What is a thai stick?

Thai Sticks are legendary cannabis products that originate from the Hill Tribes of Northeast Thailand. The traditional Thai Stick is crafted with a potent strain of cannabis called Asobinaka. The construction process involves impaling cannabis buds on a bamboo stick, then layering them with hash oil and wrapping them in cannabis leaves. This produces a uniquely concentrated form of cannabis, offering users a truly potent smoking experience.

What are cannabis cigars?

A Cannabis Cigar, also known as a Cannagar, is an enhanced smoking experience that utilizes hemp wick in place of tobacco. This natural and eco-friendly alternative is growing in popularity as more people seek healthier and more sustainable ways to consume cannabis. Essentially, a Cannabis Cigar dipped in hash oil is a contemporary interpretation of a Thai Stick, minus the bamboo skewer.

How to make thai sticks?

Creating your own Thai Stick requires certain materials including whole weed buds, cured cannabis leaves, bamboo skewers, hash oil, hemp wick, and parchment paper. After securing these items, you can start by coating your bamboo stick in hash oil to make the buds stick to it. Next, you’ll skewer your buds onto the stick and wrap them tightly with hemp wick for a uniform burn. Afterward, wrap the stick in parchment paper and freeze it for 24-48 hours. When it’s ready, carefully unwrap it, prepare your leaves, coat the buds with hash oil, and then wrap them with the leaves. The final steps involve wrapping the stick in parchment paper again and applying mild heat to seal everything together, and then wrapping the Thai Stick in hemp cord and curing it.

Hash oil

This is the main ingredient; you can make it yourself! Another process you must follow involves dissolving the weed in a solvent and filtering it.

We will add a link to a “How To” soon, so we can guide you through this step by step. Caution is advised due to the flammability of the solvent. It would be best if you didn’t burn anything but a blunt 😉

With a bit of luck and the right connections, you might be able to purchase it.

How to put your thai stick blunt together

You will begin to construct your Thai Stick following the procedure in the images below:

1. to start, you will need to gather all of your materials.
2. Next, you must coat your bamboo stick in hash oil. This will allow the bud to stick to the skewer while you finish the process.
3. You will then skewer your buds on the Stick, being careful, and leave 1 cm at each end of the skewer. Being careful not to break off any buds, tie your hemp cord to one end of the Stick and start to shape them evenly while wrapping them tightly – this produces an even burn throughout the Thai Stick.
4. Wrap the Stick in your parchment paper and put it in the freezer for 24-48 hours. Some people will choose to leave it for an extra day, but it should not stay for more than 3 days.
5. Take the skewered buds from the freezer and carefully unwrap the parchment. Remove the string at this point – taking extra caution not to break any off the Stick.
   – Once the string is off, prepare your prepared leaves.
   – You will want to prepare your leaves by washing them and letting them dry ahead of time.
6. Now, you want to begin wrapping the Stick with your fresh cannabis leaves.
   – Coat the buds with hash oil.
   – Carefully wrap the buds with the cannabis leaves.
   – You will want to do this three times, so your Stick is wrapped up in three layers of leaves.
7. Wrapping the Stick in parchment paper again and heat it lightly in a pan or hot plate. This will cause the hash oil to melt and seal everything together. Be Careful! DO NOT BURN IT!
8. Remove the paper and gently wrap the Thai Stick in the cord again.
9. Wrap it in the paper again in preparation for curing.

Frequently asked questions

The primary distinction between a Thai Stick and a Cannabis Cigar pertains to the time and method of their construction. A Cannabis Cigar is essentially a joint that uses cannabis leaves in place of traditional rolling paper. Thai Sticks, on the other hand, involves skewering and compressing cannabis buds onto bamboo sticks, which are then bound by hemp string and dipped in oil.

Are thai sticks made from an indica or sativa strain?

Historically, Thai Sticks have been produced exclusively using pure Sativa strains of cannabis.

1. Greengo

Greengo contains four primal ingredients:

• Eucalyptus
• Mint
• Hazelnut leaves
• Papaya.

As opposed to herbal tobacco, Greengo doesn’t harbor any nicotine content and has far lesser tar. It is an excellent combo for smoking marijuana as it doesn’t induce any feelings of addiction.

2. Sage

The consumption of Sage (Salvia officinalis) didn’t start recently. It is a natural herb with many therapeutic merits and helps eliminate digestive problems.

When used in rolling marijuana joints, one can quickly feel its healing effects kicking in fast, especially when White Sage is used.

3. Damiana

You have certainly heard about Damiana or used it to fancy your pot hit. A native plant in Mexico, Southern Texas, the Caribbean, and Central and Southern America.

This tobacco substitute has many health benefits, and most people have used it as an aphrodisiac for as long as it can be remembered.

Among the Aztecs, they used it for addressing infertility among men and upping sexual desire. It harbors intense psychotropic effects, just like high marijuana THC levels.

Couple up your high with Damiana in rolling joints instead of tobacco when you want to witness that couch-locked feeling.

4. Kanna

Kanna, scientifically called Sceletium Tortosum, or Channa, has existed in South Africa since prehistoric times, and pastoralists used to snuff it for smoking. Since then, it has been known for enhancing one’s mood, alleviating stressful conditions, and easing anxiety.

Depending on the doses consumed, heavy ones get described as causing sedating effects. This typically translates to fantastic outcomes when it gets used to smoking ganja.

