I didn't know people had lost their licenses over a road side test. That's fukked up I didn't think they had the tech yet....especially with MJ being happy in our systems for like a month or so.....

Yeah I doubted it too as they'd only caught a couple out of 30+ busts but I did definitely see it in our local paper and on the radio. I reckon 90% would get away with it but at Xmas they put traps up and pull folks off the motorways. Mostly for the drink drivers though.

It sounds like we are having similar problems Don. I'm at seven weeks tomorrow and I didn't put the cages on before I flowered and by two weeks it was too late. Didn't take all the lower crap off either so it's a total mess. I've not gone to feed them a few times and the next day they've been really wilted to the point of two of them had fallen over but the pot was upright. It's hard work hand feeding. It's by far the worst grow I've ever done and it's all down to me not having the time to do the work needed ffs

Cheers Fumble!

Funny I was just saying to my gf this am I was a bit disappointed with this run but it's not done yet so i'll see. I think using the bonzai mothers with loads fo shoots on was an error I should have gone for another round of snips off them first but whatevs. tis what it is.

They have a new mouth swab test kit in the UK for roadside traffic checks launched this last Xmas that can detect weed. It mostly caught out people driving on cocaine but two lost licenses for just weed in their blood systems.

Who drives coked up ffs.

And lol at mouthswap.

I looked into that mouth swap test as soon as I heard about it a couple of years ago (while it was still in development), there's 3 company's make them but they're all similar.

It's like a swabbed pregnancy test for weed residue, very very basic tech.
Different tests for different stuff. Coke is one test, cannabinoids another.


I'm not sure exactly how the Coke test works because it doesn't really concern me but I spent serious time researching the Cannabis test.
It can't detect systemic THC like a urine test can, it only detects residues left in your mouth up to a certain amount of time after smoking (along the lines of 3-5 hours I think) and even then it's efficacy is patchy at best (30% ish).

All they know then is that you have consumed within a certain time frame of driving, that's it.
Proving impairment to drive is a different matter, there's no framework set up for prosecution to partner them, these test kits are pitched privately to the cops by the firms that make them, I think the main one started off as a kickstarter project ffs.



Alcohol fucks it right up though cos it washes away the trace amounts of non water soluble THC stuck to the inside of your mouth.

High alcohol content mouthwash is your answer, Listerine is the strongest at about 97-98% ethanol.
A good swill of strong mouthwash before you leave the house to drive and there should be nothing to worry about.



You may fail a road side alcohol breath test on the flip side to that though. :lol:

Mines eight today and I'm fairly sure you flowered yours before me.
Mine is an absolute fiasco. I Just haven't the time to do them justice.
It's so much more work hand feeding. Watering separate pots and mixing up nutrients everyday.
I Think I'll be going back to NFT if the taste isn't noticeably better. It will have to be a LOT better to make me do this much work again.

image.jpg I bumped into a mate that owed me a favour today. He said he had some good pills and would drop a few round this evening. I assumed he was full of crap like usual but at 7:30 there was a knock on the door and he gave me five of these. I ain't got work tomorrow so I thought I'd give half a try lol
If they are the same as the last ones I was kindly given I should be getting some crap of my mrs in the morning when she comes down stairs to find a gurning moron lol
I know me and half will turn into a few lol

I don't think those silver bars are the same as the other ones I had.
Yesterday afternoon was very odd. I nodded off on the sofa and when I woke up but before I opened my eyes I had massive dinosaur hands(that only makes sense to me) Also my eyesight was fucked everything was so blurry I couldn't read anything. I kept hearing whispering too. I've ordered a testing kit with a few different tests to see if there is owt dodgy in them. Oh yeah and my pupils were still enormous until I went to bed. The pills seemed good it was the next day that was odd. I didn't feel rough though.
