So half a pound is 16 ounces.

Isn't that a lot to travel around with? It's been a while since I was around the stuff but I recall an eighth being an okay amount for a few spliffs. Maybe I was just a light weight...

No, half a pound is 8 ounces, or 225 grams. Sure, that’s still a lot.

Yes, it’s a lot, but what if you’re moving houses, going camping, or giving it to someone? It’s legal to give weed to people. It’s like being allowed to brew beer at your house but you can’t leave home with more than a six pack.
