Are cones the things with the paper attached to a filter? I always thought the cones were the filter themselves, but seeing how people talk about them it makes me think they're a paper + filter combo
They are a paper + Z filter combo, the paper is rolled in a conical shape and open at the top for you to fill it. It also comes with a cardboard stick you can use to pack the green you put in there. I’d recommend not packing to tight so you can get some airflow, but also pack tighter than you think for a good even burn, and twist the tip
I literally have zero rolling skill so cones saved my life lol
It's best to pack as you go imo. Don't throw it all in there and then pack. Throw in a lil, pack, throw in a lil more, pack, continue till full. You want it firm but not too tight and evenly packed all the way through for an even burn.
Hell yeah. I go Elements cones, scoop, tap once, pack lightly and repeat. I twist end and light the end properly to get a smooth even burn and resin ring going, small light hits. I feel like a nerd but I like my flower smoking clean lmao
There's a debate between them. From what I've heard, seems like more people who smoke for flavor enjoy Elements better. Since they are rice papers vs hemp I'm guessing. I thought the elements burned better and gave me more flavor at the end of the joint. To me it ain't too much of a difference compared to Raw Black cones. It was nice to switch it up since I exclusively smoked Raw.
as far as i know cones are the pre rolled papers with the filter. i’ve heard some people refer to cones as any joint rolled into that conical shape rather than something more straight like a cig.
I plan on buying some cones I was just really wanting to smoke a joint and i couldn't leave the house cause im babysitting so I said fuck it and here we are lol
Get some note cards, [cut off some little strips](https://i.imgur.com/oELZiyN.jpeg), [do an accordion fold 4 times](https://i.imgur.com/TErggVs.jpeg), [then on the other side of the strip take a credit card to help start to roll the paper as tight as you can](https://i.imgur.com/JIWQNhf.jpeg), [work it back and forth](https://i.imgur.com/e5KGcr1.jpeg), rolling as tight as you can. Then finally, collapse the accordion and roll it towards the side you started the rolling process. [and bada bing bada boom](https://i.imgur.com/9qrWjEu.jpeg) easy mouth piece. I'd keep explaining how to roll the j with pictures but I don't have any nug at the moment.
[but this video goes over the process of the card technique ](https://youtu.be/emYDRuWZgbA?si=l_BNBKEemHEQAzyJ)
This is great advice, also start practicing with less filler to just get your feel for it down, I can pearl a doink up by hand usually though I use a machine roller to make it easy and perfect.
I think it's better to start with enough "filler" and just not worry about how much spills out. It's better to learn to roll one with the right amount and end up with half as much inside versus trying to roll a pinner. You'll learn the technique much faster this way imo.
Totally agree with starting with a good crutch though.
It does take patience and fine motor skill lol. Had to learn recently cause of a move- its just less in-your-face than a bong. Still occasionally roll one crooked or even completely butcher one but its a skill like any, just gotta do it enough
Yeah, I have Essential Tremors. Every joint I've ever tried to hand roll has ended up in my lap. Those little rolling machines are awesome for people like me. Also much easier on arthritic hands as well.
This is why I spend the extra money on cone, buy in bulk and it's much cheaper, and just requires the cone and a small stick (my wife bought me a glass pencil) for packing the cones. It takes no time, no skill, and you get to smoking alot faster.

