A quarter pound is 112 grams, four ounces. On this page the same weight runs from $60 to $325, which works out between $0.54 and $2.90 a gram. The dearest costs over five times the cheapest, gram for gram, and the difference is what you are buying rather than how much.

Five and a half times, for the same weight. That is why the price per gram is worth working out before you choose, rather than comparing the number on the label.
Is a quarter pound actually cheaper than four ounces?
Almost always, and the saving is smaller than most people expect.
We compared every strain here that sells both an ounce and a quarter pound. Sixteen of seventeen are cheaper by the quarter pound. The saving runs from 2.5% to 21%, depending which one you pick.
One is not cheaper. Check before you buy
Mule Fuel sells at $50 an ounce and $295 a quarter pound. Four separate ounces would be $200. Work out the arithmetic yourself at this weight, because the bulk saving is not automatic and it is not always large.
What the grade words mean
Five different words appear on this page and nothing else on the site explains any of them. They describe size and selection, not strength.
| Word | What it describes |
|---|---|
| Trim | The leaf and smaller material separated from the buds during trimming |
| Smalls | Smaller buds, sold as their own line at a lower price per gram |
| Mediums | Mid size buds, between smalls and full size |
| Full size buds | Whole flower sold as the main grade |
| Exotic | Flower selected out of a crop for density and appearance |
Every batch here is lab tested the same way whatever it is called.
For how the flower was grown rather than how it was sorted, see The Royal Gardens, which explains greenhouse, light assist and light dep.
Choosing at this weight
If price per gram is what matters, the bottom of this page sits a long way below the top. Trim at $0.54 a gram is the lowest here by a distance.
If you want full size buds, the $195 to $225 band is the middle of the page and the widest choice.
Buying a quarter pound for the first time
Take the ounce first. A quarter pound is 112 grams of something you might not want, and the saving over four ounces can be as little as 2.5%.
Buy on batch, not on strain name. The same strain from two crops is two products. The photos and the lab results on each product page are what tell you what is actually in the bag.

Lab tested by batch
Every batch is lab tested and the results are published on the Certificates of Analysis page. All flower is US Farm Bill compliant hemp, under 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight.