Nonetheless, this tobacco substitute has some side effects. For instance, some write-ups purport that Kanna can increase blood pressure in temporary extremes. This brings us to the conclusion that it would be fantastic to ensure that you conduct due diligence before using Kanna.

5. Hops

Hops are the flowers of Humulus lupulus. Today, they get used to flavoring and bittering beer. However, as they belong to the cannabis family, these flowers also get used as replacements for the tobacco herb.

The easiest way to know hops when ingesting their vapor is through their sweet aroma and flavors since the terpene myrcene forms an integral part of them.

Now that myrcene harbors a combination of anti-depressant and sedative effects, it’s a fantastic product to raise the potency levels of your grass.

Nonetheless, it would be much more helpful if you smoked cannabis rolled with hops joints using low temperatures. High temperatures have characterized many side effects. If high temperatures do you the best, it would be ideal to go the vaping blends way instead of smoking.

The rape, a powder made from ancient Amazonian plants with tobacco as its main ingredient, is considered both a physical and spiritual medicine that contributes to the purification of the pineal gland. This gland, located in the brain, is believed to provide a direct connection to universal energy. rape, also known as rapeh, hapé, or hapay, is a type of tobacco that is inhaled and used in South American shamanic practices. It consists of a mixture of powdered plants, including tobacco and tree ash, and is administered by insufflation, or blowing into the nose, as part of sacred ceremonies. It is often used in combination with other ceremonial medicinal plants, such as ayahuasca. The rape formulation contains plant and mineral ingredients that have been used by various Amazonian tribes for thousands of years.

rape is a form of tobacco used in Amazonian shamanism and is administered through a pipe called a kuripe or tepi, which is blown directly into the nostrils. This practice, which plays an essential role in shamanic traditions, is derived from plants such as Nicotiana tabacum and Nicotiana rustica, which have been used for medicinal purposes in the Americas for thousands of years.

Throughout history, tobacco has been consumed both smoked and inhaled. Its name, “tobacco,” probably comes from the pipe used by Native Americans to smoke it. Since its inception, indigenous communities in the Americas have used tobacco for medicinal and recreational purposes. According to Daniss Lasserna, a therapist and researcher of ancestral knowledge, members of these tribes are in constant contact with nature, fasting and isolating themselves to purify themselves energetically before using tobacco as medicine.

Tobacco insufflation, or inhalation, was a common practice in the Americas before its discovery by Westerners in the 16th century. It spread rapidly to Europe, where it was popular with the aristocracy. In 1624, however, the Pope condemned its use because the pleasurable sensation of sneezing (after insufflation) resembled sexual ecstasy. Despite its decline in Europe in the 19th century, the tradition of rape, especially rape mixtures, continues to be important in the shamanic cultures of the Amazon.

rape, a specific type of tobacco found throughout the Amazon, usually contains Nicotiana rustica and is mixed with other plants. In addition to its medicinal use, its use is considered a form of self-knowledge and a way of transmitting wisdom among generations of traditional practitioners in Amazonian tribes.

Ancestral use

The rape can be used in two ways: individually, in a moment of solitude, or as part of a ritual led by a therapist; however, its most common use is spiritual rather than medicinal in nature. The rape has been integrated into various Amazonian cultures, particularly among the Huni Kuin, Yawanawa, Katukina, Apurina, Nukini, and Kuntanawa. In these Amazonian tribal communities, rape plays a fundamental role in social contexts as well as in ceremonies and healing treatments.

In addition to its use as rape, tobacco is consumed in a variety of ways in these cultures, including ingestion of the juice extracted from the plant, topical application as an ointment, or inclusion in ayahuasca recipes. Tobacco is used to purify and protect objects and people, and to release negative energies. During ceremonies, much higher doses are administered to deepen introspective and self-understanding processes. The application of rape through the nose creates an essential bond between therapist and patient that is fundamental to the healing process. Similarly, in Amazonian traditions, rape is as revered a medicinal plant as any other. Shamans engage in years of preparation, fasting in its company and familiarizing themselves with its spirit through repeated trips to its spiritual realms.

“The medicine is not limited to the rape itself, but resides in the intention of the one who administers it. rape acts as a channel for spiritual energy, so it is critical that the person using it maintain a neutral, healing intention toward the other person,” Lasserna said.

Exploring the properties of Rape

The therapist uses rape as part of therapy sessions, combining psychological questioning with dialogue. Patients gradually reveal their fears under her guidance, using rape as well as other alternative medicines such as ayahuasca or peyote. In addition to its therapeutic use, rape is also used to relieve allergies, headaches, and to improve mental concentration when needed. It is important to keep in mind that excessive use of rape can lead to a mild dependence like smoking, and the frequency of use should be related to the physical or energetic ailment it is intended to treat.

Despite the traditional medicinal properties of rape and the pharmacological safety of nicotine, all tobacco products carry some risk, as tobacco in any form is potentially carcinogenic. Some research suggests that rape powder may be less harmful than smoking tobacco, but most studies compare rape to Western cigarettes, which contain harmful additives and chemicals. In short, there is no clear understanding of how the harmful effects of rape compare to other tobacco products. 

For generations, rape has been used for its medicinal properties, not only to treat physical ailments, but also to explore the inner energies of patients, restore spiritual balance, and eliminate negative energies in shamanic contexts.
