Passive exposure would seem the only logical explanation here.

The max storage of THC in body fat is 3 weeks.

Your last question is a common one on this site.

The answer is no , although you can always make a point that no individual sampling system will have been tested against every possible substance to exclude false-positive results.

The only source of THC is the cannabis plant.
