Hi everyone, I usually pre grind portions of my mc to keep with me in my carry case, I don't grind a fresh nug everytime I'm about to medicate, are there any downfalls to keeping weed grinded in a jar over some time ready to put in a capsule?
Thanks

depends on the timescale. ground up and used within a day or two? not a problem. storing it ground up can lead to some loss of terpenes and if it’s exposed to sunlight, the THC will start converting to CBN. it should also be stored as air tight as possible

Yeah depends on how long.
I will sometimes ahave ground too much one one particular type of weed at night and have it left in the grinder in the morning. I only use high CBD flower in the morning so when this happens I empty it into a jar to use later.
When I do go back to it in the evening it has less taste but is ok.
I think it depends how humid/dry it is out, how warm/cool it is out and how long your leaving it ground for.
I always put the lid on my grinder if I have ground cannabis in there.
I only ever put my ground cannabis in storage for like 24h max- usually more like 12-14h and I can notice a difference, although not huge.
I know lots of people use the dosage capsules and also people with dexterity problems would find that easier too. They even used to sell pre ground flower but surprisingly no one wanted it lol
The thing is med bud has so little terps in it to begin with, you can’t really afford to lose any more!

I grind mine and put into either dosing caps or keep in little smell proof canisters.
Each lasts 1-2 weeks, no noticble detriment to quality or effects, been doing this for years.
