is this legit?
Its A table I found on this site but i have also seen it while serchin the web.


Light smoker or acute dosage = 1-3 days. Moderate use (4x / week) = 3-5 days . Heavy smoker (daily) = 10 days. Heavy, chronic use (5+ joints/day) = 10-21+ days. Oral ingestion 1-5 days

That table is a ballpark estimate, though it is unclear what they define as a "heavy user"? Is that 10 joints per day for 10 days?.
Now, you can try to translate those smoking behaviors into the time it would take to "test clean on a dipstick assay". The key factors are the THC% of the pot, the level of aerobic exercise, body morphology, the fiber content of your diet, and the hydration of your body fluids. In our algorithm the potency of the pot is assumed to be 10% w/w THC--which is high quality pot, so the upon this an estimate of the clean-test-time is predicated.

It COMPLETELY depends on the person and their lifestyle. I'd say the light smoker (once a month or less) can see their system cleaned out in 2-3 days. The rest of that table looks a little optimistic to me.

Look at it as soap and a sponge. Your body = Sponge. Smoke = Soap. If you spread a little soap on the surface of a clean sponge it will wash right off pretty fast and easy, but if you put a good amount on there daily and let it sit... the sponge is going to soak up the soap. Then it's going to take a long time of standing there wringing out the sponge under running water to get it clean (if you ever get it completely suds free).

Pretty elementary analogy, but it was a great visual when I was busting my ass in the gym trying to get clean for my drug test. Just pictured myself wringing out that sponge baby.

To get clean:
Don't be fat (stores the evidence) - Drink plenty of water (can't clean a sponge without water) - Eat lots of green things (don't smoke it) - Exercise (wrings the sponge) - Get 8 hours of sleep each night (hardly ever recommended for getting clean, but it's the reason the first void is so full of metabolites. The body performs the most recuperation during sleep, and that includes cleansing.)

If you have a drug test and you don't have time to get clean:
Drink ungodly amounts of water (dilution) - Start taking a creatine supplement now (adds weight back to diluted sample, and it takes 2-3 days to metabolize and be excreted through the urine) - take vitamin B supplement (adds the color back)

Sorry for the rant, but I recently had a major drug testing victory. Probably did 72 hours of research through forums and medical journals to get educated and it payed off, so this is the sum of what I learned.

Happy Cleansing!

<---Heavy user, failed mid-day void at day 41.

^^^^Throw table out window.

Wasted----if you're failing after 41 days it must mean that the THC is being stored in your muscle tissue because your fat tissue would've turned over by tha time period. Assuming you are healthy otherwise. No?

Healthy as an ox, probably in the best shape of my life. I will be getting results on a GS/MS (taken at day 50) test later this week/early next week and I'll have a better idea of where I am at. PM me if you want so we don't hijack another thread.

Just trying to make the point that everybody is different. There is no set in stone formula for when you will be clean. I am sure there are people with the same smoking habits/weight/height as me that are clean in 16, 21, 27, 34, etc. I came to this conclusion way before I registered by searching obsesively for my "magic time frame" and lurking for about a month. Anybody who does enough searching in these very forums can see that the times people claim are nowhere near cohesive. Just test yourself, try not to get stressed out too much about it.

Sec

w3st3d, have patients. You will test negative pretty soon. And, when you do, you will look, and look again, wipe your eyes, take into different lighting and look again. Then you won't believe it and you will use another test to confirm it.

...but it will happen soon. Hang in there.

We had a member who tested positive after 105 days of abstinence. We hear fairly frequently about people flunking a whizz quiz after a couple of months.

Say whaaa 105 days and still failng the THC screen? Clearly then, it ain't called the "sticky, icky" for nothing. But in all manner of reasonableness, surely you must concede that the real-time poll data posted herein are somewhat accurate as the indicate that the vast majorty of pot smokers beome clean after ~32 days abstinence. Notwithstanding the "Hawthorne Effect" and conceding that the sampling was not random, I'd at least consider these posted data to be informative.
