Debunking Popular Cannabis Storage Misconceptions

One of the most persistent myths in the cannabis community involves proper storage techniques. As a trusted dispensary serving multiple communities, we want to set the record straight about some common misconceptions.

The Refrigerator Myth

Many people believe storing cannabis in the refrigerator keeps it fresh longer. This is false! Refrigerators have fluctuating humidity levels and temperatures that can actually damage your products, leading to mold growth and degradation of cannabinoids.

The Truth About Proper Storage

Here’s what really works:

• Store in an airtight, glass container
• Keep in a cool, dark place
• Maintain consistent temperature (around 70°F)
• Avoid plastic bags or containers
• Keep humidity levels between 59-63%

Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Storing in direct sunlight
2. Using tobacco humidors
3. Keeping cannabis near electronics or heat sources
4. Mixing different strains in the same container

The Paper Bag Debate

While paper bags might work for short-term transport, they’re not suitable for long-term storage. Paper allows too much air exposure and can dry out your product too quickly.

Remember, proper storage ensures optimal freshness and potency. Visit any of our locations in Vista, Wildomar, Battle Creek, Lake Elsinore, Santa Rosa, or Ann Arbor for professional guidance on maintaining your cannabis products.

Always store responsibly and keep products out of reach of children and pets. Following these guidelines will help maintain the quality of your products and ensure the best possible experience.
