    My friends told me that weed stunts your growth, and once you start smoking that you cannot get any taller. Is that true? Sorry if I sound stupid, but they literally were arguing with me and i didnt believe so I decided to ask it on here

    No, if that were true I'd still be as tall as the average 2nd grade kid.

    No, but heavy usage can result in low testosterone, also every time you smoke weed you deplete vitamin c so make sure you supplement with that.

    When I get high and drink a gram of vitamin C, it is the most wonderful feeling

    I drink a shit-ton of orange juice so I should be good in the vitamin C department :D

    Your friend is trying to scare you and it's safe to assume he/she is anti weed

    Coffee and cigarettes REALLY stunt your growth. Weed, no.

    he may be saying to what most people say with "stunting growth" which is heavy usage when you are very young, it MAY cause growth stunt in your cells.

    I'm 5'11" and started using Cannabis when I was 13, I'm 68 now.

    I would be taller than "Bean" if I hadn't started using Cannabis, if Cannabis REALLY stunted growth.
