thanks for the kind comments everyone,

the seeded plant has been harvested, the seeds are ready, i pooped open 3 seed pods and seeds looked perfect and was hard and the right colour, so i harvested the 3 buds, these buds are huge, really fat, would love to smoke them if their smokable, im not sure how the plants disperses its seeds, i dont think the buds would be eater by critters or birds so its not that method, all the seeds ive gotten in bud had to be broken out the bud by using a weed grinder or picking at the buds, so in nature id have to guess at the buds falling on the floor and then the bud is used as some sort of compost,
now thats an idea, would bud that is not smokable make good compost, clearly the seeds dont fall out the buds as some are in the middle of the bud and would not fall out, so its either animals eating the buds which i doubt or it is the buds falling on the floor that spread the buds, this is the most likely way it happens, i can see buds sticking to animals fur and getting spread around that way, but the seeds would not fall out the pods on their own, the buds would need to rot first to enable the seeds to fall out, so for this to happen the buds would be on the floor so i think thats how its done.

right people i got some problems and i need some help.

this new job i got i have got to go and get my uniform and have a drug test on the 8th of next month, now i dont smoke loads of bud i have a couple of spliffs before i go to bed and thats it, so im not smoking loads as you can see, but this drug test im having i need to make sure i pass, so how long would this stop in my system for, im thinking its around 7 days, so jump in and give me a shout so i can make sure i pass this test then ill be starting work.

thats one problem, the next problems are the names of the seeds ive made,

i need a name for this its a female reserva privada sour kush cross with a kiwi seeds male. these seeds are ready, ive planted 1 to check how viable they are, once the others come out the bud ill be wintering them before i plant them, so a day or 2 in the fridge should be ok for this, so i need a name for that one.

now i had my best male give me pollen today, now the male is an ak47 female cross with uk cherry cheese, these seeds where free and they came labled as that, so this strain has no name,

so i got the pollen today and this is what i did
i crossed a female royal queen seeds bluematic with the pollen from a male ak47 cross uk cherry cheese, ( so my problem is that their is 3 strains their, the female is bluematic and the male is ak47 cross uk cherry cheese,) so i need a name to write on the tub once the seeds are collected.

the other i crossed i dont need any help with as i crossed a female ak47 cross uk cherry cheese with a male of the same name, so it does actually need a name and might help with names of the ones above, so its ak47 cross uk cherry cheese, so what would be the best name for this, this strain is not sold in seed banks yet but it will be and its not been given a name yet, it was a stable cross i got from a seed bank and they had not named it at the time,

so its
ak47 x uk cherry cheese (male) cross bluematic ( this is an auto female)
ak47 x uk cherry cheese (male) cross with ak47 cross uk cherry cheese (female)
kiwi seeds (this was a random kiwi seed strain so it could be one of many, so we will just call it kiwi (male) crossed with reserva privada sour kush (female)

so i need 3 names for them crosses and i need as much info on drug testing and how long cannabis is in my system for, i was thinking 7 days but i can stay clean from cannabis from today if need be
 
cannabis will stay in your system for 30 days if you have to pee start smashing down cran berry juice and eatin pickles. that will help flush your system.
there are other things but I dont want to feed you bad info if something I say isnt true. but I know the 30day part for sure.
 
DP,
Congrats on the seeds!! I can say that you will get a ton of answers on the test. Depends on the test. A basic 3 or 5 panel urine test are fairy easy to beat. I have not seen Puri Blend in years but that always worked for me. Possibly Amazon? What I do know that works 100% and I did it once a week for over a year is 100% pure cranberry juice. ( ocean spray but any brand will work ) do not get mixes such as CranApple.

Basically stop taking any substance that will cause issues within 24 to 48 hours before the test. Start drinking a gallon of 100% pure cranberry juice at least 3 hours before the test. Try and finish within 30 minutes of the test but its not crucial. You will want to get 2 or 3 good urination's out before the test. By the time you make it to the test you will be ready to piss again. I have never failed a urine test while using this method. Basically the Juice flushes your system and damn near bypasses your bladder because the juice flows fast through it.

