does weed ever go bad?

[jamstigator]

I'm in the Midwest too, and an ounce of danky dank is $400+ around here. I sell my excess to a dealer for $200/ounce, and he then resells it for $400, and he says it sells itself -- he just makes a couple of calls to let people know the primo shit is available, and two hours later it's all gone. He gets no discounts on price, so a QP is $800 and a pound is $3200. Since he doubles his money, he has no complaints, and has snatched up everything I've ever offered him.

I have a couple of friends in SoCal (San Diego area, gaming industry), and they tell me the prices are pretty much the same there, $400-ish for an O of something really good. They don't buy more than an ounce, so I dunno about other quantities. If they'd move back here, I'd hook them up for free, and I do hook them up for free when they come to town to visit family and stuff.

I wonder how expensive alcohol was during Prohibition, because I gotta say, pot prices are getting a bit ridiculous.

Weed is organic material. All things organic decompose over time. How slowly they decompose depends on the environment in which they are stored, but no matter how well stored, none can last forever.

lets say hypetheticslly that i have a big bag i wanna share with a friend im not sonna see for a year. is it good?

raw cannabis does have a shelf life.
That being said..., if one removes the trichomes from the leafy matter (that eventually rots like all vegetation does), the trichomes/thc can remain potent for a couple of thousands years, or more.
Hashish has been discovered in tombs two thousand years old, and it's still potent.
Your canabis will still be good after a year, and probaby just as good as now if you store it properly.

dude i've seen on here so many times over and over people getting blueberry quallity dank for 10 a g... all those people can't be lying... but see you also have to take in account the economy of the area... it costs a whole hell of a lot more to live in cali then around here, but people also make more there.... just like in some parts of new york it's normal to pay up to 7 or 8 bucks for a pack a marlboro's, here, 3 somthing.

Slipnot hit the nail on the head. Souldistortions prices are accurate for California. If you think the price of weed is bad out here, look at the price of housing. A house that would cost $200k in Atlanta would cost $1mil here. And that's not an exaggeration!! Fortunately, we pretty much only get dank out here so at least we're not paying that for schwagg or mids.

As for long term storage of weed, I've kept buds for over two years by vaccuum sealing them. Since there is no air, there's no oxygen and mold can't grow. It will compress the hell out of the bud but when you open that bag up they'll smoke just like the day you bought them.

sorry to "un-hijack" this thread, but to answer the original question: YES, marijuana does lose potency over time, as the THC breaks down, etc, ... I recommend keeping it in a Mason jar, in the refrigerator ... if it is too damp, crack open the jar every day, for a few minutes, until it is where you want it ... if it gets too dry, place a small piece of lemon or orange peel in the jar overnite ... you get the idea ... :smokin:
