Objašnjene mjere težine kanabisa: grama do unci

Razumijevanje težine kanabisa pomaže vam da saznate što kupujete, provjerite kupnju i dobijete najbolju vrijednost. Bilo da ste u ambulanti ili provjeravate s skalom, ovaj vodič objašnjava sve standardne mjere.

brz odgovor

Kanabis se prodaje u metričkim gramima, ali se zove s imperijalnim razlomcima. Ključne težine: 1 gram (pojedinačna porcija), 3,5 g (osmi/8 oz), 7 g (četvrtina/1/4 oz), 14 g (pola/1/2 oz), 28 g (unce/oz). Unca je jednaka 28,35 grama, ali se obično prodaje kao 28 g. Cijene po gramu smanjuju se kako se količina povećava.

Zašto se mjerenja čine zbunjujućim

metrika vs imperijalna

Cannabis koristi hibridni sustav:

• Grams (metric) for actual weight
• djelićice unci (imperial) for naming

To se razvilo iz tradicionalnih tržišta koristeći unce dok ljestvice koriste grame.

Rounding

Technical:

• 1 unca = 28,3495 grama

U praksi:

• Prodaje se čak 28 grama
• Osmo 3,5 g (ne 3,54 g)
• blagi gubitak u većim količinama

žargon

Iste težine, različita imena po regijama:

• Osmo: narežite, rezati, pola četvrtine
• Quarter: Q, quad, seven
• Ounce: zip, zone, O, Z

Pricing and Value

Price Per Gram Comparison

Key insight: Larger quantities = lower cost per gram. An ounce often costs 30-40% less per gram than buying by the eighth.

When to Buy More

Buy larger if:

• You use regularly
• Strain is a favorite
• Storage is proper
• Price break is significant

Buy smaller if:

• Trying new strain
• Occasional use
• Storage concerns
• Budget constraints

Verifying Your Purchase

Using a Scale

Always verify:

• New dispensary
• Expensive purchases
• Anything that looks light
• Pre-packaged products

How to verify:

1. Tare empty container

2. Add cannabis

3. Compare to labeled weight

Acceptable variance:

• ±0.1g for small purchases
• ±0.3g for ounces
• Significantly under = problem

Visual Estimation

Warning: Visual estimation is unreliable. Density varies hugely.

Denser strains:

• Look smaller than weight
• More compact buds
• Can seem "light"

Fluffy strains:

• Look larger than weight
• Airy, less dense
• Can seem generous

Always use a scale for verification—appearance is deceiving.

Dispensary vs Street Measurements

Dispensary Standards

Advantages:

• Pre-weighed and sealed
• Licensed and regulated
• Labeled accurately (usually)
• Legal recourse if wrong

Common packaging:

• Exactly 3.5g eighths
• Pre-measured in sealed containers
• Weight printed on label

Traditional Market Issues

Common problems:

• "Generous eighths" (3.0-3.3g)
• Wet cannabis (water weight)
• Heavy stems
• Inconsistent dealers

Why scales matter more:

No regulation, no labels, no recourse.

---

Special Considerations

Pre-Rolls

Weight includes:

• Cannabis flower
• Rolling paper
• Filter tip

Typical pre-roll: 0.5g-1g cannabis inside

Verification difficulty: Must break open to weigh contents.

Concentrates

Sold by:

• Half gram (0.5g)
• Gram (1g)
• Eighth (3.5g) for bulk

Much more expensive per gram but much more potent.

Edibles

Measured by:

• THC milligrams (mg)
• Not physical weight

Standard dose: 5-10mg THC

---

Common Questions

Why not just use grams?

Historical convention. The imperial fractional system predates legalization and stuck even as metric scales became standard.

Is 3.5g really an eighth?

Close enough. An exact eighth is 3.54g. The 0.04g difference is negligible but technically a small loss to buyers.

What's the most cost-effective purchase?

Usually an ounce, offering 30-40% savings per gram versus buying eighths. Quarter ounces offer the next best value.

How do I know if I'm being shorted?

Use a digital scale. Don't rely on appearance. Weigh immediately after purchase if possible.

---

Quick Reference Card

Memorize these:

• 1 gram = 1 gram
• Eighth = 3.5 grams
• Quarter = 7 grams
• Half = 14 grams
• Ounce = 28 grams

Price rule of thumb:

• Eighth: ~$10/gram
• Quarter: ~$8-9/gram
• Ounce: ~$6-8/gram

Verification:

Own a scale. Use it. Every time.
