Sometime after high school we swore off fractions, then cannabis rolled up like, “Hey, what’s ⅛ of an ounce?” If you’ve ever squinted at a jar wondering whether you’re holding 3.5g or the world’s fluffiest placebo, this is your survival guide.  We’ll translate the common weights and the slang (dime, dub, zip, elbow), show you what they equal in grams, and convert those numbers to pre-rolled cones so your stash and your sessions make sense. How Much Is What? (Your One-Stop Weed Measurements Guide) G or Gram (1 g)  — the baseline weed measurement The gram is your foundation in cannabis weights: small, simple, and perfect for testing a new strain or rolling a quick personal. Remember though that  visuals may lie, but scales don’t; dense buds can look tiny and still weigh true. Slice or Eighth (⅛ oz = 3.5 g) — the most common cannabis weight The people’s champ of weed measurements. Most folks buy eighths because the price-per-gram makes sense and it lasts through a week of chill sessions… unless your “week” involves Mario Kart tournaments and two roommates. Quad or Quarter (¼ oz = 7 g) — value without overstocking A quarter balances value with freshness so you’re not babysitting a jar forever. Great if you’re filling multiple pre-rolled cones for you and your buddy. Half (½ oz = 14 g) — host-mode inventory If you’re batch-filling pre-rolled cones or sharing regularly, a half ounce makes the math and the budget smile. Zip / Z or Ounce (1 oz ≈ 28 g) — the classic “stock up” size The pantry staple of weed measurements. In most legal markets, a zip is the top rung for everyday shoppers. An ounce is often the largest amount you can purchase in a single retail transaction thanks to possession limits. On the industry side, it’s a different game: licensed buyers and dispensary operators source much larger lots (think pounds; and in some supply chains, kilograms) for inventory, testing, and production. Technically an ounce is 28.3495 g, but the industry rounds off to 28 g so we all survive the math. Note: Rounding explains why some folks call a pound 448 g (16 × 28) instead of 453.6 g. This is for convenience and not a conspiracy. QP or Quarter-Pound (¼ lb ≈ 112–113 g) — bulk without warehouse vibes When you’re batch-filling pre-rolled cones or locking in price-per-gram, a QP is the “we actually planned ahead” move. It’s four ounces of flower, which means plenty of room to portion by session size and still have backup for later, as long as you store it right. Don’t Get Shorted: Weed Measurements Shopping Checklist You’ve nailed the weed measurements; now let’s make sure your cash isn’t doing CrossFit. This is the quick, skimmable system for reading labels, calculating price per gram, portioning into pre-rolled cones, and storing your stash so the weight (and burn) stays honest. Read the Label (Net Weight & Rounding) Regulated packages list net weight; flower only, not the jar. The number on a fresh, sealed package should match the label. Scale sanity check: If something seems off, weigh at home on a 0.01 g digital scale. Tare the container (zero it), then weigh the flower. Keep the packaging/receipt; good retailers will fix underweights. Ignore visuals: Dense buds look smaller than fluffy ones. Weight beats volume every time. Dollars ≠ grams: “Nick/dime/dub” are prices, not weights. Always confirm the grams. Price-Per-Gram (PPG) Calculator Use PPG to compare jars, deals, and sizes without mental gymnastics.Formula: PPG = Total Price ÷ Total GramsExample: $40 eighth (3.5 g) → 40 ÷ 3.5 = $11.43/gExample: $220 ounce (28 g) → 220 ÷ 28 = $7.86/g Pro move: Compare out-the-door prices (taxes included), not just the shelf tag. Portion Guide: Cannabis Weights in Pre-Rolled Cones Cones make cannabis weights predictable. Standardize your sessions so the only surprise is which snack you demolish afterward. Below is a visual guide on weed measurement equivalents in RAW pre rolled cones. G (1g) : ~3–4 Dogwalker Cones (0.25–0.35 g each) or 1–2 of 1¼ Size Pre rolls (0.5–0.75 g) Eighth (3.5g) : ~10–14 RAW Dogwalkers,   4–7 of 1¼ cones ,  3–4 98 Specials (~0.9–0.95 g) , or 2–3 King Size Pre rolled cones (~1–1.25 g) Quad (7g) : ~20–28 Dogwalker Cones ,  9–14 of 1¼ Pre rolled cones ;  5–7 RAW King Size Cones Half (14g) : ~40–56 Dogwalkers • 18–28 of 1¼ • 14–15 98 Specials • 11–14 King Size Tip: label by strain/effect for grab-and-go sanity Zip (28g) : ~80–112 Dogwalkers • 37–56 of 1¼ • 29–31 98 Specials • 22–28 King Size QP (112g) : ~320–448 Dogwalkers • ~150–224 of 1¼ Size Pre Rolls • ~118–124 98 Specials • ~90–112 King SizeTip: Split into smaller, labeled jars; keep cool/dark/dry; avoid placing humidity packs directly on gum lines if you’re pre-filling cones Heads-Up: Know Your Legal Possession Limits Before you start flexing your new found skills, remember the boring-but-important bit: cannabis possession limits are a thing. Check your local laws and regulations so you know the max you can legally carry or buy in one go—staying inside the lines beats explaining math to a judge. Storage for Freshness & Consistent Weight Now that you have done all that work, here are some tips to keep your carefully measured grams from turning into crispy sadness. Environment: Cool, dark, dry. Avoid heat/sunlight; skip bathrooms, kitchens, gloveboxes. Humidity: Flower likes ~55–62% RH. Don’t park humidity packs directly on a cone’s gum line. Portioning: Bought big (hello, QP)? Split into smaller opaque, airtight jars so you only open what you’ll use soon. Labeling: Note strain, pack date, cone size (e.g., “0.5 g 1¼”). Future-you will high-five present-you. Get the most from your stash: learn cannabis weights, compare by price per gram, and standardize with RAW pre-rolled cones. Fewer surprises, better sessions.

