THC Dosage Calculator For THC Oil, THC Vapes, And More

Inhalation THC Dosage Calculator Guidance

THC oil dosage is easy; you just calculate how many mL you are taking (typically on your dropper) and use that to see how many mg of THC you are ingesting (most labels will show you mg/mL). However, if your selected form factor within the THC dosage calculator was inhalation, then you know that getting your dose right when its not already “dosed” out for you can be difficult. This rings especially try for dry-herb (better known as flower). You might wonder “how much THC is in a puff from a joint?” or “how much THC should I vape?”.

Below, we have provided guidelines for best estimating your THC consumption when using inhalation methods.

Vape Pen

Vape pens are a healthy and efficient way to dial in your THC Oil dosage. Be sure to source your vape pens from a reputable source. Black-market vapes can cause serious health concerns.

• • Assumption 1: A vape pen contains 0.5g of THC Oil
  • Assumption 2: The THC Oil is at 80% Concentration (400mg THC)
  • Assumption 3: 100 puffs from a 0.5g vape pen
  • Conclusion: 1 puff = 4mg THC

Bowls / Pipes

If you are looking for a sizeable amount of THC in a single puff, dry-herb / flower might be one of your best bets. THC dosage for Bowls and Pipes are given as follows:

• • Assumption 1: A bowl contains 0.3g of flower
  • Assumption 2: 20% THC concentration (60mg THC)
  • Assumption 3: 5 puffs per bowl
  • Conclusion: 1 puff = 12mg THC

Joint / Blunt

Joints and blunts allow for a smaller THC per puff dosage, but typically burn longer and would allow for multiple hits, shared amongst fellow consumers.

• • Assumption 1: A blunt / joint contains 0.5g of flower
  • Assumption 2: 20% THC Concentration (100mg THC)
  • Assumption 3: 30 puffs from a 0.5g blunt / joint.
  • Conclusion: 1 puff = 3.33mg THC

Bong

While consuming THC from a bong might not be the most common approach, it is certainly an effective way to get a maximal dose.

• • Assumption 1: A bong’s bowl contains 0.3g of flower
  • Assumption 2: 20% THC Concentration (60mg THC)
  • Assumption 3: 3 hits from a bong bowl
  • Conclusion: 1 bong hit = 30mg THC

Dabs / Concentrate

Dabbing THC is a clean and effective way to get a sizeable dose. Be sure to follow best dabbing temperature guidance to make sure you don’t lose the other terpenes and trace cannabinoids.

• • Assumption 1: The average dab container contains 0.5g of concentrate
  • Assumption 2: The dab is at 80% THC Concentration (400mg THC)
  • Assumption 3: An average-sized dab (size of a grain of rice) is 25mg (1/20th of the container)
  • Conclusion: 1 dab = 20mg THC

Vaporizer (Dry Flower)

Vaping Dry Flower THC is a bit easier to calculate, since you have more control over temperature. Popular vaping products like the Pax fall into this dosage guidance category.

• • Assumption 1: A vaporizer contains 0.3g of flower
  • Assumption 2: 20% THC Concentration (60mg THC)
  • Assumption 3: 6 puffs from a vaporizer with 0.3g of flower
  • Conclusion: 1 vape hit = 10mg THC
