Flavoring your own joints?

[HighTy]

Are there any do-it-yourself flavoring methods?

[jimmy8778]

well, in most head shops they have flavoring liquids that are supposed to be put on tobacco to make the smoke flavored, you could probably use it for your weed, ive heard some talk of it on here before, some guy said it worked wonders. just look around at headshops, or on online headshops, they have them.

i would be curious as to what other people think, for i too am interested.

[HighTy]

Seriously, because I love a good quality taste when im smoking weed. after the first time i started rolling my own joints, I havent touched my pipe since.

I looked up some of those flavorings and they even claim to have certain herbal effects such as more intense dreaming etc. Sounds interesting. I wont diss it til i try it though.

[TheMetal1]

I've tried pretty much all flavors of Tasty Puff. Comes about the size of small Visine bottle. Head shops should sell it. It recommends a couple of drops on/in whatever you are smoking. Obviously allowing time for the liquid to dry, which doesn't take very long. Flavors may include Blueberry, Cognac, Raspberry, Strawberry, Vanilla, Cherry, Mango, Peach, Mint.... etc. etc. It is not very expensive so it is definitely worth a try if you're looking for that sort of thing. I think it is more appropriate for tobacco flavoring, or masking flavor of some unsavory herb. It does not claim to alter the substance it is applied to (doesn't get you "higher"). It's strong so it will cover up the taste of high grade bud. It works best to put a few drops into a water pipe. It is easier to remove the lasting flavor from your pipe that way. In a bowl it will taste like that until you thoroughly clean it... a bong will just need a good rinse. Good luck :thumbsup:

Stay :D and Keep :jointsmile:

Tasty Puff!


Good shit.

[NaughtyDreadz]

I like putting good weed in my bowls... that usually has all the flavour I need..

[HighTy]

personally, i dont like the taste of thick pot smoke. flavour makes it smoooth for me.

Then it is my estimation that you have not tasted actual combusted marijuana. ;)

I'm just kidding. Different strokes for different folks. I didn't enjoy the taste of cigarettes when I smoked them, but the addiction relief and relaxation was why I kept going back. Just because you do not enjoy the flavor of the smoke... doesn't make me question your relationship with cannabis. BUT, if you start saying Mary is fat, smells bad, or is not drop dead gorgeous... people may take offense and start swinging. :jointsmile:

Let us know what flavor you decide on... take 2 drops and call us in the morning. :thumbsup:

[HighTy]

oh no, I love mary jane, dont get me wrong! i quit smoking cigs though. thats what really kills you.

:wtf:

Well... the taste of schwag surely is bad, and they say (because i never tried) good bud tastes good... maybe thats the difference... i dont know...
The taste of smoke itself hadly is enjoyable for me, even if it were of weed... anyway... when i rolled joints long ago (now i only smoke hash oil) i used to mix some fennel (erva-doce) seeds to it... it makes the taste far more pleasant... and the smoke feels less harsh... so its very worth a try. :thumbsup:

[HighTy]

erva-doce seeds? where do you get those?

[Coelho]

I think its called fennel in english... erva-doce is in portuguese... anyway, here we use it to make tea... which is also very tasty, even better than its smoke.

[GreenDestiny]

I've tried some flavoured rolling papers that add only a subtle taste. Some I didn't notice a difference at all. Not sure which brand names they were, but none were a bad experience.

As for the liquid drops.... only had one experience with it and it was a bad one. Again, no idea what brand name, but I think the flav. was peach. Some friends wanted to try it and used my glass pipe for it. They used WAY too much liquid and didn't even let it finish drying before lighting it up... that was the funkiest nastiest bowl I've smoked in my life plus it got my pipe all funked up with that stuff. The smell/taste finally went away after smoking about a 1/4 oz. of normal buds. Could have cleaned it but I had done that not long before the incident.

oh yeah, and then there's always putting a tastey drink into your bong instead of water... I never did that, I dunno why. but this is about joints... hmm... well you can always smoke a joint through the bong!

I personally love the natural weed taste and would never want to change it.

[jimmy8778]

yeah, i wanna try the drops, infact i will probably pick some up next week when i get paid, and it seems as though im in the headshop every other week each time im getting paid picking up a new piece, its crazy, and ill definitly not put it in a bowl, i dont need to ruin one of those, i hate cleaning bowls, bongs are ok.

[HighTy]

You probably put way too much flavoring in it. I read one of the products labels and almost all of them say only one drop. Must be extremly concentrated.

