How To Store Weed : Pro Tips


 

The most serious threat to cannabis's shelf life is moisture. Overly damp cannabis can also be harmful to one's health, since it promotes the formation of mould and mildew. So, too much moisture is harmful, but losing too much can damage the integrity of your cannabis flower. Your flower, for example, may grow brittle and lose important terpenes, which impair potency and flavor.

Fortunately, the process of finding the right balance begins long before you buy weed. While no two cultivators dry their flowers in the same way, they all dry their blooms and then cure them.


Tips To Keep Your Weed Fresh For Long


1.Keep marijuana away of direct sunlight as much as possible; the darker the marijuana, the better. UV     rays damage marijuana, and research has found that it is the major cause of cannabinoid degradation.     This is comparable to grass or leaves turning brown after a particularly sunny day.

2.To prevent mould from forming, marijuana should be kept at the proper temperature. Mold flourishes     at temperatures above 77 degrees Fahrenheit, so keep your cannabis cool. Too much heat can also dry     up and destroy cannabis, reducing its effectiveness. Keep the temperature above 32 degrees Fahrenheit, as this can damage the bud structure, resulting in less potent cannabis. Marijuana should   not be kept in the refrigerator since it is susceptible to mould and mildew due to temperature and  humidity fluctuations.

3. Always store your cannabis in an airtight container to avoid exposure to the air. When storing little       amounts of weed, avoid using overly large containers because this allows too much air to enter the        container with your herb. Although some oxygen will always leak into your sealed container once it is    opened, you can limit the number of times you open your jars.

4. Paper or aluminium foil can't protect your cannabis from humidity or temperature changes, so don't use these to keep it. Neither will your taste receptors be frozen. Putting your buds or nugs in a deep freezer is debatable because the severe temperature might cause your weed to become crumbly and brittle, and trichomes to shrink.

5. Keeping cannabis too dry accelerates the ageing process, while keeping it too damp encourages mould growth. Consider using a humidity packet to combat this. It can infuse just the perfect amount of moisture.


Buying weed from a trusted dispensary and understanding the dos and don'ts of marijuana storage will aid in the preservation of the plant's natural effects, smells, and scents. Having a fresh marijuana bud is vital for a wonderful smoking experience, whether you're a medicinal or recreational user.
