Setting the Record Straight on Cannabis Storage
At Puro Vita, we often hear customers share various myths about storing their cannabis products. Let’s debunk some common misconceptions to help you maintain the quality of your purchases.
Myth #1: The Refrigerator Is the Best Storage Location
While many believe keeping cannabis in the fridge maintains freshness, this actually creates harmful humidity fluctuations. The ideal storage conditions are room temperature in a dark, dry place using an airtight container.
Myth #2: Plastic Bags Are Fine for Long-term Storage
Plastic can create static electricity that damages trichomes and can leach chemicals into your product. Instead, opt for:
• Glass containers with airtight seals
• Ceramic containers with proper humidity control
• Specialized cannabis storage containers
Myth #3: Sunlight Helps Preserve Cannabis
Direct sunlight actually degrades cannabinoids and terpenes quickly. Keep your products away from windows and UV exposure to maintain potency and flavor profiles.
Remember these key storage principles:
• Store in a cool, dark place
• Maintain consistent temperature
• Use appropriate containers
• Keep away from heat sources
By following proper storage guidelines, you’ll ensure your cannabis products maintain their intended effects and quality. Visit our dispensary for more expert advice on product care and preservation techniques.
