The second questions is, should the producers of legal cannabis continue to use false measures created by street dealers or should they calculate by a real US ounce
First off welcome to the boards.:jointsmile:

Secondly, is it just me, or is your math a lil' retarded for someone who is "science" minded. I can't figure out what measurement should have been attached to each number??:wtf:

Thirdly, sometimes shit is just done the way it's done because it's the way it's done and it's how it's always been done. Who's got a digi at home that measures to the millionth of a gram? Not to mention those who live by the triple beam.

I can appreciate random meaningless thought at times, but I couldn't help but but in here, so pardon me. No offense intended but I felt retarded knowing people were responding to that like it made sense and I didn't get it.

Peace love and dope
irydyum Reviewed by irydyum on . gram vs ounce I'm a science person, so I work exclusively in metric. On the street an ounce is well know as 28.0 grams, when in reality one ounce is 28.3495 grams. most mass limits for the folks here is 6 ounces. 6 x 28.3495 = 170.097. On the street this is 6 oz x 28 g = 168g. This is only a difference of .3495 of a gram, which is enough to roll a nice fat joint. At 6 ounce with the true metric conversion, a gain of 2 grams are gained, about 6 fat joints. Now I have two questions about this. If you Rating: 5