There are other methods that work. There are several tools that can be used ( bag and fake penis ) ( bag and small tube ) etc.... I have used a small bottle in the past tied to my boxer shorts. The urine was from a friend. The pain in the ass was I had to heat it up on the defroster of my car. Once I got in to test I had to wait 20 minutes. This hurt the temp as the sample bottle has a temp strip on it. I barely made the cutoff. I got so nervous about the temp that I added a few drops of my urine and damn if I failed the test. Do not worry about color. The cranberry juice will come out clear. The lab will not say shit about it because it will be tested for authenticity.

Some labs will have a person in the bathroom with you but this is rare now days. The lab will typically ask you too remove all personal effects from your pockets and place them in a locker. They will ask you not to flush the toilet when your done. All of the logistics like these keep me using the Juice method.
 
thanks fish cake, i thought it was 7 days, looks like i best stop now and start drinking plenty of fluids. thanks for the info mate, ill see what others say, i need to pass this test,

so this is what I have read about other things that you can do. so take it with a grain of salt.
#1 try and cut out fatty foods till a couple days beore you have to take the test. if you know when it may be.
also friut and other carb loaded foods then right before you have to take the test eat a bunch of fatty protien laiden foods and plenty of fluids. alot of the fat that you eat will absorb the toxins for a few days till your body absorbs it.
now I have read most of this but it makes sense to me.
just hoping you get that job. sounds like the shizznet:)
 
right, thanks for all the info, here is something i found on the net i just copy n paste it
It depends on how often and how much cannabis a person smokes. It can also even vary in each person from day to day.

Research shows that regular heavy cannabis users get rid of the drug from the body differently from light occasional users. For example:

People who use cannabis less frequently seem to get rid of the drug more quickly.
People who use lots of cannabis regularly store the drug as body fat. It is then released slowly over a long period.

In general, the less cannabis that’s smoked, and the less often it’s smoked, the quicker it leaves the body.

One-off or occasional users are likely to get rid of all cannabis from their system within a few days.

For regular heavy smokers, it takes an average of two weeks to one month for it to leave their system, although it can be longer. Long-term users may still have cannabis in their body two to three months after they last smoked it.


now this is me again, it says on other sites it can be in the system for anything between 3 and 30 days depending on how you take cannabis, it mentioned people injecting it but ive not heard of anyone doing that and i wouldnt be doing that anyway, i only smoke a couple of spliffs a day and these are at night, so ill have a smoke tonight then ill cut it out to make sure its out my system, i know in the past when ive had drug tests that 7 days is about the max its in the system for, and thats for heavy users, and im not a heavy user anymore as i use it for medical reasons now to help with sleep so its not like im smoking it all day every day,

so im thinking 7 days is about the max im looking at, ill give the juice a method and i can drink that every day for a few days, so as long as i drink plenty and piss plenty then i should be ok, i have faked tests in the past but i think ill be ok this time round, ill see how i feel a few days before the test, i might even buy a drug test kit from the chemist and do some urine tests before so then i can see myself whats coming up.

i dont think ive got much to worry about as im not a heavy use anymore, before i smoked all day every day but now i rarely smoke in the day and only smoke 1 or 2 joints before i go to sleep, so if i stop after today or tomorrow then i should be ok.


thanks for the kind words about the seeds, i was thinking the plant would need a week or 2 but clearly their all ready done, and their is no way these seeds would fall out of the buds and sprout so their must be other methods on germination, possibly the buds fall on the floor and rot and release the seeds, or the buds get stuck to animals and they spread that way, but that wont affect me as ill be picking the seeds out and storing them for future use

my plant is to germ several of these seeds and get the best male and female from each batch and then breed them with each other so this should make the strain more stable,

im excited about the bluematic cross with ak47 x uk cherry cheese, i love the cherry cheese and got some nice buds when i flowered one of these off a while back, but now ive crossed it with an auto that grows purple buds then im hoping it gives me some nice results, but ive got a while before i find out,
 
