    ok i have a huge issue with rolling a joint.the issue is i cant do it!!ive only been smokin weed for a few months.for some reason my joints end up real fat in the middle and real thin on the ends.i have to rip one end off of it so i can smoke it.as im rolling the weed keeps falling out the ends.i went and got a cigarette rolling machine thingy.but its either rolled to tight and i cant suck through it or its too loose and i end up inhaling a chunk of weed.

    so can anybody tell/show me what im doing wrong?ive tried watching friends as they roll it but that hasnt helped much.

    break weed up well- no stems and relatively small peices
    put in joint
    point your hand up, thumbs on one side and both hands pointer and middle fingers on the other.
    do rolling motion back and forth, bringing your thumbs down and up, and vice versa with your other fingers.
    PRACTICE!
    good luck, search for a vid on youtube if you cant get it

    Yeah there is quite a few good vids on you-tube, it can also be harder to roll cones then straight spliffs, but I find I naturally roll cones anyway. But yeah- youtube.

    Also, try practising with tobacco first, even if you dont smoke, just roll with it until you feel confident to roll a joint, and not mess it up.

    if its to fat in the middle you should make sure the weed is evenly distributed on the paper. also leave a little space on both ends. once you have it rolled, twist the lighting end and make sure its sealed so no weed comes out. there will still probably be a decent amount of space left in the joint too cause weed does fall out, so on the open end of the joint, put some bud into it and pack it down using a pen. or if you want to use a lot of weed and make an amazing joint, you can roll the paper before putting weed in by just rolling around a pen, marker, etc. then you just make a lighting side and stuff weed in and pack it down with a pen. those are how i do it. the first way takes less time but i find the second way makes amazing joints that last a while

    Have you tried using a rolling mat?
    I agree try with soft rolling tobacco and mix it with some weed, that will stop it falling out the ends and it will be nice and squishy to roll.
    Also dont be scared of it, its only a joint have a good play with it!

    Use a dollar bill for rolling. If weed falls out the end just use a pen and pack it in once you have licked the joint/blunt in my case.

    its all about practicing. if any of your friends know how have them show you and you just repeat. have them kinda guide you and if any weed falls out you can just pack in the open end once you have it rolled. then smoke lol

    I used to not be able to roll so I just used a roller, pipes, bongs, etc. I wonder why your joints from the roller wouldn't be good? When ever I used the roller they were the fattest joints ever.

    first i like to take a paper and fold the non glued bottom side up a little less than half way. then the bottom part i just folded on each end i make a tiny fold so it creates a pouch. then i gently fill this pouch with well broken up weed until the pouch is nearly full. then i make sure it is all evenly distributed within the pouch so it rolls even. then i put my fingers across the bottom and roll until it reaches the gummed end and i lick the gum without too much saliva and seal it up....i always sucked at rolling j's until i tried this method...hope it helps bra
