How long does weed (sativa) stay in your system?


Recommended Posts

Thank God it was sativa. Had you smoked (I mean, um, had your friend smoked) an indica strain you'd (I mean he'd) be lucky to ever land a job again. 

In all seriousness - if you took one hit you'd probably pass a piss test the next day. 3 weeks later there is no way you fail it.

Measurable traces of the active ingredient remain longest in hair.  Probably be safest to shave your head.

The stewards at Hollywood Park summarily suspended jockey Patrick Valenzuela Friday until they can conduct a formal hearing after the jockey failed to provide samples of his hair for drug testing as required under terms of his conditional licensing agreement with the California Horse Racing Board.

The action came one day after Valenzuela resumed riding following a month-long suspension. The stewards ordered him off all of his mounts beginning Friday evening when he could not provide CHRB investigators with hair samples as required. The 41-year-old jockey has completely shaven his head, chest, armpits, and pubic hair, which are the only areas of his body that could provide a sufficient quantity of hair follicles for testing. He did provide a urine sample before he resumed riding Thursday, which tested negative for drugs. The testing of hair follicles is a more comprehensive test.

Valenzuela has been riding for the last few years under a signed agreement with the CHRB, which among other things requires him to submit to drug and/or alcohol testing as directed.His failure to appear for a drug test Jan. 22 prompted the Santa Anita Park stewards to suspend him for the rest of 2004. Valenzuela testified May 18 during an appeal hearing that he missed the test because he was severely depressed due to personal problems and the effects of medication prescribed by a psychiatrist. The seven racing commissioners unanimously upheld the stewards' suspension but reduced the term to four months with credit for three months already served. Valenzuela served the fourth month by sitting out the entire month of June.

In addition to all of the conditions of his ongoing agreement with the CHRB, which includes mandatory participation in a rehabilitation program, the commissioners ordered that Valenzuela also be subject to testing of his hair follicles. All of the hundreds of tests performed under the original agreement have involved the testing of Valenzuela's urine samples for illegal substances. All of those tests have been negative. Hair screening is considered far more effective than urinalysis in identifying drug use because drugs can become trapped in hair cells and remain detectable for months. A standard screening requires from 70 to 120 strands of hair.

The original agreement allows for the "summary termination" of his conditional license if Valenzuela fails to fulfill any condition. The May 18 decision of the board added the requirement for hair screening and specified that failure to complete the required hair follicle testing would be deemed a positive test result and a violation of the conditional license agreement.

Let's say a friend has a urine drug test coming up on Monday and he had a single hit/puff/whatever of a joint with the sativa strain of weed about 2-3 weeks ago.  How long will it be in his system and should he worry about failing the test if its been 2 or 3 weeks?  Literally asking for a friend.

I hear the UK sativa strain is fierce.

So was it 👍  or 👎 on your "friend's " test?

OK I have a terrible story related to this. A friend of my SIL, who went to school at Colorado School of Mines, got a job, took the drug test, and then went out that night had had a couple puffs. 

Got a call the next morning that the test was lost or contaminated, pissed again and it ended up being a $85K mistake.

That was an amateur mistake. Always wait til you know the results were returned.

Also if I was worried I'd buy an over the counter instant test at CVS, same urine test that the lab uses right?

Or if the employer has a no weed policy then don't go smoke weed right after "getting" the job.
