Need those unit conversions

Like, a gram of weed, or just a gram in general? More precisely, whose gram?

Yo. I was at an apple ~~orchid~~ orchard and there was a bag of apples and it stated 1/2 peck bag. I didn't know that means. I still don't. Volume? Weight? Whatever, do you want some apples or not?
I asked the cashier, "Hey, so what exactly is a peck? Like what would the amount be?"
He responded, " Well, like , if you took this bag and filled it up with apples then that would be 1/2 peck of apples."
I didn't want to explain to him why that didn't help because I thought he might have been a bit too high to give me a valid answer. They made good apple cider donuts there, though. Yum.
- An orchid is a flower. A group of trees is sn orchard.
  A peck is an imperial and United States customary unit of dry volume,[1] equivalent to 2 dry gallons or 8 dry quarts or 16 dry pints. An imperial peck is equivalent to 9.09 liters and a US customary peck is equivalent to 8.81 liters. Two pecks make a kenning (obsolete), and four pecks make a bushel. Although the peck is no longer widely used, some produce, such as apples, are still often sold by the peck in the U.S. (although it is obsolete in the UK, found only in the old nursery rhyme "Peter Piper" and in the Bible – e.g., Matthew 5:15 in some older translations).
  so 8.81 liters for the rest of us. Now we just need to work out what a dry gallon is.
  The dry gallon, also known as the corn gallon or grain gallon, is a historic British dry measure of volume that was used to measure grain and other dry commodities and whose earliest recorded official definition, in 1303, was the volume of 8 pounds (3.6 kg) of wheat.[1] The US fluid gallon is about 14.1% smaller than the US dry gallon, while the Imperial fluid gallon is about 3.2% larger than the US dry gallon.
  No... No!
  The dry gallon's implicit value in the US system was originally one eighth of the Winchester bushel, which was a cylindrical measure of 18.5 inches (469.9 mm) in diameter and 8 inches (203.2 mm) in depth, making it an irrational number of cubic inches; its value to seven significant digits was 268.8025 cubic inches (4.404884 litres), from an exact value of 9.252 × π cubic inches. Since the bushel was later redefined to be exactly 2150.42 cubic inches, 268.8025 became the exact value for the dry gallon (268.8025 cubic inches is 4.40488377086 L).
  screeches and turns to dust
- Its just a 'pack' of apples, but the farmer was from new zealand
I’m going coke
- Is this a Craig/Cregg thing? Do you pronounce Graham as Gram instead of Grayam?
Probably not weed. Where is weed sold in single gram increments? At least in the US, the most common increment is 3.5 g which is also an eighth of an ounce.
- Ohhhhhh, British Columbian and ex professional here on this one.
  Personal "bulk" sales are usually some in 1/8ths (3.5 grams) or more but in stores, the first page of their lil booklet is usually half or full gram pre rolled joints.
  Admittedly, for what it's worth, first time I saw this meme in the wild was at a pot shop while buying a pre rolled gram.
- You are either young or have middle class dealers. In 2007, you definitely did buy weed by the gram, and hydroponic stuff could be $20-$30 per gram in some areas if supply was scarce. Of course, places with competition had better prices, but some rural areas really price gouged.
  Ghetto dealers often sold bags by the price alone. $10 was usually 2 grams to an 8th of either backyard weed or Mexican weed that often had little bits of twine and the occasional Hispanic hair in it from when it was put in a bale and taken across the border. Some dealers would also sell nickel bags ($5) that was .75 to 1 gram—basically just enough for one blunt.
  I have been glad that I’ve gotten to see the weed industry evolve heavily over my lifetime, and I know that I only see about 20 years of it. I’m sure the old heads from the 70’s would have real stories to tell. In the words of Bill Burr, “you used to buy your weed by the pillowcase.”
- Perhaps the people that don't live in the US?
- Lol wherever high-school kids and budget minded people buy weed. That is where you buy in gr increments. Also any store I have ever been in has sold grams.

I had to look at the community name before I realized this was about unit conversions and not that alien sticky.

EDIT: I checked the original community it was posted in. Some scientists here have been doing a little experimentation for their thesis.

I'm like y'all scientists asking the real questions
I didn't realize it until reading your comment.

About three fiddy, but it's mostly shake.

$5/gram for mids, $10 for the fire

How old are you? If I may ask. I'm 40. Back in high school, a gram of fire was about 20. Mids came nickel bags and dime bags, 5 or 10 bucks.

"We use the same word for all units."

"Oh, you're British!"

Yes, definitely a science question!

There were some people at my university for whom it was a science question. And they paid about €1350 per gram and the first thing they did with it was dissolve it in sulphuric acid.
This was posted in a weed community first and then crossposted here. Because for a stoner the important question is "how much does a gram of weed cost?". For a scientist, more importantly the question is "what system of measurements do you use?", or, specifically, "how much [mass] is a gram [in your unit system]?"
But (taken literally by my autistic ass) it's one we already know the answer to because we're the ones who defined all the units in the first place. A gram is a unit of mass, not weight, which is why its value is the same regardless of the value of g. That's also why it's always measured with a balance rather than a scale. It's based on the Planck constant -- which is, well, constant.

"About tree fiddy"

Simple: 10,524 Grobs in a Slork,
2 Slorks makes a GrobSlork,
16 GrobSlorks makes a Foot,
12 Foots make a Grobe,
64 Grobes and 1 Slork makes a Sorlok

1 Earth gram = (2 GrobSlork(Southeren unit) - 4114 Glorbs(Deep ocean Standard.)) * 7 + 1 .

all this and they count in a different base
- Still better than Imperial.
- Pretty much all the data he given can be base 8. So aliens have four fingers on a hand
*For 7/5ths of the galactic standard definitions of "1".

how dare you. We do not sell our elders

In Contact (I can't remember if the movie, book, or both), they counted out things in terms plank lengths and quarks / leptons.

h = 6.626 070 15 x 10–32 kg m2 s–1.

Ah yes... the ol' Planck approach, I like it!

Gram? What? Drugs are legal here we measure that by the Ton.

Anyway that’s how the first intergalactic war on Drugs was started and space cocaine was made a schedule one.

Isn’t space cocaine also the secret to immortality?

Not in my propaganda it’s not!

80 if you’re polite

80 potatoes

What planet are we weighing on, fam?

Are your amino-acids right-handed or left-handed? Ah! You not know what left, right or handed meaning? The translator is terrific.

Learned it from a book, was gonna mention but I guess it’s like a spoiler.
