Other cannabis products such as kief or concentrates can be included, but a joint typically just contains ground flower. Joints are popular because they're easy to transport and smoke, and their hand-rolled nature allows for customization to fit the mood or task at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What's a spliff?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A spliff is nearly the same thing as a joint, but with the addition of tobacco. Including tobacco provides a nicotine buzz that some enjoy, and it can help stretch a dwindling supply of flower. The word \"spliff\" is believed to be from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/products-and-how-to-consume\/whats-a-spliff#:~:text=Why%20is%20it%20called%20a%20spliff%3F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">West Indian origins<\/a>&nbsp;and popularized in Jamaican-English slang. However, the exact roots of the word aren't clear and its usage in Jamaican slang doesn't directly refer to a spliff as we know it, but rather a large or potent cannabis-only joint. The ratio of a spliff varies depending on preference but is usually about half cannabis and half tobacco.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-image \">\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?ssl=1\" data-modal-open=\"lightbox_4185\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?w=1600&ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=1024%2C682&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1023&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 476px, (min-width: 1218px) 772px, 100vw\" alt=\"\" title=\"Click to see a larger version of the image\">\n\t\t\t<\/a><cite>Photo by: Photo by: Gina Coleman\/Weedmaps<\/cite><\/figure>\t\t\t<div id=\"lightbox_4185\" data-modal data-modal-hide-heading data-modal-manual-close hidden>\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Image lightbox<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?w=1600&ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=1024%2C682&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1023&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181008_BluntSesh069.jpeg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"100vw\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t<button role=\"button\" class=\"a11y-modal__close-btn\" data-modal-close-btn>\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"currentColor\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M13.414 12l4.293 4.293a1 1 0 01-1.414 1.414L12 13.414l-4.293 4.293a1 1 0 11-1.414-1.414L10.586 12 6.293 7.707a1 1 0 011.414-1.414L12 10.586l4.293-4.293a1 1 0 011.414 1.414L13.414 12z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>What's a blunt?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blunts are worth mentioning as they're a close relative to a spliff. A blunt is rolled by emptying a pre-rolled cigar or cigarillo \u2014 which is typically made with a tobacco leaf \u2014 and<a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/dictionary\/blunt#:~:text=Combination%20of%20tobacco%20and%20cannabis\">&nbsp;filling it with cannabis<\/a>. Alternatively, you can use blunt papers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pros and cons of a joint<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several pros to including joints in your consumption rotation. First, they are relatively&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/introduction\/how-to-roll-a-joint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">quick and easy to roll<\/a>&nbsp;and can be readily transported in cigarette cartons or other small carrying cases. Since they can be lit and put out repeatedly, joints are a convenient way to have a few puffs now and more later. There's also the quintessentially social cannabis experience of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/dictionary\/joint#:~:text=A%20joint%20smoking%20session%20starts%20when%20the%20roller%20puts%20joint%20to%20lips%20and%20flame%20to%20joint%2C%20takes%20two%20puffs%2C%20and%20then%20passes%20it%20to%20the%20person%20on%20the%20left.%20Sharing%20is%20part%20of%20cannabis%20culture%20and%20spreading%20the%20wealth%20comes%20naturally%20when%20you%20smoke%20a%20joint.%C2%A0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">passing a joint among friends<\/a>. While there aren't many cons, one is that they can burn quickly or unevenly if rolled too tightly or loosely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pros and cons of a spliff<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The<a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/products-and-how-to-consume\/whats-a-spliff#:~:text=Gina%20Coleman\/Weedmaps-,Benefits%20of%20spliffs,-Spliffs%20offer%20a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&nbsp;pros of a spliff<\/a>&nbsp;mirror the pros of a joint with the main difference being the effects of the nicotine. The mixture of THC and nicotine may provide a different experience than that of a joint rolled with cannabis only, but it depends on the smoker. Like spliffs, blunts offer the effects of nicotine as well, but these effects tend to be more pronounced with blunts because of the cigar tobacco. Spliffs may also be a bit more discreet than joints because the tobacco may mask some of the weed smell. However, a notable con is that tobacco is potentially addictive and carcinogenic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bottom line<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both joints and spliffs have their strengths and weaknesses. While cannabis smoke has been characterized as less harmful than tobacco smoke,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41598-020-63120-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">smoking both cannabis and tobacco<\/a>&nbsp;may cause irritation and damage to the lungs. Other than tobacco, the real difference between joints and spliffs may just come down to which experience you prefer. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joints and spliffs are some of the most common methods of smoking cannabis flower.
