Ganja is a word used to describe marijuana or cannabis. It is often used as a term for all forms of marijuana, including flowers, extracts, and distillates.
Ganja is considered a weed and is an illegal substance in most countries. Although some countries have legalized the use of medical marijuana or decriminalized its use and possession, it is not legal in the U.S.
There are several different types of cannabis plants that produce different types of flowers (also known as buds). The two main groups of plants are sativa and indica. Sativa plants tend to be lighter and yield higher levels of THC; indica plants tend to be heavier and yield lower levels of THC.
There are multiple ways to measure how much THC is in your ganja. One way is to measure the weight of the dried flower material and then calculate the percent concentration of THC relative to the total weight using an equation. Another way is to directly test the substance for THC content.

Next up is 0.0352809 oz, or 1 g. This is a common amount of weed to weigh out, and most weed scales can handle this amount with no problem.
Most pros would say that an ounce is about 28 grams, so this is almost a whole ounce! You could get quite high off this amount if you were careful with your grind and dose.
Really fine weed tends to weigh less than coarser weed, which makes it harder to hit an even weight. An easy solution to this is to just use a little more than an ounce!
An ounce of high quality bud will probably cost you around $10-$12, making it an affordable purchase for most. An ounce of low quality weed may cost you less, but you will get less high off of it due to lower THC levels.

The weight of a gram is very close to an ounce. Most scales will read the weight of a gram as close to an ounce, if not exactly an ounce. Because grams are a smaller unit, you will need to weigh less material to get a measurement.
For example, if you need one ounce of weed, you will need to measure out almost ten grams of weed. This makes it easier to measure smaller amounts of weed depending on how much you need.
One gram is also equal to one thousandth of a kilogram. Once again, the smaller unit makes it easier to measure larger quantities!
To find out how many grams in an oz, just divide the oz by 28 and then multiply that number by 28 once more.
0.035 oz
The next weight is 0.035 oz. This is one of the most popular weights for ganja. It is a medium-heavy weight, so it is not the heaviest, but it is also not the lightest.
Most quality cannabis comes in around this weight, making it a reliable gauge. You will often see people selling grams in increments of 0.035 oz, meaning you know you are getting what you pay for!
0.0353 oz is the highest weight that can be called a gram, so if you are worried about being shorted, make sure you get at least that much!
Some places may weigh out half grams, so keep an eye out for that as well when shopping around. It might help to do some research on how many grams are in a ounce to keep yourself from being fooled by other sellers.
0.03469 oz
The smallest quantity of weed measured in an ounce is 0.03469 oz. This is roughly the weight of one grape. You would need nearly 1,000 grapes to equal one oz!
Most places that measure by the ounce use a 28g measuring scoop. With this method, an ounce is exactly 300g or 10oz by weight. This makes it really easy to measure out an ounce, you just need to get a 28g scoop!
An average nugget of weed weighs about 2g. So if you wanted to make sure you had an ounce, you could simply add nine more nugs to your jar and you would be good to go.
When buying cannabis in bulk, it can be hard to know how many ounces are in your purchase. Luckily there are charts that show how many ounces are in a given amount of cannabis flower. One such chart can be found here.

The next smallest weight measurement is a gram. A gram is one thousandth of a kilogram. One kilogram is equal to one thousand grams.
Unlike ounces, grams are a universal weight measurement. All countries use grams to measure weight, which makes it a useful currency when traveling abroad. You will always know how much you weigh when you have a scale with which to measure your weight!
Like ounces, there are also fractional grams. A decigram is one tenth of a gram, and a milligram is one thousandth of that. Millions of things weigh just one milligram, including some bacteria!
Like we said before, it can get tricky when trying to measure very light things like gas or liquids using only grams. To account for this, scientists use something called a liter in place of all the grams in a volume of liquid or gas.
What is the conversion for grams to ounces?
Converting grams to ounces is a proportionate change. You need to know how many ounces are in a gram to make the conversion. One ounce is equal to about 28 grams.
So if the makeup product says it contains 8 grams of product, then you know that it contains about 0.3 ounces of product. Dividing the oz by 28 gives you 0.10 oz per gram, so you could say it has 0.1 oz in each gram of product.
Using our earlier example, if your friend has 1 pound of makeup, then she has approximately 68 ounces of makeup.
How much do you weigh in grams?
First thing’s first, you need to know your weight in pounds to convert it to grams. Most people have a general idea of what they weigh, but it can be hard to be precise.
If you are looking to lose or gain weight, knowing your average daily weight is important. It will help you know how many calories you need per day depending on your goal.
For example, if you weigh 150 pounds and want to lose weight, you would need to reduce your daily calorie intake by about 1,500 calories per day. This would lead to a weight loss of 1 pound per week, which is a healthy rate.
To determine how many grams you weigh, divide your weight in pounds by 2.2. This will give you your weight in kilograms. Then, multiply that number by 1000 to get the number of grams you weigh.
What is a gram?
A gram is the same as a gram weight. It is the unit used to measure mass. One gram is approximately the weight of a paper clip.
Like ounces, grams are also revalued depending on the substance. For example, one gram of gold is heavier than one gram of feathers.
Like most SI units, grams are now defined by measuring a certain physical phenomenon — in this case, the force exerted by a certain amount of mass when pulled with a certain strength.
The official SI unit for mass is the kilogram, which was originally defined as the mass of a particular cylinder of platinum-iridium alloy. The kilogram has been reevaluated to be as precise as possible based on new measurements using different techniques.