Pre rolled cones don’t “expire” in the way that food does, but they can dry out, absorb moisture, or lose gum tack, which can affect burn and seal. However, with the right conditions and storage, most cones stay great for 6–12 months, and often much longer. We discuss what factors affect the quality of your cones, how to spot those that have "gone bad", and tips on how to keep them fresh. What Are Pre Rolled Cones? Pre rolled cones are smoking papers pre-shaped into a cone with a built-in tip. These cones are used by beginners and experts alike for its convenience and consistency. To use a pre rolled cone, you just need to fill it with your ground product, gently pack, and twist to seal. RAW Cones, one of the most trusted pre rolled cone brands use unrefined plant-fiber paper with a natural acacia gum line to keep the seal and avoid runs. So, the question is, do pre rolled cones expire? Technically, cones have a shelf life (how long a product is expected to stay in good condition if stored properly) and not an expiration date (a use-by date mandated by law, after which a product may be unsafe to consume or ineffective). Because pre rolled cones are made of paper with a tip and a natural gum line there isn't anything that spoils. But, the paper and the gum may react to humidity, heat, and light once it is exposed, which can make the cones brittle, wavy, or lose its seal. Hemp and paper cones may stay in “prime” condition for 6–12 months when stored properly; beyond that, usability depends on storage (many do remain fine). What does degrade are the gum seal and paper flexibility, especially when exposed to humidity changes. Factors That Affect the Shelf Life (and Burn) of Pre Rolled Cones Relative humidity Relative humidity (RH) is how full the air is with water compared to the most it could hold at that temperature.so 50% RH means it’s holding half the moisture it could hold. It's also important to note that warm air holds more water than cool air, meaning relative humidity changes when temperature changes. This matters for pre rolled cones because the paper and gum components are both moisture-sensitive. When the air is too dry (<30% RH) the paper can become brittle or crack and the gum loses its stickiness leading the cones to unravel. On the other hand when it's too humid (>65% RH), the paper gets soft causing cones to curl or deform and the gum can pre-activate and stick in the stack. This can lead to uneven/slow burns and higher mold risk once filled. The rule of thumb: Store empty cones at 45-55% RH while filled pre-rolls should be kept at ~55–62% RH. This ensures that the paper stays strong but flexible, the gum seals cleanly, and you get an even burn when you light up. Temperature Temperature mainly changes how dry or soft the paper and gum get (by changing moisture in the air), which then changes how your cone lights and burns. As a rule, keep cones at a steady 65–75 °F in an airtight container. Avoid extremes like hot cars, radiators, and sunny windows (above ~86 °F or below ~50 °F). Light/UV: Light (especially UV) acts like slow bleach. It dries and weakens the paper and gumline, so cones get brittle, seams lift, and you’re more likely to get a hot, fast, uneven burn (canoeing). For filled pre-rolls, UV also breaks down terpenes and cannabinoids, so flavor fades, aroma flattens, and burns get lazier with more relights. To avoid this, keep cones in their box or an opaque/amber, airtight container; store in a cool, dark place (no windows, car dashboards, or shop lights). Handling & compression Rough handling and uneven compression can change airflow. When a cone is bent, dented, oily from fingers, or packed lumpy, it won’t burn evenly. Over-handling the cones can cause creases which weaken the paper and the seam, causing air leaks. Similarly, finger oils make “wet spots” that smolder and stall. Now that you know how heat, humidity, light, and rough handling mess with paper and gum it's time to learn a few easy habits to keep your pre rolled cones fresh for weeks or even months. Think of it like setting “home base” for your cones: stable temp, steady humidity, low light, and original packaging. How to Extend Shelf Life (and Keep your RAW Cones Happy) Storage playbook: Keep it cool, dark, and steady: Aim 60–70°F; avoid cars and windowsills. Control humidity: Store cones dry and separate from flower. If you keep cones with gear, use a small 58–62% RH pack nearby for overall environment—not touching gum lines. Original packaging wins: Leave stacks in their containers/box to limit air swings. Don’t store in the bathroom: Steam activates gum and fuses sheets. Remember moisture can make papers stick together permanently. You’ve set up smart storage—cool, dark, steady, and in the original packaging—but life happens: a container lives in a backpack, a box rides through a heat wave, or someone leaves it cracked open. Before you pack a batch or pass one to a friend, run this quick 60-second freshness check. How to Check If Your Cones Are Still Fresh Look: No waves, discoloration, or tip separation. Stacks shouldn’t be fused together. If sheets stuck together, moisture hit the gum and this can’t be reversed. Flex: Paper should bend without cracking. Gum test: Lightly moisten just the gum edge—does it get tacky and seal? If not, it’s likely too dry/aged. Smell: Musty = moisture