eighth ounce -- equivalent weights??

Post by theHit »

ok i just picked up a half quarter from this guy......he gets me good shit but its just one big compressed bud this time, and i want to weigh it to make sure its right.......cuz if not then im not buying from him again

so anyone know of anything around the house i can balance 3.5 grams with? like a certain combination of coins or something?

im jus bored and i wanna make sure its about the right amount cuz he might be tryna play me this time......and it looks like a little less than it should be.....hes like "its good shit, but its hard to break up, youll see"


oh if this is the wrong section then please move it!

thanks for the help!

I have always used a scale so I've never had that problem so I have no ideas how to help you out other than get a scale.

Kitchen scales won't weigh to point of a gram but if you've got a lot of bud it will put you in the right ball park. See in the U.K. were lucky cause 1p weighs 3.5g :lol:

I have these multi vitamins in my house that weigh 500 mg each. So 7 pills would be 3.5 grams. I never actually tried it, but it would work.

An english penny weighs exactly 3.5, but you're american and you already weighed it so that's not going to do you much good.
