A true wine connoisseur will take special precautions when it comes to storing their wine, so why should a weed enthusiast be any different when it comes to preserving their precious nugs?

Gone are the days of storing weed in sandwich baggies or in shoeboxes under the bed. Cannabis deserves better than that, and so do you. Storing pot in the right conditions will help it keep its taste longer, and protect it from the elements that will deteriorate its quality (like heat). We’re not talking about keeping your marijuana good for just an extra week or two, with some of these methods your stash can remain fresh as the day you bought it for years.

The best thing about them? You can purchase many of these storage systems without breaking the bank, and once you have everything together, you'll have the extra benefit of having your collection organized, just like those fancy winos out there.

Check out MERRY JANE News’ in-depth look at storage options above, and get your weed the protection it needs.
