Might have a problem: Marijuana residue can be detectable in urine after heavy smoking for up to 6 weeks. It can be present in hair for up to 90 days. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Typically yes: In general your drug test after 5 weeks of not smoking (if its true) should be negative. HOWEVER, there is variability in the excretion of THC from individual to individual and the result may depend on chronicity of smoking marijuana and how much you used to smoke. Also since it is stored in fat, the leaner you are the less likely for your body to hold onto it and distribute it from time to time
