Why do you weight small amount of something?

I tried to weight 5 gr of salt and it gives me completely different result with the same amount

I just add and then divide in half if possible. I had to do that with yeast. I also own multiple scales and one is good to measure out to the tenth of a gram. you could always go that route. you can find those types of scales at any pawn shop for really cheap or just order one online.

Sorry, I don't get it.
What do you mean?

You put 10 gr, weight, then remove the half?

measure out twice as much ingredients and then divide it with a dough scraper or something

Look up what a tsp of the specific spice/herb weighs and then check what the kitchen scale says.

Spend $10 on a small scale with better resolution.

You need a little spice scale. It seems silly when you already have a kitchen scale for baking, but it's great for yeast, salt, etc.
