Doobie
A joint is a rolled cannabis cigarette. Unlike commercial tobacco cigarettes, the user ordinarily hand-rolls joints with rolling papers, though in some cases they are machine-rolled. Rolling papers are the most common rolling medium in industrialized countries; however, brown paper, cigarettes or beedies with the tobacco removed, receipts and paper napkin can also be used, particularly in developing countries. Modern papers are manufactured in a range of sizes from a wide variety of materials including rice, hemp, and flax, and are also available in liquorice and other flavored varieties.
Joint size can vary, typically containing between 0.25 and 1 g (1⁄112 and 1⁄28 oz) net weight of cannabis, but can sometimes far exceed this. Tobacco is sometimes used in the rolling process. Like smoking tobacco, smoking cannabis has been shown to be harmful to the health of the smoker, and may also be harmful to others through passive smoking.
Although joints by definition contain cannabis, regional differences exist.
Special vaporizers, made to look like joints, have also been designed for use with cannabis extract.
