How much weed is in the joint?

As you can guess, the amount of weed in a joint can vary depending on how big you want to make it and how strong you want the effects to be. 

Are you just starting your adventure and wondering how to roll the perfect joint? A good rule of thumb is to use about 0,5 gram of weed for every rolling paper. This will give you a joint that's big enough to enjoy but not so big that it's difficult to smoke. Thanks to it, the process will be more manageable. Once you feel good at rolling, you can start working on full-gram joints.

How to choose the best rolling paper?

So, how to roll the joint? The next step is to choose the right rolling paper. This is a crucial part of the process because it'll affect how your joint burns. 

You can find many different types of rolling paper on the market, made of different materials and in different sizes. The most popular options are made of cellulose, hemp, or rice. Each type has its own characteristics, so you'll need to experiment a bit to find the one you like the most.

If you're a beginner, we recommend starting with regular-sized rolling papers that are easy to work with, and you won't have to worry about making a mistake. Once you get the hang of it, you can try using king-sized papers or even Delta-8 pre-rolls.

• Start by grinding your weed - this will make it easier to roll and will also ensure that the joint burns evenly. Try to form a nice, fluffy pile of ground cannabis.
• Use your fingers to gently pack the cannabis - take the rolling paper and place the cannabis in the middle. Be sure to leave some space at the end of the paper so you can lick it and seal the joint.
• Now it's time to start rolling. Fold the paper in half, then start rolling it back and forth between your thumbs and index fingers. Once you have a nice, tight roll, lick the adhesive strip and seal the joint.
• And that's it - you've successfully rolled your first joint and now you can enjoy its intense taste!
