Default Bowls/Joints

I don't know if we use different terminology in the UK (is this a USA site? I'm not sure lol). But I hear people use the term bowl a lot. I tend to refer to smoking amounts as 'joints' each joint being a hand rolled cigarette about twice the length of a single size ciggie paper and a mix of about 30/70 weed to tobacco.

I smoked about 3 of these joints a day when I smoked - so what does that equate to in 'bowls'?

A bowl is the amount of weed that it takes to fill your pipe. Joints and bowls are different things.

Most joints in America are purely marijuana. Whenever I have seen marijuana and tobacco I've heard them called spliffs.

"Bowls" and "joints" aren't measures of quantity. I've seen 0.3 gram joints. I've seen 1.5 gram joints. A bowl can be anything from a tiny one-hit thimble to a hookah bowl that will hold 7 grams.

Ive always known 'bowl' to be enough herb to fill a standard metal bowl on a screw together pipe.

it is impossible to compare a joint to a bowl size considering all bowls/pipes are different sizes and house a different amount of weed

Ditto on this! I hate the taste of tobacco, if it were mixed it would just be ruining all that weed.
