Yes.
The same species fresh is more potent than the same dried...referring to Psilocybe.

Is this on a gram by gram basis, or is the same size mushroom stronger when fresh compared to a similar sized dried one?

Good question shakta. It's it noticeably different?
I'm going to eat some this weekend, and if there is a big difference, I simply won't dry them out right now. I've tried using the dose calculator, but I have no idea what a gram is. Rather I tend to just go by the size and number of fresh mushrooms. This creates a small problem though, since now I have all these dried mushrooms that are 1/3 of the size they used to be.

Sounds like you need a scale. You can get a hand postal scale at any home office supply store. Fresh is more potent than dry but you have to take into effect that a dry mush weighs 1/10 of what it did wet. So if you trip off 2 grams dry youl need 20 grams wet(and will have a slightly better experience because there fresh. When I grew hawaiian I foundout it was a non-visual strain. I ate some frresh hawaiian for the first time and saw nothing but visuals. I wish I knew why

i believe fresh are more potent, and they seem to kick in faster, i figure that's because they don't need to rehydrate in your system after you eat them.

actually I think its cause fresh have psilocin that is lost during the drying process

yes there's a lot of confusion about the whole fresh/dry thing. A single fresh shroom is more potent than that same shroom dried, BUT 1g of that shroom dried will be ~8 times a potent as 1g while fresh... capische?
