sorry if this is the wrong board, but i figured it was the most fitting for my question. 
the other day someone bought (supposedly) 10 grams of mushroom 'powder' for me, but i'm skeptical if it's ten grams. here's a picture of one baggie which is supposed to have 5 grams in it:

what do you think? thanks!

Yeah that looks like 5 grams to me. If you are wondering about my credibility I just ate a 5 gram peanut butter sandwich a couple days ago and it looked just like that.
Although, I'm just going by a regular baggy size, it would help to have some sort of item in the picture for a size relation.
Edit: Well my 5 gram sandwich wasn't 5 grams exactly, it was probably give or take a gram. But if you want my honest opinion if that's not 5 grams, you are probably fairly close.
Your first few times seeing dry mushroom doses look pretty small but in reality they are probably pretty close to what you bought or found or grew.

thanks for the help! alright so here's another picture, and the purple rectangle is me attempting to estimate roughly 3 grams of it to take out to do tonight - do you think that's about 3? sorry that the shrooms are so scattered, but no matter how i tried to arrange them flatly they'd spread awkwardly. 8)

None of the things you are doing can help us estimate the weight of what you have.
You need to invest in a cheap scale.

I just wasted most of my last 10.5 grams of mushrooms last week because I didn't fast. I ate 5 grams one trip and I had barely anything. No visuals, no deep or enlightening feelings. Just a very dizzy and giddy feeling.
Please try to eat on an empty stomach so you don't waste the mushrooms like my stupid self did.

maybe my metabolism is different, but i dont feel like eating effects it much. Once i split an eighth, and my friend had just eaten, and i had an empty stomach. It just hit him 15 or 20 minutes later.

i rarely ever weighed shrooms for my own consumption, just eat half that bag slowly over the peroid of 15 minutes and you are good to go. it is suggested to eat your dose slowly over 15-25 minutes so that your nervous system is not shocked so much by the ingestion of psychoactive mushroom chemicals, but i could never really tell much of any difference with that. if for some reason during the 15 minutes you sense you have eaten too much then stop, and then eat one or two more little mouthfuls for good measure. for real. don't use tea or sandwhichs and banana sundays and all that stuff, when eating shrooms in their natural dried or fresh forms you get to sense the flavor and potency of what you are eating and slowly give yourself time to estimate yourself when you have had enough, and when you do then have a little bit more for good measure. every bag of shrooms has varied potency for various reasons, but i would suggest aiming for half that bag.

yeahh, i ended up sprinkling some on a piece of bread (before i saw your post great), and it was maybe..1/3 of the bag and ended up getting me on the brink of an average trip, so therefore at first it was hell. 8( i felt sick as a dog and was sweating a lot/couldn't regulate temperatures etc, but for the last two hours of the trip approx. it was prettty fun. no real visuals - just a fuzzy body high and the feeling of sinking into your surroundings. in the end it wasn't really worth it, but i still have lots left to share with a bud.

ive tryed judging by looking and tbh it dont work, i took way to much mushrooms trying to do so, i reacomend u get some scales, u can get some half decent ones of ebay from the us for about $20
EDIT: i really wouldnt want something bad happening to you fella
-------------------- my theory: why do we have tolerance? because mother nature created us and shrooms, and she decides when we can see into other realms! and by the sounds of it that one every 2 weeks!
