Prerolls, Infused Prerolls & Blunts: What's the Difference?
Guide · Good Weed Co Newsroom · 2026-10-27
Prerolls are the grab-and-go favorite of the Coachella Valley — no grinder, no rolling, no mess. But "preroll" covers a lot of ground. Here's how to tell them apart.
Classic prerolls
A preroll is ground cannabis flower packed into a paper cone. Common sizes:
- Minis / "dogwalkers" — around 0.3–0.5 g, perfect for a quick session
- Half-gram — a good solo size
- Full gram — made for sharing
Multi-packs are popular because each one stays sealed until you're ready.
Infused prerolls
Infused prerolls add a concentrate to the flower — like kief, hash, distillate or live resin — either mixed inside or coated on the outside. They're noticeably stronger than regular prerolls and burn more slowly. If you're new to them, take a puff or two and wait before going further. (New to concentrates? Read our guide to live resin, rosin and distillate.)
Blunts vs. wraps
A traditional blunt uses a tobacco-leaf wrap, which means it contains nicotine. Many products now use hemp wraps or other tobacco-free options instead. Check the packaging so you know which you're getting.
Tips for a better burn
- Keep them fresh — sealed tubes, cool and dark. Desert air dries prerolls quickly.
- Toast the tip — rotate the end in the flame before lighting for an even burn.
- Slow down — gentle puffs keep the burn even and the flavor better.
- Don't relight endlessly — a stale, canoeing preroll tastes harsh.
