LSD Degrading as it dries?

I'm sorry I didn't make my question clear the first time and I'm sorry if by making another thread like this I am a nuisance. To restate my question, do you think drying LSD on sweet tarts in the middle of a breezy park at night while occasionally putting cell phone light (very low frequency) over it would have degraded it? It was supposed 90-100ug per drop. It turned out clean but very week.
 
exposure to oxygen and light degrades LSD.
lsd-25 is one of the most annoying chems to work with as it is so fucking instable.
once again, a nightmare to keep from degrading.
next time, drop onto watercolour paper, or into a marshmallow (make a wee deep hole, drop, then smoosh closed at the top of the hole)

sweet tarts and pez hits are usually dosed then frozen, in my experience.
 
There are many things that could have attributed to its degradation.

Having it out in open air for too long
Having it out in heat for too long
Exposing light to it for too long

Or it could just be weak L and you were lied to.
(A sad, but never ended posibility in the drug game)

In the future, choose a better item to drop the L on. Sugar cubes, marshmallows, or crackers work best (that is, if you dont want to get art paper for it [120lb], which would be best as sugar degrades faster)

The problem with sweet tarts, or any candy like it (pez come to mind) is that they're not all that absorbant, so it definitely takes longer to dry the LSD.

You dont need to keep them out for a while for them to dry. Ive found that keeping them out for only a few minutes will get them to where you want them to be, and then wrapping them in foil and double bagging them (getting as much air out as humanly possible [or, if you can, vacuum seal it]), and then sticking it (preferabbly in an amber vial) in the freezer or fridge. I suggest the fridge as theres less chance of getting any form of liquid in there.
 
I find that the best place to store liquid LSD (or even blotter for that matter) is under my tongue. I usually have little-to-no problems with it degrading under there, as my tongue protects the LSD incredibly well from oxygen, heat and light.
 
LSD comes as one of two possible salts, maleate or tartrate. I thought that the maleate salt was used for liquid, and that it degrades faster in open air, so they use the tartrate for blotter. Maybe that's why the hits came out weak. I'm not sure if what I wrote is correct, but I thought I had read or heard that somewhere.
 
Thank you all, you have all been very helpful. It was definitely the prolonged oxygen and light exposure due to poor choice of a medium to put it on. We had it sitting in the breeze for over 20+ minutes on sweet tarts, then walking back home while they were drying on foil in our hands. For next time I thought of storing it on in an Oreo.

If on the next run it really turns out to be weak (though clean), it's pretty easy to walk around the city over and find bomb hooks.

~ Update:

That being said, I have succeeded. :)

Oh, and I was given LSD-free blotter paper. Useful for any other time I run into liquid.

Oh I wasn't asking for an actual location. I was just saying that I don't think there's anyone standing on street corners with LSD in my neighborhood.

Lol its cool I was just being wary. But yeah there's pretty much one location nearby where you will be offered everything from all forms of weed to Psilocybin, LSD, and opium. There was even 5-MeO-AMT going around last summer.