exposure; when in doubt, don’t use. (Paper shouldn’t smell “off”.) When it comes to keeping your cones in top shape, doing the simple things right matters. Keep your stash dialed in and you’ll light once, burn slow and even, and taste what you actually paid for—without wasting product on cracks, runs, or relights. It also means you can buy in bulk with confidence, rotate stock calmly, and keep every session consistent. FAQs Do pre rolled cones expire or go bad? Not like food. Cones can dry out, absorb moisture, or lose gum tack, which affects sealing and burn. In good storage, they stay “prime” for 6–12 months and often longer. What’s the best way to store pre rolled cones? Keep cones cool, dark, and dry in their original packaging or an airtight, opaque container. Target ~45–55% RH for empty cones; ~55–62% RH for filled pre-rolls. Don’t place humidity packs directly on the gum line. Store cones separately from flower jars and avoid bathrooms, kitchens, cars, and other humidity/heat swings. Do RAW pre rolled cones expire, and how do I keep them fresh? RAW cones don’t have a set expiration date, but their natural acacia gum is humidity-sensitive. Store in a cool, dark spot with steady humidity.   We’re Green Blazer, proud to bring you the best in premium RAW cones and products.

If you buy flower, vapes, pre-rolls, or edibles, you’ve probably noticed two things lately: prices going up and “out of stock” tags popping up more often. That’s the ripple effect of new U.S. tariffs on the already struggling cannabis industry. The costs behind what you smoke or munch on; vape batteries and carts, specialty rolling papers and cartons, glass tubes and jars, child-resistant packaging—have climbed. Brands are paying more to bring those parts in, and retailers are passing a slice of that along at the shelf. Why the White House Raised Tariffs in 2025 The White House says the 2025 tariff overhaul is about restoring “reciprocity” in trade and defending U.S. national and economic security: it began with a universal 10% baseline duty on nearly all imports in April, then added higher surcharges for countries with large U.S. trade deficits. The aim is to “level the playing field,” push partners to lower their barriers, and reduce reliance on foreign supply chains in strategic sectors to bolster U.S. bargaining power and manufacturing. In practical terms, though, the near-term impact across many industries has been higher input costs, pricing volatility, and longer lead times; companies are trimming margins, revising quotes faster, and reworking sourcing; pressure that ultimately shows up as slightly higher retail prices and occasional stockouts for consumers. April–August 2025: Tariff Timeline April 2 & 5, 2025: The White House announced global tariffs with a 10% blanket on almost all imports. April 9: Paused most country-specific hikes; the 10% blanket stayed. May 12: 90-day U.S.–China truce: U.S. cut extra tariffs on Chinese goods to ~30%. Aug 11: Truce extended another 90 days, avoiding a return to triple-digit duties. Current headline tariff levels for countries in the cannabis product (flower, vape, pre roll, edibles) supply chain (late Aug 2025)  China: ~30% extra under the truce; truce extended Aug 11 to mid-Nov.  India: 25% announced July 30 plus an additional 25% on Aug 6 ~50% on most goods.  Indonesia: ~19% on goods under a July 15 announcement.  Spain (EU): ~15% on most EU goods under the late-August framework.  Ireland (EU): ~15% on most EU goods under the same framework.  Vietnam: 20% on many exports (with higher checks on suspected trans-shipments).  Malaysia: 19% (finalized in early August after 25% was initially floated). What are tariffs (and why you’ll be feeling it at checkout) While tariffs sound like policy-speak best left to those in government, the reality is that they show up where you most feel it – on your receipt. To put it simply, tariffs are taxes on imported parts and materials, and when they rise, the cost of everything built with those parts rises too.  For the cannabis industry this matters because so much of the non-plant-stuff is sourced globally: vape hardware, batteries, and heating elements from China, specialty rolling papers from Spain, pre rolled cones hand-finished in Indonesia, Ireland, and India, and packaging from Asia. When these parts get taxed at the ports, landed cost rises. And while brands may try to absorb some of it, the already tight margins for these already highly regulated and highly taxed cannabis products force businesses to make tough decisions.   Those added costs hit the bill of materials before your bud, pre-roll, vape, or edible ever reaches the shelf so you might pay a little more, see packaging changes, or find a favorite format out of stock. Below we breakdown how tariffs affect the supply chain and prices of the top cannabis product categories and what you, the consumer, can expect to see in your neighborhood smoke shop or go-to online store in the near future. Impact of tariffs on the top 4 cannabis product categories Flower: the bud vs. the jar While the plant is grown domestically; the jar, lid, label, and cultivation equipment (for lighting, irrigation, temperature and humidity control) aren’t. That means you’ll see small bumps in pricing as packaging and overhead inch up. Some brands may choose to make subtle packaging changes instead, using