I wanted to figure out how to get the best bang for my buck from the buds available to me. I’m Australian and have a prescription for medicinal weed.

I like getting value for money but also a left over from black market purchasing avoiding getting scammed. In Australian black market, generally you want at least 28g (an ounce) for $350 AUD, at least it was last time I checked. this works out to $12.50 a gram.

The buds I’m currently getting are $13.90 a gram, this is absolutely worth it, the quality of THC content and curing are phenomenal! but after completing this exercise there are buds that are under $10 a gram which is what I’m going to ask about at my next check in.

ultimately the calculation is price of jar / (grams in jar x % of THC as decimal)

the lower the number, the better the value (in my opinion)

I also need to let you know that I managed to get this calculation from chatgpt by asking it and telling it what I was trying to achieve. I still don’t actually fully understand what multiplying the grams in jar by the THC% decimal is doing. My mathematics literacy has diminished since highschool. I only landed on the above calculation because I could see in my spreadsheet that it looked about right haha.

I’d love to know if this is useful and if you’re into maths, an explanation of what is happening

have a good weekend y’all

    yeah it seems the filter resets to how I pasted the info in. sharing permissions aren’t allowing you to use the filter, sorry about this.

    thanks for explaining. I understand what’s going on now.
