The Golden Age of Lysergamides

LSD-25 what a noble compound. Bred from the hands of Hofmann at a time when experimental research was at its peak. Albert Hofmann single handedly synthesized the ergot friendly compound and accidentally ingested it through trans-dermal contact. Many people around the world are familiar with 4:20 and it's implications it has on weed culture. But, very few know that 4:20 stretches beyond the pot etched fumes of bong smoke.

The Day when Hofmann accidentally dosed acid, otherwise coined as Bicyle Day, has been the driving historical impetus that forever transformed the psychedelic scene forever. That's a bold statement, but it's true. Psychedelic exploration before LSD surfaced was almost non existent on a global scientific scale. Mescaline was in its infancy stages and mushrooms were a long shot from the vast terrains of Mexico. It was LSD that turned on the world. Some would be curious to say why LSD advanced the science of psycho-pharmacology. I would bet it had to do a great deal on the magician up-work of government paid scientist to market and herald its discovery.

But, LSD was not the only problem child to be erected from the scientific beaker. LSD-25 was the looming star to ravish the '70 teens in a frantic Timothy Leary uproar. Others were synthesized but long forgotten about. Sure, perhaps Orange Sunshine made an impact once LSD was regulated and went underground. But, ALD-52 is nothing but a retrospective speculation on a synthesis to negate any illegal wrong doing. Unfortunately, that proposal didn't stand up in court and Sands was sentenced as a result.

Now we hang on precedent of time and history. Now, were pumped full with enough research academia that it would make the most scientific patron lose his mind. We haven't struck gold but we've barreled out 55 gallon drums full of neon encrusted lysergamides. How, did we go from a LSD shortage to vendors offering the most novel LSD analogs on the planet while alluding the law? Orange Sunshine is here for good until the regulatory hammer says different.

This clearly illustrates that research chemicals have become a cash cow and in essence have devalued the price of traditional drug markets. It's more economically feasible to purchase lab grade ALD-52 or 1P-LSD than it is to buy black market LSD. Is this a problem or a solution for those who seek out these transcendental compounds?

LSD is a wildcard. ☯ Intent is everything.
LSD is indeed a wildcard with '25' chromatic identities.

From the beaker it rose like a 3rd grade volcano science project.

The government fueled it but couldn't tame it. It backfired like many of there ill fated attempts to draw in society.

But, LSD is not the only 'Problem Child'. Many are unaware of its cousins that contain the same kind of social and mind expanding qualities. This thread's purpose is to explore the forgotten's and unmask what is to be called the 'Second Summer of Love.'

There is no doubt that LSD is more abundant than it has ever been in the last 20 years. Ever since unperforated WOW hit the market there's been an uptick in generous amounts of pure lysergic.

What I'm curious about is the high flux of LSD due to grey market production of lysergic analogs. Are these same chemicals being diverted to synth true LSD. I know it's difficult to narrow it down - so I'm just speculating out loud to form a hypothetical discussion.

Another point I would like to address is the purchasing of black market product vs. privately synthed lysergic analogs with verified purity. Unless you know the source black market LSD can vary and perhaps be something different altogether. Where lysergic analogs are produced with verified purity most of the time. I'm aware that other research chemicals in the past underwent GCMS test etc.

The dead scene does seem to be quite a trend now a days... Makes sense on this mass flux of Love.

Care to explain the psychological / visual difference between LSD and ALD-52 ? That Orange sunshine.

I assume you know that lysergic acid was a known natural product before Hoffman converted it to the diethyl amide? The part of your comment that disturbs me is the "single handedly synthesized", I'm not even slightly minimizing his discovery, but just want to point out that the root chemical structure was a natural product. See morphine <<<>>> heroin, etc.

Yes, Al I was aware of that.

Sorry, I didn't mention the diethyl amide conversion. It was surely a known natural component before Hofmann tinkered with it. Hence, why its semi-synthetic. LSA is well publicized but how often do you find pure LSA on the black market? That's why I credit Hofmann for rediscovering lysergic acid and branding it as a powerful ally to ward off many of mankind's woes.

HeatlessBBQ: LSD: My Problem Child is a classic in the psychedelic canon but you should try this new source on for size. It blew me away by its poetic depth and written by one of the most famed LSD chemist besides 'Sands' and 'Bear.'

The key word there is "pure"... When I wan an undergrad (T Rex was still roaming the forest) there was a kilo of ~95% LSA in the university Chemistry Department stock room! That's quite a bit of starting material. So much has changed since those days.

Seems like you been around the block.

There are only a couple of University's that I know that synth LSA and its derivatives legally. By that I mean exempted from the Draconian laws of the DEA. Usually, the ones who do synthesize it synth it in very small amounts and keep a tight log on its production.

It was so long ago, they just lost track of having it. I found it and made sure it moved to a place where it could be given proper respect.

Around the block - lol ! The tires have gone flat!

Merry Christmas and a happy buzz year !
