Eighth

What does “Eighth” mean?

One of the standard measurements for purchasing cannabis flowers. “Eighth” refers to one-eighth of an ounce or roughly 3.5 grams. Pricing for this amount tends to vary depending on location, quality of the product, and availability, but it can range anywhere from $25 to $60. Because cannabis is measured by weight and not the number of buds received, first-timers may think they're being cheated if they receive only two or three dense nugs as an eighth, but it should all measure out to the appropriate weight.

Example usage:

“I just got paid, so it's time to hit up the dispensary for an eighth or two.”
