Yeah, I admitted it on my SF-86, and while it prompted them to interview more people, and delayed my clearance by about six weeks, it all worked out fine. They don't really care if you've smoked weed. They don't even care if you're still smoking weed (although you have to play the "it was in the past" game). They don't care about this kind of stuff. What they care about is what you're trying to hide, because if you're hiding something, you can be blackmailed. So just fess up and you'll be fine. Try to lie or cheat, and you're blacklisted for life, and rightfully so.
