Guide original pour PA (EN)

Dear Gardeners,

I did a little write up for a customer of GungaDin's who was having trouble dosing his drops, so I wrote this quick guide, and Gunga suggested I post it here in the TEK section. I am not really familar with this part of TMG, so I this is my first post here. If you guys find it helpful, let me know and I will be happy to share any other knowledge that I have. As they say, there is more than one way to skin a cat (in the hat), but this is my method:

Dear F,

If you want to make Liquid LSD drops you would take the amount of crystal (eg. 10mg or 0.01g) then divide it by your desired dosage (I would recommend 50ug or 0.00005g per drop), and this will give you the amount of drops of solvent you will need to add to the bottle. So for example:

200 drops x 50ug crystal
=10mg Crystal

Take your dropper bottle, drop 200 drops of your solvent (a 40% ABV vodka will work fine) into the bottle, add 10mg of crystal to the liquid, and gently vortex the liquid in the bottle until all the crystal dissolves. Now you have 200 drops dosed at 50ug per drop.

50ug is good because you can control dosage more accurately. This is the dosage per drop that I would recommend.

If you are going to be making large batches of dropper bottles, you should note that each type and size of dropper is going to have a different volume of liquid per drop, so all your dropper bottles need to be the same or the dosages will be inaccurate. Again, you will need to take the dropper and count out 200 drops into a bottle. Then you can take a syringe and draw the liquid into the barrel to measure how much you will need per bottle. Now we do some more simple mathematics, for example:

1 bottle = 200 drops = 5ml
20 bottles x 5ml = 100ml

1 bottle = 10mg Crystal
10mg x 20 bottles =200mg Crystal

So now we take 100ml of our solvent, we weigh up 200mg of crystal, we add the crystal to the solvent and vortex until it is dissolved, then we measure out 5ml per bottle using our syringe, and now we have 20 bottles, each with 200 drops, dosed at 50ug per drop.

Note: The numbers above are an EXAMPLE ONLY. You must do your own measurements.

In terms of the solvent, LSD has a higher solubility in H20 than ethanol, so using vodka will allow the crystal to dissolve more easily, and creating higher dose per drop is possible. However, for very long term storage, and we are talking years here, something like Everclear vodka, which comes in 75% and 95% ABV options, would be ideal. It's expensive, but this would be your best choice. Never use tap water, because the chlorine will destroy the LSD, and even distilled water is not really advisable for drops.

Your dropper bottle must be amber glass, as this prevents any harmful UV radiation getting to the LSD and degrading it into ISO-LSD which is neurologically inactive. Also, if you use Everclear be aware that it will evaporate quite quickly if you leave the bottle open and therefore each drop would become a higher dosage, so don't leave the bottle open.

I hope that is of some help to you. Good luck in your ventures. Many thanks.
