LSD

How is it made?

Most dealers will put drops of the liquid onto sheets sheets of absorbant paper with small design printed onto them, and then cut and sell the small squares.

The crystals are then made into a liquid and are distributed for sale.

A lot of it comes in crystalized form, made in illegal drug labs.

It is made from lysergic acid, found in the ergot fungus that grows on rye and other grains.
