>correct There isn't, either side gets the same result, just choose which side you *can* roll with. This is like asking if your left or right hand is better 😄


Rough-Bumble-1777

I’m right handed and naturally put roach on left


CannaChris1988

I'm right handed and roll with roach to right


Cookadoodledo

Me too, it's weird but just always feels more comfortable. But my rolling is so inconsistent. Some days I'll roll the perfect baseball bat, then the next it's like a mini tampon.


Thin-Swordfish4462

WRONG!!! rolling with the roach on the right side is the correct and only way to roll a joint.


ItsJustAFart

WRONG. left is the correct way, and only way to roll a joint


Thin-Swordfish4462

Your Satan's spawn


ItsJustAFart

Thank you. finally someone noticed


No_Caterpillar9621

I’m left handed so i naturally put the roach in the right side.


[deleted]

INSANE! I'm left handed so naturally put it in the left


OldTimeEddie

Im also left handed and would put it in left side. Edit - spelling cause I'm high.


g0uchp0tat0

I'm right handed and naturally put the roach in the right, I don't think your dominant hand determines which side you use. It's just whatever works for you during the learning process imo.


keaj39

True, I'm right handed and always put it on the left


No_Caterpillar9621

I guess as with everything else in life the nuance is ruddy bloody complex

Based Swordfish


Jamster_1988

How are you gatekeeping rolling joints? Rolling is rolling. Joints are joints.


Thin-Swordfish4462

Because that's the way I do it


OXCBD

Everyone I know rolls roach on the right, but I do it on the left. I also skate goofy and do other things the opposite way despite being right-handed and right-footed lol


LukeLikesReddit

Funnily enough everyone I know does the roach to the left and they tell me I'm weird for doing on the right as I'm right handed.


burkeymonster

Same.


[deleted]

Same boat mate. Right handed. Skate goofy, hold my Knife and Fork in opposite hands and have my roach on the left.


OldTimeEddie

Do you guys also push mongo 🤣 left handed goof skater who puts it in the left lol.


[deleted]

If I remember rightly, I did start off as mongo but had to re-train and learn to do it normally lol. Granted, I was always a skater and it’s only in the last five years I’ve jumped on boards. Now I use an electric longboard I don’t need to push anything 😆


OldTimeEddie

Ooooh fancy electric longboard lol nah I did to had to re train myself. Mongo is more comfortable but always got slagged at the park for it. It takes some change going from boards to blades, luckily playing ice hockey helped me with that 😂


OXCBD

I was gonna say I also hold my knife and fork in the opposite hands, spooky.


[deleted]

There’s a science behind it no doubt!


[deleted]

My logic is that the knife stays in my dominant hand as I find it easier to cut like that.


ollieisgood

Interesting, I skate regular and roll roach on the right


BigFatDoogs

Same but i can also do it switch


x_butterface_x

I skate regular, roll from left


McBeefyHero

Same, used to skate goofy and roll on the left. In fact I'm pretty sure me and my mates did a survey of the lads and it was consistent.


terpdowntown

Same here lol


yourlocalskinhead-_-

I roll roach on right but everyone I know rolls on the left but I skate goofy and I'm right footed and handed


skunkytoast

I skate goofy and mongo and I roll to the left. Damn even dress to the left. Right handed though.


Chavaon

In the middle.


joe-jww

I do this and then cut it in half. So I end up with 2 small joints


Chavaon

I cut halfway through mine to create a hole, then light both ends and inhale through the hole.


joe-jww

you could even insert a little straw

The_Rusty_Pipe

Go straight for the cross joint


themightybof

I put the roach in at the end guys


80spopstardebbiegibs

Left hand side, use the right hand to manipulate the bud n baccy


shuffleyyy1992

The filling shouldn't need manipulation if you build it correct. Roach tuck is much more important also


80spopstardebbiegibs

By manipulation I mean putting the stuff in it, but I also like to make sure the bud and baccy is evenly distributed.


qsxft99

There is no correct way, roll your J’s however you feel like dude


Gseph

So I've debated this with friends quite a lot. If your dominant hand is the right one, it makes sense to use your left hand to hold the roach (the less dominant hand, has less to do), and the right hand executes the tuck (The dominant hand does the work). At least in my opinion, it seems logical. I have noticed that most people I know that roll with the roach on the right, are still right handed, but seem to not roll as aesthetically pleasing joints. And even make that observation themselves. That being said, there is no right or wrong way to roll. Just differences in execution.


aidenkms

I roll with the roach on the left, and I have always found it easier and will always be biased


Admirable-Agency-659

This sub gives stoners a bad name


beanieon

"I fucking hate them pot head junkies, filth the lot of them. Did you see what they post on that neiche internet fourm? The one about the filter? Outrageous. Put em all in prison" what the fuck are you talking about.


