A friend of mine recently smoked a container of John 3:16 which he reportedly had an intense version of Marijuana. He experienced an extreme sense of paranoia, cotton mouth and mild euphoria. Another friend told me he experienced vivid visual hallucinations..

So I just picked up this small container from a tobacco store called Scorpion Spice the same store my friend got John 3:16 and it was a less potent. Anyone heard of this stuff before? There is no label information on the container, or content information. And I guess its legal.
 
Synthetic cannabinoids (most likely JWH-018) sprayed onto inert herbs. Everyone and their mom is sprinkling, spraying, and soaking herbs (mostly mullein, to the point that there's a shortage of the stuff) in all sorts of synthetic cannabinoids and sealing it into packages and selling them at 10-20:1 markups.

Most commonly used are JWH-018 and other JWHs (because they're cheap, not because they're good). Lot of horror stories about them causing excess anxiety (sometimes long lasting - far worse than weed does), not to mention the active ingredient is almost certainly carcinogenic (but so are lots of things, who knows how bad it is).

I'd steer far clear of the pre-mixed blends, because you don't know what's in them or how much, or how careful they were with distributing it in the herb. If i wanted to smoke synthetics, i'd buy them myself and make my own herbal mix, or vaporize the pure compound out of an "oil burner pipe"*, being very very careful with the dose. I've made my own blends with CP-55,940** (which is less anxiogenic than weed imo, and not likely to be carcinogenic), and they're a decent substitute for weed, though tolerance builds faster than weed.

* Also known as a meth pipe

** I use 1.5-2% by weight CP-55,940 on a blend of assorted herbs i got at a local healthfood store (raspberry leaf, mullein, lavender flowers, and a bit of peppermint for taste), dissolve cannabinoid in very small amount of acetone, apply to herbs evenly; sprinkling doesn't produce even distributions.
