Pre-Roll Cones?

Post by lctricity »

Does anyone know where in Amsterdam a person could get extra large pre-roll cones that would hold 5+ grams of weed & hash?

Lookin' to bring a few of these to the various smoke outs that are happening next week.

Any info would be appreciated!

Most pre rolled in coffeeshops are made from them.

Have to say DC that one you did me was just about as uniform as I've seen in a prerolled...... do you guys do yours by hand?

Nah, machine most times...Make the mix, put the cones in, fill the cones...press and twist. Out pop up to 80 joints. I believe it has 20 large cone holes too. Handy!. :lol: . But anybody that needs it rolled there and then, we do ourselves....couldn't begin to count the joints I've rolled in the last 3 years. :roll: :shock:

i love the pre-rolled cones......i can roll by hand amazing well (IMHO :D ) but those cones are just tooooo easy not to use.....the only problem i have is the cost starts to add up.

You can pick them up in the little supermarkets round Warmoestraat. We got a couple of jumbo ones on the last day and filled them with all the leftovers.
You missed it right?

Mellow Yellow sells XL joints with 5 grams of weed in them. Unfortunately, it is mixed with tobacco. :( It could probably hold 10 grams+ of just pure weed.

i was planning to bring some cyclones and other pre rolled cones..maybe torpedos..along with plenty of packs of swishers. I dont want to take the risk of getting there and not finding any fresh swishers.

Prerolled cones… Hmm… There is more than one point to these. As DC mentioned they are more often than not the basis of prerolled joints. As he testifies they are in CS’ (I wouldn’t know as we always roll our own, no need to buy them prerolled when U can roll’em up just how U like ‘em, and that may be in many a way prerolled’s are not) and as they more or less always were in Christiania in Copenhagen, which sold a shit load of prerolled joints along with the very large assortment of hash and more limited selection of green. A friend of mine from “back in the day” (not like twitch would say back in the day, but still some ways back in my book) actually worked in what was known as “the factory”, a joint rolling “business” located on top of a somewhat famous/infamous concert hall where mayor bands would play, and still to some degree are playing, in what is not even a “legal business”. They started of by filling the cones by hand and then moved to the “machines” (in this case not much more than an array of funnels), which cut the work load to about a tenth thus increasing the time they had to enjoy their “payment” (a stoners dream=all the cannabis U could smoke or eat as long as U could fill a joint….)

Prerolled cones are excellent for rolling hash joints as the “mix”, as we call it up here in Denmark, of baccy and hash is typically a lot easier than pure green and, especially, a weed and baccy mix using cigarette rolling tobacco such as “Drum” (our brand in the dam. Although we smoked almost pure, if not pure the most of the trip and use cigarettes that have been “toasted” for the hash joints, so not to get the nasty nicotine rush and only the nice friendly buzz of the solid…). It is also possible, but not as easy and thus it looses some of the appeal, to roll em with the green, but it is then advisable to grind up the weed pretty finely so that it is easier to “scoop up”. Again, for rolling weed, or actually pretty much anything accept when we felt like a cone-splif, a filtertip and a nice high quality skin is the absolute best (no no and NO, none o’ those dang chlorine-and-other-nastystuff-filled Red Rizlas and whatever else those skins are called that are only suited for writing a novel on for us! I do not know what the hell is up w people who would wish their weed or hash to be contaminated with all that crap, let alone the taste, bloody horrific that is, they should be ashamed!) :)

Treat your green and solids with tender care, remember what they will do for you. It is somewhat of an exchange of pleasantries; U are nice to it and it will make U fell nice… ;)


BTW: They were in all headshops we went, and Baba and a lot of others had partysized and the other big ones, which are more than enough unless U are having one helluva party... Price: not as bad as this thread would make it IMO, buy the 10/12 cardboard-pack, they are easier to keep w/o fucking 'em up and they are cheaper than the "plasticdisplaykindathingies"...

funny seeing my name come up in a post. chuckle, chuckle :roll: We don't, as a rule, roll cones here, but some headshops carry them. I prefer to roll my own when not using Fat Freddy, can make any size I want then, (like em fat). Now back in the day.........we had to use toilet paper, really hard to roll and keep from catching fire, but you did what you had to. :roll: :roll: :wink:
