Does this sound like a good way to pass a test?
Hey all....I'm conducting a little experiment of my own that I'd like to run by some of you all. I found out I have to take a drug test to get into school (AFTER I had a big blow-out last weekend w/my friends). After 6 days, I tried the dilution process (nearly a gallon of water) with one of those "At Home Drug Test" kits that you get at Walgreens (I think it's made by Med4Home or something like that). I don't know how accurate these tests really are, but according to the booklet, it says that even a very faint line indicates a negative result. I took the test, and there was a very, VERY faint line on the test stick, so according to the book, I should be okay.
I didn't really trust this result, so a friend of mine found an online service where you can order up your own test at one of the Labcorp testing facilities (no doctor's order required). You pay for the test in advance ($55) and they email you a lab form that you take to the testing facility. You can use an alias and they aren't supposed to ask you for ID or personal information, as there is no chain of custody required for samples from this company, so it should be completely anonymous. I got up this morning and drank over a gallon of water, 3 cups of tea, 2 cups of coffee, plus 14 oz of beef broth (to try and add some protein/creatine to the urine sample). I peed before I left the house and it was very clear, so I put a couple drops of yellow food color on the underside of my "urinary appendage" and dried it using a hair dryer (even though I normally shave my head, I still have one for putting on that shrink-wrap window insulation in the winter time).
I was not observed at the facility, and after filling the cup, I dipped the end of my "urinary appendage" in the urine to reconstitute just enough food coloring to color the sample a decent shade of yellow. I should get the results tomorrow or the next day, which I will report back on. Keep in mind, this test was a "trial" test for my own information, before I take the actual test for school, so even if it comes back positive, nobody should know but me.
Does anybody reading this have any faith that this might actually work? I just found this site about a half hour ago (which is fantastic, by the way...never knew there was such a thing), and I've already seen a couple other suggestions on here that I would like to try also. I hate the thought of having to give up my favorite vice to attend school, but those are the rules, and until we can finally get it legalized, I guess that's a decision I will have to make.
More to come....thanks for any input.

Its probably going to end up as dilluted. For coloring use the B complex vitamin. Read the dillution sticky and follow that so you can get the ph and specific gravity right otherwise you'll end up with a dilluted test.

Agreed...I've been reading other posts here for the last couple of hours, and a lot of this makes tremendous sense. This test was mostly just to see if I could dilute the urine enough to where the THC metabolites wouldn't show up within the testing range...I still have some time to work on getting the color, gravity, pH and other levels right.
Thank you!:smokin:

You should probably just sub instead hun.
A lot easier you know.

No it doesn't sound like a good method. You have already spent $70 which would have bought you 2 bottles of Quick Fix.
A gallon of water, sounds like negative dilute is a good possibility.
Your beef broth was pretty useless. Color doesn't matter.
Does this sound like a good way to pass a test?
Yes, I know, and that would be my preferred way to go. But unfortunately, all my friends are weedheads too, so I don't know anybody I could even ask to sub for me. The people I know whose systems are clean enough TO sub would be aghast if I asked them to pee into a jar for me.

But can't they tell if you're using synthetic urine? I had heard that they can tell if you sub with synthetic stuff.
I'm sure it will mostly likely show as a negative dilute, but as I said in a later post, I'm just testing to see if the THC levels are low enough...I will work on getting the creatine and other levels up with some of the suggestions I've read in other threads after that post.
The beef broth wasn't to change the color, it was to add some creatine and stuff into the mix. Now, after reading through other posts, I see that the Gatorade and stuff is much better.

I'd listen to what FBR has to say.
He didn't get the title of Drug Testing Guru for nothing.

They can't tell if it's synthetic urine. QuickFix works, they upgrade their formula now and then to keep up with drug testing technology.

Its useless to take in creatine on the day of your U/A. It takes 2-3 days for creatine to metabolize into creatinine.
Creatinine levels are what the labs test for. Not creatine.

Thanks everyone for your input, I appreciate it.

I know exactly why you were trying to drink beef broth and it wasn't for color. My two sentences about beef brother being useless and color doesn't matter are separate and independent of each other. Hopefully you can tell from my posts that I know that drinking beef broth isn't going to turn urine a broth color urine color or any other color. It is actually insulting for you to think that I believed you were drinking broth to change the color of your urine. I know there are people who believe your body doesn't metabolize things and if you drink a coke then your urine will turn black but I'm not one of them. Like Burnt Toast told you, creatine takes time to metabolize into creatinine and that's why it is useless to try to raise it through things you do the day of the test. I just wasn't going to spoon feed you the answer since it is asked and answered over and over here. Also, they don't test urine for protein during a drug test and you should have no protein or close to that in your urine other than a small amount of creatinine. Protein in the urine is a sign of disease, usually kidney disease.
I also understand that you wanted to see if it was possible to lower your THC and then you are going to go back and try to add things to your urine. I can't even begin to explain how backwards this is because it is not an accurate way to know if you over dilute then try to adjust it and expect the same results later after adjusting.

I apologize, I totally didn't mean for it to come across that way, and I certainly didn't mean to be insulting; I just wanted to clarify that I knew it wouldn't have any effect on the color either. :smokin: I've been reading a lot of your posts and you certainly do know your stuff, no question in my mind, and I wasn't implying anything like that, I promise. I'm amazed at how much research you've done on this topic, and a lot of noobs on here owe you a real pat on the back. So let me go on record that I apologize most humbly if I said anything that offended you, or anyone else on the board. It was totally accidental. :thumbsup:
By the way, I got my results back just a few moments ago, and I did get a negative result! So at least I feel comfortable that my metabolite level has dropped and is capable of being diluted if I need to, that's all I was looking to find out by this experiment. Prior to this past summer, I was a very heavy smoker, 5-7 bowls of KB a day for over 12 years, and my body type is heavy, so I was concerned that the concentration would be too strong to dilute under any circumstances. I was pretty good at abstaining over the summer, but this was just a little too close to the real test for me to feel comfortable. Obviously, subbing would be better, and if I can find a way to do that, I will...dilution is just my backup plan.
A big thank you to everyone here, especially FakeBoobsRule, for the advice! I appreciate it. Once the test is safely behind me and I'm admitted to medical school, you're all invited over to my house...my best friend grows it legally and he's got medical-grade!
Much appreciated!

I can't help but wonder what your smoking history was for the previous 30 days?

It was minimal, about 9 hits on a vaporizer w/some of my buddy's good medical grade stuff, but that was about it. I knew something was coming and wanted to give myself the best chance of being clean.
However, I am pleased to report that my test came back CLEAN!!! I used a slightly-modified version of N2's method for dilution (I started w/the red meat 2 days sooner for more creatine/creatinine, added a little extra gatorade and 2 extra aspirin), just because I'm a heavier build and wanted to make sure there was no way I'd get detected. But the sample was a healthy yellow and the Medical Review Officer passed the sample just fine, so I'm very happy. I'm celebrating with a great big bowl right now! :jointsmile:
