<h2 id="0">Differences between A Joint And Blunt</h2>
<p>Though <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/different-ways-of-vaping">marijuana vaporization </a>is quickly taking the limelight in the cannabis community, smoking still holds its place as the <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/how-to-roll-a-joint">universal way of consuming cannabi</a>s. Perhaps that's because rolling is a fascinating art, or maybe because rolling up and smoking is just easier.</p>
<p>Joints and blunts are both commonly smoked all around by cannabis enthusiasts. They both differ significantly in terms of size, color, rolling materials, and more. Depending on your preference and the effects you're looking for, you may choose either of these ways.</p>
<p>But the biggest question remains, what's the big difference between a joint and a blunt?</p>

<h3 id="2">What Is a Joint?</h3>
<p>If you live in a place where medicinal and recreational marijuana use is legal, then you're probably familiar with joints. Joints are a classic way of smoking cannabis. They are small, portable, and you can conveniently toss them in your backpack or pocket and light up while on the go.</p>
<p>They are <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/how-to-roll-a-joint">prepared by rolling up high-quality</a>, well grounded buds inside a 'transparent' thin rolling paper. Previously, rolling papers were commonly white, but now you can find them in various colors.</p>
<p>When rolling a joint, most people include a paper filter (crutch) to increase its stability and allow for smoking the entire joint without the risk of burning their fingers.</p>

<h3 id="3">What Is a Blunt?</h3>
<p>Blunts come closely after joints in terms of popularity. In fact, they are so similar to joints as you prepare them by rolling high-quality, well grounded cannabis in paper. The biggest difference comes in the type of rolling paper used.</p>
<p>Blunts use tobacco papers that usually have a brown color and are thicker than the ones used in joints. Blunts are especially loved by people searching for a heavy hit and an added buzz to the high. Generally, blunts are bigger than joints and you'll smoke them for much longer.</p>

<h3 id="4">The Differences Between Joints And Blunts.</h3>
<h3 id="5">The Content</h3>
<p>The first and most important thing to note is that the content inside a blunt or joint is pure cannabis. You can choose whatever strains you please but don't add any tobacco or other substances in there. Once you mix your cannabis with anything else, it automatically stops being a joint or blunt.</p>
<h3 id="6">The Rolling Paper</h3>
<p>As noted earlier, the most significant difference between blunts and joints comes in their exterior - the rolling paper. Once you've grounded your weed, you can roll it up in either a blunt wrap or rolling paper. This is what determines if you're smoking either a blunt or joint. According to blunt enthusiasts, tobacco papers blend the sensations of tobacco with the flavor of your weed to enhance the experience and increase the buzz. Conversely, joints use rolling paper made out of wood-pulp, rice, or even hemp.</p>
<h3 id="7">Color and Size</h3>
<p>Back then, joint papers were commonly white and nearly transparent. Thankfully, cannabis culture is growing, and now people are rolling up with all types of differently colored papers. Joint papers come flavorless, allowing you to enjoy the full flavor of your weed without any hindrances. Joints are small and highly portable.</p>
<p>On the other hand, blunt papers come in a deep brown color- no enhancements, no nothing. They are much bigger (longer and thicker), allowing you to pack more in. The tobacco flavor of the rolling paper will blend with that of your weed. Sometimes you may enjoy the results, and other times you'll need to try other strains to find the perfect match.</p>
