Every cannabis connoisseur knows that preserving the herb, in any form, is a must. Even when using KLIP, which is specifically designed for ease of use, keeping a stash of rolled joints will save you the trouble of sitting down to grind and roll every time you feel like taking a hit. This kind of preparation is practical, and you can simply take one of your pre-rolled joints wherever you are.

However, it is a fact that some people might have doubts on how to preserve a rolled joint. While there are numerous, apparently effective joint storage ideas, you need to adopt a way that keeps them fresh for as long as possible to protect the quality of your ground cannabis. If you want to maintain the perfect flavor and effects of your spliff, we will guide you through some of the best methods to preserve a rolled joint.

How to Preserve a Rolled Joint

What happens if you don't store your pre-rolled joint properly? Well, in most of the cases, what is gonna happen to a stale joint is that it will burn faster and surely not taste as good as it should. Moreover, your joint may hit a bit harsher because the cannabis inside has dried out.

What you do want to watch out for is any sort of mold in your joint. Leaving your pre-rolls on the desk, in a drawer, or in your pocket is not gonna protect them from damage. Cannabis rolled joints should ideally be stored in moderate temperatures, out of sunlight and in an environment with a relative humidity of between 59 – 63%.

Another reason to properly preserve a rolled joint is to maintain the terpenes and cannabinoids of your herb. If they are in frequent contact with air, they will eventually decrease their potency. As a result, you will most likely have a tasteless herb with a lower THC or CBD presence.

Now that we are aware of the importance of storing your pre-rolled joints properly, we will share with you some of the most efficient ways of storing them after they are rolled. These methods can be adopted according to your resources, needs, and preferences.

A Saverette

If you are one of those who like to get high with a joint instead of bongs or vapes, the Saverette is a storing device you must definitely invest in. This unique joint storing device is multifunctional, as you can use it to store pre-rolled joints as well as partially smoked joints. When you place your smoked joint inside the device, it will get extinguished in less than 5 seconds, saving it from getting damaged when you try to stub it and put it out yourself. This device is created from heat-proof hard plastic, so it will not melt or result in toxic smoke.

Doob Tube

Doob tubes come in a variety of shapes and sizes, able to accommodate a wide range of joint styles. Furthermore, they are portable and reusable joint containers. The airtightness of the doob tube will help keep the strong odour at bay, reason why users often recur to this storage tool.

Torpedo Cone Tubes

These are long tube-like containers that can safely hold your joint while you travel. They come with a sturdy protective layer of plastic that prevents the joints from getting twisted, crushed or broken.Torpedo cone tubes come in varying colours to suit your preference including black, orange, red, yellow, and blue. If you are constantly on the go, they are truly a perfect choice for transporting your pre-rolled joint safely exactly where you want to get them. 

Cigar Tubes

As the name suggests, cigar tubes are used to store cigars and keep them fresh. Cigar tubes also sometimes contain wrappings for cigars, which can be used as rolling paper. The length of these tubes allows them to fit in most joints, and their strong build keeps them from getting damaged, even during transportation.

Pill Bottles

Pill bottles are designed to keep pills safe from moisture and damage, which is why they can also be a great option to keep your pre-rolled joints safe. Although they are not tall enough to store full joints, depending on the bottle, they are spacious enough to fit small joints and half-smoked joints. Just like they do with the pills themselves, pill bottles work to keep out moisture and free radicals, preserving your joints for a longer period of time.

Ziplock Bags

The reliable Ziplock bag is one of the most traditional methods of storing joints. Ziplock bags serve as an amazing and cheap way to keep joints fresh when stored away at home. When zipped completely, it will prevent air and moisture from infiltrating, limiting rapid degradation and mold formation of the joint. 

A Glass Mason Jar

Glass mason jars may offer space to add a moisture pack for longer-term storage. They are usually used to store dried flower buds, not joints. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t be repurposed to do the pre-rolled joint storing job perfectly. This could also be a great option if you like to have a plethora of pre-rolled joints at home. Just make sure that whatever jar you are using, it provides an airtight seal. Additionally, there are lots of glass jar-style containers that are specifically made to store dried cannabis flower or pre-rolled joints.
