Even lab tests use a type of immunoassay that reacts with drug metabolites but it is not in the form of a stick with lines.

There are cutoff levels to keep false positives down. The usual cutoff for THC is 50 ng/ml on immunoassay, in which they measure for 31 different metabolites (GC/MS is usually 15 ng/ml looking only for THC-COOH). If the line appeared showing a negative result, it only means you are below 50 ng/ml. You could be at 0 ng/m but that is still below 50. You could be at 25 ng/ml but that is still below 50 and still a pass. You may have some THC metabolites but not enough to fail.Serenity now, Insanity later...
Get a home drug test if you want to know for sure if you can pass a drug test. Drinking lots of water for days and days before the test will not help you get clean quicker. All that water will not make your kidneys work better.
