What Is Gram?
A gram is the smallest standard cannabis purchase unit, ideal for trying a new strain or a one-time session.
Gram Explained
A gram (abbreviated "g") is the base unit of measurement for cannabis products. One gram of flower is roughly enough for 1-3 bowls or 1-2 small joints. For concentrates, one gram is a standard purchase size that can last significantly longer due to the concentrated potency. A gram is the smallest commonly available purchase size at dispensaries and is ideal for sampling a new strain before committing to a larger quantity. There are 28 grams in one ounce.
Why It Matters
Buying by the gram is the best way to try new strains without a big commitment. It is the entry-level purchase for sampling what a dispensary offers.