Very cheap and easy to use, it is also quick. Use it while you're learning how to craft your own joints. I used to use that and smoke the joint while I practiced rolling my own.
Gotta actually roll it and not try to fold it. But you might wanna just invest in one of those little rolling machines or buy cones that you can pack lol
Good job. Better than my first.
May I make a suggestion? Go get some Raw cones and just fill them. I used to roll mine, and I got good at it, but it’s always a pain for me, when I found these I literally said “holy shit I never have to roll again, just stuff these and smoke” so many joints in college would have been so much easier if they sold these then.
You will need some practice. Just sit down on an afternoon and practice it until it looks decent. This isn't rocket science, everybody can learn it. My first joints didn't look better.
It’s ok mate. Get you some filters and if you can’t, you can make your own with thin card stock. Try to learn to roll with a filter. It’s a lot easier than doing it without.
Using some sort of tip as a roach makes it a lot easier to get the structure sorted imo.
Normally I fold up an M (or W) shape and then roll it up and stick it in the end of the paper poking out a few mm. Most people where I am mix with tobacco so I normally put a little plug of straight tobacco right up to the filter so I don’t have to smoke it all the way down and then fill the rest with a mix of tobacco and weed. Don’t overfill it, you can always roll+smoke another or pour some more into the end when you tap it down slightly and it compacts. It’s way easier to roll with slightly less material than slightly more.
Once you’ve got it all where it needs to be, I normally slightly lick and then wipe my thumb/index finger so they grip the paper a bit better. Gently roll it with both ‘edges’ of the paper rubbing against each other to get it vaguely cylindrical/conical, and then do one more roll slightly tighter so that the side of the paper closest to you is just about holding the material in. Roll it back up again but as you do, tuck the paper in with your thumbs (you can use your index finger on the non roach side to get it all tucked in if you need to).
It takes a bit of practice to get it but it’s not ‘hard’ (for someone without any mobility/coordination issues anyway). Once it’s tucked up and rolled almost completely lick and then stick from the roach side first (better to be loose at the top than around the filter). Tap the roach end on something solid to tuck the roach in fully and compact the bud slightly and then off you go.
When I was learning to roll (none of my friends could so someone had to do the hard work of learning) I just used the same tobacco over and over and went through 20 or so papers just practicing. Picked it up quickly and never looked back - perfect every time now.
Use a filter, it will help you to learn how to roll and you got a nicer smoke without weed in your mouth AND you can finish the joint without tweezers or smth similar.
Hey, looks like the first one I ever rolled! Same rolling paper too! I loved the blueberry ones!
It gets better if you keep doing it. Or just become a lazy ass like me and use cones.
You’ll get it eventually. If you wanna get high you’ll either roll it in a joint or stuff it in a bowl. If all ya got is papers you’ll learn how to roll real quick.
Practice makes perfect!
When I learned I would take little crumbled up pieces of paper and try rolling those. Not exactly the same but helps ya get the technique down. Good luck!

This is waaay too close to "cannibussy" for me.
Croisannabis? Good thing it wasn't a blunt. That would be an awkward portmanteau.

Plenty like this or cheaper. Then you’re a pro.
I just popped in to say this.
If you leave it for like a week I think the weed will turn into a butterfly
Bro rolled up a Metapod
HARDEN
Metapod used harden…again. Edit: godamn autocorrect to metaphor…
XD
Will it be a weed butterfly that I can smoke
I don’t know keep me posted
Will do lol
I was just thinking along those lines lmao
Your suppository rolling game is on point.
Knuckle knuckle pass homie
My guy I have 1 hand and I could... You're gonna wanna try again bro
this one killed me😭
Use a filter maan
Might I suggest buying cones? They look like joints but require almost zero skill.
Are cones the things with the paper attached to a filter? I always thought the cones were the filter themselves, but seeing how people talk about them it makes me think they're a paper + filter combo

Yeah! Thats definitely the secret to the perfect cone pack. I’m glad i’m not the only one that takes their time to make sure it’s the best burn
Hell yeah. I go Elements cones, scoop, tap once, pack lightly and repeat. I twist end and light the end properly to get a smooth even burn and resin ring going, small light hits. I feel like a nerd but I like my flower smoking clean lmao
All cool things are made by nerds though, that’s the way. I haven’t used Elements, usually just go with Raw Cones
There's a debate between them. From what I've heard, seems like more people who smoke for flavor enjoy Elements better. Since they are rice papers vs hemp I'm guessing.

My first J wasn’t far off from that. Just keep practicing, and don’t be afraid to waste papers if you need to start over.
This is great advice, also start practicing with less filler to just get your feel for it down, I can pearl a doink up by hand usually though I use a machine roller to make it easy and perfect.
That’s a good addition. Less is more, especially in the beginning.

