Psilocybe Subaeruginosa

Hey, I recently found quite a few subs in a park next to a friends house, we picked them and just left them in a bag, fresh. That night a friend and I tripped on 13g fresh each, which was about 4 medium sized mushrooms.
Since then I have dried the mushrooms out, and weighed up the whole lot. If I am not mistaken mushrooms are 90% water and should be weighed up to 1/10th of the weight dry:wet. 1g of my dried subs equal out to be like 10 mushrooms.
The night I tripped on the fresh subs I had a decent trip, good visuals for a few hours with a steady peak. The question is, should I be taking the same amount of shrooms quantity wise, or weight wise?
If I take 10 mushrooms dried, I'm afraid of the trip being 2x as intensive as my other trip where I only ate 4 mushrooms...

I don't have scales, so go by the count.
I had seven fresh ones recently and tripped nicely. Nearly 2 weeks later I thought I'd take 10 dried (an extra 3 to counter any loss from the drying process). I tripped a lot more on 10 dried ones than seven fresh. No problem of course I loved it, but I'd say take the same amount of dried as you would fresh for a start, but maybe add one more for luck.
Enjoy!

If 10% of 13g fresh is 1.3g dry (and you tripped fine) and that's only 4 mushrooms, how do you get 1g dry being 10 mushrooms?
Don't but too much value on the 90% thing, its a really really rough guide. I think i had ... 360g wet and they turned out to be 42g dry.
If you dry them quickly without heat you'll be surprised at how much potency they retain, i wouldn't go too nuts.

Thats is exactly what I'm confused about... Should I go by the weight wet or dry? To be more specific I fan dried them for 30 hours then put them in a desiccant, they're still in there now being their 2nd day.
