Pre-Roll Cones | The Basics

109mm Pre-Roll Cones


The cannabis industry, like tobacco products, has seen the inevitable transition from hand-rolled to pre-rolled cannabis. Learning how to roll a joint used to be considered a rite of passage into the ganja society. However, unlike older smokers, the present generation has not embraced the art of rolling a joint.

Rolling a joint on your own can be messy, and it takes some practice and a variety of tools, including rolling sheets, dried flowers, a tray, a grinder, and filters. Don't be concerned if you haven't perfected the rolling method but still want to enjoy a joint. Pre-rolls have stepped in to save the day.

Pre-rolls have taken the attention away from pipes and are now the preferred method of inhalation. With recreational marijuana becoming increasingly popular in more states, most pot dispensaries are now stocking pre-rolled joints.

Do you want to see what kind of pre-rolls are available at your preferred store? Here are the fundamentals of what they are, as well as the various market variations and their numerous advantages.

What Are Pre-rolls?

The term "joint" has been renamed "pre-roll." It's currently popular as a method of consuming cannabis. A pre-roll is a cannabis-infused joint that has already been manufactured. It's made composed of a wrap or rolling paper, ground cannabis, and a filter securely attached to the bottom. It can be as small as the tip of your little finger or as large as your smartphone. Individual tubes or multi-packs of it can be purchased from a marijuana shop. Pre-rolls are a cost-effective, disposable, and all-in-one smoking option.

Types of Pre-roll Cones

Below is a detailed list of some of the most common varieties found in most dispensaries:

To make your pre-roll, you can choose from a variety of pre-rolled cones and tubes. Paper type, size, shape, filter type, and branding possibilities are the most important elements. Let's start with the many sorts of paper. You can choose from five different types of paper:

  1. Unrefined Brown
  2. Refined White
  3. Hemp Wrap
  4. Cordia Palm Leaf
  5. Tendu Palm Leaf

The most basic papers are hemp, polished white, and unrefined brown. These are your normal rolling paper options, ranging in weight from 12 to 14 grams per square meter.

The paper industry uses GSM to compare different paper stocks. GSM stands for grams per square meter. GSM can be thought of in our sector as the amount of paper material you will smoke, which will affect the amount of smoke you get every puff. The "burn rate" is another term for this.

All these factors combine together to produce your own brand and the smoking experience that goes with it. Unrefined brown paper, for example, is better suited to natural, organic companies with kraft packaging, whereas refined white paper is better suited to a clean, modern-looking brand.

A hemp wrap cone or palm leaf tube will go in perfectly with your brand if you're looking to create a more cigar-smoking experience.

It's critical that you take the time to taste test the various paper grades to determine which ones will be more effective for your brand, audience, and strains. After you've figured out which paper type you'll use for your pre-rolls, it's time to think about the form and size of your pre-rolls.

The Benefits of Pre-rolls

Pre-rolls are popular for a variety of reasons, including the following:

  • You don't have to do the clumsy task of rolling any longer. Purchase it from your favorite dispensary, and get ready to light up!
  • When compared to dabs, bongs, or bowls, they are more discrete.
  • They have a less potent effect than edibles.
  • You can puff and pass among your companions with ease.
  • They enable personalization by including caviar, kief, hash oil, and other ingredients.
  • Pre-rolls can be purchased in bulk for a lower price.
  • Regardless of how picky your taste buds are, the large assortment of pre-rolls will have something to suit your preferences.

How to Choose Pre-rolls

·        Strain choice:

You must be aware of the cannabis strain contained in a pre-roll. Look for the words "sativa," "indica," or "hybrid" on the label. 

·        Trim vs. whole bud:

Trim (leftover marijuana leaves) or ground-up whole buds can be used to make pre-rolls. Whole marijuana pre-rolls, on average, have more potency and flavor than their trim counterparts.

·        Packed tightly:

A good pre-roll is well packed, which allows for an even burn and beautiful white ash. As a result, customers get a fresh, pleasant taste.

·        Moisture content:

The greater the smoking experience, the drier the cannabis flower is. Mold and germs thrive in damp environments, such as the sealed pre-rolled joint.

·        Sizes:

Pre-rolls come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and the optimal size for you will be determined by your own preferences. Long or short, plump or slender, straight or tapered are all options. The majority of pre-rolls are offered individually or in multi-packs in 0.5-gram or 1-gram sizes.

·        Chosen closure:

A twist or a flat fold is commonly used to close pre-rolls. Some people prefer a fold because it's sleek and compact, while others prefer a twisted end because it neatly hems in the joint and doubles as a wick.

·        Safety:

Rolling papers can be made out of flax, rice, hemp, or wood pulp, and they can be bleached or unbleached. To avoid inhaling paper materials or chemicals, choose pre-rolled joints manufactured from unprocessed and thin rolling sheets.

The Bottom Line

As the public's opinion of marijuana shifts, more people are publicly accepting its use. As a result, pre-rolled joints have gained appeal, and it's possible that all smokers will embrace them, not just the younger generation.
