Advanced rolling - The windmill

The Windmill is designed to get you spinning in the breeze.

Step 1

Roll a wide cone from a 10cm x 10cm piece of cardboard. Secure it with tape then trim the end to form a perfect cone.

Step 2

Seal the cone with large papers, leaving 3cm of excess paper at the end, as shown.

Step 3

Carefully make four cross cuts at regular intervals around the end of the cone.

Step 4

Make a long, narrow roach, about the length of a pencil, and seal it with papers or tape.

Step 5

Cut the roach in half, then remove a section from the centre of each segment.

Step 6

Insert the two segments so that the cut-outs are completely inside the cone and facing it's narrow end. Seal any gaps with tape or gummed strips.

Step 7

Seal the end of the windmill with the excess paper, using thread or tape. To use the windmill, roll the numbers of your choice around the protruding roaches and enjoy a four-way smoke of quixotic proportions.

How to roll a joint

So lets start with the roach (filter), fold it a few times on one side and roll the rest of the paper around it. If it gets to thick you need to take a little bit off the length of the paper. This is how you will get a nice roach to start with. Roaches are not made to filter the smoke but they do allow it to flow, and the smoke condenses in cyclinders. A good roach also stops the joint from dissolving in your mouth or burning your lips when you chase that last toke. Here's how easy way to make a good one.

Step 1

Step 2

When you practice you can either use tobacco or the real deal. Place the broken down product in the middle of your rolling paper, see below:

Step 3

You should put the roach in before rolling, place the roach like in the picture below:

Step 4

Pick everything up and start in the middle, rolling outwards. Let your thumbs do most of the work and give support and pressure with your forefingers. You should start to feel the mix firming inside the paper. When you have an even consistency tuck down the facing paper edge with tips of your thumbs, wrap the excess paper around the joint, wet and seal that baby! The best joints are firm but not so tight you have to bust a lung drawing smoke. Loose joints taste rough, burn too fast and have a nasty habit of setting light to clothing, sofas, blankets, yeah you get the point.

This is what a joint should look like:

The 3 levels of getting high when smoking cannabis

Here we take a look at the 3 Levels of HIGH when smoking cannabis.  Below you will find a description of what will happen when you smoke cannabis, and what happens when you continue to smoke cannabis.

The Buzz

The buzz is the first level experienced in getting high on cannabis. You will feel a nice, calm, enjoyable, floaty buzz.  First time users may claim to feel stoned. This buzz is good for the daily user who begin the day with a buzz (don't be confused with the "wake & bake").  Catching a buzz is not enough to get burnt out and yet you have not truly reached the level of high. You can always revisit your joint or pipe later and refresh your buzz by taking a couple more hits.  This can be continued through-out the day with few or any ill effects.

Depending upon the potency of the cannabis, any one of these effects could be enhanced or non-existent in your personal experience.  It may take only one hit to catch a buzz or it could take more than 10 hits to catch the same buzz based upon the quality of your cannabis.

A nice buzz can last from about 30 minutes to 2 hours. The effects of getting high on cannabis can be different from one person to the next.  Marijuana is not a physically addictive drug.

The High

This level is generally reached with 4 to 8 hits of decent cannabis.  It goes beyond just feeling a buzz, but you are not stoned either.

When you have continued from the buzz level you can truly become internal with your wild and sporadic thoughts.  You may experience paranoia at this level. That may come from breaking a law to do it, or having to cover it up or hide it to from parents/girlfriends/boyfriends, managers etc.  But you generally feel good, you may want to do something fun or exciting, you will like the taste of food and drink, and can still perform and enjoy your partner sexually.  Audio and video experiences will seem enhanced to you.  Your focus and creativity are generally increased.

Laughing to tears is possible when paying attention to deep, meaningless conversation and humor. 

You may experience uncontrollably laughter at nothing or anything at all.

Any existing addictions like video games, alcohol, sex or adrenaline rushes of any type seem magnified and craved for, when high. Red bloodshot eyes can be experienced while at this level of high (Clear Eyes eye drops can mask this appearance). Great cannabis can keep you really high for hours with minimum burn out.  Most cannabis leaves you with dry mouth, also referred to as "cotton mouth".

Being Stoned

When you continue to smoke after you are already high you will reach the zone, which is happily referred to by many as "being stoned". To some, catching a buzz or getting high just isn't enough.

When a person is stoned, they may experience any or all of the following behaviors;
Friendly, talkative, sexual, less inhibited, courageous, daring, and sometimes even stupid. All of the symptoms of the buzz and the high are still present and usually increased when being stoned.  Some individuals may display a lack of motivation or activity at this level.  A burn-out may occur when coming down from the high itself.

Extreme snacking is a noticeable side effect of being stoned. While eye drops can help with the red eyes, they cannot help with the squinty eyes of a stoner. This often occurs after smoking really good cannabis, or smoking so much that you are glued to whatever seat you are in. This squinty-eyed side-effect has no known cure so far.

Extreme burn-out may cause sleepiness in some at this level. Some people experience a nice body buzz besides their high.  Many individuals (but not all), are NOT recommended to work, drive cars or even as simple as grocery shopping etc. in this condition.

Marijuana Tincture Recipe
