The Best Smoking Accessories for Cannabis Users

If you think a lighter and a cone piece is all you need, mate — you’re living in the past. The world of smoking accessories has exploded, and whether you’re rolling up or packing a cone, the right tools make all the difference.

In this guide, The Bong Baron runs you through the must-have accessories every cannabis enthusiast should have in their kit — from grinders to rolling trays and everything in between.


Why Smoking Accessories Matter

Sure, you can use a crusty old lighter and a ripped bit of cardboard, but where’s the joy in that?

The right accessories:

  • Improve your rolling or packing process

  • Make your sesh smoother and easier

  • Help you store, clean, and enjoy your gear properly

  • Add a bit of stoner flair to your routine

They’re not just for show — they’re for better sessions, every time.


Rolling Papers: Flavour, Size, and Material

Rolling papers are the cornerstone of every joint smoker’s kit. But not all papers are created equal.

What to consider:

  • Size: Single wide, 1¼, king-size, or even XXL

  • Material: Hemp, rice, flax, cellulose, and bleached vs unbleached

  • Flavour: Some infused papers add extra taste (for better or worse)

Rolling Trays: No More Mess

If you’re still rolling on your lap or your kitchen counter, it’s time to level up. Rolling trays give you:

  • A clean, flat surface

  • Curved edges to catch herb

  • Compartments for filters, lighters, cones, and more

You can even get magnetic lids or custom stoner art designs.

Herb Grinders: The Key to Consistency

A good grind makes everything better — whether you’re rolling or packing a bong. Grinders break down bud evenly for:

  • Smoother airflow

  • Better combustion

  • Kief collection

Storage Containers: Keep It Fresh, Keep It Legal

Storing your herb in sandwich bags is a rookie move. Quality stash jars:

  • Lock in aroma and freshness

  • Block out light and moisture

  • Help you stay discreet

Look for airtight, smell-proof, and UV-protected jars or tins. Bonus points for child-proof lids.

Lighters & Hemp Wick: Flame Matters

Any flame will do… right? Not quite. Lighters and wicks affect flavour, control, and even burn rate.

  • Classic Bic: Reliable, cheap

  • Refillable butane lighters: Great for torch-level needs

  • Hemp wick: A natural flame alternative that doesn’t alter flavour

Bonus: Other Handy Tools

  • Rolling machines: For those who struggle to roll

  • Doob tubes: For on-the-go pre-rolls

  • Joint holders & clips: Keep your hands smell-free

  • Cannabis-themed multitools: Because why not?

These might not be essential — but damn, they’re nice to have.


Conclusion: Build Your Stoner Survival Kit

If you're serious about the sesh, you need more than just a lighter and a cone. With the right smoking accessories, every part of the process — from grind to light — gets easier, cleaner, and way more enjoyable.

So stock up, get organised, and treat your ritual like the sacred art it is.
