Can your Weed really go Bad?

Once you have got your MMJ Card, one of the main tasks is done. Now, all you need to do is buy some weed and enjoy getting high. There are many options to buy some good quality weed. You may order it online, or buy it from a nearby cannabis dispensary or a retail shop.

But many times you may come across some questionable marijuana flowers. They smell bad and taste harsh. And therefore, one question that troubles a lot of Bakersfield Marijuana users and many others is “Can their weed really go bad?”

We are here to find out the answer.

What Actually happens to some Weed?

Weed doesn’t actually go bad. However, it may go through some chemical reactions which may make them lose their aroma and potency. But that too depends on how you store your plant. Temperature, oxygen, humidity, all can affect your marijuana in one way or another. On average, a cannabis plant loses its THC concentration by 16% in one year, 26% in two, 34% in three and 41% in four years.

Your weed won’t go bad to harm you physically. But it can be infested by mold if it is stored in conditions that are too moist or humid, which can harm your health. Mold generally gives out a bad odor similar to sweat or urine. So if your weed smells funny, it’s better to throw it away.

How long can we Store Weed?

If you store your cannabis plant in the most optimum conditions, it may survive up to a year. But most cannabis users don’t keep a track of the conditions in which their weed is stored. And therefore, with varying light and temperature, on average, your weed may last for around six months. Usually, most users will consume it before six months. But any plant stored for more than that won’t be good.

What about other Cannabis products?

Marijuana edibles come with the markings on their labels telling the time up to which they can be used. All the factors that affect a weed plant, such as oxygen, moisture, etc., have the same effects on these products too.

However, unlike cannabis plants, edibles can spoil more quickly, especially those that are made of eggs or milk. Users may keep them refrigerated for extended shelf life.

Usually, edibles can survive up to a week, depending on the ingredients.

How should we store our weed?

The answer to this question may help a lot of Bakersfield Marijuana users, and many others too.

A cool, dark and dry place is something that you should look for to store your cannabis plant. Also, you should always store it in an airtight container. You may use a mason jar for the purpose. A few mug jars can keep your weed safe even from UV rays. These airtight containers not only keep your plant smell fresh but also keep them from degrading quickly.

You may also get a humidity pack for your weed if you wanna up to that level. These packs are specially designed to keep the humidity inside up to a certain level.

Now that you have some knowledge, you can easily identify if your old weed is still worth the smoke or you should better buy some new. It’s always better to be safe than sorry.

Happy Smoking!