lighter tins or different jars to hold the current price. Vapes: cartridges, disposables, and batteries A big share of vape hardware is China-sourced, so it will be hit with the China rate. Expect carts to increase by 10-15% while costlier shipments cycle through. Disposables may increase even more because they’re mostly hardware or you can see smaller gram sizes. Brands are also diversifying suppliers (Malaysia or Vietnam) to control risk, but even that route has been hit with increased rates although lesser than China's. Pre Rolls: paper and packagingWith pre-rolls, pre rolled cones and packaging are hit most by the tariffs. Most cones are hand-finished in Indonesia/India, premium papers trace back to Spain, and glass or child resistant tubes and caps frequently come from China. When those inputs tick up, so does the BOM (bill of materials): a cone that once cost $0.08–$0.12 might jump to $0.10–$0.15; a glass tube that was $0.35–$0.50 can push $0.45–$0.65; labels/boxes add a few more cents. Roll that through filling labor, overhead, and margin, and retailers typically adjust in $0.25–$0.75 steps on singles  while multipacks may move 3–10%. The natural next question: why not just make everything in the US? In pre-rolls, manufacturers already do the filling and finishing domestically with US-made machines. But forming cones and making premium paper at scale is specialized and entrenched overseas. Building US mills/factories would mean years of capex, training, and higher labor, at 2 to 4 times the cone labor cost alone. What you’ll likely see at shops are more multipacks (better per-unit value), occasional packaging swaps (lighter tubes or paper over glass), and tighter promos as brands split the tariff hit rather than pass 100% through. Edibles: pouches, tins, and bottles Packaging (wrappers, tins, bottles, child-resistant caps) is globally sourced. Many brands are switching formats—for example, moving from tins to lighter containers—to hold price points steady. Expect modest nudges around 3-8% as tariffed packaging replaces old stock. 5 tips on how to keep your costs down  Go refillable (510 battery + carts). A simple 510 battery you reuse then just swap cartridges, keeps you from “rebuying” hardware every time like with disposables. 510 systems are universal, rechargeable, and easy to maintain, which helps your per-session cost trend down over time.  Choose paper-forward pre-roll packs. If you’re not planning to reuse a jar or tube, skip heavy glass. Weighty packaging costs more to ship and tends to carry a higher shelf price; lighter paper/pouch formats are usually cheaper.  Rolling your own? Buy RAW pre-rolled cones in bulk from Green Blazer—larger packs bring the per-cone cost down and keep you stocked. Watch the grams-per-dollar. When brands switch formats (example from jar to pouch), ignore the “look” and check net weight vs. price. You’re paying for what’s inside, not the container. Lighter formats often mean better value per gram.  Work the bundles & loyalty programs. Many shops use mix-and-match bundles, punch cards, or app-based points to blunt cost increases. Sign up; it’s one of the easiest ways to keep your basket total in check, and more states are even loosening rules to allow discounts and loyalty.  Stick to licensed retailers. Counterfeit carts and untested hardware and pre rolls are more common in illicit channels; licensed shops source tested products and authentic devices. Cheaper fakes can cost you more in the long run. Bottom Line: Prices may shift, but the quality shouldn't Tariffs don’t change the flower, oil, or gummies you love—they change what it costs to get containers and hardware to you. Expect small, steady adjustments rather than sticker shock: vapes feel it first (hardware-heavy), pre-rolls follow (cones + tubes), flower nudges via jars and labels, and edibles move modestly as pouches and caps roll over.  The part that shouldn’t change: what’s inside. Brands are trimming packaging, not potency or process. Formulas, strains, and batch testing should stay tight while boxes and glass get less extra. Do a 30-second quality check to keep everyone honest: COA on file (and recent) Pack/freshness date Terpene & cannabinoid info that matches what you’re promised. Remember, save on packaging and hardware, not by rolling the dice on the illicit market. Keep it clean, tested, and consistently great—because the only thing that should hit different is your playlist, not your product. FAQs Do tariffs apply to the plant itself? No. Cannabis is domestically grown; tariffs apply to imported hardware and packaging around it. Why are vape prices rising the most? Because most vape hardware is imported from China and sits under the China rate (30%). Hardware is a big slice of a cart’s cost, so tariffs move the final price. Are pre-roll cones really imported?  Yes. Industry manufacturing is heavily concentrated in Indonesia and India, with multiple large cone factories based in Indonesia. Are EU-made papers or packaging hit too? Yes. Many EU exports face ~20% tariffs under 2025 rules (with country/product nuance). That includes Spain and Ireland within the EU bloc.  Sources [1] “High just got higher: Trump tariffs to raise prices for US cannabis users” (Apr 3, 2025).  Reuters [2]  “How US import tariffs are impacting cannabis prices and products” (May 19, 2025).

