The relationship between humidity and cannabis is a bit complicated. Marijuana plants both like and dislike humidity, while dried cannabis flower has an ideal humidity level. Cannabis consumers should, at the very least, understand how humidity affects their dried buds, so let\u2019s get into it!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Terpenes<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Found in the trichomes of the female cannabis plant, terpenes are naturally occurring compounds. Terpenes are important because they are responsible for the distinct smell of each strain. The flavour profiles of cannabis strains can be enhanced by maximizing and preserving terpene levels! \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Humidity has a direct effect on cannabis quality. If your buds are overly dried, they tend to lose their rich flavours and delicious aromas. Dried buds have a sweet spot when it comes to humidity. Ideally, when storing cannabis, there should be a relative humidity of 58%-62%. Maintaining this range of relative humidity will protect against trichome damage, terpene loss, overly dry buds, and mold. Anywhere below 55% relative humidity will result in loss of weight and lower quality buds. If the relative humidity is above 65%, there is a risk of mold. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The good news is that the weed you buy from a dispensary or online weed delivery service will be sealed in a bag or can. Some online dispensaries, like High Society 416, also add a humidity pack into their premium canned products. These humidity packs protect your cannabis terpenes by maintaining a relative humidity of 62% within the resealable cans. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHow does Humidity Affect Weed?<\/h6>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
