How to Properly Store Cannabis in Jars
Proper cannabis storage helps maintain freshness, potency, and flavor. Storing cannabis correctly protects delicate terpenes and prevents the flower from drying out or developing mold.
Ideal Humidity Range
The ideal humidity range for cannabis storage is 58–62% relative humidity. This range helps preserve aroma, flavor, and potency while preventing mold and excessive dryness.
Why Glass Jars Are Better Than Plastic
Glass jars provide an airtight, non-porous storage environment. Unlike plastic containers, glass will not absorb odors or affect flavor. Glass also prevents static buildup that can damage delicate trichomes.
Why a Hydrometer Helps
A hydrometer measures the humidity level inside your jar. This allows you to monitor storage conditions and ensure your cannabis stays within the ideal humidity range.
Canna Keepers jars include a built-in digital hydrometer so you can easily track humidity without opening the jar.
Why People Use Humidity Packs
Humidity packs help maintain a consistent humidity level inside the jar. These packs either release or absorb moisture to keep cannabis in the optimal storage range.
