How Much Is A Dime?

In a previous article, we explained how much an eighth of weed is. But another phrase you’ve probably heard being tossed around in the weed world is a ‘dime’ or a ‘dime bag’. If you’re not familiar with this term, then you’re probably wondering what is a dime of weed? How much is a dime bag? And perhaps even, what does a dime of weed look like?

 

How much is a dime of weed?

A dime bag of weed contains $10 worth of cannabis. Typically, you won’t find a dime bag being sold in any cannabis dispensary, as they’re exclusively managed by independent dealers, usually in states where cannabis is still illegal.

Since a dime bag is worth a set dollar amount, the quality of cannabis inside will vary depending on which state you buy it in. If you buy a dime in a state where cannabis is legal, such as California, then you’ll probably get some decent bud. However, if you go to a state where cannabis use is still illegal, then you run the risk of purchasing sub-par weed. This is because the price of cannabis is higher in states where it is illegal and dealers have much less of a selection of bud to buy from.

How much does a dime bag of weed weigh in grams?

A dime bag usually weighs out to a little over one gram of cannabis. In the rare event that you actually find someone willing to sell you one, you might get a little less or a little more. Basically the only time you’ll buy a dime bag from someone is if you live in a state where cannabis is illegal, or if perhaps you’re in another country overseas. If you live in a state where cannabis is legalized, you’ll have a much better selection of cannabis when you shop at a cannabis dispensary or cannabis delivery service like Kushfly.

What does a dime of weed look like?

A dime will usually be packaged in a small clear ziplock bag, about 1 inch by 2 inches. The weed will be stuffed inside and, depending on the quality, either be one bigger bud or a bunch of small buds. If you’ve really run out of luck, you might even find some sticks, seeds, and stems inside too.

 

Where does it get its name?

Since you now know that a dime bag costs $10, you may have realized that it got its name after the currency. After weed was made illegal in the United States in 1937, people spoke about cannabis in code. A ‘dime’ was one of the code words that was popularized and the name just stuck.
