This is tobacco ?
Definitely will be negative. They test only one component, a breakdown of nicotine. It definitely never stays 2 months even in heavy smokers.

Marijuana... that is borderline. In a heavy daily marijuana smoker, the breakdown products stick in fat and come out again slowly. 2 months is still a long time but it is possible.
