Expiring??

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by j0k32r0x, Sep 5, 2011.

  1. Does weed ever expire or go bad??
     
  2. It can get extremely brown but no.
     
  3. might mold if you keep it in a moist environment or it wasn't cured well. otherwise, nope.
     
  4. It would take a while -i can't assure due to i usually smoke my shit fast- but probably lasts 1-2 weeks and up to months if conserved in jars.
     
  5. This study is likely a bit older than you are, hon, but it still holds true! ;)



    The stability of cannabis and its preparations on storage. (abst – 1976)
    [FONT=&quot]The stability of cannabis and its preparat... [J Pharm Pharmacol. 1976] - PubMed - NCBI


    [/FONT]Abstract

    Solutions of pure cannabinoids, nine samples of herbal and two of resin cannabis (one freshly prepared) were stored in varying conditions for up to 2 years. Exposure to light (not direct sunlight) was shown to be the greatest single factos in loss of cannabinoids especially in solutions, which should therefore be protected from light during analytical and phytochemical operations. Previous claims that solutions in ethanol were stable have not been substantiated. The effect of temperature, up to 20 degrees, was insignificant but air oxidation did lead to significant losses. These could be reduced if care was taken to minimize damage to the glands which act as "well filled, well closed containers". Loss of tetrahydrocannabinol after exposure to light does not lead to an increase in cannabinol, but air oxidation in the dark does. It is concluded that carefully prepared herbal or resin cannabis or extracts are reasonably stable for 1 to 2 years if stored in the dark at room temperature.
