Pass
A pass is the act of handing a shared joint, blunt, pipe, or vaporizer to the next consumer in a group smoking rotation. The canonical etiquette — "puff, puff, pass" — prescribes two inhalations before passing, typically to the left, ensuring equitable distribution and consistent rotation. The two-puff/pass-to-the-left convention is widely documented across cannabis-culture sources as a social norm rather than a codified rule; it is not operationalized in peer-reviewed measurement instruments, though solo-vs.-group context is captured in the Marijuana Smoking History Questionnaire and DFAQ-CU. Post-COVID, bring-your-own pre-roll and personal mouthpiece practices have modified traditional rotation etiquette. Group sessions affect total consumption measurement: individual delivered-THC estimates are less reliable than in solo sessions.
