Let's face it. If you want to maintain the quality of your stash, it needs to be stored properly. There's nothing worse than going to use your weed, only to find that it's dried out – or worse – humidity got hold of your bud, and the mold set it. Not cool.
Keeping your stash in an airtight glass stash jar will protect it so that it's just as fresh and potent the next time you go to use it. So, what does a container need to provide to do its job correctly? In this post, we'll look at what you need to protect your weed from and how airtight glass stash jars can help.
What are the benefits of using an airtight glass stash jar?
There are several benefits of using an airtight stash jar. It helps to keep your buds fresh and potent for longer, prevents odor from spreading and keeps your cannabis discreet. Finally, it helps prevent mold and bacteria from growing on your buds. So, how does a stash jar help control these damaging environmental variables?
Limiting light exposure
When talking about light exposure, the type of light that causes damage is Ultraviolet (UV) light. The primary source of this is (obviously) the sun. However, there are still levels of UV light in other light sources, such as a Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL) bulb. It's good to try and limit the amount of light exposure your weed has, as the UV light will break down the THC in your stash.
Airtight for freshness
Keeping your container airtight is about more than stopping your weed from drying out. When the air gets access to your weed, it can bring other unwanted visitors with it. This includes mold spores, chemical contaminants or dust. Therefore, suitable containers will have an airtight seal, keeping the air out and retaining potent smells.
Humidity and temperature
Getting the humidity and temperature right for your stash is a little like the Goldilocks effect. Too much, or too little, and you're sure to be disappointed. However, if you get it just right, you'll be golden! So, where is just right? Ideally, you want to aim for between 59 and 63 percent Relative Humidity (RH), and for temperatures, keep it below 70 degrees Fahrenheit (F).
Why use an airtight glass stash jar?
Glass stash jars are often used as a popular choice for storing weed as they offer a range of benefits. Glass can be shatterproof, the containers come in a range of sizes, and the material is naturally smell proof.
