He got to smoke pot and he was not dying or debilitated.
The is in Los Angeles County, the judge O.K.ed it.
Peace
Don't ask , tell.
Tell your probation officer you request him/her to tell the judge presiding over your case that you intend to use cannabis while on probation, and that you will happily take the drug tests to show them you don't use other drugs, but that it will come up dirty.
If the court, p.o, judge ect denies you then just ride it out brother.. There will ALWAYS be weed around long after your dead, so you've got plenty of time to enjoy it. I'm speaking from experience.
Also don't trip on your results of your first test, legally, at least here in CA, your first result is not as important as the second. You can simply claim you haven't smoked since convicted, and whatever they find in the first test is residual. If the THC results are higher on your second test then your first..your fucked.
Cheers
Present your rec to your PO, I doubt he will tell you that you cant use cannabis as he is not qualified to be responsible for your health. Worked for me in Cali ... smoked and grew the whole 3 years on felony probation.... except for the actual jail time
1/2 gallon of water daily and ibuprofen 30 minutes to an hour before the test
