How Long Does Weed Stay in Your System After Quitting?

You've decided to take a step back from your leafy pal, whether it's a temporary tolerance break or a permanent farewell. This pivotal choice begs the burning question: how long will that cheeky THC linger in your system?

Unfortunately, there's no one-size-fits-all answer to this burning query. THC detection times can be as unique as your fingerprint, influenced by a myriad of factors. From your usage habits to the potency of your chosen strain, even the impurities present in your cannabis can sway the outcome (Smith et al., 2023, Nature Journal, link).

Your body composition also plays a pivotal role in this chemical ballet. Those with a higher body mass index may find that THC overstays its welcome (Johnson, 2023, WebMD, link), while their leaner counterparts may detox the compound sooner.


So, let's dive into the nitty-gritty details and explore the variables that shape your personal THC detection timeline. Buckle up, and let's embark on this educational adventure together!

*A Note About Test Types

THC detection tests each have distinct advantages and drawbacks.

 

Urine tests are cost-effective with a longer detection window but can't indicate current impairment (National Institute on Drug Abuse, 2023, link).

 

Blood tests detect recent use accurately but are invasive and short-term.

 

Saliva tests are non-invasive with a short detection window, ideal for recent use but less reliable long-term.

 

Hair tests provide a 90-day usage overview, are costly, yet might not be accurate (Brown et al., 2023, Scientific Reports, link).

😊 The Occasional Cannabis User:

For those who use cannabis occasionally (once a week or less), the detection windows are relatively short.

 

In urine, cannabis can be detected for up to 3 days, while blood tests can pick it up for 1-2 days. Saliva tests show traces for 1-3 days, and hair tests can detect usage for up to 90 days. Body Mass Index plays a role in the timeline as well.

 

If your BMI is over 30 (National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, 2023, link) or if your body fat percentage is over 25% for men and 32% for women, you might experience an increased detection time in urine tests by an additional 5-10 days.

Urine Test: Detectable for up to 3 days.

Blood Test: Detectable for 1-2 days.

Saliva Test: Detectable for 1-3 days.

Hair Test: Detectable for up to 90 days.

🙃 The Moderate Weed Toker:

If you're a moderate user (a few times a week) the detection times increase. Urine tests can find cannabis for 7-21 days, blood tests for 1-7 days, and saliva tests for 1-7 days.

 

Hair tests remain consistent, detecting usage for up to 90 days. Again, higher BMI or body fat percentage could extend urine detection by 5-10 days.

For heavy users who consume cannabis daily, the detection windows are longer. In urine, cannabis can be detected for up to 30 days or more, while blood tests show traces for up to 7 days. 

 

Saliva tests remain consistent at 1-7 days, and hair tests continue to detect usage for up to 90 days.

 

Those with higher BMI or body fat may see an extension in urine detection time by 5-10 days.

Urine Test: Detectable for up to 30 days (or longer).

Urine tests can reveal cannabis use for more than 40 days, sometimes extending to 60-90 days. 

 

Blood tests detect it for up to 7 days, saliva tests for 1-7 days, and hair tests for up to 90 days. A higher BMI or body fat percentage can further extend urine detection by 5-10 days.
