LSD storing question

[justinsane]

hey all, i took acid last night for the first time, and it was amazing. and its pretty rare where im from,,... so im wondering.

i want to buy 2 hits and save them until im ready to trip again, i heard it doenst have much of a shelf life if its dry.

so theres my theory, what if i put like 5 drops of water in a vile, then put the 2 hits of acid in there, will i be able to store it for a month at least?

Wrap your tabs up nicely in plastic wrap, then put that in a brown bag and put that brown bag in the freezer. It'll stay good forever ... well, not forever, but it'll work a shitload better then adding drops of water to the tab itself...

thats the thing though, i dont have any tabs, my dealer just has the liquid

Why not put it on paper, as in "blotter"? If the guy knows acid, this should be fairly simple to do. If not, use a sugar cube or saccharine.

I don't remember anything about freezing it, but I think that it can be done.

We kept ours in tin-foil, in the back of the fridge. That stuff lasted a long time, and was just as strong the next time we took it.

Any methods to keeping LSD "fresh" that doesn't require refrigeration or freezing? I can't really put LSD into my refrigerator without my parents finding it.

Q: How long does blotter LSD last? Is wrapping it in foil and putting it in the freezer a reasonable storage method?

A: The primary catalysts for the decomposition of LSD are heat, light, oxygen, and moisture. LSD's shelf life can be significantly extended if exposure to these are minimized.

Air & Light
Keeping LSD in an air and light proof container is the most important step. A good option is a dark amber glass container kept somewhere cool. Remember, most plastic (plastic bags) is not air tight, though it's a lot better than nothing. Likewise, keeping blotter in foil isn't going to stop air transfer, but it's also better than nothing. If glass isn't available, a combination of foil and plastic would be more effective than either one alone.

Temperature
LSD will degrade even at room temperature, but the hotter the temperature and the longer it is stored in a hot location, the more it will degrade. At room temperature, degredation is quite slow, so a cool room, out of the sun is generally enough to minimize break-down. Storing blotter in the refrigerator or freezer is fine, but is probably unnecessary.

Moisture
If blotter is stored somewhere cold (as opposed to cool), it should be allowed to return to room temperature before being opened as this will prevent condensation from forming. Also, if the weather is extremely humid, storing LSD with a little bit of dessicant (drying agent), can ensure that it stays dry.

If these storage methods are followed, blotter should last for many years. Foil in the freezer is a common storage method, and should be effective at keeping degradation to a minimum for a few years.
