Hey My Fellow Hyperspacers,

I've been all about that changa life as of late. So much so, that I've realized I have a great many of extra herbs for future batches.

Presently, I only make use of 1g of herbs at most when making a new batch. And a batch will last me at least a month, but more commonly longer.

That being said, I would like to keep some of the herbs that I won't be using anytime soon in a state that preserves their freshness for when their time comesSmile.

How do you store your herbs for long periods of time?

Freezing? Refrigeration? Vacuum sealing? Moisture packs? Nothing at all? lmao

One love

I like to store my medicinal smoking herbs in zigzags for obvious reasons but if you're not smoking them a AIRTIGHT glass jar stored in a cool ,dark environment should be good.

p.s. You can always stuff your herbs into tea bags and make tea...People have been doing it for a LONG TIME

I love using Glass jars and a vacuum seal system. Mason jars work great with a Pump-N-Seal system. I'm still using a Pump-N-Seal that I bought 20 years ago. I store my Cannabis extracts like honey oil in vacuum sealed glass and they have as much potency and flavor today as they did over a decade ago.

Oh yeah those reasons are definitely obvious lolThumbs up

Also, good call on the teabags. Some of them would be good as teas for various reasons.

So you provide a double whammy of preservation, eh? I like it. For some of the more special herbs I have a lot of, I may go that route and then freeze.

Impressive planned obsolescence hasn't hampered your devices over timeBig grin

You have 10 year old cannabis extract? Laughing

Got a 21 year old extract as well. Potency only slightly less than original. Tastes a wee bit different but tastes nice. Packs a whollop. Never had it tested but I'd guess it is at around 650mg/g now and got extracted and went into glass around 21 years ago at around 750mg/g. A really nice original SourD strain. That is my oldest and one of my finest extracts.

Miron glass jars(optimal jar for storing medicine long term)
In Honey or in Alcohol/
tinctures in fridge.

Glass jars and humidity packs work great for me. I have cannabis over a year old that's actually in better condition now then when I bought it thanks to those little packets.
