How Long Does Exotic THCA Flower Stay in Your System For?

Exotic THCA flower offers up a flower experience unlike any other, as the cultivation methods that give it its “exotic” classification are above and beyond.  And, being THCA flower, this product’s actually offering up a powerful dose of delta 9 THC, as THCA naturally converts into delta 9 THC once it has been heated through the process of smoking, vaping, or cooking flower buds.  

Exotic THCA flower, therefore, exits the body with delta 9 THC in its system, and long after the high wears off, there are still traces of the cannabinoid in the body.  Let’s talk about how long THCA flower can actually last in the system, which is especially important to be aware of if you’re going to be drug tested in the near future.

Exotic THCA Flower is a new compound that has been found to stay in your system around 2-18 days in the body before being completely gone. If you are taking a drug test, we recommend refraining use of Exotic THCA Flower products such as vape cartridges, disposables, gummies or tinctures as they will fail a drug test.

How Long Do the Effects of Exotic THCA Flower Last for?

We’re going to go into detail about how long the actual THCA flower – well, more specifically, delta 9 THC – stays in the body, even after the high wears off, during which time it can be detected in our urine and other bodily fluids.  But before doing that, we gotta cover how long the actual effects of THCA flower can last, keeping in mind that the duration time of effects are the same regardless of how the flower was cultivated.

Basically, most people find that they feel high from THCA flower for 2-3 hours, on average.  Of course, this applies to when the flower is smoked or vaped, as this is true of all inhalable products due to how they’re absorbed into the body.  If you’re making edibles with your exotic THCA flower, then the effects can last for up to 8 hours, as ingesting the flower introduces an entirely different process of absorption into the bloodstream.

How Long Does it Take for the Product to Leave the System?

Here’s the thing: any time we consume a form of THC, which occurs when we use THCA flower, our body converts some of that THC into a metabolite called, “THC-COOH”.  For the first half hour or so of the high of a THC cannabinoid, 50% of that cannabinoid metabolizes into THC-COOH, and then another 25% after another half hour.  What remains for a much longer period of time is the remaining 25%, which can be picked up on a drug test.

Now, just how long THC-COOH stays in the body can vary quite a bit, too.  It depends on factors like how much of the flower you’ve consumed, how frequently you consumed it, how much THCA was in that particular strain, and how your unique metabolism functions.  Due to this, THC-COOH can last in the body for anywhere from a couple of days to a little over a month.

What Does This Mean in the Context of Drug-Testing?

Again, THCA converts into delta 9 THC when it’s heated (like through smoking, vaping, or cooking), and delta 9 THC converts into THC-COOH when it’s absorbed into the system and goes through the body’s metabolic process.  THC-COOH is usually what drug tests are looking for, rather than traces of actual marijuana, because THC-COOH lingers in the system for longer, giving a clearer picture of the test recipient’s history of usage.  

Time to look at the different kinds of drug-testing methods that are used in the U.S., which could potentially show that exotic THCA flower is still in the system.

Method #1: Urine Tests

Most of the tests administered are urine-based tests, which look for THC-COOH in a person’s urine.  A urine-based test is easy to administer, and it’s inexpensive.  It can show results dating back to a few weeks of previous use.

Method #2: Saliva Tests

A saliva-based test is only going to show whether or not a substance was taken in the last 10 hours.  Often used by law enforcement, it’s the most common test for someone suspected of driving while intoxicated.  

Method #3: Blood Tests

A blood test is used to determine whether or not a person is presently intoxicated, as once the substance leaves the blood, the high is over.  This type of testing method is usually performed in hospitals.

Method #4: Hair Tests

Hair strand tests look for evidence of substance usage, but only 3 months after the substance was last taken, as it can take 90 days for evidence to appear in the hair strands.  It’s a method most often used in autopsies. 

Method #5: Perspiration Tests

A perspiration test involves the application of a patch to the individual’s skin for two weeks, where THC-COOH may be released through a person’s sweat.  It’s a method frequently utilized for clinical research due to its invasive and expensive nature.

What Actually Affects How Long Exotic THCA Flower Can Last in the System? 

As we mentioned earlier, there are a number of factors that determine how long THCA hemp flower (well, more like THC-COOH) can last in the body after your last dose.  Let’s go over those factors now, as they can all affect how likely you are to fail a drug test.

Factor #1: How Often You Generally Use Boutique THCA Flower

An important thing to consider is how often you have been partaking in boutique THCA flower, since once again, THC-COOH metabolizes at the same rate no matter how much of it is in your system at any given time.  And, specifically, it’s due to the accumulation of compounds in the body’s fat cells.

• If you’ve been smoking boutique THCA flower buds 3 times a day for 2 weeks, there is going to be a backup of THC-COOH in the system that needs, probably, a couple of weeks to clear, at least.  
• If you’ve taken it one time in the last month, chances are it cleared out of the system a couple days after.

Factor #2: When You Last Took Boutique THCA Flower

Yes, the last time you actually had some THCA flower matters too, regardless of how it was consumed (through vaping, smoking, or ingesting edibles).  Even people who were using it 3 times a day can probably clear it out of the body after a maximum of 6 weeks.  If it’s been over a month since your last flower session, you’re probably all good.

Factor #3: THCA Concentration 

The amount of THCA in the strain you’ve been using will matter as well.  Some strains yield 10% THCA, and some 28%, for example.  The more THCA in the strain you were using, the more that THC-COOH is going to accumulate over time.  Translation: Higher doses and more potent strains of cannabis will typically result in longer detection times.

Factor #4: Your Metabolism

Basically, some people simply metabolize certain substances at a quicker rate than others.  Everything ranging from your hydration levels and diet to your hormones can influence how long THC-COOH is finally fully gone from the body.  For examples, since THC and its precursors are lipophilic (fat-loving), they tend to accumulate in fat cells like we previously said.  So, people with higher body fat percentages may retain these compounds for longer periods.  Also, age can affect metabolism, and even overall health can impact how quickly the body processes substances like THCA.

The Answer: It Really All Depends 

Basically, exotic THCA flower can last in your system for anywhere from a couple of days to several weeks.  And, as you can see, there are lots of factors that go into determining that length of time.  Now, if you’re not getting drug-tested any time soon, it doesn’t really matter.  So, go ahead and enjoy your exotic THCA Flower from Bloomz, as if you’re not someone who gets drug tested, you don’t have anything to worry about.