[salaam]

Sometimes I mix my bud with ground cloves. It numbs your mouth a bit and makes the smoke extremely smooth as a result. If you like the taste, you might want to give it a try.

[GreenDestiny]

You probably put way too much flavoring in it. I read one of the products labels and almost all of them say only one drop. Must be extremly concentrated.

I'm guessing they used half the bottle for one bowl, it was still wet and sticky... I wasn't in the room when they soaked it. Just the thought of how it was makes me wanna gag..... ahhh, I hate that I didn't get to try it as it's meant to be done, I'm sure it could have been good... but now its sorta ruined for me (like if you get sick from eating something you love and then don't wanna eat it for a long time) no big loss for me though.

have fun experimenting

[HighTy]

yeah, too much of something can make it unenjoyable. Especially the first time. I'm gonna try those cloves for sure!
I just thought of using ground mint. Any experiences on that?

[HighTy]

I was reading on the internet that people usually mix 25-40% ground cloves in whatever their smoking.

[GreenDestiny]

I've improved the taste of schwag with orange peels. I just put a little piece into a container with the weed for a little while until all the moisture from the peel is gone and the buds are soft, then let the bud dry out so it returns to normal for smoking, and it gives it a nice orange taste. I haven't tried it with any other bits of fruit that way.

[HighTy]

:stoned: mmm i love citris. I'm gonna try that...Once I can afford some more weed lol.

[jimmy8778]

yeah dude, i may have to try the orange peel with a g or 2 from my next pick-up

[silkyblue]

Cloves and orange peels go wel togther or cinnamon sticks





I had some herbs once

tasted like soap :wtf:

no fanks man

[xxMJAHxx]

haha the drops sound nastyyyyyy xD

[jimmy8778]

cinnamon seems like it would be good.

sounds like im going to seperate my weed into several baggies, and try many different things, i like the fennel seed idea by coelho as well.

though, i will always keep a majority aside at first due to the fact that i actually enjoy the taste, and aroma of burnt, and unburnt MJ.

and if the other ways work as well, then i may split it up more.

i wonder about Lemon Peel though, i think i would like the taste of lemon, i shall thy that as well.

[TheMetal1]

Cool suggestions all around :thumbsup:.

If you haven't used fruit peel to add flavor/moisture to your bud... be careful. If you use too much or leave it in too long you will most likely experience mold problems. I knew someone that thought it would be a good idea to use half an orange peel and leave it in the bag for a week.

:( = Him

Have fun
Keep :jointsmile:

[HighTy]

Half an orange peel?? wow lol.
Ok I bought some ground cloves from vons today. It definatley has an interesting smell. Reminds me of burnt cinnamon lol. Hopefully it's better enjoyed smoked. Once i get a sack tonight. It's test time!

[jimmy8778]

yeah, i actually never thought about that part, but the way i see it is ill leave all my stuff alone for the duration of 2 sessions of being high, back to back, so about 4 hours.

in other words, when i make a pick up, im going to smoke 2 twice before removing the "flavorant" or until testing the flavor.

but one thing i will never do is try the cloves, i had a bad experience where i took a handful of raw cloves and put them right to my nose, i threw up promptly afterwards from the pungent aroma, and i havent really had a stomach for cloves since.

[HighTy]

Ok, I tried the ground cloves.

Put about 20% ground clove and 80% Bubbleberry sativa strain.
Slow burning zig zag paper.

I actually didn't like it much at all. I think i'm looking for more of a fruity or sugary herbal taste I think. lol. It was worth a try though.

[jimmy8778]

i can imagine that the clove gave it a sort of spicy "christmas-y" flavor. My friend smoked a pack of clove cigs once, it disgusted me, and i almost threw up when he smoked one around me, i just feel that clove is not a spice that people were meant to use, it is just disgusting.

[epilepticme]

I wonder what they make that stuff out of? Is it safe?
I kinda like the taste of cannabis as is.

[xxMJAHxx]

EWW LOL the cloves sound even more nasty than the tasty puffs..

[HighTy]

Yeah, so I definatley dont recommend ground cloves unless you somehow like the taste of them in the first place lol.

I think next im gonna roll a few joints, put them in a baggie with some tangerine peels and hopefully the papers will soak up some flavour :-D

[silkyblue]

You ain supposed to 'smoke the cloves and orange peel " stonies

let it masurate in the cellophane

not like glade or renuzit




kinda like the taste of cannabis as is.

