what do you call an 1/8?

[fluid69]

I noticed that different areas have their own weed lingo. This has seldomly been an issue, but there is one time that comes to mind. one of my friends had some family come in from NY and they were looking to get a little smoke. I told them I could get a half nickel for $25 or a nickel for $50. they looked @ me like I was crazy! after a few minutes of discussion, I realized a "nickel" to them meant something completely different. Imagine the communication breakdown! LOL.

so here it is:

in my neck of the woods.

1/8 oz. = half nickel, or a small one

1/4 oz. = nickel

1/2 oz. = half bag, or half a big one

1 oz. = ozzy, oz, or a big one

quarter pound = QP

half pound = HP, or half an elbow

pound = elbow

1 gram = gerb
1/8 = eighth.. not too inventive there
1/4 = quatch
1/2 = half o
1 oz = o

I've never heard elbow used before tho. That's neat.

it comes from the abb. lb. (L-bow)

Take a pizza and describe accordingly. I don't know anyone who buys less than 1/8 so this idea works great.

Example:

1 slice of pizza = 1/8 ounce

2 slices of pizza = 1/4 ounce

4 slices of pizza = half ounce

2 pizzas = 2 ounces

Usually the description of the pizza can mean something too like:

Plain Pizza = regs/lows

Pepperoni Pizza = Middies

Pepperoni Pizza with Extra Cheese = Seedless Middies

Supreme Pizza = Nug

Supreme Pizza with Extra Cheese = Rare high quality nug

So an example order might be:

"Hey when we get food tonight can I order 2 Supreme Pizzas?" (can I get 2 ounces of nug)

There are lots of other methods I've heard people use but this is just one example.

Well aren't you clever :jointsmile:

I like how you guys seperate reg/low and mids and even acknowledge that there is seedless bud that IS STILL MIDS!!! It just didnt get pollinated. Around here people will say mids and the crap will come looking like some hay. And once it doesnt have seeds they act like its high grade.. fucking nimwits.

DIME= 1 - 2g MID GRADE
Dub(20)= 2.5-8th Mid Grade 1 gram High Grade
quarter= 1/4 oz
half= 1/2 oz
zip= whole
Quap=QP
P=Pound

not that creative out here.. LOL.. pretty straight forward.. a nickle everywhere I've been whether in Georgia or Maryland always meant a $5 bag.. which nobody sells out here unless you go to the city(DC) and will generally be a gram of regular or mid grade bud

1/8=eighth
1/4=quarter
1/2=half...
you get it. though we got one for the big O
Oz=ounce oz o onions

so you could say your picking up an onion for the steaks tonight-getting an ounce.

and around here there luckily is never schwag. but we got mids, nugz, sweet tea nugs(smells like tea bags), and headies then dank. in that order.

and thats the MD way

Lotsa fellow MDers here recently. I like

Pretty much the same as above...

Most people just say what they mean, too. Like 1/8. Or 1 ounce.

1/8 we call a henry (after king henry v111)
1/4 is a daughter
1/2 is a 1/2
oz is a whole one

1/2 is a 1/2
oz is a whole one

i like the idea that you call 8th as henry it makes so sense however around here we call 8th as dutch. rest of them is self-explanatory up there
