a 1 gram dry shroom is petty big, at least IME, that means its prob more than 10 grams wet, which would be a fairly big shroom...the average size for me would be about half a gram, id say

I would have to agree with Boomer q, and it's hard to say with the average. I would say about half a gram as well maybe a tiny bit less.

Depends on size and stem thickness. Sometimes you get monster caps, with hollow stems... Sometimes you get little arse kickers wit nickel sized caps and thin stems.... I used to go for the larger sizes in my grows, but I have learned to appreciate the little guys more. If you're going for weight, then grow some EQ on Hpoo. Some of the biggest I have ever seen are from this strain and substrate.

Great little piece for taking cores for cloning..... They are actually for muscle biopsy work, but if you can get one, they are great for taking tissue samples.

Between 1/4oz to 1/2oz dry weight assuming half pint cakes. Dunk and roll to maximize yield.

once you dry them, you may end up with 1/4 to 1/2. If you dunk and roll, probably more.
