How to tell difference between acid & an RC?

Hey all,

Just wondering, if you were sold A tab of "acid", how many of you think you'd be able to tell the difference between real acid and something bunk just by the effects? Like, if you were actually given 25i on a blotter, do you think you'd be able to tell the difference? Are the RCs more visual? How can you tell?
 
O.o I wasn't asking for an ID
like I said, I was simply wondering how many people would be able to differentiate just from the effects.
 
ehrlich test kit is what you're looking for. I think EZ test just call them lsd test kits
If you think you've got something that isn't LSD, don't buy or don't take.
Lots of drugs can fit on tabs, but the 3 hallucinogens you're more likely to get are lsd, nbome, dox. NBOMe is inactive orally and DOx can last for 24 hours. By simply swallowing the tab, and having effects you can rule out nbome but this is not safe nor may not be 100% reliable.

Just buy test kits, not difficult!
 
Swallow it, dont hold it under your tongue. If its 25i you will experience little if any effects. If its LSD you will trip fine.

Obviously if you want to trip on 25i then this is a problem

It is difficult to distinguish between the two if you have little experience with either. Some say that the visuals from NBOme are more geometric compared to the wavy, flowing visuals of LSD but really this is hard to quantify. Plenty of LSD trips to me at high doses can turn into Lego town so I wouldn't use this as a golden rule.
 
It's still no guarantee that it is LSD. DOx substances are often sold as LSD but like they said above you can usually taste their strong bitter tabs compared to LSD which is pretty much tasteless. Enrich test kits are your best option though
 
there's really no way to tell anymore other than a test kit; more and more potent psychs are hitting the market so unless you are in a close circle with people who synth lsd, i'd be cautious about what you're taking ie. don't eat a ten strip.
 
DOx chems usually have a taste, as well as NBOMe, and was previously stated NBOMe aren't active orally and only sublingually.
There is no real way though, I've had small blotters with no taste and I swallowed them and they weren't lsd.
I could only tell by the visuals taking 3 hours to manifest, as well as the visuals were different, and less powerful than anytime I've had LSD.
 
"if its bitter, its a spitter" i would stick to that motto if you do not want an nbome or a doX.

but even then its still unsure are there a lot of new chems hitting the market every day. i recently say a listing for a (large amount) of AL-LAD!! i would like to try it but would be upset to be sold it as lsd. im curious how this would react to reagents... i think it would fool the ehrlich as it only tests for a inodole

There is so much variation between trips that nobody can reliably tell the difference between LSD and, say, NBOMe just by the quality of the effects. The only way to really know what you took is to test a blotter with an Ehrlich's reagent.

Actually I can tell real LSD based on its effects. I am sure there are many people here who can't though. Part of the problem is 80 mics and 150 mics and 300 mics are all very different trips. N00bs may think its a different chemical.
 
It tastes chemically, similar to the taste you get when you put a paperclip in your mouth lol. Also, it takes 2+ hours to kick in, and if it's in a vile, the liquid is often purple. RC's with unexperienced people who lay the LSD often lay them so that the paper is a lot more rigid.

LSD tastes almost like nothing, if at most you might get an EXTREMELY slight alcoholic taste from the denatured alcohol used to lay the acid. ;)

1mg of 25i doesnt have much of a taste either though and most people sublingual their blotter. Almost all drugs at 1mg will not have much of a taste, or better yet in the microgram range so its going to be really tough to tell by taste.

You can tell it's LSD or not by effects but you'd have to have some experience and if you have that kind of experience, you probably know about the NBOMEs and other thing that can and will be laid on blotter.

i've done plenty of 25i, it tastes like whatever you dissolve it in. It's not bitter like 2c-e because it's such a small amount, the large majority of people do not have the palette to distinguish between such subtleties.
 
i assume any blotter i received will not be "lsd", until tested at home, which can be an issue in a club/concert/festival setting

Well I've never had it dissolved so I guess that was my issue.
I only err insufflated it, and as my tolerance built so did my doses, until the disgusting plastic chemically taste dripped down my throat. Disgusting to say the least
 
Obviously a reagent test is the only way to be sure.

The "if its bitter, its a spitter" rule isn't a good guideline, in my opinion. Tabs with dark ink, like most Hoffman tabs, will be bitter just from that.

The nbome's are usually reported to have a slightly bitter, soapy taste and numb the tongue. One way to rule out nbome's is to immediately swallow the tab instead of holding it in your mouth. This is because your digestive system renders the drug inactive. If you immediately swallow it and you still get high, it's not nbome. This leaves us with dox compounds and other phenethylamines like bromodragonfly. These are usually quite bitter and can take a long time to kick in. They tend to last longer than lsd as well.
 
I believe i could tell without a doubt, but i can't explain how.

And remember, these days, Acid stands to define any blotter psychedelic, and Molly is any crystalline euphoriant basically. Ask for LSD-25 or MDMA when attempting to procure classic acid or molly.
 
^indeed

i've tasted 25i at least and at such a small dose, it's really tough to tell. Besides that, aren't there complexed blotters that absorb orally? I'm sure vendors have figured out how to get them to absorb orally. Even then, the blotter could be any number of chemicals, including al-lad and the future lsd analogues that are sure to come and as well as the other potent psychs that just haven't hit the market yet. It's going to get so diluted.

LSD will never die, the people who've always made LSD, will still make it and it will always be around because it's an amazing psychedelic. Will your average user have access to it in the next 5 years? probably not. Associating LSD with blotter may end up tarnishing LSD's reputation as a fantastic psychedelic if common people come to think all blotter is LSD. The sooner people realize that blotter does not equal LSD, the better the chances are that LSD will still have a flourishing market.

it'll definitely become the case that everyone will have to test their LSD just like MDMA and that sucks because the NA market for MDMA has gone to complete shit over the last 10 years, LSD has seen a slower decline but it's inevitable both are going to end up with the same issues.
