Grinders vs Hands
For centuries humans have been breaking up bud with their hands to make joints, or even concentrates like hash. Even with the advent of mechanical grinders many cannabis users still prefer the old ways, and choose to break up flower by hand; but why?
Grinder Pros
The most obvious reason anyone would want to use a grinder over their hands is the speed. One could easily grind and roll two fat joints before someone was done breaking down their eighth. Grinders also produce an evenly grounded bud with consistency. This is great for more even burning joints, and blunts. Also most grinders come with an extra chamber that collects the kief during the process.
Grinder Cons
Grinders disturb the trichomes, separating them from the bud. This can reduce the potency and flavor of your flower. You also go through much more weed using a grinder when packing bowls or rolling blunts. This is because of how much smaller the buds are in comparison to hand ground. It takes more grounded bud to fill the same space in a blunt as hand ground.
Hand Ground Pros
Many people enjoy hand grinding for a multitude of different reasons. Some just enjoy the physical feeling of breaking up buds between their fingers. Though there are far more practical reasons as well, including being able to control the size and consistency of the bud. Many people also feel as though they are damaging the buds far less when breaking up with their hands.
Hand Ground Cons
Many people who are not fond of the hind grind generally refer to time and convenience as their reasoning. Using a grinder greatly reduces the amount of time spent trying to get a reasonable consistency for your joint/preroll. Also depending on how dense the bud you are using is, it can be difficult to hand break it into a proper smoking material for a joint.
