Herbal incense can stay in your system for as long as 72 hours.
Herbal incense is a synthetic cannabis made from both herbs and chemicals, and is known to produce similar effects to cannabis when it has been consumed.
It is most commonly acknowledged by the names Spice and K2, and even though these two are brand names they have become the generic terminology used to describe this substance. In some instances it is referred to as a spice product so that users know what it is.
Synthetic cannabis infusions first came onto the market in the year 2000, and initially they were thought to be legal because it was assumed that the effect they gave was from a combination of legal herbs. It was only in 2008 after laboratory testing that it was discovered that this was false.
In fact, synthetic cannabis contains cannabinoids that work in a similar way to real cannabinoids, such as THC, that is found in naturally-grown plants.
There have been many attempts at trying to avoid the law that dictates that synthetic cannabis is illegal by using a complex mixture of synthetic cannabinoids, such as JWH-018; HU-210, JWH-073 and cannabicyclohexanol, and it has been marketed under many different names in an attempt to make it into a luxury drug and, therefore, more desirable.
Spice was released by the London company (now dormant) Psyche Deli, and according to the Financial Times the assets of this company rose from £60,000 to £900,000 in the space of just 12 months.
