When Does Marijuana Get Out Of The Body System?

I did something very bad 8 days ago... I was at a friends house and I ended up smoking on 2 marijuana joints... I had a urine drug test today.. I am not a big water drinker and other thatn drinking ice tea daily I really did nothing to prepare,because I did not know I was having one.... Do you think it is out of my system?...

It's hit or miss. Mostly ONE episode of marijuana smoking is gone by 5-6 days. It slowly builds up in the body's fat deposits , so with DAILY HEAVY USE, one stays literally stained for months. This takes a lot of use to occur and one time is not enough to build up the reserves. Never=the-less, it is notoriously variable and it's possible for 8 days (but not likely).
