Have A Solid Joint Rolling Kit

Using subpar material to roll your joint will make it less pleasant and inviting. It's just like having ice cream with a soup spoon or having a cake baked in the microwave. The tools you use affect the outcome. You must take good care of your kit, not just to make it complete, but to keep it clean and hygienic.

The best kits contain:

• A small and easy to wash bag
• The strain, extract, and oils of your choice
• Rolling papers
• Rolling tips or filter
• Grinder
• Nail scissor (optional)
• Silicone bowl
• Silicone slick
• Lighter

The bag is to keep every item on the kit in a safe, dry, and clean space, so you don’t lose your paraphernalia. Of course, the most important things that you need to have is cannabis and rolling papers. We strongly recommend that you carry rolling tips for a more comfortable, and even easier rolling experience. The grinder, nail scissor, and silicone bowl are for pulverizing the cannabis. The silicon slick serves to store your marijuana from germs, humidity, and impurities.

Make Yourself Comfortable Before Rolling Your First Joint

Set yourself in a nice place, protected from the wind, with a comfortable chair, and a plain board. Use a rolling tray for an even better experience. Give yourself some privacy. Play a sweet song in the background. Remind this is a ritual and try to relax. Rolling a joint can be a moment of mindfulness. Once you roll your first joint in beautiful shape, you will roll all your future joints in beautiful shape.

Make It Like A Powder Before Rolling Your First Joint

An extremely underrated part of rolling a perfect joint is to grind well your cannabis. It’s incredibly frustrating when your joint keep smothering after a few puffs. The best remedy for smothering joints is to crush your marijuana to tiny bits. We also suggest that you carry a nail scissor to break it even in smaller pieces.

The more you crumble your marijuana, the more constant is the ember and cleaner is the experience. Also, a better-grinded pot makes it easier to conform to the shape of the joint later.

If you enjoy extracts, prioritize cleaner extraction processes like ice-o-lator, charas, and rosin presses. If you are going to smoke solvent-based extractions, don’t forget to heat it with your lighter so the solvent can evaporate.
