Short term effect can be loss of perception like sight, touch, sounds, no idea what time of the day it is etc. memory is what marijuana seeds effect the most and there may be big problems in learning. At the same time a user of marijuana seeds lose coordination and cannot solve problems as his thinking process is affected. Definitely heart rate is highly increased while the blood pressure goes down. Fear, anxiety and disrupt are other common negative effects.

Heart rate becomes really high as soon as you smoke marijuana. Even the blood pressure drops invariably. Per minute the heart beat increases to as much as 20 to 50%. All this altogether increase the chances of heart attacks. In fact if the studies have to be believed then the chances go as high as four times.

Effects on the Lungs

Marijuana seeds when smoked lead to burning sensation in the mouth as well as throat and thereby increase severe coughing. In fact the respiratory problems attached to marijuana are the same as what tobacco smokers experience like obstruction in their airways, acute chest illness, lung infections becoming frequent, production of phlegm and severe coughing.

Marijuana smokers inhale more content as compared to their tobacco counterpart and also are exposed to more drug as they hold it for long in their lungs, the carcinogenic properties are exposed fro more duration and thus they develop head and neck cancer.
