No, it probably was packed too densely, if it was not packed densely enough then it would burn way too fast, and it would totally canoe to shit, and then you would punch your joint in the mouth for bitching at you when you gave it birth..

Try using a bit of a lighter touch when you roll, might make it hit better. There has to be room for air to feed the flame when you suck in..just don't put too much room. It's all about finding the right balance between tight and loose.

make sure the bud you are using isnt damp then just make sure you cut or grind it up really good. If that doesnt work try rolling it with less herb.

ok thanks alot, i was tryign to role again today and i dropped it on my bathroom floor that realy sucked. i'm so pissed at myself because i can't role good. i thought i would try the dollar bill method because its supposed to be easier than freehand but i just can't role joints i need one of those rollers that does it for you.

i've wathced vids and read tuts but i just can't do it, so i'm going to post pics and vids of myself step by step in hopes that the fine gentelmen and ladies of these boards will tell me what the fuck i am doing completly wrong. i don't have much weed at all right now and idk if i even have enough to roll a single joint, i did but then i dropped it while trying to roll and it went all over my bathroom floor. so here is a pic i want to know if my initial setup is fine i'm sure i need more weed. thanks.

i suggest you buy a pipe then, i can't imagine what a pain in the ass trying to learn by yourself is

but here is something else you can learn on line - when the weed in it is to loose or bumpy like you said close one end grap the other end like your pinching it and shake it like people who are packing a can of dip do and all the weed will go to the bottom packed tight

sorry thats the best way i can explain how to do it with out showing you
