Take the lighter and light the end of the folded Q card on fire.

Now lightly blow the fire out so it smokes.

Quickly insert the tip into the jar and cover the top with your hand while pinching the folded Q card in between your thumb and index finger.

When the smoke is your desired thickness quickly remove your hand and the folded Q card and screw on the lid.

The smoke will last for about 10 to 15 mins.

Smoke wants to rise so if you block its exit it has nowhere to go. Its as simple as that.
