How do others measure powdered fungicides for mixing with water? Do you weigh the powder? Or do you use a volume measurement?

I was planing on spraying some Aliette WDG (80%) and Dithane DF(Mancozeb) but couldn't find my small scale. I had planned on weighing it.

Even with dry, I measure in liquid volume. Since the measures are small, I get a clear plastic cup and write my own measures on the outside so I don't have to steal/ruin a measuring spoon/cup. My wife hates that.

I use Dithane 945, it comes in premeasured sachets for mixing with 2.5 litres of water, I don't know what weight the sachets are, but I will have a look next time I am in the patch.
