How to Smoke an Infused Preroll: A Complete Guide For Maximum Enjoyment

Infused prerolls have quickly become a favorite for those who want more from their smoking experience. Combining premium flower with potent extracts offers a rich, full-bodied high that goes far beyond what traditional joints deliver. These are not your average prerolls—they're designed to hit harder, taste better, and burn slower.

At Mellow Fellow, our THCp-infused blunts are formulated to deliver precise effects through expertly balanced cannabinoid blends. They’re powerful, flavorful, and surprisingly smooth, but to get the most out of them, you’ll need to approach them a bit differently than a standard smoke.

If you're curious about how to light, pace, and fully enjoy an infused preroll, this guide will walk you through the process step-by-step so you can unlock its full potential.

Key Takeaways

• Infused prerolls combine premium flower with concentrated cannabinoids like Delta 8, HHC, and THCp, offering stronger, more targeted effects than traditional joints.

• Each cannabinoid contributes uniquely—CBG and CBD provide balance, Delta 8 offers smooth psychoactivity, HHC adds euphoria, and THCp delivers intensity and longevity.

• Smoking infused prerolls properly requires preparation, including a relaxed environment, correct handling, and the right equipment like a poker tool and a hemp wick.

• Lighting should be slow and controlled to avoid burning off concentrates too quickly, and airflow must be carefully maintained to prevent clogging or uneven burns.

• Proper pacing and inhalation techniques help avoid overwhelming effects, especially for newcomers to high-potency products like THCp-infused blunts.

• Infused prerolls deliver faster onset, more intense effects, and longer-lasting highs compared to regular flower, with distinct profiles depending on strain type.

• Mellow Fellow’s THCp-infused lineup is formulated for balance, using strain-specific blends to offer everything from creativity to deep relaxation.

What Makes an Infused Preroll Special?

Standard prerolls contain ground flower material, providing effects based solely on the strain's natural cannabinoid profile. Infused prerolls, however, incorporate concentrated extracts throughout the flower or along the paper, creating a more complete and potentially potent experience with targeted effects.

Our new THCp-infused blunts feature premium CBG and CBD hemp flower infused with Delta 8, HHC, and THCp distillates. This multi-cannabinoid approach creates a balanced yet powerful experience where each compound contributes something unique:

• CBG: Offers a calm, clear-headed base with potential focus and mood support

• CBD: Helps reduce tension and promotes overall body relaxation without intoxication

• Delta 8: Delivers smooth, functional psychoactive effects 

• HHC: Adds uplifting euphoria and a deeper sense of well-being

• THCp: Intensifies the experience with stronger potency and extended effects

This combination allows for more tailored effects than what's possible with single-cannabinoid products. Customers who try our infused prerolls frequently note the well-rounded nature of the experience, with consistent effects that feel intentional rather than overwhelming.

Our new lineup includes strain-specific options to match your desired vibe:

• Kali Mist (Sativa): Perfect for daytime creativity and engagement

• Mellow Kush (Sativa): Balanced energy with a smooth, relaxing finish

• Cereal Milk (Hybrid): Sweet, creamy flavor with versatile effects

• Super Boof (Hybrid): Bold flavor profile with balanced mind-body effects

• Ice Cream Mintz (Indica): Cooling mint undertones with deep relaxation

• Yoda OG (Indica): Legendary evening strain with profound unwinding properties

Let’s find out what equipment comes in handy for smoking your infused preroll. 

Essential Equipment for the Perfect Session

Having the right accessories on hand will make sure that you’re ready to make the most out of your infused preroll:

• A reliable lighter or hemp wick

• A stable ashtray (these can produce more resin)

• Something to hydrate with

• A comfortable spot to sit

• A poker tool (toothpick or paperclip) for maintaining airflow

Proper Technique: The Comprehensive Guide

Smoking infused prerolls can provide you with a whole new experience compared to regular flower, but the increased potency also calls for the right technique. Here’s how to smoke an infused preroll: 

1. Prepare the Scene

Infused prerolls hit harder than standard joints, especially when THCp is involved. Setting up a space where you can fully relax without needing to drive or take care of anything important afterward is a good idea. Comfortable seating, good music, and water nearby are essential.

These blends are noticeably more intense and really benefit from your full attention. Squeezing in a session before dinner plans or errands can quickly backfire. It’s best to block out some time to enjoy the effects without rushing.

