What is a roach?

I guess I've never thought to use one because I don't need one... As long as you roll the j with a good smoking end and don't fish lip it then it's still a perfect smoke... I roll most of my joints very small anyway so there's no herb in the end to smoke anyway.. But there have been desperate times where I smoke the paper hoping to salvage any resin or crumbs of herb that might be in it. lol

Well..to me.. a roach is the end of a blunt that has herb in it, but you can't smoke it without you burning u'rself so then you let it go out and save it to put in another blunt or my personal fav... smoking leftover roachs in bowls... or you save a bunch of roaches of diff. types of weed and then rolling a master blunt. yeah! lol

I usually just call the crutch/filter a spliff. I've never heard it called anything else.

Spliff is another name for a joint. I don't use grinders I use my hands just some blunts poop and some don't I just throwna filter in cause I'd rather not get blunt poop on my fingers or mouth. But for joints I don't use them no need my joints never poop.

a spliff is a joint rolled half ciggy half gangja. and roach is just the end of any joint or blunt.

to me a roach is the end of a joint that is to small to smoke so i put the end in my pipe and hit it till its gone, kick it out, wa la! done, no more roach.
