Brief Answer:
Around 30 days
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
The clearance times for marijuana varies widely depending on the frequency and quantity of use. I have given below the approximate clearance times according to the degree of use.
Moderate Use (4 times per week) 5 days
Heavy Use (daily) 10 days
Chronic Heavy Use 30 days
So, according to your description, it would take around 30 days for the drug to be cleared from the system.
Wish you all the best.
