Well I kinda prefer joints or blunts because then I don’t have to clean any pieces, I have pipes and bongs but there is just way more effort that goes into cleaning them than rolling.

I’d much rather put in the effort to clean my bong every couple weeks than have to put in the effort to roll a joint every time I wanna smoke but that’s just me I guess

especially if you do the salt + rubbing alcohol trick to clean it, then it’s easy as fuck to clean a bong, only shitty part is not being able to hit the bong while you soak it in the alcohol for like 2 hours

one time I forgot to smoke one last bowl before cleaning my bong, had no papers or blunt wraps, ended up turning one of my camel cigs into a spliff as my solution, but unlike a hand-rolled spliff it was just weed for the first half, and then switched to just tobacco for the rest of it. shit was honestly kinda nice, even if it was a little bit of a bitch to dig the baccy out of it

Yea if im going to smoke from a pipe or bong I’d rather it be clean for each use. Plus after some practice rolling doesn’t take that much time or effort, it’s just a matter of actually getting the hang of it. I always mess up when trying to tuck one side in and roll it up without it getting loose, I just need to get back into practice until I figure it out again

no need to soak the bong. just put salt and 90%+ isopropyl, cover the holes, and shake like crazy for about a minute and it’s spotless. just make sure not to smoke until all the alcohol evaporates

smoke shops sell raw rolling machines for like $5-10. i prefer hand rolling but it rolls very well and very quick if im making a few joints

I thought about getting one but I really like having the skill to be able to do it, there’s something so satisfying about creating perfection

I can roll huge ones but I can only like start it and then stuff it the rest of the way, so like kinda sorta rolling huge ones. But I’m really trying to focus on just actually rolling instead of just getting it started and then finishing it the rest of the way by stuffing it

I met this one girl who literally shoved all the tobacco out of the blunt wrap without breaking the wrap and just stuffed weed inside it was some of the weirdest shit i’d seen

I have heard of people doing that, I feel like it takes way more effort to get the tobacco out than just splitting it and rerolling it, I did try rolling a blunt for the first time in a hot minute but I’ve recently started wearing nails regularly and I thought they would help me split it open and I just ruined the wrap to the pain I couldn’t get it to not fall apart, but I’m getting more so I can try again

I spent like three hours reteaching myself the basics especially the part where you tuck and actually roll but then I ran out of papers and I’m almost out of filters

tbh i used cardboard when i ran out of filters

Anonymous #3 5d

Like from boxes?

Anonymous OP 5d

yeah it’s the same thing as filters i just cut little strips and fold it like you would a paper fan 3-5 times and wrap the rest of the cardboard around it and cut excess, tbh i’ve even used printer paper for one and cut old filters out of my roaches. ALSOOOO smoke shops sell these glass reusable filters that work pretty decently for $3-5 if you wanna try those!

I did get a glass reusable filter from the dispo once, it came with a j that was coated with kief but it’s too small for everything I roll

i roll most of mine to keep the skill and bc i enjoy it, but the roller really is a luxury if i wanna roll a few small joints and go somewhere like a hike.

Anonymous #2 5d

also the roller makes small, straight, cigarette looking ones and can’t make cones. so i always hand roll a cone and enjoy some mini cig joints on occasion. also i think they do have bigger rollers but i like the small

Soaking it gets the resin off a lot better in my experience, like if I just shake it then it’ll leave some of the really stuck on shit, but if I soak it then it always looks like the day I bought it. Soaking the chamber isn’t always necessary but it helps a lot on the bowl piece and downstem

Shaking it with the coarse sea salt is faster imo, I use coarse sea salt and 99% isopropyl alcohol and it works like a dream everytime

Also wrt cleaning the bong after each use, I think it’s good to change the water after each use but I only deep clean it once every couple weeks
