are you serious? ive never smoked a joint with tobacco in it ive had bunts with tabacco in it thats about all id use tabacco with weed for
yea everything ive heard and read said that you should mix tobacco in it...
yes, i never rolled with tobacco and never will havent met anyone that has (well face to face anyway)
oh ok cool, i didnt think it was necessary, just making sure.
i wouldnt want to taint the lovely taste of mj with tobacco,btw dont believe everything you read on the internet just the majority :D
people call it a "spliff" around here if you mix tobacco. i think it tastes gross!
Here in Belgium almost everyone roll there joints with a mixture of weed (or hasj) and tobacco. Or they take the tobacco out of a filter cigarette or they take tobacco from rolling cigarettes. Even in the coffeeshops in Holland they roll with mixtures of tobacco and cannnabis. Maybe it is because the weed here is more pure than in the states.
I smoke cigarettes like a phene but would never mix it with my ganj. Pure is the way to go. Three gram blunts of straight MJ all day.
well yea i didnt use tobacco.i rolled my first joint last night, it seems a tiny bit loose, but still firm enough. how do you think it looks? i want to smoke it by myself, but i think i will save it to share with a friend.
if i'm seeing it correctly, the mouth piece looks a little long
heres a pic with the mouthpiece out.
if thats was me it would of been gone its just a natural reaction to light it as soon as im done rollin
Here's a joint just rolled by me: not really straight lined, but big headed (mixture of purple haze and tobacco/ 50% weed & 50 % tobacco)

It's absolute bullshit really, tobacco doesn't make it burn that much better, just roll tight. Eliminate tobacco, use a pipe/bong/bubbler. Practically everyone English will sware by the bacyy coz they love it and they learned that way, so it must be correct... It's not worth it, you don't NEED it, k? K
This is what males are for! They even add a bit more THC! Tobacco can't do that! Tobacco is an addictive drug! It is carcinogenic! And it tastes nasty (and your kisses will taste bad too)! Pot FIGHTS cancer! Start reading!

There's more in my "Tobacco vs Cannabis" section of my "Medical Studies" post (link is below) But I'd use oregano or mint before using a dangerous drug like tobacco to cut my pot!
The reason tobacco burns so nicely is all the freaking chemicals they put in. The list is amazing (google it) Saltpeter is one of them- it was once used to prevent erections(!)- don't know if it worked that way or not (I'm female, so I don't have to worry about that). But you guys might want to think about it since tobacco on it's own can lead to problems in that department later on in life. Tobacco messes you up in so many ways! Don't use it! Granny:hippy:
most americans dont smoke weed with tobaco in it, it is mainly a european and canadian thing (french?) i have never actually tried to smoke it mixed with tobaco.
thats a pretty damn good joint for your first time, nice job, if you still have more weed cut the filter in half and pack some into that side
There is really no reason to use tobacco over more weed. Smoke a cigarette after you smoked weed, though. It boosts your high. Well, at least for me it does.
Only reason I'd use any tobacco at all with herb is for the smell of tobacco in public places, and even then you don't need a whole lot. Also, might want to try to get some roach material without inks, probably not good to accidentally smoke.
Its and eastern canadian thing. i have lived all over canada, and if people in the west see you rolling with tobacco they will judge you for it haha. its an ontario quebec/parts of the maritime thing. Even though i live in Ottawa and a lot of people roll with tobacco im a purist, weed only.Quote:

only time i ever smoked a ciggarette in my life, i smoke two after a joint and i threw up everywhere, havent touched em sense, i would not recommend smoking tobacco at all really not even while highQuote:

ok so i put the rest of my weed in the joint, and cut the mouth piece shorter. the question i have is im going to share this with a couple of friends in a couple days, and if i pull the mouth piece a little bit it falls out. is there anything i can do about this?or do i just have to live with it until we smoke it?
that probably means its not tightly roled, try to twist the filter with the paper around it and apply pressure, but dont twist too hard or youll rip it, otherwise you could just take the filter out and twist it like a regular j
Agreed. I never use a filter/mouthpiece with a joint. Just try to roll a tighter joint next time or if all else fails buy a rolling machine. You'll have a perfect joint every time.Quote:

yea i just took out the mouth piece and just twisted the end it was in. i plan on smoking it by myself tomorrow,haha i reckon i will be really fucked up because i have like no tolerance yet.
I prefer mouthpieces. It keeps the joints structure and keeps your lips from getting burned. I always use a mouth piece. Use like the back of a pen or other stick-like thing to pack the back in before you twist it. Keeping it packed in keeps the joint burning straight and slower. I always use only cannabis. Here's a fatty I rolled a while ago that I shared with a friend :jointsmile:
some people argue that having a joint with a mixture of nugget and tobacco burns better, but i disagree, and i like the way cannabis-only joints burn.
in terms of filters, i always use one. it prevents the end of the joint getting "juiced" and closing up, and you can smoke it right down to the filter and toss it opposed to carrying around a roach.
ok so i put the mouthpiece back in. but a couple centimeters after the mouthpiece there isnt much weed and i didnt roll it tight enough in that spot so it bends a little in that area.is there anyway i can pack the mouth piece down further with like a pen to make it not as flemsy in that one spot?
whenever that happens to me, i have to roll again. or else, i find when i try to push the filter up, it makes the weed too tight in that area and doesn't smoke well. i say roll again, until you get the perfect joint, then smoke it. it'll be so much better :jointsmile:Quote:

I usually roll with Joker King size papers so I can get them how I want them to be. I used to suck a rolling but I got much better at it. Roll it with the mouth-piece in. (I just roll up a piece of paper for the mouth-piece).Then use the back of a pencil or small stick to pack the back in. To make sure behind the mouth-piece is packed, I push the mouth-piece forward and it packs the weed tighter behind it. Then I just cut off the excess paper with sissors and have an nicely rolled joint.Quote:

To each their own.
I shall bash a spliff if i wish, I shall smoke a spliff if i choose. Pure ganja ftw.
Wow, thats an Eastern canadian thing eh? There is another reason I'm not too fond of Eastern Canada, so its true there is a lot of crap weed in Eastern Canada? I'm very proud to be from BC!Quote:

I live in England and no-one around where I live (in the midlands) has heard of smoking a spliff without tobacco which annoys me because I hate the taste of it so now I only smoke the joints I roll. Pure all the way
the tradition probably came from France since they were the ones who invented rolling papers. before then tobacco and cannabis were smoked in pipes or tobacco leaf (cigars). they probably brought papers to the carribean when the colonized it and started filling them with the native green leafs
