100-150 grams fresh is my guess.

Mushrooms average %93 water weight when fresh. Fresh weight * .93 = Average water content. Fresh - Water weight = Average dry weight.

f * .93 = w
f - w = dw

If I'm wrong please correct me.

Close enough at approx. 90% moisture. Basically dried it's 1/10th of what it weighed fresh, but there are many variables. On the extreme end I've collected matured P. cubensis that only lost 20% of it's dried weight. If someone grew them and they sat around for a while they lose some moisture but not all, which is why for accuracy it's best to weigh collections asap after they are picked or after completely drying them out, preferably the latter.
