Zero Four Twenty Beginners Guide Series Ep. 1

What Are You Actually Getting?

If you’ve ever stood in front of a menu and had no idea what you were looking at — this guide is for you. No judgment. No gatekeeping. Just a clear, honest breakdown of every size, every price, and what to expect.

The Basics: How Herb Is Sold

Herb is sold by weight. The single most important thing to understand is that 28 grams equals one full ounce. Every other size on the menu is just a fraction of that. Think of it like buying coffee — you can grab a single cup, a small bag, or a full pound. Same idea.

The Firewatch — 1 Gram Pre-Roll | $8.00

The Firewatch is a single 1-gram cone, packed using the fill and fold method with USA Cones. Ready to enjoy with zero preparation required.

The name is a military callback — Firewatch refers to a short period of guard duty. One session, one watch, one moment.

  • Best for: first-timers, casual enjoyers, trying a new strain before committing
  • Lab tested: full panel COA same as every ZFT product
  • Price per gram: $8.00

The 3.5 Gram Eighth | $22.00

3.5 grams is one eighth of an ounce — the single most popular purchase size in the herb world, globally. It roughly fits in the palm of your hand and typically contains 3–5 buds depending on size.

  • Best for: casual to regular enjoyers
  • How long it lasts: 1–2 weeks for a light user
  • Price per gram: $6.28
  • Better value than a single cone

The 7 Gram Quarter | $40.00

Seven grams is a quarter ounce — exactly two eighths in one bag. You’ll notice the difference in hand compared to an eighth straight away.

  • Best for: regular enjoyers who want to stock up
  • Price per gram: $5.71 — saves $4 vs buying two eighths separately
  • Fills a small bag comfortably

7 Gram Smalls | $35.00

Smalls are the smaller buds from the same premium plant. Same genetics, same lab test, same potency — just a different physical size. This is the best-kept secret on the menu.

  • Best for: grinding, bowls, cones — if you’re breaking it down anyway
  • Price per gram: $5.00 — the best value per gram on the entire menu
  • Common misconception: smaller buds are NOT lower quality

⭐ Pro Tip: If you grind everything before use, smalls are the smartest buy on the menu. Same herb, best price.

The 14 Gram Half Ounce | $75.00

Fourteen grams is half an ounce — four eighths in one bag. You’ll know you have a significant amount in hand. Think a loose fist-sized pile of herb.

  • Best for: frequent to daily enjoyers
  • Price per gram: $5.35
  • How long it lasts: 2–4 weeks for a daily enjoyer

The 28 Gram Full Ounce | $140.00

Twenty-eight grams is a full ounce — the maximum single purchase on the menu and the best price per gram available. More than you think when you see it in person.

  • Best for: heavy daily enjoyers, groups, or loyal strain fans
  • Price per gram: $5.00 — tied with smalls for best value
  • Eight eighths for the price of six

Libo-72 — 3-Pack Cones | $22.00

Libo is military slang for liberty — time off. 72 hours. Three days. Three cones. One per day. Packed using the fill and fold method with USA Cones, using the same lab-tested herb as every other ZFT product.

  • What’s inside: 3 × 1g premium cones
  • Named in honour of the 22 veterans lost to suicide daily
  • Value: saves $2 vs buying three Firewatches individually
