Step One: Grind your flower and roll up filter.

You want to get comfortable first. Find a spot where you can sit comfortably ( it may take a while) where you can set your tray down in front of you while you roll. Grind up your flower and dump your cannabis onto your rolling tray. Get your pack of papers and pull out a new paper. Grab your filter and roll the rectangle into a cylinder shape and place it at the end of your paper. This will be the smoking end of your joint!

Grab your filter and roll the rectangle into a cylinder shape and place it at the end of your paper. This will be the smoking end of your joint!

Step Three: Tuck and Roll

Now that you have your paper filled with your cannabis, you are ready to try rolling it up. You WILL spill some of your cannabis while trying this step so make sure your hands are over the tray to catch any falling pieces. At the end with the filter, tuck the bottom of the paper around the filter  and roll it upward to create the beginning of the cone shape. While holding this firmly in place with your dominant hand, you can use your other hand to tuck in the bottom lip of the paper in bit by bit moving away from the filter. As you slowly tuck more of the paper in, continue to roll the filter side up with your dominant hand. To keep the shape of your cone while rolling, you can lightly, pinch and slide along the length of the joint and apply a bit of  pressure to keep your cannabis packed in. Keep rolling and tucking until you reach the lighting end of your paper.

Step Four: Seal your Joint

You are doing great so far! Now you need to seal your joint. It is common to lick the end of your joint by using your tongue but if you want an alternative to licking, you can use a small paint brush and water. Start by licking the thicker end of the joint on the glue strip along the top. In one licking motion you can lick the glue strip from side to the other. Now that it’s sticky, you can finish by rolling the top of the paper down and sealing the glue along the whole joint. Look at you go!! You finished the hardest part and have a joint that you could smoke right now! But wait… there’s more.

Step Five: Pack down joint and add in left over flower

After rolling up your joint, you may have noticed that it is not nearly as full as it was when you started and you may still have a good amount left over on your tray. Your joint may be loosely packed with flower and you can use this step pack it more tightly. Tap your joint about 5-10 times on your tray with the filter side down. Each tap should pack your flower down and leave you some space at the top end to sprinkle some more in to create that desired cone shape. Use your poking tool to pack down the remaining cannabis that you are loading into your joint. Once you are satisfied , you can fold in or twist the end of your cone so none of your hard work spills back out.