im hoping i can get past this test, ive got plenty of time to get it out my system and as im not a heavy user i should be ok, i really need this job and the pay is brilliant so i cant really mess it up, so ill make tonight my last smoke till after the test, this way i wont feel worried about not passing this test, i should easily pass it if i stop after tonight, ill buy some drug testing kits from my local chemist and see what that says as the tests should be about the same, i dont think they will pay people to do special tests i just think they will be basic piss tests, they wont use mouth swabs as they take to long to process and cost to much so i think it will just be a urine test
 
ive just tried something a bit mad and im super chuffed with the results, i made 2 x 2ltr co2 generators,

normally i use 2 x 2ltr bottles and fill the one with water/sugar and yeast and the other bottle i have plain water in for it to bubble out of then a pipe coming from that bottle and it vents out above my vents.

well i ran out of sugar, so i made a new batch and decided to have a look what i got lying around the kitchen, then i came across to big packs of those sugar tablets, you know the low fat stuff that people on diets use instead of sugar, well i put a shed load of these in the bottle and a bit of normal sugar, then added warm water and yeast and shook it up like crazy, well since putting it in my grow room the thing has gone crazy, its bubbling more than i have ever seen it bubbling, it was bubbling that much that the bottle couldnt take the pressure and started pushing it out around the side of the tubing, so i had to glue the tubing into the lid of the bottle to make sure it kept pushing the co2 into my plain water bottle to be filtered and then pushed into the grow space.

its been going about an hour now and its still bubbling like crazy, normal sugar and yeast never bubbled up this much, so ill keep an eye on it and see how long it bubbles for, normal sugar and yeast goes 3 or 4 days before i have to change the solution, so ill see how long this goes, but by looking at the bubbles it might not last long, but i can keep adding these tablets.

i also found a way of killing these fungus gnats as well, well at night the plants dont take in co2 so i covered one of my pots with a thin plastic bag making sure it was sealed all around the pot, then i poked a small hole and inserted the co2 tube and taped it up, then i left this bubbling away over night and forcing co2 into the pot, when i checked the next day all the gnats where dead, even when i dug around in the compost i found dead maggots or what ever the baby gnats are called, so i took the tube out that pot and left it covered, then i moved onto the next pot and i found it kills them pretty quick as long as the pot is totally covered,

so its a short term fix but i have not seen 1 gnat at all today, normally id be killing them by clapping my hands and squashing them, but ive seen nothing all day, most of my pots where covered with newspaper and sealed to stop them getting in or out so them pots was ok, but i had 2 pots that i could not kill the gnats so when i used this method it killed the lot over night

That is absoluely genius lateral thinking dp
 
Hey DP this is a common occurrence for me with my job......I use pills called "stat flush" its a cleanser that you take 45 minutes before your piss test that gives you a 4 hour window to piss clean, hasn't failed me yet. I don't think its worth your risk to only trust drinking water and cranberry juice to land this job. Are you going to risk your whole future on taking a chance with this test. This is coming from someone who has failed a piss test because I trusted that water and cranberry juice method, had to do rehab to keep my job lol...and for all of you wondering no I didn't have to say "I'm Jared, I'm addicted to marijuana" It was more of a one on one. But my recommendations for you DP is either find a cannabis shop around your area or online and get yourself a cleansing agent ASAP you can get very effective 7 day cleanser for heavy users, whether your a heavy user or not better to do a little over kill here. Might cost you a couple hundred, but its an investment. Another thing I suggest which is a little more tricky but I have successfully done it, is use someone elses pee, you acquire pee first of all, will stay good in fridge for up to a week, (months in the freezer) fill a condom, I double up the condoms in case of breakage, wear you tightest pair of briefs and on your way to the test submerge the condom in a fairly hot container of water, when you get to where you take the test stick the condom under your balls to keep it at perfect temp, then when they make you go pee you'll need to empty your pockets, but keep a safety pin in your sock, poke hole fill sample cup and dispose of empty condom. How much you weigh and your body type play a big factor in how fast you can metabolize thc from your fat cells, chunkier people have a much harder time ridding it from fat cells.
 
