Understanding Weed Measurements

Cannabis is commonly sold in a range of different cannabis quantities, from one gram up to a full ounce or even a quarter pound for bulk buyers.

When hosting shoppers at Mood.com, we guide them on a cannabis journey that ends with a product page featuring clear breakdowns of how each bag of weed is measured and accordingly priced.

We sell in common weed measurements such as 1G, 3.5G (or an eighth), 7G (or a quarter), 14G (half-ounce), and 28G (Oz).

Of course, you can double up and just add two 1G orders to your cart for a more specific amount — i.e., two grams.

Understanding these weights is essential, especially when purchasing from us or from dispensaries that price their cannabis flower based on the exact weight or THC percentage.

Common Sale Quantities in the Cannabis World

You'll see that our breakdown is similar to that which you'll find from many dispensaries and distributors.

Typically, retailers sell different strains based on their quality. We have a similar tier system featuring Top Shelf, Premium, and Economy options.

Here's a breakdown of common quantities used in the cannabis world:

  • One gram – This is about the size of a dime bag, perfect for personal use.

  • 3.5 grams (eighth) – This popular option is enough for several joints.

  • Seven grams (quarter ounce) – A solid mid-range purchase, a quarter is great for regular smokers.

  • Ten grams – Just under a half oz but more than a quarter ounce, this is a somewhat unique measurement.

  • 14 grams (half zip) – A great better value option for frequent cannabis users, the half oz has been a mainstay bulk purchase for generations.

  • 28 grams (one ounce) – The legal limit in many legal states, an oz can set you up for quite some time for personal use. Slang terms include: "zip" and "O."

How Big Is 10 Grams of Weed?

Ten grams of cannabis flower can vary in size depending on density varies from strain to strain.

Some denser buds appear smaller, while fluffier sativas take up more space.

The metric system used across the cannabis world (and the world outside the U.S.) ensures consistency in how many grams are in each purchase, but how much space it takes up will depend on the different factors of the specific strain.

Key Factors That Affect Appearance

  • Strain Density – Denser buds appear smaller.

  • Moisture Content – Drier flower may seem less voluminous.

  • Trimming Quality – Well-trimmed nugs take up less space.

Size Comparisons for 10 Grams of Weed

  • A bit larger than a quarter ounce

  • Two lighters side by side

  • Fills half to three-quarters of a sandwich bag

If you prefer dense cannabis flower, ten grams may not take up much space in mason jars, but fluffier strains may appear bulkier.

How Many Joints, Bowls, and Blunts Can You Roll?

  • Joints – 20-25 standard joints (0.4-0.5g each).

  • Blunts – Around 10-12 blunts (0.8-1g each).

  • Bowls – Approximately 30-40 bowls (0.25-0.33g per bowl).

Does the Strain Affect the Size of 10 Grams?

Yes! Different factors like strain type and THC percentage impact how ten grams looks.

  • Indica strains – Denser buds, more compact appearance.

  • Sativa strains – Airy, fluffy, and takes up more space.

  • Hybrid strains – A mix of both traits.

How Long Does 10 Grams Last?

  • Casual users – 10-14 days.

  • Regular users – 5-7 days.

  • Heavy users – 3-5 days.
