Help needed in eyeballing my dose

Grr damn! Gotta trip tomorrow morning for the first time on mushrooms,and the guy that had the scale just left for a week in the other side of the country with his work. WRONG TIMING.
Anyway I`m not going to let this stop my experience. Therefore,I am calling for your help in eyeballing the dose.I have dried my mushrooms,yet I am going to post a photo from harvest. You can use the papertowel`s size to aid in measuring the mushrooms lenght. 
Sorry for the trouble,yet I really have the next day planned out and I have no idea how many doses are in here. I want two 2g-2,5g dried doses for me and a friend. If I have less than that,it`s not a problem,I could lemontek them.Yet,I am worried about having a little more,and I don`t want to start my trip with the anxiety that I took too much.
Please help

Just split that harvest in half. You eat half and your buddy eat the other half. You'll be fine.
Enjoy

Yeah I would love to do that if it was not my first time:p Never done any trypt before,so I don`t have any expectations from the trip. I just want to be on the `safe` side.If anyone could help me with an aproximation I would be thankfull 
Well it is a standard size bathroom paper towel over there,I thought that you guys could use that as measuring

Tea. Would recommend eating lightly 02:00 before drinking. 23 mushrooms dry(optional, can be fresh as well) dice, soak in bowl with 2-3 table spoons lemon juice 00:15. boil water 2 coffee cups worth. Add tea bags(i like green tea for this) 05:00 to boiling water. 2 bags makes 2 cups. remove teabags, add fresh diced ginger and mint leaves. bring to boil 03:00, remove from heat. strain mint leaves and ginger out quickly then dump your tea while still hot onto your diced mushrooms that have soaked lemon juice for 00:15. let it sit covered for 00:05. strain the mushrooms out and divide into 2 cups. You now both have an equal dose. drink and expect onset by 00:15 with a peak around 01:30
11.5 mushrooms will probably be a tier 4 or 5 trip. you should buy your self some scales. srsly. no srsly.

you can take a sandwich baggy, I'm assuming you have those around. & put some mushrooms in the baggy.
Now take the open end & place the lip of it (the part you'd normally fold over) & stick that to your tongue & let it hang. If it sticks for about a second it's 3.5 if it falls really quick, you're way over. If it takes a really long time, you're way under...
Paper towels don't help as a reference...

Given that info I should retrace my idea to make two cups of tea and make 3 and invite a 3rd friend. I dont always eat cubes, but when i do, I prefer a green tea lemon mint ginger infusion. Drink responsibly. Stay thirty my friends.

Ok I am really confused now ) Thanks for the answers guys! I will assume that there it is no way that this harvest weighted over 100g fresh,that means aprox 10g dried.Therefore I am dividing this harvest in four,eating only 1/4. Gonna wait 1:25 for peak,then if it is not `there` gonna eat another 1/8 or so. Hope will turn out right!

You like that method? When I was younger, I use to get some weed from a guy that would weigh all his bags like that. Believe it or not, they got so good @ it, they started doing 1/4s & 1/2s...it was a little ridiculous, but it always weighed out...
GL Damkina...Just eat 1/3 of it...You can't go by that 10% rule, it varies...sometimes it's more like 8% & other times it's like 12%...10% is just an average...

I could guesstimating it to be between 10 and 15 grams dry. depends if stems are hollow. srsly. go buy a scale. if you buy one your self you will have it when u need it next time. and the time after that. and after that. this isn't going to be the last time u need a scale.

Take half of them from the get go. They don't look all that huge or completely dry.