A mate did send me a link a while ago as a joke (at least i hope so) for these prosthetic penises that hold urine. I thought they were for some weird golden shower type scenario where men like women with fake dicks to pee on them (the website pretty much markets them along these lines), but it turns out they're actually for passing urine tests. Can't remember what they were called, but I'm sure if you google "fake penis drug test" or something similar you should find the product somewhere amongst the weird and wonderful search results that are likely to come up!
 
so this is what I have read about other things that you can do. so take it with a grain of salt.
#1 try and cut out fatty foods till a couple days beore you have to take the test. if you know when it may be.
also friut and other carb loaded foods then right before you have to take the test eat a bunch of fatty protien laiden foods and plenty of fluids. alot of the fat that you eat will absorb the toxins for a few days till your body absorbs it.
now I have read most of this but it makes sense to me.
just hoping you get that job. sounds like the shizznet:)
This method is more effective if you have several weeks before your test, I wouldn't recommend it with such short notice

And DP smoking a couple spliffs everyday before bed would classify you as a moderate user, occasional users are said to use 3-4 times a week, I've done my homework trust me, I'm off work now because I know I can't pass a piss test, so I took a medical leave to give me time to detox
 
Tell you what though, this drug testing at work really annoys me; I didn't realise it was so common. Thank God my work are a bit more relaxed and I don't have to undergo this sort of scrutiny into my personal life - in my view it's a complete invasion of privacy, and whether or not you smoke pot or enjoy other recreational drugs is absolutely no business of the employer's, it's whether you are fit, able and competent to do the job, not what you do in your spare time outside of work. If you turned up to work high as a kite fair enough, thats a disciplinary issue, but otherwise they should stay out of your private life. It's disgusting.

Sorry, bit of a rant.....

the bad part about it,well in America anyway, is even if your employer doesnt test you. if you are hurt at work severly enough workers compensation will test your blood and if Mj is present you are screwed. no medical bills will be paid or lost wages.
so you always have to keep that in mind. fpr the most part employers do drug tests to keep their wc payments low.wether they care if you smoke or not
 
I agree with you GK, with my job I work for like two weeks and I'm off for a few weeks, then when I go back to work after my time off I usually have to piss test, so for the three weeks I'm not working your telling me I can't smoke my weed? Get fucked, I just use others people's piss or I spend the $130 to get the stat flush pills. There's 5 pills in each bottle, and if you weigh over 200 lbs like myself, you need two bottles, at 56 bucks a pop plus tax it gets pricey but a small price to pay to keep my job and still be able to smoke my home grown meds. Invasion of privacy is an understatement, I think its an invasion of human rights, like you said, if someone comes into work baked out of his tree or drunk that's one thing, but piss tests should be reserved for post accident/incident, at least in oil refineries where I work. Even then I don't think its fair for MJ users because the fact it stays in your system so long! You could a smoked a joint last week and still test positive, they need more accurate ways of determining when last use was. So with these pills you take all 5 (10 if your over 200 lbs) within a 20 minute time frame, you then hammer about a gallon of water and some vitamin b12, then before you take your test you urinate 3 times and your fourth piss will be 100% clean for up to 4-6 hours, its all natural unlike other masking agents its completely undetectable. Contains things like several B vitamins, milk thistle, gentian root extract, cinnamon bark, creatine monhydrate, grape skin and lots of other good stuff. Just Google sarken nutrition stat flush, I recommend it because I have used it several times successfully, don't want to offer advice on anything I've never tried. Here's what it looks like

Also good thing about these pills is if you fail your piss test they are willing to give you a 200% refund, that's how confident they are in their product. :thumb:
 
Never realised it was that draconian in the US regarding drug testing. Suddenly makes the rubbish weather and general petty annoyances where I'm based seem trivial. Only time I've been tested was for life insurance to cover my mortgage - they rocked up one evening at my house and asked for a urine sample. I was livid. Particularly as it was a Monday evening and I'd had rather a good weekend so the timing could have been better. Needless to say they didn't offer me the insurance, which I was quite happy about in the end as after that I didn't want to give the bastards any of my money anyway. My life is my life, and as long as it's not hurting anyone else it's nobody else's business!
