chrondomaniac 

Pronounced (kron-doh-may-nee-ack)
A slang term for weed or marijuana, but not just any weed. Chrondomaniac is another word for chronic; very potent, high grade marijuana, generally with red hairs in it, no seeds and high concentrations of white or opaque crystals (trichromes). Chrondomaniac is grown under perfect conditions which makes the THC (marijuana's active ingredient) level go through the roof.

Can also be plural.
