taste buds! :jointsmile:

[texas grass]

im a full flavor cig smoker and i dont like tobacco in any of my green

i roll my own cigs tried all types of tobacco. american spirit is my fav over all european and luxury like nat sherman, peter stokes ect

it takes away the flavor of the green

[texas grass]

i smoke a cig after i smoke a blunt joint or bowl

[ganjzilla]

i actually do this often...because it makes it burn slower and i dont mind the taste because i do smoke cigs...but i use rolling tobacco for this, not the tobacco that comes in my cigs

[Rabbit Lion]

personally i dont but visiting in the UK most everybody does it and it really ruins the joint...it makes it seem "impure".

[dankus maximus]

meh, i like it. it DOES burn better with the tobacco, and it lights more evenly/easier with the tobacco, and it stays lit more easily with the tobacco and from what i can tell the smoke feels thicker. im not gonna go chopping up a PJ or a dumaurier to stick in my joint though, but if theres a pack of benson and hedges around, the tobacco in those is pretty good. Rolling tobacco however is far more pleasureable! i dont really mind the taste, depending on the weed it either compliments or clashes with the flavour. like if i have a bright tasting fruity sativa, im not gonna stick a ton of batch in there, cause itll clash horribly with the taste. But if i have some heavy earthy tasting indica, then i find that the tobacco adds to the overall flavour of the joint.

but at the end of the day, its all personal preference. if everyones cool smoking a batched joint, then ill roll up a spliff, if not, well then i just skip that step when i roll.

[texas grass]

if you want a doobie blunt bowl or whatever to burn better you just need to break up all the green evenly but not too fine and it will never fail for a good doobie

[smokerider]

I smoke cigarettes but no I never blend in any tobacco with my weed when i'm rolling.I like the smell and taste of weed too much to mix tobacco in with it.

After i'm stoned for awhile i'll light up a menthol and enjoy the tobacco.Nasty habit though and hopefully i'll quit smoking cigarettes soon and spend more time smoking and enjoying my weed.

[Gazella]

man just roll it tighter..:D
and if you enjoy tabacco add some.. and if you have few weed add some.. and if you like to be buzzed add some.. your the one that smokes 'emm..
eventhough i have weed some times i feel like adding some and if you care for your health quit somking everything. ther is no thing such as ''smoking healthy'' nothig you smoke is good for your lungs, there are some nastier shit than weed (weed isn't nasty but don't make your lungs better) but that dosn't mean its healthy

[tuete]

it has been said that nicotine gets to your blood stream faster than thc when smoked, so smoking thc and nicotine together may get you higher faster. even by a split milisecond. i think many europeans smoke tobacco in their joints because it helped burn the hash evenly. now that more are smoking the plant, tobacco may not be neccesary.

[Vaporize Me]

I have never heard of people doing that..ever. lol no one does that around where i live.. i dont think i would ever do that. but i dont smoke cigs so..

[mellowbroad]

i rolled my first joint yesterday (im usually a blunt person but i didn't have a wrap or enough weed) and out of curiousity i decided to add a bit of my menthol tobacco to it and HOLY mother of jesus it worked well for me. i swear the hit was stronger, it wasn't clean(kind of harsh in my opinion) but i felt myself getting higher by the second. Lasted quite a bit too.
i talked to a brit friend and he says everyone over there does it bc the weed is much stronger there and you have to kind of "dilute" it, in a sense.

Nooo But i want too pretty badly.. i want to go backpacking through Europe.. ive known people who's brothers/ sisters have done i heard its an amazing experience

[RedLocks]

my boy got same prob with joints, I remember him commenting one day on damn that shit is lasting long ass time man not like his. I've rolled with tobacco before, but I smoek cigarettes so it don't phase me a bit. Gotta use the right stuff though, cigar tobacco got a taste that blends with the herb a bit better I think than say a gutted Newport ;)

[Orange Goblin]

Nver with weed man. But definately when smoking hash.
