Generally
A joint is somewhat larger mostly than one Cigarette and easily conical formed. The active substance content in the form of (Tetrahydrocannabinol) can depending upon quantity and quality of the Cannabis strongly vary. Usually varies the quantity used hashish or marijuana between 0,2 and several gram, whereby less experienced consumers turn mostly also less Cannabis into the respective joint.
For the rotation of the joints there is varying, special from different manufacturers, in length, width and paper condition Cigarette papers. Usually become Longpapers (specially for a long time cigarette papers) or rips (label name of continuous forms of the role) uses. Alternatively several normal cigarette papers can be stuck to a larger (two-sheet, three-sheet...). Thicker paper possesses thereby the disadvantage faster than the Cannabis to burn.
Often becomes at the thin end Mouthpiece, also Filter or Cousin called (English tip), in form of a small sticking tube (z. B. manufactured from the pasteboard of a cigarette box or a ticket) trained; this increases both stability, and the pavement grip of the joints. The moreover the length serves of the tip the cooling of the smoke. For this one can do also special Tip Tubes acquire, which are filled with activated charcoal as required. The activated charcoal is to filter pollutants from the smoke, is however permeable for the active substance .
Variations
A joint can be rolled in different ways: Usually that becomes PAPER, as also with turned cigarettes, with the sticking side upward around contents. With the Dutch kind, also einlagig, backflip, Tag, operated turned or inside out mentioned, the PAPER is put in such a way that the adhesive strip shows downward. Then it is pivoted with something exercise and the PAPER at the sticking side is moistened. Subsequently, the supernatant part of the PAPER is away-burned or torn off, in order to have to along-smoke fewer papers. Further Joint kinds are that Schnurrbart or that Helicopter; two joints at a long Tip with to pull in the center cut hole.
Tulip (English for tulip), a ball-like, short and extremely thick joint is like a head on a very long Tip puts. With that Windmill (English Windmill) concerns it an accumulation of four or more normal joints, in summary in a large Tip, which are smoked synchronous. That Dia. moon (English for diamond), a joint is in the center in two splits and to both sides together runs, so that one ignites it in a place, he however during smoking two glows developed. The fantasy that Kiffer is almost boundless, which concerns trick -, building -, roll methods.
That Blunt the same is like a joint in the reason, only it does not become with normal zigarettenpapier, but with aromatized tabakblaettern turned. Blunts there is cherry, strawberry, apple, honey, chocolate, vanilla etc. in all possible flavours, like for example. Blunts are smoked usually purely, thus without tobacco.
Effect
The effect of a joints varied depending upon the THC quantity of the added marijuana and can be reconstructed scientifically smooth from countless reports of former consumers. Remarkably frequently a sensitization of all sensory organs in the field test, beginning in the intoxication, could be determined.
The psychoaktive effect with tobacco resembles a steep curve, which flattens then over 30 minutes. The active effect of the THC works however 2 to 6 hours longer. Different additives to the commercial strengthen the effect and shorten the time up to their using. Here is as an additive mentions, which into the brain accelerates the transport of the active substances nicotine and THC.
Purely, rising with tobacco or Knaster smoked the curve of the psychoaktiven effect is slow, reaches the high point after 15 to 30 minutes and flattens then slowly.
In relation to the effect of one Bong the effect of a joints is clearly weaker, and/or. it requires for the same effect more hemp material. By the slower admission of the active substance it does not come with the Jointrauchen also to a sudden intoxication. The craze danger is estimated therefore of some experts with the Jointrauchen as smaller than with faster working consumer methods.
Tricks
Around a joint to turn beautifully it requires something exercise. For simple joints Longpapers and a filter together-rolled from a piece of pasteboard are usually used. Those Mix (also mixture called, mixture from tobacco and Cannabis products) with the filter on the correct side of the PAPER one puts and one together-rolls.
Another often used method is that plugs, whereby first the lamella with the filter without Cannabis or tobacco is pre-turned and then mix gradually with a thin article one in-plugs.
Into the Netherlands Coffee Shops there are pre-turned joints to buy, usually a mixture from tobacco and marijuana or hashish. Sometimes also marijuana purely. A joint can be manufactured with a special centre lathe.
Other
As generally is the case for drugs usually there are innumerable names and scene names also for the joint, strongly of Local color are coined/shaped. Also most frequently the joint becomes because of its conical Form as Bag designated.
