VISUAL difference in mass between wet & dry shrooms

I've shroomed a few times. Never did less than an 1/8 ounce. To me, it looks like the same amount of physical mass that would be in a baggy with an 1/8 of weed. Basically, the bottom 1/2 inch of the bag is the product.
I'm growing cubensis right now and I'd like to try a wet trip. How can I get a good feel for the equivalent amount to a dry 1/8th? Should I just throw a few shrooms in a bag until the bottom 1/2 inch is filled up?
Also, if someone could post pictures of a wet shroom with weight next to it and the same mushroom after being dried with the weight showing.
Thanks.

And not all dry shrooms weigh the same. Get a scale to help out

Dries to about 1.7g--a half eighth. Two of these, fresh, plus a dwarf or two (30-40g) would resemble the dose of one dried eighth.

they definately weigh in heavy and lose lots of weight and size after drying... personally I hate eating fresh shrooms but i can understand the desire to eat fresh because I had it at one point too... I suggest maybe if you think you have a grasp on what a dry eighth looks like just dry them... I gag every time I eat fresh... they are harsh...

Dude, you guys think I'm retarded. lol!
I know they dry to be smaller than they are than wet.
I am getting a scale. It should be coming in the mail any day now.
My shrooms have not even started fruiting yet. They'll be in incubation yet for another week or two.
I liked the picture of the shroom on the scale with the chapstick behind it. But do you have the same shroom but only dried in a picture?

Do you guys find a pattern with how they shrink with size? Like do they shrink more when smaller or when bigger? etc...

This:
was this: (the one in the same area... bottom left coroner)
and only weighed 3.5g exactly on my scale but you will have to take my word on that because my camera died taking the dry pic... I also didnt weigh that bitch when it was wet...

Consider that one dried to be the approximate length of the chapstick, half its diameter, with a cap twice its diameter.

What strain were you using? If that was only an 1/8, you must have been using a PUNY strain.
How much did you get form the next flushes?

just for future reference, they dry to 1/10 to 1/12 of the wet weight. smaller ones lose less weight than larger ones. pins=1/10, full size mush= 1/12
