Marijuana measurements
    #5579767 - 05/01/06 11:39 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

OK so 1 ounces = 28.3495231 gram

However, in my vast experience, 1 ounce = 28 grams in the marijuana world. 1/8 therefore = 3.5 grams.

I ran into someone tonight who insisted on having 3.54 grams for their 1/8 ... and I was just curious how common that is- it seems completely universal practice to weigh out 3.5 grams per 1/8.

I've been smoking for a while and I have never seen anyone measure an 1/8 as that, (maybe due to the precision of their scales) but just wanted to see what you all accept as an 1/8 an ounce of marijuana.

It seems slightly unreasonable for someone to want that as their 1/8 because I most certainly did not get any more than 14 grams from the half zip it came from.

WTF? Haha..on my scale that would read 3.5 anyway. Yeah, 3.5 is an 1/8th anywhere I've ever heard (except random stupid people, yeah 4 grams is an 1/8th or 5 grams or even "anything less then 7 grams in your 1/8th and your getting ripped off"..generally idiots smoking shit). Yeah I would say, you get an 1/8th of what I get as an ounce..take it or leave it.

Even if you rounded the number properly it goes down not up. So it rounds to 28 grams for oz 7 grams for 1/4 and 3.5 for 1/8 !

They've obviously never bought weed before and just did the math out before hand so they wouldn't sound like an idiot... They probably thought you were trying to rip him off saying 3.5 was an 1/8... Most scales I've seen wont even measure grams to 2 decimal places... How much weed is 0.04gs? Maybe 5-10 extra pieces of broken up bud in a joint... How poor do you have to be or how much of a fiend are you that you need 0.04g's... That's not even noticeable to most people...

Yeah well, i'm sure you're that kind of guy that takes advantage of poor people and steals their 0.04 gr's of weed. Aren't you now? LOL.

Ignore them, mate! =)

it used to happen back when i sold, but with pounds. mother fuckers would want 454, but i wouldnt do it and they'd get pissed they only got straight 448.

so what i ended up doing is just tellng them my guy raised the price, pretending to be just as angry about it as my customers. I'd add a 100 bucks for the extra 6g's, which is actually MORE than they would have paid had they not been whiney bitches :wink: .  get ya hustle on, on them punk bitches who think they can hustle you. its only fair i say, fuck the ho's. :shrug:

That is pretty ridiculous. That person deserves a slap, with some baby powder. Peace.

Forget the baby powder, I'd suggest a slap followed by an immediate hard rub with sandpaper gloves
