Hey guys. I made a big mistake. I'm on probation and I smoked a couple bowls over the weekend. I go to my PO on March 20th and I'm pretty sure I can pass a home test bye then, but I was wandering If I pass a home test will I still pass the PO's test?
If you pass your home test using your first void of the day (The dirtiest) you should be good to go on the PO test.
EDIT: It will be much easier to tell what kind of chance you have to be legitimately clean if you tell us your previous smoking habits (in the past month/year) as well as your height, weight, and excercise habits.
Home tests are just as accurate as probation tests as far as THC detection goes. The only difference lies in the fact that home tests can be fooled by water loading much easier.
PO tests as well as drug tests for employment check for specific things in urine to determine it's validity. Primarily they test for creatine levels, PH, temperature, and specific gravity.
That is why it is much easier to fool a home test by just water loading your system, whereas if you take a test with your PO additional preparations must be made in order to dillute correctly and still have all of the other things they test for stay in check.
I'll say this again like i've said to so many others here. Do not risk smoking on probation, just roll with the punches and smoke when you get off probation.
If you decide against taking this advice then your only option would be the dillution method because it is very tricky to substitute during a PO test (they are monitored).
To address your immediate concerns, I would recommend getting a home test and testing yourself a few days before you meet with your probation officer to see where you stand (if you are still pissing dirty) And if that is the case then Follow the dillution sticky at the top of the forum.
If you have any further questions there are many regulars on this board who are far more knowledgable than I and will be able to assist you. If no one has gotten back to you I will be back in a few hours to answer any additional questions or concerns you may have.
Well,I smoked last weekend and the weekend before that. So I smoked a weekend and was clean a week then smoked friday and have been clean ever since. So i've been clean for about 4 days and I have 10 days before the test. So, that gives me 14 days of being clean. I hadn't smoked before the first weekend since Christmas.
Oh yea, I'm 5"9 and about 125 pounds.
You actually stand an excellent chance of passing your test. You have a lot of things going for you such as a low body fat, high metabolism, and your smoking history is not too shabby.
Now do not take that as an open invite to smoke longer, you need to keep clean up until the day of your test, no more weekend bong rips.
Read over the dilution sticky here:

Read the thread in its entirety because the technique involved has undergone changes since the original post. Do not delay reading it until the day of your test because a lot of the preparations take more than a day to complete.
My quick advice to you would be to excersize for the next few days (stopping at about 3 days before your test) and eat a high fiber diet to help clean you out faster.
Otherwise just read over the dilution sticky and if you have additional questions feel free to post back and i'll see what I can do.
Going to bed for now, will check back in the morning.
EDIT: Also it is worth mentioning, a common misconception with drug tests is that drinking a llot of water days before your test will help flush all the THC out of your system. This is completely untrue and does nothing to help get you clean faster. Just keep yourself hydrated like a healthy person would and don't over do it. Drinking lots of fluids only really comes into play the day of the test.
Yea, but trying to dilute my urine makes me very nervous. I'm still very afraid I'll mess it up some how. I was kinda hoping it would just be out of my system, but if thats what i got to do I better do a few practice runs. Thanx for the help tho, much appriciated.Quote:

ahh ok cool. I feel alot better about this. I hope i can make it through this month and just wait it out. Its definitely not worth the stress at all.Quote:

And depending on your area if you stay good they will let you off early. I'm looking at a year early release off a 24 month probation sentence so I got a huge incentive to just stay out of trouble and not risk it.
Yea, I was thinking that too. I only have a misdemeanor DWI charge so I only have six months, but as long as i stay good I will probably be put on unsupervised probation in 2 months or so.Quote:
