Some people shy away from smoking flower simply because they don’t know how to roll a joint or blunt and can’t store utensils in their house. RiverBluff Collective is here to tell you there is no need to be shy. Rolling a joint or blunt may be an art form but it is a dying one like cursive writing. Saying you can’t smoke a joint because you can’t roll one is like saying you can’t type a letter because you don’t know how to put paper in a typewriter. We have computers now! Civilization has advanced beyond that stage. New methods exist to make your life easier. Unless you are an artisan smoker, there is no need to know how to roll anymore. So, kick back in the cut, fire on up, and let’s learn about getting some pre-rolled weed stuff.
Buy One
This one seems like cheating. RiverBluff Collective knows they aren’t teaching you anything new here. This is just a reminder. You don’t need to know how to roll if you just buy a pre-roll. You can try flower with little to no time or effort exerted. Just pop into your local dispensary, pick out a joint, and you’re on your way.
Pre-rolled Cones
This is the main reason you don’t need to know how to roll anymore. The joint comes pre-rolled with a filter. All that is required is it to be filled. Each cone comes with a ramrod to help make sure a tightly packed joint. Once you have it packet like a musket in the 1700’s, you only need to twist the top closed and spark it up! You can find cones by many great companies like Raw,Element,Zig Zag, and Blazy Susan.
Hollow Blunts
More of a blunt smoker than a joint smoker? Well, it wasn’t long after the introduction of the pre-rolled cone that the hollow blunt made its way onto shelves. These work the same way as a pre-rolled cone except they are a straight cylinder and generally larger. You won’t be packing a musket this time but more of a blunderbuss. No need to twist the top with these ones just fill it and rip. Many companies make hollow blunts but a RiverBluff Collective favorite has always been King Palm!
Rolling Machines
This is the least convenient way to get a pre-roll but it is an option. Most of the companies mentioned thus far make rollers that range in sizes. Pick your machine, pick your wraps, pick your strain, read the instructions, and off you go. You’ll be smoking in no time and will have rolled a joint without having to know how to.
Burn One Down
As you can see, there is no need to know how to roll in this day and age. Companies have invested a lot of time into making sure you can enjoy a pre-roll with little to no experience. Don’t be shy about trying flower just because you can’t roll, we are beyond that now! The cannabis revolution is here and there shall be pre-rolls for all of those of legal consumption age.

For years, when people thought of edibles they thought of pot brownies. It was a difficult task, but RiverBluff Collective saw an industry need and filled it exceptionally while they could. Yet, all things come to an end and due to state-by-state legal changes the RiverBluff Brownie went extinct. Our longtime customers still recall them fondly, with hush tones as though saying it three times will make them reappear. With Iowa now joining the war on hemp-derived THC, RiverBluff must again reassess its footing to bring you the best possible products. But first, the tale of the RiverBluff brownies’ untimely extinction must be told. Kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about the legalities that apply to weed stuff.
The Era of the RiverBluff Brownie
RiverBluff wanted to embrace the nostalgia of cannabis brownies with its hemp-derived THC brownies and people unanimously rejoiced! High dosed mini brownie bites offered in both Delta 9 and Delta 8 THC; the classic confectionary delight became so popular that they were hard to keep in stock. Times were good and the brownies were glorious. Then one day, the government realized they had accidentally made weed legal nationwide, and some states started to restrict what products defined as hemp-derived could be offered in their states. Many of the states doing so bordered adult use recreational cannabis states and they would be the first to impact the hemp-derived THC market.
A Series of Extinction Events
The main action many of these states took was to reduce the mg dosage per piece and/or package. Brownies were already difficult as they carry a short shelf-life and RiverBluff’s brownie bites were high octane. Without the ability to sell and ship them to other states, the batch sizes that needed to be made weren’t selling fast enough instore. The beautiful chocolatey goodness began to go dry on shelves. Even though customers raved about them, RiverBluff had no choice but to cease their production and add in no products to fill the void.
RiverBluff Will Continue to Thrive
Iowa wasn’t the first state to throw down the gauntlet and they won’t be last. RiverBluff Collective has never shied away from a challenge, and they are not going to start now! RiverBluff is dedicated to bringing you the best hemp-derived THC products on the market and will adapt accordingly as the market changes. The brownies may have been the first but sadly they more than likely won’t be the last. If your favorite product vanishes from the shelves, there is something you can do! Vote! Election season is right around the corner! Seek out cannabis and hemp friendly candidates and help put them in office to prevent further government intervention.

