Edibles, a popular form of cannabis consumption, can remain detectable in your system for varying lengths of time. The duration depends on several factors, including the amount consumed, your metabolism, and the strength of the edibles.
Amount of THC: Higher doses of THC can increase the detection window.
Metabolism: Those with a faster metabolism may process edibles more quickly.
Body fat: THC is stored in fat cells, which can prolong detection times in individuals with higher body fat percentages.
For most people, edibles can be detected in urine for up to 24-48 hours after consumption. However, some may test positive for up to a week, depending on the factors mentioned above.
Urine tests are commonly used to detect THC in the system. Blood tests can also detect THC, but they are less common and may indicate recent use.
