How To Grind Weed Without A Grinder

 

Whether it’s your first time handling your own weed at home or at a party where someone's brought weed buds but no grinder, we've got you.

Here are some ways to grind your weed without a standard weed grinder.

Grind It Up with Your Hands

This is one of the most common approaches people take in the absence of a weed grinder. You can simply use your fingers to pick apart the bud.

Start by removing the stems from the flowers. This will take a lot of work because you'll want to be very detailed. The smaller your pieces are, the easier to roll them into a joint.

Make sure to wash your hands before you start, though, and avoid trying to press the buds in your hands using them as makeshift mortar and pestle; it will destroy the trichomes and affect the smoking experience significantly.

Go Old School with A Mortar and Pestle

While you shouldn’t use your hands as a mortar and pestle, you can definitely use an actual one if you have it at home. Only use well-dried weed if you use this method unless you want it to be a complete mess.

Start by separating the flower into smaller pieces. Then take a small amount of the bud—enough for one joint—and place it into the mortar bowl. Then use the pestle to evenly grind the weed by gently pressing it and frequently turning the buds.

It's important to note, though, that by using a mortar and pestle to grind the weed, you're at the risk of losing a large number of trichomes. But using this method will ensure consistency that's like kief when using a regular weed grinder.

Use the Coin and Prescription Bottle Method

This is another very popular method used by pro stoners. While it may not be as effective as far as grinding is concerned, it’s the only way to separate the kief from the flower when you don’t have a weed grinder to do the job.

All you need to do is take an empty pill bottle and place the bud into it with a coin. Then close the bottle and shake it up. The coin will ricochet back and forth and separate the bud in the process. Also, the natural static charge will separate the kief and stick it around the bottle’s walls.

Of course, don't forget to wash the pill bottle and the coin with soap before using them for weed grinding.

 

While you can try any of these methods, your life would be much easier if you buy a weed grinder online. There are plenty available at Gorilla Wholesale, including electric ones and portable mini grinders.
