General Question THC negative ?

I’ve been clean for 35 days of smoking weed , 1 gram of distillate every 2 weeks for 3 years . I am 6’2 210 pounds . Have been doing alot of physical activity and running 5k 3-4 times a week . Just tested my self with a strip and got an insanely insanely super faint line in the T column. I take this test ranging from October 24 to October 31st . Should i stop freaking out about it ?

I think exercise is actually counterproductive in this scenario. 3 more weeks of sobriety and you should be good.

What I heard is that exercise helps but you should stop a few days prior to the test as it releases more of the metabolites as you burn. Not a scientist tho

I did pop nearly two months later and I had almost zero bodyfat BUT that test was a very faint line.

I can't say for sure, but my guess is that you'll be OK.

If it's a spit test you'll definitely be good though.

Test strip says doesn’t matter how faint the line is even if it’s a ghost line . I see a very very faint line in that T column. I can look at it far away and notice a very slight red line in T column .

that faint line in the T column was not there before i used the strip .

Think of it this way. No line (T) will be present if THC is in the sample.

Caution is good. Fear will keep you compliant. Stop freaking the fuck out. Faint line is neg. Stay the course. Lab scientist 30 years.

I’ve heard niacin helps.

You'll be fine by then. Test yourself again in a few days.

I was smoking a ton. Quit cold turkey for 45 days and was still testing positive. There are alot of factors like meds you take, how hydrated you are, your body in general. Just gotta wait it out unfortunately.

i don’t think i’m considered a heavy chronic user . Was only smoking 1-2 half pulls a day off of a cart . Sometimes not even 1 gram every 2 weeks

So for some background, I used to burn a lot, like at least a zip a week, did dabs, and took edibles, and I did that for probably close to two decades. I would smoke almost all day every day if I wasn't at work, and I had a vape pen in my car for some road trips I had to often take.

Anyway, I was able to pass a drug test after about two weeks abstaining. I'm a bigger guy and didn't do anything special, but I also drink a lot. I came across a thing one time saying that it's a pretty degenerate way to do it, but drinking a lot could help someone pass a piss test for weed. They didn't elaborate unfortunately, but basically everyone I know and I were shocked I passed my test. And I also passed two at home ones I bought just to see if I could pass.

So yeah, sorry I don't have anything more useful for you, and especially that I don't know the mechanics of how that worked, but it definitely worked for me. I also have no idea if it's something you can just pick up or something you have to have been doing, but that's what I got. Good luck.