How to Roll a Cone: A Beginner’s Guide to RAW Pre Rolled Cones Rolling can be intimidating for beginners, but with RAW pre rolled cones, you don’t need advanced rolling skills. Instead of wrestling with rolling papers, you just fill, pack, and twist. This guide will walk you step-by-step on how to roll a cone, how to fill it properly, and how to make sure your pre roll burns evenly every time. What Is a Pre Rolled Cone? A pre rolled cone is a ready-to-fill paper that’s shaped like a cone and already has a tip (filter) attached. Instead of rolling your own joint from scratch with smoking papers, you simply load the pre-made cone with your choice of ground flower, pack it evenly, and twist it shut. These cones can be purchased from smoke shops or for a cheaper and more convenient alternative, can be bought online. Our store, Green Blazer carries 100% authentic RAW pre rolled cones, made from unrefined, natural fibers for the cleanest burn. The Anatomy of a RAW Pre Rolled Cone Before you can master how to roll a cone, it’s essential to understand the key parts of a RAW pre rolled cone: The Tip or CrutchLet’s start with the tip, sometimes called the crutch. This little piece at the bottom isn’t just there for looks, it helps keep pieces of your ground product from falling through and makes your smoke smoother. The size of the tip also matters; a wider tip means bigger airflow and a fuller hit, while a smaller tip gives you a tighter draw.       2. The Body           Next, you’ve got the body of the cone. This is where all your ground flower goes,   and it’s what determines how your pre roll burns. If you grind too coarse, you’ll get gaps that make the cone burn unevenly. Too fine, and you risk clogging. The sweet spot is a medium grind that packs down evenly. The goal is balance: firm enough that the cone keeps its shape, but not so tight that you can’t get a smooth pull.       3. The Gumline          Finally, there’s the gumline. RAW cones use natural acacia gum to hold everything together. When you twist your cone shut, that gumline keeps the paper sealed and helps prevent runs. A good seal is what separates a clean, even burn from one that sparks and canoes. Now that you have understood these three parts, filling a cone becomes much easier and your pre roll will burn exactly the way it should. How to Roll a Cone (Step-by-Step) Here’s the easiest method to roll and fill a pre rolled cone for beginners: Grind your flower – A medium grind works best. Grinding your material too fine can lead to clogging, while grinding too chunky will cause an uneven burn. Open the cone – Hold it upright by the filter with the filter at the bottom. Fill the pre rolled cone – Spoon or funnel ground flower into the cone. (Pro tip: a RAW cone loader speeds this up and eliminates mess and waste.) Pack the cone – Use a packing stick (or chopstick) to gently tamp down the ground material every few scoops. This ensures an even burn. Leave a little space at the top – Don’t forget to leave about ¼ inch for twisting the cone shut. Twist the tip closed – Roll the extra paper at the top to seal it. Light up and enjoy – Spark the twisted end and take a slow first pull. Pro Tips for the Perfect Burn Don’t overpack → Packing too tight equals a clogged airflow. Don’t underpack → However packing too loose causes canoeing (uneven burn). Use a loader or cone filler if making multiple pre rolls at once. Store in a storage tube to keep your cone fresh until you’re ready. Common Mistakes Beginners Make ❌ Grinding too fine (leads to clogging). ❌ Forgetting to tap the cone while filling (causes air pockets). ❌ Twisting too tightly at the top (can cut off airflow). FAQs: Rolling and Filling RAW Pre Rolled Cones Q: How do you fill a RAW cone without spilling? A: Use a small spoon, card, or a cone loader. Work slowly and tamp down every few scoops. Q: How much flower fits in a pre rolled cone? A: It depends on the size of the cone. A RAW King Size cone fits ~1.5g, while a  RAW 1 ¼ cone holds ~0.75g. Q: Do RAW pre rolled cones burn evenly? A: Yes.  If the cones are packed consistently and not too tight they should burn evenly.  Q: Can I fill cones by hand without a loader? A: Absolutely. It just takes patience and a steady hand. For speed and consistency, use a cone filling tool. Why Use RAW Pre Rolled Cones? Saves time and effort. Perfect for beginners who don’t know how to roll a cone.

New York’s cannabis market hit $1B in 2024 and is set to reach $2.8B by 2025, with pre-rolls leading growth in this fast-expanding industry.

The Golden State’s green rush hit a speed bump, but pre-rolls keep lighting up the charts. Price drops, big toys, and fewer mom-and-pop growers.

