Grindie?

Two questions:

Is it more smoke efficient, when packing bowls, to grind up weed and then pack them, or simply pack it by stripping a nug?

Also, does grinding up your weed allow you to pack more bowls or fewer?

I realize grinded up weed burns smoothly and faster, I just wanna straighten out any misconceptions I have on grinded up weed.

Grinding up weed then putting it in a bowl makes fatter hits and it does seem to get you higher. I'm not too sure about it making for fewer or more bowls. It all depends on how tight you pack the bowl.

Grinding then packing makes it burn faster and allows more smoke from my experience.

While grinding does burn faster (could just not grid it as much) it also gives you kif which can give you hash and hash rock. That is the only reason i use a grinder.