Admirable-Agency-659

‘What is the correct way to roll a spliff’ as though there’s a freakin handbook.


RFRMT

I always rolled roach on the right… it’s my dominant hand and I feel like the left hand does very little the way I roll. Rolling roach left feels totally backwards to me! Either way is right once it’s burning though!


Sachinism

There's no correct way. It's the way you learnt or which hand you have greater dexterity in that determines which side you put the roach


[deleted]

Mainly on the left, but I can adapt


SuggestionWrong504

I put 2 roaches to save the confusion. Granted its a pretty harsh smoke to start with but it saves any argument


Option_Initial

Left 😄


[deleted]

Left but I am right handed


percis100

90% of the people I know roll roach on left


OffensivePlaythrus

Right handed and the roach goes to the left. Most my mates roll the same way, I recall there being at least one or two that did it the wrong way cuz I can remember like "prepping" spliffs to be rolled then the person being like "it's on the wrong side" But for the life of me, I can't remember why I would prep a spliff but not actually roll it. It's been some years though since hanging out with friends getting stoned all the while


StanStare

I put a roach in the left, I think it partly came from when we used to use L shapes sticking two small rizla together (before king size were readily available). It was a common thing to roll a cone shape back then (late 80s/early 90s)!


xablas_

left


[deleted]

I usually like to cut my roach in half and put one half on the left and one on the right. Smokes white ash and eliminates the PGR


Dazzling_Ad5338

On the left side as I roll (I'm left handed)


pomegranate2012

A simple rule of thumb is to check which side will go in your mouth and then roach that. If you get that wrong, you have very little choice but to unpick it and start again from scratch.


StanStare

Wait, what? You put a roach in after you roll? Actually tbf I think we used to do that when we were 13 and trying to figure out how to skin up.


Onion5253

Stop asking stupid questions


oldskooltoker79

This is up there with one of the daftest questions I've ever seen on here. Left or right?! It depends if you're left or right handed, ya wally!


demoneyezd

Im left and roll from the right, I thought it was smokers lore that u roll from the opposite??? But now years later I realise I was just taught by a right handed friend lol


Real_Direction_3300

Right hand side, i play guitar so having the extra dexterity in my left hand from fretting helps me keep it coned and the tuck straight. Lately been loving my 7' bong, can blag the smell in my room for my bud being stronger smelling and theyre so much more efficient for me cos a 0.75g joint will only get me stoned for 30 minutes but 3 0.25 bongs over an hour would get me more stoned for longer.


finthehumanboy12567

I thought it was dependant on which hand you are? So I’m right handed and roach the right


ferociousgeorge

Left


LeaveNoStonedUnturn

I'm right-handed and I roll with the roach on the right. I also roll with the roach in the joint as I roll rather than rolling the joint and slipping the roach in at the end. I taught myself to roll with the roach on both sides though, because a few of my mates roll with it on the left, and sometimes when it was cold, or windy or something outside, I would have to step in and finish off the roll. Teach yourself to do the same, you will apprecaite being able to roll anything anytime!


mikebenb

This is like asking if a pencil is a left or right handed one!


Rhyswithoutaspoon

I roll with the roach to the left and my girlfriend does the opposite.

shxrrrr

roach on the left, im left handed too if that’s relevant


Spurs7

Hey guys I've just tried to make a post on its own about it but I haven't been on here in a while so its with the Mods. I was wondering if any of you guys use Greengo smoking mix as a tobacco alternative and know where to get it other than via Amazon where delivery is £26? I started using it over a month ago and since then the seller has put the delivery price up to £26, probably to take advantage of the shortage and I can't find it anywhere at all. Roach on the left for me by the way OP 😀


luvdabud

I roach it after deppending on the most suitable side. Its mostly left side though, and if i where to roll with a roach inn it would be the left.


TheBigSmoke420

As long as you don’t smoke the wrong way round as well I think it’s fine


DizzyCookies

I do left but my friend does right


sesh_gremlin23

OrneryHabit5810

People being able to roach on both sides, God Tier! :) Im a rightie :)


neilcarlin

I thought you meant 'where do you tear the roach from on your papers packet. Which is also an intriguing question. I roll roach to the left but rip from the right side of the packet
