Store bought storage containers
If you prefer to purchase commercially produced products to store various cannabis products the following list will give you a few options. A comparison can be done to decide which method works best for storing your stash safely.
1.CANNABIS HUMIDOR
This method of preserving your weed involves a wooden mahogany container that helps with the correct humidity needed to maintain the freshness and taste of your bud. Do not use a tobacco humidor which is typically made from cedar. Cedar is not the wood for storing weed as the oils and odor from the cedar will transfer to your bud.
2.BOVEDA PACKS
Salt and water-absorbent beads are used to keep the correct amount of humidity needed in your weed. The packs combined with a humidor provide extra steps to ensure the quality of your bud remains the same as when you purchased it. These packs can absorb moisture when needed with the bonus of supplying moisture when the humidity drops to lower levels.
Storing weed
It is essential when storing weed for long-term to keep your buds separate from other cannabis products. Weed picks up different scents quickly and those unwanted scents, for e.g. a burnt pipe odor can be easily transferred to your weed.
Remember to store weed in a cool dark place regardless of the containers used. Light and heat are enemies to your weed stash and will deteriorate it, allowing the herb to sweat and cause mold to inhabit your vessel.
