If you’re like most cannabis enthusiasts, chances are you’re most likely considering buying weed online from one of the hundreds of thousands of online dispensaries — we know we would! Online dispensaries have made buying weed online a seamless and effortless process. And while we can’t wait for you to start blazing up as soon as your order arrives, this time of the year is usually when cannabis lovers run into a handful of problems when storing their weed.
With summer temperatures on the rise, we want to make sure you’re fully prepared to store your bud this summer season. If you’re looking to keep your weed as fresh, potent, and flavourful as possible, keep reading for our top Do’s and Don’ts for storing weed in the summer!
DO – Research Your Dispensary Before Buying Your Weed Online
Today, you no longer have to worry about leaving your house to journey through the summer heat to your local dispensary, or stress about waiting around for your friend’s cousin’s friend to show up with your weekly order. That being said, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still keep an eye out for certain things.
When deciding on which dispensary to go with to buy your weed online, it’s important to do your research. With whichever dispensary your choose, you’ll always ensure their flower is sourced from reputable and high-quality cultivators. For instance, WeedHub only sources their flower from the most trusted growers in Canada, ensuring their customers are smoking nothing but top-tier cannabis.
Other small details such as helpful customer service, strong user reviews, and seamless ordering processes truly make all the difference and allow you to shop confidently.
DON’T – Store Your Marijuana In Direct Sunlight
While dryness alone won’t ruin your flower, leaving your bud in direct sunlight will! A study by the Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology found that light is the single largest contributor to the deterioration of cannabinoids. This is because when cannabis is exposed to light and air for a prolonged period of time, the THCA content gradually begins to convert into THC and that THC into CBN, which has non-intoxicating properties — you won’t find the high you’re looking for!
To make matter worse, when your weed is left out in the open, the exposure to oxygen (air) itself can oxidize the terpenes, leaving your flower with a hay-like, grassy smell.
DO – Store Your Cannabis In Cool Dark Areas
When it comes to keeping your weed fresh, one of your greatest enemies is moisture and humidity. Mold and mildew thrive in warm humid environments, and your weed is especially susceptible to bacterial growth when left in the summer heat or in a poorly sealed container.
The best way to store your marijuana is in an airtight glass or silicone (not plastic) container and out of direct sunlight in a cool, dark, dry area. You can even use a dehumidifier package or any natural dehumidifier to help manage any moisture problems!
DON’T – Store Your Weed In The Freezer
While you should be keeping your weed in a cool area, this doesn’t mean you should be putting it in the freezer!
Temperatures in a freezer will significantly degrade the overall quality of your flower by freezing off essential trichomes. To keep your cannabis as healthy as possible, try to make sure your weed is stored at a temperature of around 70 degrees Fahrenheit (around 21 degrees Celsius).
