How different is the potency for cannabis quality?

So my dealer is offering me corn weed for an extremely cheap price.. And I'm wondering if it's worth it. It most likely has stems and seeds and whatnot, but how different is it on potency usually?
He has some really good dank usually, but since he ran out it's what he offered. They're from the same strain. I could get an ounce for 100 dollars, that is a hell of a deal. Made me wanna look into this.
So any input? Thanks guys

If it's mids that's good for rolling joints but some weed is just garbage.

If he's talking about smalls (just all small popcorn buds) then it can be a good deal. I always buy smalls when I can cause ita way cheaper but still dank bud, just doesn't look as pretty.

It's lower quality weed, it's something people say in my area I'm not even 100% sure exactly on the difference.

I mean if you is talking about "popcorn buds" then the potency isn't going to be different if its the same as you usually get. Popcorn just refers to the size of of the buds, they are all small and fluffy.
You can have popcorn with any strain.

I think corn weed refers to some country outdoor. It can range from decent to beasters to swhoo. You gotta scope that first and come to your own conclusion.

Just wanted to update. So I finally tried some of the corn. And it's decent. No seeds, only like one stem to hold the whole nug, there are some small peices of leaf on the bud though.
It's probably 75% as potent as the more expensive bud he carries(it might be because it burns abit slower). It doesn't burn as good, and it's not as sticky, but it still gets me high. The smell is less strong. But since it has less water, I have about twice as much dry bud compared to the more cured weed.
I might buy an ounce since it's only 100 bucks.

Its probably outdoor. People in my area usually call corn weed plants that were grown in a cornfeild. Go in chop some corn down plant pre vegged plants and run it. Do a bunch of plants spread far apart, shitty for the farmer though.

Interesting, because here popcorn is "high grade" schwag or really poorly grown mids.

In my experience, shitty weed is schwag or ditch/dirt weed. I've heard people also call shitty weed mids but I find that to be an incorrect usage of that term.
If somebody sold me an OZ for 100 of some questionable quality I would make hash or edibles.

High grade here is just whatever it is (magic merlin, OG kush). To be considered high grade though it better decent size nuggets and and sparkly. Popcorn nugs are usually sent to concentrate production. Then again though this is a medical state.

I'm thinking of making iso hash with it or something. It's pretty decent weed, and at a killer price.
It's definately not the prettiest weed. It's much better than what I was meant to believe(told it'd probably be seedy and full of stems) but It's just dry. Pretty happy with the purchase.

Is 91% ISO sufficient for QWISO? I can't find 99% anywhere.

You should be able to find at least 95% solution somewhere. (I'm sure you'll be fine just let it set a bit longer)

I buy low grade weed for 100 an ounce and I enjoy it.
Your stuff may vary, mine has some seeds but I love that, I collect and save them, free seeds!
Its brownish rather then bright green, little smell, dry, looks like what would have been considered good weed a few decades ago. I like the high, its mellow, I can smoke a big fat spliff and feel no anxiety.
the price makes it good for daily smoking.
Sometimes "worse" weed can be better, as many people get intense anxiety from the "good" stuff.
I assume this stuff I get has a much more balanced THC/CBD ratio.

Yeah i love low grade. I'm weird, I hate getting really high. Dank seems to always get me too high. With low grade its not expensive and gets me at a comfortable level of highness.

Sounds like we have same or at least similar weed It's pretty good. Since it's drier I ot like 2-3x the amount in volume, although it's only a gram.

If the price is good get it and turn it into hash or a tincture.
Once in a while I get a bag of weed that isn't smokeable. I used to make iso hash out of it until the last time when I tried making ice hash instead. I liked it a lot better than iso.

If you're going to try this look for a tek. Don't go by this.
You basically dry the weed Grind it up Put it in a very cold glass with ice and water Shake it and let it settle I think the good stuff goes to the bottom because it isn't water soluble. So you scoop off the plant material on top and use that for edibles. Strain the water through a filter and that is your hash.
