Storage For Herbal Blends

[fedete]

Ok, here's the thing...
Last week I received my last order from UK...
So now, I have like 40 bags of herbal blends (mostly Spice Diamond and Ex-Ses Platinum), these are supposed to last for a long time to come...maybe years (I only smoke one day per week, mostly on weekends).
I want to know if storing these herbal blends in a freezer at -18ºC will help to extend the time before degradation of plant material (and most important if it will help to preserve the chemicals like JWH-018, CP 47,497 and JWH-073).
Do you think that Spice and alikes products will last at least a couple of years before they start to degrade? It is better to store it on a freezer or keeping it at normal temperature?

freezing it will slow degradation slightly, but I wouldn't hope for the actives to last indefinitly....

that being said, the foil packaging doesn't let in air or light, which slows it down ever more.


I can't speak as to the life of these chems, but they *probably* won't last you more than a year at any respectable potency...

but I could be COMPLETELY wrong. I've never had stock long enough to discover degradation.

I've used Spice that was well over a year old which was still potent, even though it was just stored at room temp, though it's true the packaging had never been opened:) Might go off more quickly once opened

Most chems should last at least a few years if stored properly. I've read articles where people have consumed 40-year-old Delysid and reported little to no diminished effects whatsoever. And LSD is supposed to be super-sensitive to the elements. Just goes to show a little care can go a long way.
