THC converts to the cannabinoid CBN over time. The only way to mitigate it is to prevent the oxidation of THC into CBN with something that absorbs oxygen.

You can use these during storage to prevent the conversion of THC into CBN.

How long does the 100 cc pack last? I see they make them with much more inside- 1000 cc and 3000 cc, just higher cost but rather not keep replacing the small ones… 100 cc pack good for an ounce or half pound or pound? Do you also add the 62% RH Boveda pack?

I freeze my flower in Mason jars in a non frost-free freezer. It comes out just like the day it went in. I have some flower from 2018 that still knocks you on your behind.

No freezer space here unfortunately.

To be clear, the freezer you are using has to be manually defrosted from time to time?

I just found some Banana Kush a couple day ago from 2021 in my freezer. It was in a ziplock so it dried out a bit. It was super stoney weed when I put it in there. Its still super stoney and surprisingly not all that harsh. If you dry hit a joint it still tastes fruity. I probably ran out of grove bags and put it in the freezer and forgot about it. I just put it in a grove bag earlier tonight.

Yes: the defrost cycle will prematurely age the flower.