2. Proper Handling Technique

This is crucial and often overlooked: infused prerolls require specific handling to prevent messy situations and wasted product.

• Always hold the preroll with the lit end slightly elevated. Think of it like a tiny incense stick

• Keep your fingers away from any visible oil spots on the paper

• Never squeeze or pinch the middle sections where concentrates may be heaviest

• For extra protection, consider holding near the filter/crutch only

• On warm days, briefly refrigerate (10 to 15 minutes) before smoking to firm up any distillate

• Have a small piece of parchment paper nearby in case of drips

We've seen countless customers struggle with oil-soaked fingers after holding an infused preroll incorrectly, but with the above tips, you can smoke our infused prerolls without any mess.

3. Inspect Before Lighting

Before lighting, thoroughly examine your infused preroll:

• Look for any areas where concentrates may have pooled (slightly darker patches)

• Ensure the tip isn't clogged with excess material

• Gently roll it between your fingers to distribute any concentrates that may have settled

• If you see any small holes or tears, patch them with a small piece of rolling paper before lighting
  

During our testing phase, we noticed that uneven distribution of concentrates was the primary cause of uneven burns and canoeing issues. Inspecting your joint or blunt and fixing these issues before you light it up helps improve the overall experience.

4. The Perfect Lighting Technique

The lighting phase is where most people go wrong with infused prerolls, because it’s not like lighting a regular joint or blunt:

1. Hold the preroll at a 45-degree angle with the filter end slightly lower

2. Toast the tip with your flame without inhaling for 3-5 seconds, rotating constantly

3. When you see a slight glow, take very gentle, short puffs

4. Focus on lighting the outer edge in a circular motion

5. Let the cherry develop fully before taking deeper draws

6. Never use a torch lighter as the high heat can vaporize concentrates too quickly

With our THCp-infused blunts, hemp wicks provide the cleanest light without altering the flavor of premium strains like Cereal Milk or Super Boof. The lower temperature gives you more control over how the concentrates melt and vaporize.

5. Managing Drips and Runs

Here's where experience really matters because infused prerolls can produce drips and uneven burning that require immediate attention:

1. Keep the preroll tilted with the cherry slightly higher than the filter at all times

2. If you notice oil beginning to drip down the side, rotate immediately so it doesn't fall

3. For persistent runs (when one side burns faster), wet your finger and gently dab just below the fast-burning area

4. If distillate begins to bubble through the paper, stop drawing and let it cool for 10-15 seconds

5. Ash more frequently than with regular joints (every 3-4 hits is ideal)

6. If a section is burning too hot, blow gently on the cherry to cool it

During a session with friends sharing our Ice Cream Mintz-infused blunt, we noticed that passing it around too quickly without proper rotation led to significant resin buildup and eventual dripping. Taking a "puff, puff, rotate" approach works much better.

6. Advanced Airflow Management

Maintaining proper airflow is essential for infused prerolls so that you can keep drawing without it feeling like you’re trying to pull through a clogged straw:

1. Bring your poker tool (toothpick works well) and use it the moment you feel draw resistance

2. Insert it gently near the filter if resin builds up, creating a small channel

3. For severe clogs, create a "rescue airway" by carefully inserting the poker about halfway down the preroll's length

4. If the filter end becomes saturated with oil, trim 1-2mm off the end with scissors

5. Never squeeze or pinch to clear blockages because this forces oils to seep through the paper

Many of our regular customers keep a dedicated "preroll kit" with thin poking tools specifically for maintaining airflow during sessions with our more potent blends like Kali Mist or Yoda OG.

7. Pacing Your Session

The potency of THCp combined with Delta 8, HHC, and other cannabinoids demands respect. Here are tips to make sure that you don’t overdo it:

1. Start with a single small puff, then wait a full ten minutes before deciding if you need more

2. Take shorter, gentler draws than you would with regular flower

3. Exhale immediately rather than holding the smoke

4. Put it down between hits 

5. For THCp-infused prerolls specifically, consider a 20 to 30 second break between puffs

6. Listen to your body. If you're feeling effects strongly, it's okay to stop

During product testing, one of our team members ignored the pacing recommendation with our Super Boof blend and ended up uncomfortably elevated for several hours. Start slow, especially with THCp products. You can always take another puff, but you can't un-take one.

