question about stability of dmt

[anesthetic]

will the potency of DMT degrade over time if left in the natural light or under any light

 

[endlessness]

do you want it to degrade? and if not, why would it be left for long in natural light?

^^I think it's a legit question, end.

what do you mean? Im asking because, while there might be an answer to it (I would guess dmt isnt specially sensitive to light, more to air/oxidation which is no problem, but I dont know if regarding light it was ever really tested), I find weird in the sense that, why would one have his dmt exposed to light? I mean, isnt it simple enough to just put it in a drawer or fridge or dark vial/wrapped in alu foil or whatever ?

Unless it already happened that they for some reason forgot it in the light for too long.. Though if that had happened with me I would vaporize it just the same

I have most of the DMT i've extracted re-Xd into beautiful crystals sitting in a petri dish on my desk, id rather leave them on display as they're beautiful, so i'd like to know if light will degrade it, i think tiny amount of oxygen are getting in as its only a petri dish on top of another one, not necessarily airtight, but it gets exposed to a lot of light

Im more concerned about radiation from the TV/PC monitors than natural light though...

i would never leave it in the light, but i was just wondering if it would degrade over time if i did accidentally for some reason. thanks for the answers

I always store it in the dark, but after lift-off if I'm too incapacitated to put it away, I won't sweat it like the amount of time it spends in the light is gonna do anything. Sometimes I'll even forget it's out, but I don't think it's that big a deal.

it will for sure but we don't know how much..consider that plastic colours and almost everiting that is organic will degrade under light,it could happens in months or years,also wood would change under decades of sunlight, same for plastic