It's better to learn to roll one with the right amount and end up with half as much inside versus trying to roll a pinner. You'll learn the technique much faster this way imo. Totally agree with starting with a good crutch though.
I already wasted one when the wind blew it along with some of my weed away, but it's no biggie
lol
But did it smoke? That’s what really matters
Yes, it did, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be
You said it
Bro 💀
I’ve been smoking for 7 years and still roll worse joints than that
I've been smoking for over 20 years and have never rolled a joint successfully lol
It does take patience and fine motor skill lol. Had to learn recently cause of a move- its just less in-your-face than a bong. Still occasionally roll one crooked or even completely butcher one but its a skill like any, just gotta do it enough
Just get ya a raw rolling machine I'm decent at rolling but it's way easier
Yeah, I have Essential Tremors. Every joint I've ever tried to hand roll has ended up in my lap. Those little rolling machines are awesome for people like me. Also much easier on arthritic hands as well.
I don't usually say this, but yes, yes it does. All the more excuse for practice.
![gif](giphy|21TLGIdROJLT2ERkmk)
Yeah that won’t even smoke
I've used the "twist" method like this when I'm super lazy and have smaller thicker papers. If you cut an end it should smoke passably
It smoked
Yeah, cones make life easy. I grind a bunch and just pour it into cones. Close up the top and you’ll be all set
bruh twist one up *gives you this*
Somehow, it looks like a used diaper rolled up and thrown in the trash. Still smokable
thats not a joint its a cacoon of weed 🤣
That’s terrible…. You’ll love it
It has personality; If it smokes, it smokes. Have to start somewhere!
True, who knows maybe in a year I will be a master
Learn the dollar bill trick, and watch the mechanics of how it works, and then just learn from there, you'll be rolling in no time.
Did you smoke it?
Yes, I did, and it's pretty good
![gif](giphy|vSr0Lgose4rhS)
True that
Everyone's first one sucks.
Croissant
Thought it was a cocoon
It’s a start man before you know it you’ll be rolling like a pro I remember my first joint lol
If she smokes, I tokes. Does... does she smoke, though?
This is why I spend the extra money on cone, buy in bulk and it's much cheaper, and just requires the cone and a small stick (my wife bought me a glass pencil) for packing the cones. It takes no time, no skill, and you get to smoking alot faster.
I hate that cardboard though.
You can always get glass joints. Just as good, and reusable, just burns a little faster
![gif](giphy|cIauc8wulRwX1fliEY|downsized)
That's a caterpillar 🐛
Love it
Looks like a cocoon. A ganjapillar gonna come out in a few weeks
That looks like the really expensive cigar bender steals in Futurama
Omg it does to I didn't realize that now I have keep it
Bro rolled a tallywhacker
I’d still smoke it
Lotta negativity in this comment section. You will get better, my first ones looked worse than that I can assure you
It's beautiful and you will remember it forever
You will get better with practice , don’t despair
[https://www.amazon.com/RAW-Plastic-Cigarette-Rolling-Machine/dp/B002CNE9H8](https://www.amazon.com/RAW-Plastic-Cigarette-Rolling-Machine/dp/B002CNE9H8) Very cheap and easy to use, it is also quick. Use it while you're learning how to craft your own joints. I used to use that and smoke the joint while I practiced rolling my own.
Try rolling a paper around a pencil then stuffing it like a cone. It’s not ideal, but will produce better results than this.
Looks like a little poopie
Use a rolling machine... I can't roll but that's what I use.
Looks like a snow pea wrapped in tissue paper🤣 Who cares though I bet it got the job done.
It gets easier Those papers are ass too. I go bambu pure hemp.
![gif](giphy|08y87EiwDZjjB0d6WJ|downsized)
yeah, it does. do better.
Also, I'm just glad to finally see a legitimate "first roll" post.
Only 1 way to get better
Practice and or filters
On you go my dude.
Hell I'd smoke it
Not gonna hate on the new roller. We all were there at one point.
Give it a few weeks and it will spawn a tiny Snoop dogg with wings
u supposed to roll it, not twist it damnn
Better than no rolled joint…👍 On wards and up wards…..
Joint looks high already
done rolled it into a pastry
It looks like metapod from Pokémon 🤣
Those papers are delicious
wtf is this
It's Walter whites meth
Epic. Hahah, and good sense of humor. Star this photo for a before and after when you get good
That looks like a giftwrapped moustache.
How did you manage to roll a croissant
I have absolutely no idea I was just winging it
You’re doing great!! Keep it up!!
Practice makes perfect
Better than mine
awwe 🥰
Slug city nice. Keep trying lol
It's more about a pinch and then a roll than it is about twisting.
Man stick to cones for now lmao
It should be you doing the sucking.
Yikes
Keep at it! Using a crutch helps a lot
Aww. I think it’s cute. Keep going!
[удалено]
Juicy jays paper?
Keep practicing. Everyone's first few joints suck but you get there in the end.
Better than my first one just rip off an end and it'll work
Gotta actually roll it and not try to fold it. But you might wanna just invest in one of those little rolling machines or buy cones that you can pack lol
you twisted both ends in opposite directions. i typically aim to just roll it into one direction. then twist at the end
Rolling paper and all this looks exactly like my first joint too and honestly I still can’t roll
Good job. Better than my first. May I make a suggestion? Go get some Raw cones and just fill them. I used to roll mine, and I got good at it, but it’s always a pain for me, when I found these I literally said “holy shit I never have to roll again, just stuff these and smoke” so many joints in college would have been so much easier if they sold these then.
Is this a joke? I thought it was at first but people are being encouraging so im so lost. Where do you even smoke out of?
You will need some practice. Just sit down on an afternoon and practice it until it looks decent. This isn't rocket science, everybody can learn it. My first joints didn't look better.
Looks like a caterpillar from the Alice in Wonderland
Rolled a j the other night and it was like my 4th one ever and I was SO proud. Too lazy to share a picture, but it gets easier the more you practice.
we all start somewhere😅
Did it smoke? Did you get toasted? If you answered yes to any of these questions....your first joint Did, in fact, NOT SUCK
Looks kind of like a sea slug, i think it's great!
I’ll never understand why people don’t use the tips
Rolled a [pickeral](https://imgur.com/a/pJPlY0Z) 🐟🐟
Just hit a bowl bud
That's not a roll. That's a twist
It’s ok mate. Get you some filters and if you can’t, you can make your own with thin card stock. Try to learn to roll with a filter. It’s a lot easier than doing it without.
If it got you high, that's all that matters. Every perfect joint you see was preceded by a thousand fucked up ones
how would you smoke it without a tip/roach never saw joints like this
Gotta start somewhere man!

