If I had a ziploc bag with some buds in it, and I didn't want them to dry out, how would I keep them moist?

Let's say I had them in a mason jar. How would I keep them from drying out in there? I don't smoke too often, so my shit usually lasts me awhile.

Keeping it in glass is your best bet for sealing in the moisture. If it dries out, put a piece of lettuce in with the buds overnight and they should remoisten (but make sure to then smoke the remoistened bud so it doesn't mold, so you might only want to moisten a fraction of your stash).

Why do you want to keep them moist???

I hate wet bud. Looks prettier than dry, though, thats the only positive I can think of.

I thought it's better if the buds burn slower? Aren't you conserving weed if they burn slower?

ermitonto, thanks for the advice. I never knew buds could mold if you keep them moist for too long.

I guess its just preference. I like to take big hits and dont want to be sucking until my face gets blue trying to get smoke. And I like it when the buds are dry and filling my bowl with the little dry crumbs at the bottom of the bag, alot of crystals that have fallen off the buds are collected in that dusty material and make for nice smoke. :cool:

A miniature Humidor like the ones for cigars would work good.

well if you ain't worried about burning up your stash first, here's what you do: take your bud, grind it with a coffee or hand grinder til it's up to rolling standards, then let it dry out til it's all crispy, then you stick that in a bowl of either a nice ass bong or gravity bong.....you'll burn up half your bowl but you will get one massive fucking hit

in my personal experience super dry bud gives you a very quick high and a very short high (not to mention playing meat pulverizer with your lungs) and moist buds that burn slow gives you a more smooth, mellow experience smoking as well as a slow onset high that lasts longer, just my opinion:D
