Having the right smoking accessories makes a huge difference. Whether you’re rolling up, hitting a bong, or vaping on the go, the right tools can take your experience from “meh” to “amazing.”
If you’re still fumbling with sticky buds, struggling with a clogged pipe, or dealing with stale weed, it’s time for an upgrade. Investing in the right gear doesn’t just make smoking easier; it makes it more enjoyable. Here are seven must-have accessories that every cannabis lover should have in their collection.
1. Grinder
You’re missing out if you still break up your weed by hand. Not only is it messy, but it also wastes your flower by leaving sticky residue on your fingers. A grinder ensures an even, fluffy grind, which means better airflow, smoother burns, and more efficient stash use.
Metal grinders (aluminium or titanium) last forever and make grinding effortless, while plastic ones do the job but wear out fast.
Want to get fancy? Go for a multi-chamber grinder with a kief catcher – a fine, powdery substance loaded with cannabinoids. Kief can contain up to 50% more THC than regular ground flower, making it one of the most potent parts of the plant.
2. Rolling Papers & Wraps
Not all rolling papers are created equal, and if you’ve ever had a joint burn too fast or unevenly, you know what we mean. If you prefer a slow, smooth burn, go for hemp papers. They’re sturdy, eco-friendly, and don’t mess with the taste of your buds.
Rice papers are even thinner and burn clean with almost no ash, making them a favorite for those who want the purest smoking experience.
Flavored wraps add extra excitement to your sessions, whether you like fruity, sweet, or even dessert flavors.
3. Glass Pipe or Bong
Nothing beats a good glass pipe or bong. Glass pieces are durable, easy to clean, and provide a pure, untainted flavor. A well-made bong cools down the smoke, making each hit smoother and less harsh on your throat.
Want an even cooler experience? Look for a bong with a percolator. It filters your smoke even more, giving you cleaner and smoother hits.
A simple glass hand pipe is a great alternative to a bong if you’re always on the go. They’re portable, easy to use, and require minimal maintenance. For those who like to mix things up, a bubbler combines the portability of a pipe with the water filtration of a bong—a win-win situation.
4. Vape Pen
If you love a smooth, flavorful hit, then vaping is for you. Unlike smoking, vaping heats your weed at a lower temperature, preserving the terpenes – the compounds responsible for the taste and effects of different strains. This means you get more flavor, less harshness, and a more controlled experience.
Another big plus? Vaping is discreet. Dry herb vaporizers allow you to enjoy the full flavor of your flower while reducing harshness, while concentrate vapes offer a potent, convenient experience with minimal smell. If you don’t have one, order a vape pen from KING’s Pipe and see what you’ve been missing.
5. Storage Container
Nobody likes stale, dried-out weed. Leaving your bud in a plastic bag or an old jar isn’t doing it any favors. It dries out the terpenes and makes your weed harsh and less potent. To keep your flower fresh, invest in a proper airtight storage container.
Glass jars (like Mason jars) are a simple, affordable option. If you want something even better, go for a smell-proof stash jar designed specifically for cannabis. These containers lock in freshness and keep your stash discreet.
Plus, humidity packs like Boveda help keep your bud at the perfect moisture level, preventing it from drying out or getting too sticky. Fresh weed = better smoke.
6. Lighter or Hemp Wick
You can’t light up without a good lighter, but if you really care about taste, consider switching to hemp wick. Traditional lighters use butane, which can alter the flavor of your bud. Hemp wick, on the other hand, burns clean and lets you enjoy the natural taste of your strain.
It’s also great for slow-burning joints or pipes, giving you better control over how you light your weed. Just light the wick, use it to spark up, and enjoy the difference.
If you’re still loyal to lighters, a good refillable torch or Clipper lighter is a solid investment.