RiverBluff Collective hates to see people stuck casting cannaconsumers in the same old stereotypes. Those who consume cannabis aren’t by default dumb, lazy, unmotivated, or unfit. Some of the most successful people ever have smoked weed, eaten THC-infused edibles, or enjoyed other THC products, and they managed to overcome those stereotypes to leave a lasting mark on history. This list could be filled will artists and musicians but those would have been easily guessed and that’s not the name of the article. So kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn about people you’d never guess were into weed stuff!
Barack Obama
Okay, so you may have guessed this one, but it is still fascinating. The most recent entry on the list, Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States of America, became the first presidential candidate to openly admit to having smoked cannabis. He didn’t dodge the question like Bill Clinton did. Clinton claimed he never inhaled; Obama said “Yes I inhaled that was kind of the point.”
Steve Jobs may be the most driven person to ever live. The former head of Apple took the personal computer out of the office and placed them in people’s homes. Without him, there is a decent chance smart phones wouldn’t be as advanced as they are now. Jobs wasn’t just a fan of cannabis – he also enjoyed LSD. Though he claimed to leave his cannabis consumption in the 70s, he left the world with unbelievable stories. Like the time he and Wozniak tried to get the Pope on the phone just for fun. If Steve were still around, he’d probably pop by the shop for a Apple Tart preroll.
Carl Sagan
Carl Sagan is on the short list of the smartest people to have ever lived. Sagan, a decorated astronomer, brought science into the mainstream during the 1970s with the TV show Cosmos, which he wrote and presented. When the government had questions about space, they called Carl Sagan. Sagan never shied away from his vocal love of cannabis and the need for cannabis law reform. Carl was always prepared to discuss the benefits of cannabis as he did in this article about why he liked smoking marijuana. If Carl were still around, he’d probably be trying blast off with RiverBluff’s Starman gummies.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
You’ve read about a charismatic pothead, a driven pothead, and a genius pothead but what about the physically fit pothead? How about one of the most physically fit people of all time? Arnold Schwarzenegger! That’s right. The man who was once a muscle mountain loved to hit the ganja after lifting. Several shots of him hitting the green can be seen in the documentary Pumping Iron. Arnold would go from bodybuilding, to acting to politics. Not too shabby for a stoner speaking their second language. Arnold would probably be into something strong like him such as RiverBluff’s Bluff Pops.
William Shakespeare
This one may be a bit farfetched. It is not like there are pictures, interviews, or references to Shakespeare smoking cannabis. However, that doesn’t mean there is no evidence that big Bill liked to toke a bit. Though experts refuse to agree, the clay pipes with drug residue found by archeologists at Shakespeare’s home cannot be denied. This one may have the least evidence to prove it but may be the most fascinating. The writer by which all writers are judged may have been just as high as the rest of us while he wrote! That’s pretty cool! RiverBluff thinks Billy would be show his affections with more than just word but with RiverBluff’s chocolate.

Do you want your weed to last longer? Don’t want to scroll through the 100s of articles on the topic? Don’t worry, we combed through them all for you to separate the things that seemed a bit farfetched and zone in on the things almost everyone agrees on. We know flower deteriorates over time and loses its efficacy. The best way to increase the life span of your bud is proper storage. Kick back in the cut, fire one up, and let’s learn how to store some weed stuff.
Tip 1: Keep It Cool, but not too cool
This one should go without saying but keep your cannabis away from heat (unless you’re ready to blaze up 😉). Heat causes buds to fry out and burn poorly and can cause terpenes to evaporate changing the flavor profile and overall experience. When we say keep it cool, we don’t mean keep it cold. Cold can also have adverse effects on cannabis flower especially at freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures can cause trichomes to pop and lower the potency as well, and nobody wants that!
Tip 2: Keep It Away from Sunlight
The Sun! Isn’t it strange how something civilization relies on to survive can be such a menace? It can burn your skin, it can give you cancer, and can destroy your cannabis flowers. Besides drying it, which we already covered, the sun’s UV rays can break down cannabinoids and terpenes the same way it makes colors fade. Keep your cannabis flower out of sunlight! Keep it out of the light for that matter. A drawer, cabinet, closet, or a super-secret hidden box all can protect your precious buds very well.
Tip 3: Keep it Dry
We don’t want you to have dry cannabis flower, but you should know moisture is not its friend. Moisture in jars causes more mold problems than anything else. So, unless you are brave and want to see if fire beats mold, it is best to just cut your losses and trash the bud. But like stated previously, keeping it too dry isn’t good either. It is best to keep your cannabis flower at 59-63% relative humidity for best results. You can help control this by adding humidity packs to your stash. Controlling humidity is also why you should avoid refrigerating your buds. The drastic changes in temperature will also lead to mold problems
Tip 4: Pick a Good Container
Always go glass! Storing cannabis long term in plastic, rubber, or metal containers can effect the taste of your herb. They work great for short-term use, but if you are looking to stow something away for a rainy day, you will want a glass container. Glass containers have far less effect on the taste of your weed. You can also get them in darker colors to help lessen UV light exposure even further. Many come with hermetic seals that also prevent moisture from getting in. Glass is the MVP of storing weed. Just make sure you get a proper size; you don’t want to have to smash it in there!
Tip 5: Keep The Container Clean
Think of your container as a clean room for your bud. It needs to be maintained or outside contaminants can get in and cause the dreaded mold. Mold sucks! It is the villain of storing weed. Sweat, dirt, random particulates can all get into your jar and bring mold right in there with them. If you notice your container has any gunk, grime, or wet on it, it is best to clean the container and dry it extensively before returning your stash. This probably is the last thing you think about when preparing to indulge but it will do your cannabis well.
One Last Thing
We know people smoke weed at different paces but buying in bulk will save you money in the long run. Even if an eighth will last you a while, buying a quarter, half or ounce will save you money and time so storing it properly is essential. Properly storing your flower can keep it fresh for 6 months to a year. Bulk buying will always save you time and a few bucks and, who couldn’t use extra money and time?
