How Much Is a Quarter Zip in Grams? The 7g Answer

Weed Weights: Where a Quarter Zip Fits (Eighth to QP)
A quarter zip is just one piece of the cannabis measurement puzzle. Here's the full chart from an eighth up to a quarter pound (QP), so you can see how the numbers add up.
| Common Name | Grams | Ounces | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Eighth (1/8 oz) | 3.5 g | 0.125 oz | Smallest standard amount |
| Quarter (1/4 oz) | 7 g | 0.25 oz | Also called a quarter zip |
| Half (1/2 oz) | 14 g | 0.5 oz | Also called a half zip |
| Zip (1 oz) | 28 g | 1 oz | Full ounce, the standard 'zip' |
| QP (quarter pound) | 113 g | 4 oz | Four zips make a QP |
So, how many quarters make a zip? Exactly four. And a half zip is 14 grams. If you're wondering 'is 2 ounces a zip?' — no, a zip is always 1 ounce (28 grams). Two ounces would be 2 zips.

Weed Slang Decoded: What 'Zip,' 'QP,' and 'Quarter' Really Mean
Cannabis slang can be confusing. Here's what the most common terms actually mean in grams and ounces:
| Slang Term | Actual Weight | Origin |
|---|---|---|
| Zip | 1 ounce (28 g) | From 'ziploc bag' — a common way to carry an ounce |
| Quarter zip | 7 g (1/4 oz) | One quarter of a zip |
| QP | Quarter pound (113 g) | Four ounces, or four zips |
| Eighth | 3.5 g (1/8 oz) | One eighth of an ounce |
| Half | 14 g (1/2 oz) | Half of a zip |
So when you hear 'what is a zip in the streets?' — it's just an ounce. A 'quarter' is 7 grams. And a 'QP' is a quarter pound, which is 113 grams.
Is a Quarter Zip Right for You? How to Choose Your Amount
A good fit if…
- You're a moderate user — a quarter zip (7 g) can last a casual smoker a week or more.
- You want a step up from an eighth — if 3.5 g runs out too fast, 7 g gives you more breathing room.
- You're trying a new strain — a quarter lets you sample without committing to a full ounce.
- You're sharing with a friend — perfect for a weekend session with one or two buddies.
Consider another option if…
- You're a light or occasional user — an eighth (3.5 g) might be enough.
- You're a heavy daily user — a half ounce (14 g) or a full zip (28 g) could be more cost-effective.
- You're on a tight budget — an eighth costs less upfront, though per-gram prices often drop with larger amounts.
Still unsure? Think about how often you use and how long you want your stash to last. Many dispensaries, including BX Buddiez, offer bulk discounts on larger sizes — so check the menu to compare per-gram prices.
