  1. I don't know most of the 400 chemicals myself but the main chemical of concern that is found naturally in marijuana is a psychoactive drug referred to as THC - delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol - which amount varies in the plant depending on the soil, weather, type of plant etc. Others are choline, eugenol, guaicacol and piperidine while 60 of them are classified under cannabinoids.

    The other few hundred may be have been introduced due to the preparatory stages or like you said, laced for potency.


  2. THC...

    Ammonia....

    Nitrous Oxides....

    Hydrogen Cyanide...

  3. There aren't a whole lot of organic materials out there that don't contain hundreds of chemicals. Most of them are harmful to at least a small extent to humans - plant's don't enjoy being smoked.

    I'd put money on THC being the most damaging psychoactive drug, but a lot of them probably just tear up your lungs. That's merely an educated guess, though.

  4. the only chemicals in weed are the ones that are used to grow it.

    no chemicals are added to it.

    the bud is dried out and thats what people smoke.

    there's a bunch of chemicals in cigs, maybe thats what you're thinking about.