[HighTy]

Ok, I've got another Idea to put to test. I wonder if I squeezed a few drops of tangerine onto a q-tip and laced the paper with it's juice, then let it dry completley before smoking. I cant imagine a bad result. I'm definatley trying that one today.

[HighTy]

Ok I got a jay saturating right now with some tangelo peels in the baggie. I laced it with a small amount of it's juice and let it dry before i put it in the baggie. I'll open it up and try it tonight in a few hours.

[jimmy8778]

i believe its the oils of the peels that give it the aroma and flavor, so wouldnt you want to remove the zest of the citrus, then squeeze that to remove the oils, which you would then want to rub onto the joint?

just a thought.

[HighTy]

Actually I think I will try that too. I'll press the oils out of the orange peel and swab it over the jay with a q-tip.

I smoked the first jay and the flavour was mild but other people around me said they definatley smelled the orange in the 2'nd hand smoke. I think a better result will come from just the peels themselves.

[jimmy8778]

if you roll the orange around on a table or surface for a few seconds first, then score the peel, without going through the peel, you can actually get some of the oils to leech out of the skin of the fruit. I dont think you would need much, but there are many different methods.

and thats cool that it covers the wasted smoke, it atleast helps to cover the smell if it is a concern for you.

[silkyblue]

DONT smoke the cloves and orange peel matter of fact dont put harmful crapola into ones body

you are a temple


puff with care

cloves are used as a naturale numbing agent, oil of cloves, will when used as oil or ground up will pick up the aroma be prepared for the' rush' a slight flavore with the medicinal herb

oh the pain

[jimmy8778]

my plan was never to smoke orange peels, it was more of removing the oil of the peel to flavor weed with.

and i dont smoke cloves, and adding things, especially herbs with other healing powers, may be desireable to those who benifit from using them, like MMJ, but adding to it to recieve other desired effects, flavor, or even numbing, say if someone experiences chronic jaw pain, a numb mouth may be a desired trait, along with the pain relief from the MJ.

[GreenDestiny]

Longest I've left an orange peel in with my weed is maybe about an hour, then I dry the weed back out immediately after to make sure no mold gets it. It doesn't take long at all for the dry weed to absorb the moisture. I can't wait til next time to do more experiments.... like repeating the process a few times for the weed before smoking it.

I smoked out of an apple a few times.. it was an interesting experience. you could just do that but make the intake hole small, joint sized, and that might work out pretty neat.

rubbing the orange peel's oil onto the papers might work, although could give it a more bitter taste. Def worth a try.

[Potcake]

Cloves and orange peels go wel togther or cinnamon sticks





I had some herbs once

no fanks man

I definitely have had weed that tasted like some sort of cleaner or something. It was gross, could have used some tasty puff to cover that shit up, but it was just some average weed so we just sped through it :jointsmile:

Do you leave the cinnamon stick in with the weed just like the orange peel?

[silkyblue]

Do you leave the cinnamon stick in with the weed just like the orange peel?
==================================================

I just let 1 or 2 cloves sit in the cubby

smoking cloves I wouldnt reccomend it


the best life never leaves your lungs

puff with care

[bluntwiz]

I definitely recommend the orange peel... if you like citrus. the weed smell/flavor goes really well with citrus...

I love weed smell when smoked and unsmoked but I like to change it up a bit with the orange peel..I especially recommend it if your weed is dried out, it brings back a little moisture and tastes great!

but be careful!! dont leave it in too long or it could mold!

[AnEpicMelody]

Just remember, citrus oils are flammable, so I'm guessing if you put em on your papers they burn a little quicker...or EXPLODE! haha. But I too enjoy the taste of bud as-is. Especially when it's a new strain, I like to taste the difference and what-not. The orange peel thing does sound intriguing though. I had some cali orange bud that smelled/tasted like orange. Probably by some such process.

[Dr.Chiefer]

There are blunts and wraps that are already flavored. I know Juicy Jay's makes like every flavor possible, but the taste in them is not very strong.
If you like to drink and smoke one thing you may want to try is putting wine into a bong. I have tried it and it is a little intense, the wine flavor is very apparent and you get some alcohol fumes as well. but yeah it does get you drunk and high.

[ExxxTACY]

i got some papes from a smoke shop here in texaZ
they were cognac flavored. i could hardly taste the diffrence but it did make it more plesureable.
smoother if you'd like..
