can you determine potency of blotter by weight?
    #18533875 -

okay, say you had gotten a sheet

then went wherever blotter paper is sold, matched the sheet to the paper, cut the paper to the exact dimensions of the sheet

k ya with me?

then weigh the un-dipped blotter....tare the scale

then weight the dipped blotter

a mg scale should be able to tell you how much shit is actually in/on the paper

say you come up with 10mg, then it would be safe to say your hits are 100ug correct?

is this possible? or is the blotter paper not made uniformly enough to actually work?

Plunge your penis into the glass of water and measure how much is left. The less is left, the greater the volume of your cock.

I think The blotter picks up dust from the air and stuff to the point where 10mg extra on a sheet wouldnt be accuratly measuarable

100 mcg != 10mg.


1000 mcg= 1mg. Right?
Or am I just a dumbass.



Either way, no it won't work a spe of dust can off the weight too much like sheekle said

1mg is 0.001g. 1µg is 0.00001g. If your scale can measure mg, it can read 4 significant digits. To accurately measure µg, you need to be able to measure the mass to 6 significant digits.

Basically, if you use a mg scale to measure micrograms, you have no way of knowing the difference between a piece of paper that contains 0.0001g (100µg) and a piece of paper that contains 0.00001g (10µg).

In fact, both of those measurements would have to be rounded to four significant digits. That means that both your 100µg and 10µg measurements would read as 0.000g.

Technically, you could measure 1,000µg, but you would still have the same accuracy problem. When your scale reads 0.001g it could mean anything between 0.0005g and 0.001g, and that's only if your scale works perfectly. It doesn't.

He's talking about weighing the whole sheet. A sheet of 100 100ug blotters would theoretically weigh 10mg more than a sheet without lsd.

Suppose your entire sheet weighs something like 10g, then you're trying to measure a 10mg difference, which is a 0.1% difference.

Because if you just happen to have a marginally thinner patch in one of the sheets of paper, that will fuck up your measurement. Or if you cut just half a millimeter off the line you had intended to cut at, so you end up with just slightly different sized pieces of paper.

This is of course in addition to the problems already pointed out, such as the paper or blotter picking up contamination from the environment (weighing it down) and the inherent difficulty of accurately measuring such minute differences in weight.

Your idea will work...but only on paper (pun intended).

I might be completely wrong but it's not 100% LSD on a piece of blotter right? Isn't it diluted with something like Everclear or water, in which case you could drop 500ug on a blotter but only 100ug would be LSD. If that is true, then the weight of the sheet would be irrelevant.

yes but the carrier evaporates leaving only lsd

Too many variables in the experiment in my opinion.

yeah i guess maybe the paper isnt made uniformly enough :shrug: in theory i dont understand why it wouldnt tho if the paper was in fact made within a small enough tolerance

Humidity for one.  There's a TON of environmental factors that would stop this from working.

if both of the papers are kept at the same humidity that takes that factor out

This is the same reason you can't hit the exact same spot with a bullet twice (realistically)

Even in perfect conditions, with no wind, and a laser pointer, human error and machine imperfection will outweigh your efforts of precision.

Same issue here.

The oils from touching your finger onto the paper, or the person who touched the paper before you got it, or dust in the air, etc, etc.  Paper may not evenly soak up humidity.  Any deformity in the paper at ALL would throw off your calculations massively.
