FAQ
Common questions.
How much is an eighth of weed?
An eighth is 3.5 grams. Prices range from about $25 for value flower to $60+ for boutique indoor, depending on market and quality.
What should I look for in good flower?
Look for dense, frosty buds with a loud aroma and a proper cure — slightly sticky, not bone-dry or wet. A recent lab test and visible trichomes are good signs.
Does higher THC mean better flower?
Not necessarily. Terpene content and a clean cure shape the experience as much as raw THC. A well-grown 20% eighth often beats a harsh 30% one.