When it comes to crafting the perfect herbal smoking experience, there’s one trend that stands out among enthusiasts—pre-rolled cones. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or just starting to explore the versatility of herbal blends, pre-rolled cones simplify the process while offering an unmatched level of convenience and consistency. But did you know the type of pre-rolled cone you use can significantly impact how your favorite blends burn and taste?  At Green Blazer, we believe in tailoring every smoking experience to your unique preferences. That means choosing the right pre-rolled cone for your specific herbal blend is essential—and we’re here to guide you through it.  Choosing the Right Cone for Your Herbal Blends  Not all pre-rolled cones are created equal, and the type of cone you choose can make or break your herbal experience. Different blends burn at different rates, and their flavor profiles can be enhanced or muted depending on your cone choice.  For those seeking an unaltered, pure flavor, we recommend using RAW Organic Hemp Cones. These cones are made from pure, natural hemp and are unbleached, ensuring zero added chemicals interfere with your blend’s unique profile. They’re ideal for those who want their herbs to stand out without the distraction of harsh additives.  For aromatic or flavored blends, RAW Black Cones offer a slow, refined burn that allows you to savor each nuance. Whether you’re experimenting with lavender, mint, or classic smokable herbs, the sleek, thin design of RAW Black enhances your blends without overpowering the experience.  Ensuring Consistency in Every Session  One major benefit of using pre-rolled cones is the incredible level of consistency they provide. Rolling by hand can be fun, but it’s easy to end up with uneven burns or mispacked cones that negatively affect your session. Pre-rolled cones eliminate the guesswork—every cone is evenly packed and shaped for a smooth, even burn from start to finish.  For those who prefer a finer grind or delicate herbs, pre-rolled cones from RAW cones are a top recommendation. Their precision-crafted design ensures that herbs stay in place, without clogs or uneven airflow. This ensures every puff is as smooth as the first, delivering a premium experience every time.  Elevating the Experience with Tasting Notes  One often-overlooked aspect of smoking herbal blends is the ability to properly appreciate the flavors and aromas in each puff. Pre-rolled cones, particularly high-quality options like those from RAW, help bring out the tasting notes in your blends.  Imagine pairing a relaxing herbal blend with the slightly earthy yet neutral profile of a classic RAW cone. The meticulously designed cones allow your herbs to burn at the perfect pace, revealing subtle flavor layers you might otherwise miss. With tasting notes included in each shipment through services like Green Blazer, you can begin to identify the unique characteristics of different blends and elevate your smoking ritual into a sensory experience.  Why Pre-Rolled Cones Are a Must-Have  Pre-rolled cones offer so much more than convenience—they unlock a world of precision, taste, and customization that hand-rolling often lacks. Whether you’re rolling with lavender-infused blends, traditional cannabis, or experimenting with fresh herbal combinations, cones like the ones from RAW are designed to amplify your experience.  At Green Blazer, we’re proud to stock a variety of high-quality pre-rolled cones to suit every type of herbal enthusiast. Whether you love the earthy richness of hemp-based cones or the sleek refinement of ultra-thin RAW Black cones, we’ve got you covered.  Frequently Asked Questions About RAW Cones What are RAW cones made from?  RAW cones are crafted using natural, unrefined materials like hemp or plant fibers. RAW's Organic Hemp Cones, for example, are made from pure hemp and are unbleached, avoiding the use of harmful chemicals to guarantee a cleaner, smoother smoking experience.  How do I choose the right cone size for my herbal blend?  RAW cones come in a variety of sizes, including 1 1/4, King Size, and RAW Classic Lean, to suit different preferences. Smaller blends usually do well with 1 1/4 cones, while larger sessions or group settings are often ideal for King Size.

When it comes to pre-rolled cones, two brands stand out in the market: Zig Zag and RAW. Both have built solid reputations for delivering high-quality, reliable smoking products, but which one is the best for you? Let’s take a closer look at what each brand offers, and the differences between their cones, and help you decide which is the right choice for your smoking experience. What Are Pre-Rolled Cones? Pre-rolled cones are a convenient alternative to rolling your own joints. These cones are already shaped and ready to be packed with your preferred cannabis. This eliminates the need for rolling papers, a grinder, or any special skills, making them the perfect solution for users who want an easy, quick, and consistent smoking experience. The Zig Zag Cones Experience Zig Zag is one of the most iconic brands in the world of rolling papers, and their pre-rolled cones are no different. Known for their long history in the smoking industry, Zig Zag Cones are made from high-quality paper that burns consistently and evenly. Their cones come in a variety of sizes and are often favored for their easy-to-use design and affordability. Material & Composition: Zig Zag cones are typically made from standard paper, offering a neutral taste that doesn't overpower the flavor of your cannabis. Flavors & Variations: Zig Zag offers a range of flavored cones, including popular options like cherry, grape, and vanilla. Price & Performance: Zig Zag cones are generally more affordable compared to other premium cones, providing a solid smoking experience without the premium price tag. The RAW Cones Experience RAW has made a name for itself by focusing on natural, unrefined materials. Their