Drug Test for Cannabis? So dumb, I know

Hey ya'll. if someone who has not smoked in many months even one hit of anything "green" related, smokes one bowl of great quality weed, high cannabinoid level stuff, how long will it be in their system? I have heard 1-6 days but I have heard some simple urine tests can even detect any level of use for up to three weeks, even in the case of a person with no metabolites in their body before taking the one bowl or even one hit. for that matter, would it help if they only took one hit?! lol THANKS and looking forward to your opinions, I know it's been asked but i seem to get quite varying answers. Peace!!!

There really is no 100% accurate answer to your question.
I will say that one hit would leave my system in about 3 days.
Most drug tests have an acceptable level of THC and anything above that level fails.
The BEST way to find out how long ONE hit of weed will stay in your system is to buy a couple at home drug test kits (~$20) and test yourself a few days after.
It all depends on your metabolism. Keyword being your.
How often you get sweaty/out of breath working out, how often you poop, how much body fat you have, etc. all play a role in how fast YOUR system will rid itself of thc metabolites.
Drink plenty of water the day before and the day of the test, and you should be fine.

I just passed a test yesterday. Had been clean for three weeks, but before that I was smoking 2-3 times a week. Very small amounts however. IMO if your not smoking more than once a week, and if it's a very small amount, like 1 or 2 hits, you'll probably be clean in a couple of days. I get tested for work, so I usually only smoke on Friday or Saturdays, and I only need a hoot or two and I'm good. This schedule has been pretty good for me, and saves me lots of money to boot, as a gram will last me a month or two

Growing fungi is a super addicting hobby. Im just a noob really, only been doing it for about 9 months, but I find that I just want to push more every time. I started with cakes like most people, but after a couple of months of that I decided it was time to rock grains and agar. Those pics in my sig are some pretty modest attempts really. I like to think of them as learning experiences that I could eat. Im always looking forward to the next big project

I still can't believe how commonplace and seemingly accepted drug testing is in North America..
I have never heard of anyone in the UK being tested for drugs at work, other than athletes, and even if they fail the consequences seem minimal or are ignored depending on the fame/status of said athlete.
In many ways (video surveillance etc) I think the UK is more of a police state, but the US seems to take the cake in terms of drug paranoia, especially for something as benign and semi-legal (depending on state) as pot.
Must suck to have to worry about piss tests etc all the time.
I think the police in the UK may be subject to random tests, but I've never heard of an officer facing any repercussions for failing one.
Guess the UK isn't so bad somethimes.

I love how in Canada you live in constant threat of a test if you work in the oil industry, but cops, lawyers, politicians, doctors, nurses, paramedics, teachers, and many other sensitive positions are given a free ride. I think cops especially should be tested regularly here, not just if they happen to shoot someone. The number of times I have been shaken down by pigs just looking for some weed or coke blows my mind. Now our wonderful leader Adolf I mean Harper, wants to build more prisons and fill em asap. While the US is actually starting to develop some relatively sane views on prohibition, Canada is backpedaling at a fast rate.

That sucks man... I cannot comprehend how much money someone must be making somewhere by keeping all this illegal! And to the friend across the pond, I have heard many stories that the UK is much much better livin than many places in America, or at least in the sense of laws, local(ish) government, drugs, society/way of life....I really wish i could just leave here and smoke my way through amsterdam and farm mushrooms and help people...lol. Heck, i'd even take the open room my family has in Australia if I had the money to get down there... Thanks yall...I hope I dont go to jail for smokin cause i took one hit of a perc last night. not that perc yall, the chill kinda perc....guess i should drink lots of water and pray, two things i dont even think effect the rate at which metabolites attach to fat cells, then subsequently detach from them and show up in drug tests!!!

if ya just took one hit, and you been clean for a while, you will probably be fine in two days. Water is good, but some antioxidants would help. Eat lots of fruits and veggies. Plus if ya got a day or two before your test, a little exercise and sweating in a sauna will help as well. The night before to the day of test be well hydrated, take a few asprin, eat lots of high fat foods, and be as lazy as possible. You should be fine. Hopefully ya are only gonna get hit with the 50 nano and not the 25.

Drinking lots of water weeks prior to the test won't really help
You want to drink water the day before.. Then definitely the day of. Get cranberry juice too. It won't "flush" your system. cranberry juice is a natural diuretic and will make you piss a lot.
The key is dilution. your body metabolizes the thc in your system at a rate of x amount per hour. This comes out in your urine, and if you don't drink anything there is a lot of metabolites built up in your piss. This is why the first piss of the day is the worst piss to pass a drug test with.
If you are pissing x times per hour, the metabolites will be diluted because .. let me draw a picture. x = metebolites in an hour ( ) = urination
x x x x ( )
x ( ) So, in this diagram, pissing once every hour will have 4 times less metabolites than pissing once every 4 hours. actual rates depend on how quickly your body metabolizes the thc.

This has been disproven, the idea that the body sweats out toxins in saunas. I was watching something the other day, I forget what, but it went into detail as to why this is the case, so I wouldn't try sweating out the 'badness'.

Its not to sweat out the "toxins" its to burn a little fat that the THC metabolites have accumulated in. So burn some fat and then the day before, stop burning fat.

I think it has something do with the metabolites being in our fat cells and THC is not water soluble, so flushing your body with water and replacing it with new liquids won't help because you don't pee or sweat it out mostly, you breathe it out. Working out a few days before the test to try and replace the fat cells that have the metabolite bound to it and then building fat to cover the fat with the metabolites 24-48 hours before the test, so the metabolites are not able to get out in a high concentration

Did you not read my posts? drinking water is for dilution. You don't flush metabolites with water.

lol sorry I didn't read through it all just the beginning and end. I've always wondered if drinking alcohol would flush metabolites, know anything about this?

I think it's more of a diuretic (makes you pee a lot) than anything. I'm not positive though, I haven't researched alcohol too much.
Some tests include alcohol, just depends on why you are being tested.

nothing like that first piss after a night of drinking haha. I thought maybe because thc metabolites are alcohol soluble that it could absorb and leave with your urine if you have a high enough BAC

Wouldn't it be present in all fat cells then? The likelihood of pinpointing those fat cells containing THC and burning them off seems a little hard to comprehend, or am I missing something? I must confess my knowledge of fat burning/metabolising is very limited.. 
I was just pointing out that the sauna technique is a dead end, and not something worth wasting time on. I think time and plenty of fluids are the only really effective ways to fool or pass a test.
