USS Mason in the Falcon with bulldog bowl. I think this blend needs a little age on it so I’m gonna come back to it in six months and see how handles.
I can’t believe the temperatures I’m seeing on the US West Coast, stay cool everyone.

How in the hell do you smoke Golden Glow???? I can't get it to stay lit even if I dry it crispy.

I do just under crispy. I have found that for “fire retardant“ blends a few seconds in the microwave on a paper plate, followed by a little room drying does the trick. The nuke time varies between 7-15 seconds. I make the time decision based on the moisture and pliability of the tobacco and experience. I live in FL so, atmospherics (humidity) plays a role, as well. You will still encounter re-lights but, the quality of some of these ‘hard to stay lit’ blends makes it worth it for me.

Sticking the plate in front of an air source (vent, ac, fan, etc) after nuking speeds the process.
