how many mushies???

#599981 - 04/05/02 07:12 PM (21 years, 2 months ago)

This may be a lame question, but hey i'm new :>) I know this is going to be a VERY generalized answer, but thats all I'm asking. I know when the time comes I'm going to need a scale, but for now I'll be happy with some generalizations. About how many mushies are in the average 3 gram dose. For my purposes I'm talking about EQs or PRs.... So.. basically I'm asking about how many average size mushies it may be .

Hi there.. I know you were prolly expecting a reply like this, but..... ALL mushies grow different sizes and DENSITIES! how dense the little guy is pretty important, as dried or not, it's going to be heavier/lighter than others of the same 'size'.
I don't have accurite scales, so I made some! :-)
I made a semi heavy beam, about 30cm long and and made a whole in the middle, through which I put an oiled up nail... (like lady justice).
the nail has to be driven into something quite un-moveable..then I draw a dead strait line towads the ground from the nail, and ......shit.. I'll post a picture..
Basically my idea revolves around the weight of water... Physics tells us that 1cc of water weighs 1 gram!!
so if you have two plastic cups on either end of the beam, you can put your mushies in one cup, and use a syringe to measure the weight! As the syringe is calibrated with cc's, on the side, when you squirt 1cc of water into the cup, thats one gram! You keep squirting measured amounts of water into the cup until the beam becomes level again! The amount of h20 you squirted in, is the weight of the other end! (the mushies!!!)
Sorry about the shitty pic.. but U understand what I mean... I hope.... :-)

I have had quite acurite measurements with this set up, and it hasn't cost me 100 bucks. Margin for error comes down to how you go about building the scale.
I dunno if anyone else has thought of this before, but I thought it was worth a try.
Might be more than you were looking for Duplicity, but worth a try anyway..
Peace, and good luck.
Mr.Jingles.
