Common Cannabis Storage Myths That Could Ruin Your Experience

The Truth About Cannabis Storage – Separating Fact from Fiction

At S&H GreenLife, we frequently hear misconceptions about proper cannabis storage from our valued customers in Alamogordo and surrounding communities. Today, let’s address one of the most persistent myths that could be affecting your experience.

The Myth: Storing Cannabis in the Refrigerator Keeps It Fresh Longer

Many people believe that keeping their cannabis products in the refrigerator will extend their shelf life. This common misconception actually does more harm than good.

Here’s why refrigeration is problematic:

  • Fluctuating temperatures create condensation
  • Excess moisture promotes mold growth
  • Cold temperatures can damage trichomes
  • Refrigerator odors can affect taste

The Better Solution

Instead of refrigeration, store your cannabis in:

  • Airtight glass containers
  • Room temperature environments (68-77°F)
  • Dark locations away from direct sunlight
  • Areas with controlled humidity (59-63% RH)

Following these guidelines will help preserve your products’ potency and freshness. Visit our dispensary in Alamogordo or any of our locations serving Boles Acres, La Luz, and surrounding areas for proper storage containers and additional guidance from our knowledgeable staff.

Remember, proper storage not only maintains quality but also ensures you get the most value from your purchase.
