Re: how much is a dime suppose to weigh?

in my area the lingo is.. eighth is 1/8th of an ounce a dime bag is a gram because we pay 10 dollars ( they just use cents instead of dollars to make it different) and a quarter is 1/4 of an ounce:) its interesting how the lingo is different everywhere you go

Re: how much is a dime suppose to weigh?

yea thats pretty much how it is around here a dime of good bud is always a gram and usually $10 but noone really buys dimes around here its either an 1/8 and sometimes a half 1/8 which usually goes for $25 sometimes $20

Exactly the same around here, although if you're good friends with a dealer you usually get better deals.

In KY, at least the North part,
they call an eighth a "Half quarter"
Never did understand if it was Talk around or
if they just didn't know it's an eighth/Z.

Re: how much is a dime suppose to weigh?

Where Im at in Michigan the smallest bag u can usually buy is an eighth and my eighths usually weigh 4.5-5g. The only friend of mine that will hook me up on dimes only sells top shelf generation bud his dad grows, witch he said is a NLx? The dimes he gives me weigh 1.5g sometimes just 1g depending on if the nug has a tiny stem or a larger stem.

Re: how much is a dime suppose to weigh?

Here a dime refers to $10 worth. Which is 0.5g of some super good stuff. Dub is $20 with is a gram. An eighth is 1/8 ounce or $45-60

Re: how much is a dime suppose to weigh?

Around here a gram is usually $20. So a half gram or .50g. would be $10 or a "dime". A nickle (although I have never seen something so small, hell I've never bought a dime!) weighs .25g. and costs $5. Basically the slang is referencing how much you will pay instead of the quantity.

To me things like dime bags are like buying M&M's one at a time. You know you are going to want more once you eat the one and you are going to pay a highly inflated price for that small quantity. Where as the guy who bought the bag can have as many as he wants and doesn't need to go looking for more. In conclusion, dimes are probably the most inefficient, inconvenient and expensive way to buy buds.

So true! A dime bag today is really not worth the trouble. Back in the day, a dime was 14 grams. Then it was worth the trouble.

Re: how much is a dime suppose to weigh?

I get 1/4 of mids for 30, pretty mids is 40 an 1/8, good greenpot is 50 1/8, great is 60 1/8. Dime depends on what you are buying and who its from in my experience, I've gotten a blunts worth out of dime bags easily but I have also gotten a fat j's worth out of them too, all depends on quality.
