I've never known about the grams measurements. So, I need to know how many grams are in a nic, dime, and 8th, thanks!

Blocko · #2 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 07:56 AM

a dime is 1 gram

I've never heard of nic

an 8th is 3 or 4 I think.

a dime usually means 10$ worth of bud.. which isnt always a gram

hippagraph · #4 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 08:35 AM

by nic i assume you mean nickel bag which means 5$ worth of bud. so like a bowl to a bowl and a half.

johnnyBuz · #5 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 08:42 AM

luke i've never heard of a dime being 1/10 of an ounce.

i thought it was pretty standard that a nick was a $5 bag and a dime was a $10 bag. it has nothing to do with grams of bud.

so a $10 bag (dime) of shwag will give you more bud then a $10 bag (dime) of dank.

yes, i mean nickel bag, a dime is $10 here, and i under stand how much each costs, i need to know how many grams are in each. Thanks

hippagraph · #7 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 09:15 AM

the way i understand it (correct me if i'm wrong)
a nickel bag is 1/4 of a gram
a dime bag is 3/4 of a gram
an 8th is 4 grams
hope that was i dunno sorta helful?

ps. why do you wanna know?

johnnyBuz · #8 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 09:19 AM

the reason they were given the names nick and dime is because that is how much they cost, not how many grams are in it.

it varies, so there is no answer on how many grams you will get.

SwissChris · #9 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 09:19 AM

no an 8th is 3.5g and a quarter 7g half-oz 14g and an ounce 28g

YesICannabis · #10 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 04:16 PM

where i live a dime is .5 grams ($10) and an 8th is 3.5grams. 28 grams in an oz, divide by 8 = 3.5

nics and dimes don't have a set amount, they are called that because of their price. I can spend $5 for a nic of shwag on the streets and get 1 1/2 grams, but a nic of some good bud might only get you enough for 1 bowl. Plus, I've never seen anybody weigh dimes or nics when they were packing the bags, they usually just put weed in a little bag until it's full. Sometimes the bag ends up fat, other times it's slack.

here 5 bucks gets you 1 to 1.5 grams of mids (cause 5 = one blunt here, so however the dealer roller blunts, he hooks you up)... (no they dont come rolled lol) im stoned so bear with me, and a dime is usually just 2 grams....

Noldster · #13 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 07:57 PM

dont listen to the people who say an 8th is 3 or 4 grams. itll confuse you when you dispute with a dealer and he eventually takes out a knife or a gun and we dont want that happening now do we? 8th = 3.5 grams. ounce is 28 grams, any measurement you wanna do you just divide 28. i.e. 28/8 is 3.5 for an 8th

ideal · #14 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 11:04 PM

WTF are you guys talking about? a dime is a dime cause its a comparison to cents being .1 and a dime being 10C so its like 10 cents is 1 gram you num nuts ... thats why a nickle is .5 grams and costs 5$

nickle = 5$ = .5 grams
dime = $10 = 1 gram
1/8'th = $35 = 3.5 grams not 3-4, lol
quarter = 70 = 7 grams
half ounce = $90 = 14 grams
ounce = $180 = 24 grams

the price will not be the same but the grams/weights will anybody who tells you other wise doesnt know what theyre talking about or are getting ripped off

Exactly what Noldster said

keepitUnreal · #15 (**permalink**) 07-19-2004, 11:25 PM

A nickle is $5 no matter the amount, and a dime is $10, for any amount. If you bought a half O for $10 it would still be a dime. And an O is 28 grams.
