the better the weed the less you have to smoke ... good bud gets you ripped after a 1/2 a bowl - 1 bowl. Low grade stuff you need to pack 2-3 bowls toget the same effect. You dont save money eitehr way becuase the more expensive the nud the less you smoke at once and the longer it lasts, the less expensive a bag is h more you smokein one sitting and the faster the bag goes. It evens out in the end bu highgrade nuggives you a better high not like a mids high that makes your head all stuffy.
