question on long term storage

[cyberaktif]

i've had my herb in mason jar for almost a year now in a cool dark area. There are some jars where the herb is no longer green. i'ts almost like a yellow and didn't smell like it used too. should i use vacuum bags and put in the freezer for long term storage?

Hello Cyberaktif, We've also got a bunch in jars, for years, it's still good .But vacuum sealed in the freezer would be lots better, for long term storage.

I think vacuum sealed in a jar would be better, there will be less damage to the trichomes.

As long as they are in the freezer, it shouldn't matter that much, I wouldn't think Cyberaktif. I honesty don't know how long they can stay in the freezer, without going bad, probably a couple of years, but I really would like to know that answer. Good Luck with your stash.

If you do freeze it make sure you get freezer bags so you don't get freezer burn also

The first question that comes to mind is was the herb cured properly?

Boveda packs can keep your bud perfect for up to a year if you dont open the jar much. As soon as the boveda pack is bad put in a new one it will be good for another year sealed.

58 or 62 either is good for herb.

I like the 58's they leave my buds a bit easier to break up not dry and dusty but they do crumble a little bit with fingers.

62's will give a bit of a more squishy bud. May take scissors.

Also for sizes. They come in 4 gram, 8 gram and even bigger.

4 gram pack will store a half. 8 gram pack will store an oz. Ect. Ect.

Seal inside a vacuum bag just don’t get it under vacuum. Just close it off. Ideally around 55%rh Freeze if you like but you’ll loose a lot of trichomes handling it

Turn it into hash and vacuum seal it and put in freezer if u wish,much easer to store and won’t loose Trichomes lol

[Deadhead91]

Hash or wax is the way to go for sure