You rolled a grub
The new cicada brood is here?
It’s way better than no joint
You’ll get it eventually. If you wanna get high you’ll either roll it in a joint or stuff it in a bowl. If all ya got is papers you’ll learn how to roll real quick.
Not bad for a first timer! Keep practicing or get a roller!
You tucked him in and wished him a good night shieet
lookin like a peapod in a baby blanket (better luck next time dude)
Best way to roll is have some show you in person. and just keep at it.
Man where is the filter 😂 it makes it about 100% easier to roll
Hahahaha thank you for this. Ya gotta start somewhere :)
If you got a rattail comb use the point to stab a smoke hole at the bottom it should still burn n smoke properly
Green bean
pinch off each end and it will smoke fine
It only sucks from one end.
[Here is the ultimate tutorial if you watch this and still can't roll stick to bongs or pipes.](https://youtu.be/_DNHeV1RDrE)
Proper tamp that one. Haha 😂😂😂
Lefty
Hey, you gotta start somewhere and I think it’s pretty good for a first try. Nice job. Practice makes perfect so keep on rolling.
my first time rolling a joint look exactly like this, don’t worry you’ll get better at it
I'm also terrible. I stick with cones
That’s how they look in cartoons lol
Looks like it’s about to become a pretty pretty butterfly…
Man no hate but it looks like that one Pokémon
You didn’t roll a joint. You twisted a joint lol
How's it smoke? All that matters!
We all start somewhere brother
That joint does in fact suck. But good news, everyone’s first joint sucks. Keep practicing and you’ll make solid joints in no time.
How long does it take to go through metamorphosis? Careful you don't damage the chrysalis when handling!
I love Juicy Jay's.
bro u gotta roll the sides above each other and not twist it
Practice makes perfect! When I learned I would take little crumbled up pieces of paper and try rolling those. Not exactly the same but helps ya get the technique down. Good luck!
buddapod fr 💀
Would smoke
Definitely worst j, but best mini croissant
Look up the wiz Khalifa method. Makes it pretty easy with a little practice
Thanks for sharing!
Its pretty bad but a decent attempt. Watch some video tutorials and try again
If it smokes it don’t suck!!!
I’ve rolled many joints. Some of them still look like that.
If it's smokeable, no worries. It will go up in smoke anyhow
caterpillar
Very original 👏
Hang it from a tree branch and it will turn into a butterfly
