Me spliff won't stay lit!

Man no matter how hard I try I can't get my joints to stay lit. Someone suggested I was rolling them too tight so I tried to roll a looser one and that one burned WORSE than the "too tight" one. I smoke stress so I figure it should keep burnin but she doesn't:(

Right now I smoke blunts because they stay burnin but that's only because of the tobacco, I'm tryin to keep it natural with just weed.

P.S.

I'm using ziggies orange papes

it could be the weed is to wet or your not breaking it up good enough

Well I smoke stress, so it's pretty damn dry lol. But I could believe the breaking it up part.

Do you have a pipe? or bong? maybe you should try 1 of those if the joint's are givin you trouble's.

Oh I have a pipe. But I'd like to be able to roll a joint

Don't give up. Keep trying, and trying, and trying. Over time it will get better naturally.
I can't really help you with what's going wrong because obviously I can't see what your doing.
Try going to youtube and using some rolling tutorials.

I can roll a mean joint, blunt, spliff, or my fav the chap sticker.
but if you dont have the time or ability buy a rolling machine and a grinder. both for about 20 bucks. great time saver.


ps. your herb might not be broken down enough or my be to moist, or rolled to tight.

I used to use a rolling machine and those would stay lit. But I like the idea of rolling with my hands. I mean, come on. How bad ass is rolling your own joint. It's an accomplishment which you're rewarded for immediately :jointsmile:

Well keep on trying man and maybe you should break up the bud better next time. I've never really had a problem with rolling things so I don't know what to tell you.

lol, i agree.
start off using a money bill, try 100 less fingers have touched it
fold in half and put in your herb and roll then peel back both sides and insert a paper and roll.

good practice.

Grind it up real fine, roll it tight. Repeat.

Happy Halloween and Happy 420. I just got baked off my rolled joint THAT BURNT ALL THE WAY BY ITSELF! Thanks Guys :jointsmile:

Nice. I was going to add that if you're smoking immediately after rolling, right after licking the gum, it might still be too wet to really burn well...

It might be that you wait to long between hits.