pre-rolled cones are made from natural hemp paper that is unbleached and free from chlorine, ensuring a smoother, more natural smoking experience. Material & Composition: RAW cones are made from unrefined hemp, which gives them a more earthy, natural flavor. They burn slower than traditional paper cones, which some users prefer for a longer-lasting experience. Flavors & Variations: Unlike Zig Zag, RAW focuses on natural hemp cones, but they offer a variety of sizes, including Organic and Classic options. Price & Performance: RAW cones are typically priced higher than Zig Zag, but the quality of the material, the smoother burn, and the ethical production process justify the cost for many users. Zig Zag vs RAW Cones: Head-to-Head Comparison When it comes to choosing between Zig Zag and RAW, there are a few key factors to consider: Material Quality: RAW takes the lead with its unbleached, natural hemp paper, which burns slower and smoother than the traditional paper used by Zig Zag. Burn Rate & Consistency: RAW cones are known for their slow and even burn, which some users find preferable for a longer smoking session. Zig Zag cones, while effective, burn quicker and can sometimes be inconsistent. Taste: If you’re looking for a neutral taste that lets your cannabis shine, Zig Zag cones might be your best bet. RAW, however, offers a more earthy, natural taste that some enthusiasts prefer for a purer smoking experience. Price: Zig Zag cones are more budget-friendly, making them a solid choice for those who prioritize cost over luxury. RAW, while pricier, provides a premium experience with its organic hemp construction. Which Cone is Right for You? The decision ultimately depends on your preferences: Zig Zag Cones: Ideal for those who want a reliable, affordable, and easy-to-use pre-rolled cone. If you’re looking for variety in flavor and a faster, more casual smoking session, Zig Zag is the way to go. RAW Cones: Perfect for users who value natural, eco-friendly products and a slower, more consistent burn. If you appreciate the purity of unrefined hemp and are willing to invest a little more for a superior experience, RAW is your choice. Conclusion: Finding Your Perfect Cone Both Zig Zag and RAW offer their unique advantages, and choosing the right one really comes down to your personal preferences. Whether you're drawn to the affordability and variety of Zig Zag or the natural, slow-burning experience of RAW, there’s no wrong choice.

In this comparison, we’ll break down the key features of both Blazy Susan and RAW cones, so you can make an informed decision the next time you’re reaching for a pre-rolled cone. Blazy Susan Cones: Fun, Funky, and Flavorful Blazy Susan has carved a niche in the pre-roll industry with its colorful, high-quality cones. Known for their signature pink rice paper, Blazy Susan brings a playful and unique twist to the world of pre-rolled cones. But there’s more to them than just eye-catching packaging. Material & Composition: Blazy Susan cones are made from rice paper, offering a smooth, clean burn.

Additionally, the pink color comes from non-toxic, soy-based ink, making these cones a more eco-friendly option. Flavors & Variations: While Blazy Susan is known for its striking pink cones, the brand offers a variety of sizes to suit your needs. Whether you're looking for king-size cones, regular cones, or mini cones, Blazy Susan has you covered.

The rice paper ensures a slower burn, which means you can enjoy your session without constantly re-lighting. Price Point: Blazy Susan cones are often slightly more affordable than some premium brands. They are an excellent choice for those looking for quality without the hefty price tag. RAW Cones: The Natural Choice for Purists RAW is a brand that needs little introduction. Known for its commitment to unrefined, all-natural materials, RAW pre-rolled cones have become a favorite among cannabis connoisseurs who prefer an organic, smooth smoking experience. Material & Composition: RAW cones are made from natural, unrefined hemp, which gives them a distinctive earthy flavor and a slower, smoother burn. Unlike Blazy Susan’s rice paper, RAW’s hemp paper is free from chemicals, chlorine, and bleach, making them an ideal choice for those who want a purer smoking experience. Flavors & Variations: RAW offers a wide array of cones, from classic hemp to organic hemp, each designed to provide a clean and natural burn. The brand’s classic cones are a go-to for those seeking the simplicity of unrefined materials. Burn Quality: RAW cones are known for their even, slow-burning nature. These cones tend to burn at a consistent rate, allowing you to fully savor the flavor of your cannabis. The natural hemp paper also contributes to a smooth, neutral taste that doesn’t overpower your buds. Price Point: RAW cones are typically a bit more expensive than Blazy Susan, but many users feel the premium price is justified by the quality and natural ingredients. Blazy Susan vs RAW Cones: Key Differences Material: Blazy Susan uses rice paper, which burns slower and provides a smooth experience, while RAW uses natural hemp paper, which is unrefined and eco-friendly. Burn Consistency: Both brands burn evenly, but RAW cones tend to have a slightly slower burn, which some smokers prefer for a longer-lasting session. Aesthetic: If you love vibrant, fun colors, Blazy Susan’s signature pink cones are sure to stand out. RAW’s natural, earthy look appeals to those who prefer a more minimalist, authentic feel. Price: Blazy Susan tends to be more affordable, while RAW offers premium quality at a higher price. Which Cone is Right for You? Choosing between Blazy Susan and RAW really comes down to personal preference. If you value eco-friendly materials, a smoother burn, and a more natural flavor, RAW cones are an excellent choice. However, if you’re looking for a fun, visually striking cone with a slow burn and excellent affordability, Blazy Susan is a strong contender.

