I always put it in afterwards. Always managed to screw up when I put it in bafore.
I cant get the hang of rolling it while the roach is in there.Can you roll them backwards?
Thats when you roll with the sticky stuff on the out side isn't it? I haven't tried it but I doubt it, it took me ages to learn to rolll normally as it was!
I usually roll backwards (sticky on the outside) so that after youve rolled and licked it, you can tear the excess paper off. I roll with the roach in aswell, at the left of the spliff. Just the way Ive always done it.
I put the roach in first, on the right side
I hadn't thought about which end you put the roach in. Although I always put my roach in afterwards it is always the left hand side where it goes as they are always cones.
I save all my roachs and make a salad at a later date.:D
yeah i got a Skull thats hollowed out holds all my roaches, Comes in handy that day your out waiting tell you get some more, Oh yeah i got my Roaches.... and the roach salad owns I am a real beliver in mixing weeds to get higher. Kick ass Sativa strain with a Good Indica Strain gets you blazed.Quote:

I roll with gthe roach in, on a right hand side, and i dont roll backwards.
WTF is everybody talking about? A roach is the last little bit of the joint that's left over after you've smoked it. How the hell do you put it in the joint, especially before rolling it. Am I missing something here??
"roach" can also refer to a little rolled up piece of cardboard in the mouth end of the doob used to keep it open and prevent weed from being sucked through. That's what you're missing.
Yeah in the UK they usually put a small paper filter in it. I do this too (even though I'm from Minnesota) sometimes because then you don't have to hold on to that tiny little roach. It's like a regular cigarette. The filter not only keeps tobacco from coming into your mouth, but it takes your fingers away from the heat.
I sometimes get bits of baccy and herb go in my mouth when I take a hit. Theres an easy way to solve this - get a piece of card thats about 1cm long, and roughly the same width as the roach. Then fold it together so you have something that looks like this terrible drawing -
/\/\/\/\
Squish it together and shove it up the roach so it looks like a couple of 'M's together, and that stops any bits from going in your mouth.
I roll with the roach in, and on the left side, of the spliff.
I dont even bother, not to brag, but my joints are pretty fuckin good as it is, and ive noticed when rollin with a roach they burn faster, and thats never as much fun.
Same.Quote:

Finding roaches is a pain! The first 5 or so joints are fine just use the rizzla packet. But then I start using taxi cards, magazine covers, weetabix boxes etc!
Rolling backwards looks really easy and it is simply done so you are not smoking loads of paper.It was my mates b.day yesterday and he wanted to use his card for roach but I didn't let him because it was a status quo one that played one of their songs when opened but I bet he did when he got home.
I have the joint rolling handbook and some of the ones in there look impossible to do.Anyone make tulips,crossroads or a windmill?
They are far far to complicated. The only times I have ever seen one was on a tv program a few years ago when some girl made one.
uh.... i put it in after i roll the joint. seems like the easiest way to do it. what does rolling backwards improve?
I just cut up some card at home, folder dividers make good roach also. I have to roll with the roach in the rizla at the time of lickin 'n' stickin or it don't work for me...
mmm i fancy a toke..
Afterwards, this way i make the joint coned and whatever shape i want the i can adjust the size of the roach.
I have seen the tulip made several times by my friend I cant do them myself,practice makes perfect they say so I might buy a load of rizlas and have a special smoke weekend :stoned:Quote:

Tulips are really surprisingly easy to make. Just make a baggy with some rolling paper, fill it up with weed (mix), roll a tube from a cardboard thingy and put it in the bag, tie it, smoke it. A tulip never let me down.
I put the roach in first, right or left it doesnt matter. I can't understand how some of you guys can put it in last!
i like putting roaches in before i role becuase it just seems to make the connection between the roach weed an paper sturdier. when i first started to smoke my roaches would sometimes fall out or break off an shit, but now i get compact slow burning good ass js. i used to roach my blunts but then i weened myself off of it.
