I have about two ounces of mushrooms and no scale. I want to take two grams. How should I go about finding this without a scale. Any ideas?
 
Eat them all! :D


Nah, here's what you do. You have 2 ounces. Divide them into 2 equal piles. Now each pile is 1 ounce. Take one pile and divide it again to 2 piles. Repeat again, and you have a quarter ounce. Now divide it into 3 piles and you should have approximately 2.33 grams in each pile.
 
I guess you could always make a scale with a pen or pencil, a ruler and a couple of index cards. use a dime as a counter weight (2.268 g).

^ I used to do that for both hash/weed and smack in emergencies. Think a 2p coin here weighs an eighth (may not be though - memory is... erm... ) and a standard ciggy is a £10 bag o' scag's worth. Not much help in this situation but I know that your method works in a pinch cos I've built such contraptions too :)

Works better if you suspend the ruler on a bit of cotton or similar rather than balancing on a pencil. Would need to rig up suspended baskets to do that with mushies though and then you're into proper complicated constructions whilst wasted territory :D

I'd go with Dread's technique or just borrowing any scales from anywhere as the next best option though :)
 
lol so what you're saying is eat the mushrooms and then think up a scale design? I think this is the best option. ;)

This isn't gonna work cause he likely has caps and stems of all different sizes.
I recommend borrowing the scale of a friend or waiting unti you buy your own. :)

edit - :D lol I like Damien's idea about a counterweight but I think it would be hard to pull off
 
Damien you officially have the craziest avatar, you could get lost in that thing!

EDIT: aint nothin better to munch than powdered mushrooms!

MMM gross mushrooms stuck in my teeth :D
 
You could take fresh mushrooms and use a mortar'&pestle to grind them into a sort of putty. Adding a small amount of alcohol should help this. Then you dry that putty until it's rock hard and then grind it into a powder, this way you would get a very uniform and fine powder that you could pack into capsules very tightly.

Yup =D

It is. But it's also much fun trying and soooo satisfying when it finally doesn't all fall off if you're really lucky :D

If you munched a couple of the shroomies you could probably knock up a rough set of scales out of the rest of them if you really put your mind to it =D
 
Yup =D

Lol that sounds like fun :D

I had the fortune of being given some free mushrooms this last week. There was 5g so we split it in 2 even piles. :) I have a scale but didn't have access to it at the moment.
It was a great trip, I got to smoke some bomb hash and watch my friends spin some fire. =D