8. The Art of the Proper Draw

How you inhale makes a big difference with infused products. Here’s how to draw on an infused preroll the right way:

1. Take mouth-draws first (pull smoke into your mouth without inhaling to lungs)

2. If the smoke feels cool and smooth, then inhale gently

3. Start with inhales that are half your normal depth

4. Exhale immediately and completely

5. As concentrates heat up, pulls tend to get harsher, so adjust by taking even smaller draws

6. If you cough, take a longer break before the next hit

Our Cereal Milk infused blunt delivers exceptionally smooth draws when used this way, while the more potent Mellow Kush may require extra caution with inhalation depth.

9. Extinguishing and Saving

Properly extinguishing an infused preroll preserves its quality for later use. They’re highly potent, so smoking them all at once is not recommended, at least not if you haven’t experienced the potency of THCp-infused flower before. 

1. Never stub it out like a cigarette because this crushes concentrates and ruins the structure

2. Instead, gently press just the burning tip against an ashtray surface

3. Rotate while pressing to ensure it's fully extinguished

4. Tap off any loose ash without tapping the actual preroll

5. Store vertically, filter-end down, to prevent oils from pooling

6. Use a preroll tube with a small piece of parchment paper to prevent sticking

7. When returning to a saved preroll, trim 1-2mm off the previously burned end before relighting

Effects to Expect from Infused Prerolls

What makes infused prerolls distinct isn't just their potency but the unique character of their effects. With our THCp-infused blunts, you can expect:

• Faster onset than traditional flower (typically two to five minutes)

• More pronounced initial effects

• Longer duration (often two to three hours versus one to two for regular flower)

• A more complex experience as different cannabinoids activate at varying rates

• Possible intense euphoria with a strong body sensation

The sativa options (Kali Mist and Mellow Kush) tend to produce more cerebral, engaging effects, while our indica varieties (Ice Cream Mintz and Yoda OG) deliver deeper physical relaxation. The hybrids offer balanced experiences that work well for social situations or creative pursuits.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Even experienced cannabis users sometimes approach infused prerolls incorrectly. Here's what to avoid:

• Taking Deep, Lengthy Pulls: This typically leads to harsh coughing and overwhelming effects

• Holding Smoke in Longer: This doesn't increase effectiveness but can increase irritation

• Standing While Smoking: The potency can sometimes cause light-headedness

• Smoking on an Empty Stomach: A light snack beforehand helps moderate the experience

• Racing Through the Session: These are meant to be savored slowly

For First-Time Users

If you're new to infused prerolls or THCp specifically, we recommend:

1. Start with a hybrid option like Cereal Milk for balanced effects

2. Take just one to two small puffs initially

3. Wait a full 15 minutes before deciding whether to continue

4. Have a trusted friend present for your first experience

5. Plan to stay in for the evening rather than going out

This measured approach has helped many of our first-time customers have positive experiences without feeling overwhelmed.

Storage and Preservation

To maintain the quality of your infused preroll between sessions:

• Store in an airtight container away from direct light

• Keep at room temperature (excessive heat can cause oils to leach out)

• Avoid refrigeration, which can introduce unwanted moisture

• Use within 2-3 days of opening for optimal freshness

The Mellow Fellow Difference

THCp-infused blunts from Mellow Fellow are the result of careful formulation built around balanced, effect-driven experiences. While a lot of infused products focus on cranking up THC levels, our blends are designed with intention, emphasizing how each cannabinoid works together.

CBG and CBD lay the groundwork, helping smooth out the intensity of THCp so the effects feel more controlled and enjoyable. This makes the experience accessible even for those with moderate tolerance, without sacrificing potency.

Each strain is chosen to match the cannabinoid mix. Yoda OG, for example, pairs perfectly with our formulation to deepen relaxation, while Kali Mist brings out the more uplifting, creative side thanks to its energizing terpene profile.

Conclusion: Smoking an Infused Preroll

Infused prerolls represent an evolution in cannabinoid enjoyment, offering precisely calibrated experiences in a convenient format. By understanding the proper techniques for smoking these potent creations, you'll unlock their full potential while avoiding common pitfalls.

Our new THCp-infused blunts deliver a premium experience that balances potency with purpose, providing distinct effects across our sativa, hybrid, and indica options.
