Will THCa show up on a drug test?Updated 3 months ago

Yes, THCa can show up on a drug test. While THCa itself is non-psychoactive, when heated (through smoking, vaping, or baking), it converts into THC—the compound most drug tests screen for. Since standard drug tests detect THC metabolites, consuming THCa flower in a way that activates it can result in a positive test.

If you're subject to drug testing, it's best to avoid THCa products.
