When just starting out, a good way to roll is using a hard, flat surface. Put the weed in, form the blunt around it, and then put it down on a table and just roll it up using the tips of your fingers. Using this method, you will be able to roll it as loose/tight as you wish...its just harder if say, you're in a car or there are no surfaces around.

Also, save the Dutchie for later on...it can be tricky. Phillies & Owls are perfect for the beginner and should never really rip(unless stale), and are probably as thick a cigar as you want. Blunt wraps can rip though, so maybe pass on those too.

And like everyone said......slow....down.....
