Humidifiers FAQ

What is a humidity control pack or storage humidifier?

When storing cannabis, it is important to maintain the appropriate humidity level to prevent loss of flavour and potency. To achieve this, a humidity control pack or a storage humidifier can be used. Usually, these packs come in the form of small sachets containing a special solution that helps regulate humidity levels. The optimal humidity level for storing cannabis is between 60-65%. If the humidity level is too low, the cannabis can dry out, and if it is too high, it can lead to mold and mildew growth. Humidity control packs work by absorbing or releasing moisture to maintain a consistent humidity level within the container. They release moisture when the humidity level drops below the ideal range and absorb excess moisture when it gets too high. To maintain the freshness and potency of your cannabis for extended periods, it's recommended to utilise a humidity control pack or storage humidifier. This can be especially beneficial for those residing in areas with varying levels of humidity or those who store their cannabis for prolonged periods. It's a helpful method to ensure the quality of your cannabis remains intact.

What are the benefits of using a humidity control pack or storage humidifier?

Cannabis can maintain its strength and taste for longer durations if stored in a suitable humidity level. Exposure to air, heat, and light can cause cannabinoids and terpenes to deteriorate over time. Cannabis can also develop mould and mildew in excessively humid surroundings. To prevent such growth, a humidity control pack can be used to avoid moisture accumulation in the container. Consistent humidity levels can lead to even drying and curing of cannabis, ensuring a uniform taste and potency throughout the entire batch. The use of a humidity control pack is an effortless way to regulate humidity levels without the need for constant monitoring. Just place the pack within the container along with the cannabis and let it work its magic. Although it may appear as an additional expense, the use of humidity control packs can prove to be cost-effective in the long term by maintaining the quality of your cannabis for extended durations. This not only helps in minimising wastage but also ensures maximum returns on your investment.

How do you use a humidity control pack or storage humidifier?

When using a Boveda Humidity Control Pack to store cannabis, it's important to select the appropriate size based on the quantity of cannabis you have. Once the correct size is chosen, place the pack in an airtight container, like a plastic bag, Tupperware, or glass jar. It may take a couple of hours for the pack to stabilise and start regulating the humidity level, so ensure the container remains closed during this time. Boveda packs have a specific lifespan depending on the level of humidity and the quantity of cannabis stored, so it's necessary to periodically check the pack's condition to ensure it's still functioning correctly. Replace the pack when it becomes hard and crunchy, indicating it's at the end of its lifespan. To replace an old pack, simply remove it and put in a new one. On the other hand, to use a storage humidifier, you need to fill it with distilled water, put it in a container with your cannabis, and give it time to stabilize. The humidifier will keep releasing moisture to regulate the humidity level in the container. It is crucial to check the humidifier from time to time and refill it with water when required.

What happens to your cannabis when it's stored with a humidifier?

To maintain a consistent level of humidity in the container, the humidity control pack or storage humidifier either releases or absorbs moisture as needed. This is essential to ensure that the cannabis retains its freshness, potency, and flavour. It is important to note that if the humidity level in the storage environment is too high, it can lead to the growth of mould and mildew on the cannabis, which can spoil the entire batch and even cause illness. Therefore, by using a humidity control pack or storage humidifier, the growth of mould and mildew can be prevented by maintaining the appropriate humidity level. Conversely, if the cannabis is stored in an environment that is too dry, it can become brittle and lose its potency. On the other hand, if it is stored in a humid environment, it can become mouldy and lose its potency. Thus, using a humidity control pack or storage humidifier can ensure that the cannabis stays fresh and potent for a longer period of time.

Is it worth investing in a humidifier for cannabis storage?

Inappropriate storage environment can have adverse effects on the potency and freshness of cannabis. If stored in a dry environment, it could be susceptible to brittleness and loss of potency. Conversely, a humid environment could lead to mold and mildew growth, which could not just ruin the batch but also have health implications. Using a humidity control pack or storage humidifier can help in maintaining optimum humidity levels and prolong the shelf-life of cannabis, preserving its potency and flavour. This could also help in reducing the frequency of buying cannabis, thereby saving money in the long term. These tools also help maintain a consistent level of humidity throughout the container, which ensures even drying and curing of the entire batch. They are user-friendly and require minimal upkeep. To use them, place the pack or humidifier in the container with your cannabis and let it work its magic.
