Joint, spliff, doobie, number or skaife. Whatever you call them learning to twist up some cabbage and roll a phat one properly is a fundamental cannabis aficionados skill.
Joints are the most favoured method of consuming cannabis globally. Outperforming bongs, chillums and vaporizers in popularity. Counterintuitively they filter out more particulates from the delicious smoky goodness than a water pipe!
The main prerequisite of a good joint is that it should smoulder well. You don't want them to burn fast and hot like a cigarette. That bellows like heat destroys a lot of the goodies and you only receive half the benefits. Slow smouldering joints are flavoursome. The smoke warm and rich with brain-friendly cannabinoids and terpenes.
Read on for the A, B, C of rolling the perfect joint.
