In the UK, cannabis is often referred to by quantity:

1/16 (ounce): ‘teenth' (sixteenth), Louis (the 16th)
1/8: eighth, eighter, single, Henry (the VIII), cut, slice, Garden Gate
1/4: quarter (ounce), quad, ‘Q', bottle (of water), farmer's daughter, mike vick
1/2: half (ounce), ‘halfie', ‘half-O', ‘halfer'
1: ounce, oz, onion Ozzy (Osbourne), ‘O', Oscar, zone, zip, Fosters
4 o's: QP, quap, Cutie Pie
9: bar (approx. 250g)
36: key, kilo (approx. 1 kg)
10^9: beenth (fictional term for a billion ounces)
£5s worth – ‘Dives'
£10s worth – ‘ten bag','tens', ‘benners', ‘ten bit', '10s poof', ‘a draw'
tuppence worth
Realistically though, unless you're safe with your dealer or you know the geezer who grows it, you're gonna get mugged off. Probably end up paying £10 and getting a 0.8/0.7.

In the US, cannabis is often referred to by price

Nickel bag, blunt (also referred to as a “nick”) — $5 worth
Dime bag (also referred to as a “dime”) — $10 worth
Dub – twenty bag, $20 worth
30 sack – $30 worth
50 piece (also referred to as an eighth or fatty eight) — You get 3 of that particular dealer's twenty bags (“dubs”) for $50, $10 in savings. Sometimes just comes in one bag/plastic jar.
25, or a quarter — It is $100 worth and works with the savings system by giving you $20 amount free with it.
Lid- $200 worth, It is usually the largest amount bought at a time. It is referred to as a lid because the height of the amount of marijuana in the bag is equal to the width of the lid of a bucket.
In the Northeastern U.S. it is common to speak of cannabis in terms of clothing store merchandise or food (e.g., a slice is 1/8 oz. (3.5 g))

Sock—1 gram
Shirt—1/8 ounce (3.5 g)
Pants—1/4 ounce (7 g)
Jacket—1 ounce (28 g)
Buyer: “How much do you think a pair of pants would cost?”
Dealer: “A pair of pants would cost $X.00.”
In Canada, similar terms to those in the UK are used, but grams are used in small quantities, and fractional ounces are actually weighed out in grams. For example, an “o” or ounce in most of Canada will be weighed as exactly 28 grams on a scale, which is an approximation. Common purchase units are the “half”, “quarter” and “eighth”, or “half quarter”, weighed out as 14, 7, and 3.5 grams respectively. Grams are used for lower quantities, and may be referred to as “grrs”.

In Australia, cannabis is usually sold in $25 bags (referred to as a “stick” or “wick” or a “twent”), $50 bags (referred to as a “fifty”), quarter “quart”, half ounces “half”, ounces and pounds, 1/8 can also be called a half-quarter. Dealers also occasionally deal $30 bags, common in Western Australia. On the sunshine coast most people sell in $10 bags or ‘tenners' or $50 bags.

In New Zealand, the smallest quantity you can usually buy is one gram, costing $20-25, which is referred to as a “tin” or a “tinny” due to generally being wrapped in tin foil. $50 bags are referred to as a “fid” or “fiddy”, and contain 3-4 grams. A “hundy” weighs about 7g and costs $100, although these are not always available. Larger quantities are in line with the Uk, Canada, and Australia, being measured in half ounces (“half”), ounces (“O” or “full”), and pounds.

In India, cannabis (and especially hashish) is usually sold in tolas, one tola being 10 grams. Interestingly, a tola is also the standard unit of weight used by jewelers and dealers often use jewelers scales to measure their product

bud: refers to the buds of the Cannabis plant. Bud may be high- or low-quality depending on several factors. Contrary to popular belief, marijuana leaves are usually not smoked (unless covered in resin from nearby buds, though such leaves are usually used for hashish production), rather it is actually the buds which are smoked. The buds of unpollinated female plants are preferred because these plants will focus their energy on resin production in order to catch pollen from the male plants (this resin is the only part of the plant which contains any usable quantities of psychoactive chemicals).