Rolling papers are used to smoke both tobacco and cannabis. Tobacco is usually smoked in the form of a cigarette and cannabis may be called a joint, blunt, or a variety of other names. What are rolling papers made of? There are a variety of materials and all have their advantages and disadvantages. Here are the common materials for rolling papers so that you can choose what you like.  Rice  Rice paper is a common material for rolling. It was one of the first types of rolling papers ever made, popular for its light weight and slow even burning. Another advantage of rice paper is its lack of flavor, allowing the taste of the cannabis to come through. Rice rolling papers are known as one of the healthiest options as well.  Hemp Hemp rolling papers are some of the most natural, purest forms. Made from the same plant that is being smoked, hemp prevents contamination from other additives or toxins that may be contained in other rolling papers. It is also known for being easy to roll and offers a slow, even burn.  Flax  Flax is thin like rice paper and extremely pure. It is considered to be easy to roll. The biggest advantage of flax rolling papers is that they create less smoke when they burn for a healthier, less toxic smoking experience that maximizes flavor.  Wood Pulp Rolling papers made of wood pulp were a popular choice in the early days, but have fallen out of favor with many smokers because they burn too quickly and have the largest negative impact on the environment. Wood pulp papers are often bleached to look lighter, which results in harsh chemicals that can mask the flavor of the cannabis.  Clear  Clear rolling papers are made of biodegradable cellophane. They look great as the cannabis shows through. However, they contain glycerine which releases a known carcinogen called Acrolein when burned, so they are best avoided.  What is the Best Material for Rolling Papers?  There is not necessarily one type of material that is best. Consider the pros and cons of each type to decide which you would prefer to use. Hemp probably has the greatest number of pros and the least amount of cons. It is easy to roll, all natural, and won’t interfere with flavor. Rice and hemp are the most common types sold, which makes them the most affordable options due to abundant supply.  Benefits of Pre Rolled Cones  Rolling your own joints may seem like a good option, but there are some definite advantages to purchasing raw pre rolled cones. You can skip buying papers and learning how to roll by hand or with a machine. Pre rolled hemp cones from Green Blazer come in a variety of sizes, types, and flavors for a customized smoking experience. Our products are made with an eco-friendly process and are 100% GMO-free.

Let’s take a walk down memory lane, shall we? Once upon a time, in a galaxy where smoking enthusiasts wore their rolling skills as a badge of honor, Raw Papers were the ultimate tool of the trade. But, much like the reign of low-rise jeans, things have changed. In the ever-evolving world of DIY rolling, where consumers are perpetually looking for shortcuts without sacrificing quality, enter pre rolled cones. And no, they haven’t just entered. They’ve strutted in, making a statement that’s impossible to ignore. Remember the times when you were trying to perfect that roll, only to end up with a pathetic, uneven stick that barely does justice to your herb? Pre rolled cones have effectively shoved those memories into oblivion. Now, before the purists raise their eyebrows and start on their monologues about the ‘authenticity’ and the ‘ritualistic experience’ of rolling, let me intervene with my typically dry wit: Not everyone has the time or the dexterity of a sushi chef. For the average Joe and Jane, pre rolled cones offer a convenience that’s just... impeccable. It’s like having your cake and eating it too, but in this case, you’re packing your herb and smoking it smoothly. And who do we have to thank for this effortless smoking revolution? The pioneers, the mavericks, the torchbearers of quality - RAW. With their array of RAW cone sizes tailored for every kind of smoker, from the dainty puffer to the cloud chaser, RAW cones have effectively conquered the pre rolled cones industry. Talk about a corporate takeover, but in the best way possible. For those unacquainted with the nuances of these cones, let's dive a tad deeper. Among the array of raw cone sizes, the King Size Cone stands tall and proud. Holding a hearty 1.5g of herb and stretching a solid 109mm with a 26mm tip, it's the Cadillac of cones. And for those with a discerning taste, who insist on only the best of the best, there’s a treat waiting - RAW Blacks, the very essence of elegance, and the thinnest paper ever produced for rolling. It’s like the fine wine of the smoking world. Now, don’t get me wrong. I have a soft corner for the old-school charm of Raw Rolling Papers. There’s an art, a dance almost, in rolling the perfect herbal cigarette. But let’s be realistic. Not everyone is Picasso. And for the vast majority who can’t draw (or roll) to save their lives, pre rolled cones are the saving grace. So, the question beckons, have RAW cones officially dethroned Raw Rolling Papers? Well, it’s not so much a dethroning as it is passing the torch. And with RAW reigning supreme in both arenas, it's clear who’s wearing the crown in the herbal kingdom. In a world that’s constantly racing against time, efficiency is the name of the game. And when efficiency meets quality, well, that’s a match made in heaven. So, whether you're a rookie, a veteran, or someone who simply can’t be bothered with the fuss of rolling, give a nod of gratitude to RAW Cones every time you light up. They’ve made the ritual of smoking a whole lot easier, classier, and more accessible. And for that, here’s a slow, appreciative drag in their honor. Cheers!

By eliminating that extraneous inner flap, they've created a cone that not only ensures a smoother burn but also allows commercial machines to operate at their peak efficiency. This translates to more optimal runs and a significantly lower fail rate when producing prerolls in bulk. If you're looking for size specifics, the raw cones king size are a thing of beauty.
