Learn how to roll a joint because rolling a joint is the original way to smoke marijuana. Before pipes, bongs, and weed vaporizers, was the Zig Zag joint rolling paper.
A zig zag is a very thin piece of smoking paper cut to different lengths for personal preference. Joint rolling papers can come in many different variations. The papers are often made out of hemp fiber, wood pulp, or rice. Each type of paper has a unique burn, and a different feel when rolling a joint, but they all serve for
the same purpose, good smoke!

JOINT ROLLING TIPS AND STEPS:
1. Place your prepared herb in the wrap and pinch the ends of the paper together surrounding your herb.
Slide the two ends up and down by using your thumbs and back pressure from your index fingers. As you roll it up and down feel for uneven areas of marijuana, seeds, and stems. Remove seeds, and readjust bud if necessary, consistency is key.
2. Once your buds are consistent and evenly grouped you should be ready to roll a joint. This is where your concentration is key so prepare yourself.
Now roll the marijuana towards the non stick edge of the rolling paper.
3. This is the hard part, so try to keep your cool. Tuck the non stick edge under the opposite edge with your thumb, and pull the backside flap over with your index fingers.
You must roll a joint fairly tight to minimize air pockets. Do this by keeping firm thumb pressure on the flap being tucked under, and pull the opposite flap over tightly with your index fingers.
4. Once you have tucked and pulled the opposite edge over, simply continue to roll the joint up with the goal of making it tight by keeping thumb and forefinger pressure.
5. When you are done rolling a joint lick the edge down, and air let it air dry.
Once it is dry take your poker and press any loose buds back into the joint ends.
6.Twist the end that you want to light on fire, smoke, and feel the marijuana effect

The crutch:
Anytime you roll a joint you should use a crutch. A crutch acts somewhat like a filter for your joint but mainly they just prevent the end from closing.
Often times in sessions the joint may get soggy and close. Prevent this by tearing off a small piece of a business card, or your joint paper package about 1/4 in. wide by 3/4 in. long. Roll that tiny piece of
paper into a 1/4 in. spacer that you stick into the smoking end of the joint.
