For her, the central question when it comes to cleaning and organizing is:\u00a0<i>Does this object spark joy?<\/i><\/p>\n<p>In the context of a messy household, it can be hard to answer that question. But the obvious answer for most of us when it comes to cannabis and infused products is a resounding, \u201cYes! All of it brings us joy!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, just because you\u00a0<i>think<\/i>\u00a0you love everything in your stash doesn\u2019t mean that you don\u2019t need a little KonMari in your life.<\/p>\n<p>Kondo has six basic principles: commit yourself to tidying up, imagine your ideal lifestyle, finish discarding first, tidy by category rather than location, follow the right order and, as mentioned, ask yourself if it sparks joy. While it\u2019s true that all of these may not apply to an overhaul of your weed and paraphernalia, if you have crunchy <a href=\"\/medible-ganja-gummies\/\">gummies<\/a> or crumbly bud sitting around in wait for the perfect day, you might need to heed some of these tips.<\/p>\n<h4>Trash Ancient Edibles<\/h4>\n<p>Although you don\u2019t have to really worry about any decrease in the level of\u00a0<a href=\"\/what-is-thc\/\">THC<\/a>\u00a0in cannabis-infused treats, there\u2019s still the risk that some of the ingredients could go bad, depending on your date of purchase.<\/p>\n<p>Hard candies, gummies and other items without things like eggs or\u00a0<a href=\"\/edibles-how-to-make-canna-butter-and-canna-oil\/\">butter<\/a>\u00a0can maintain their quality for a long time, but if you have brownies, cookies or other treats made with dairy, it may not be the best idea to enjoy them beyond their recommended expiration date. If you notice any discoloration, signs of mold, an \u201cinteresting\u201d smell or if you see that your once-moist treat is now rock hard, just dump it and start over.<\/p>\n<h4>Replace Old Pipes and Bongs<\/h4>\n<p>You might have a couple classic pieces in your collection that you\u2019ll never give up, but it might be time to retire others, especially if you start noticing cracks or unsightly discoloration that makes your accessory look old, worn and dingy. Pipes and bongs that aren\u2019t\u00a0<a href=\"\/spring-cleaning-your-smoking-paraphernalia\/\">cleaned regularly<\/a>\u00a0can also have an impact on the flavor profile of your cannabis, meaning they might be what\u2019s stopping you from properly enjoying the distinct taste of that Lemon Kush. Plus, it just might be time for a style upgrade if you\u2019re still using your red, yellow and green tie-dye pipe from college.<\/p>\n<h4>Organize and Store Products Correctly<\/h4>\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest: legal cannabis is expensive, and illicit market prices aren\u2019t much better. It doesn\u2019t make sense to spend so much of your hard-earned money on items you\u2019re not going to take the best care of.<\/p>\n<p>For small purchases that will be gone the same day, storage concerns won\u2019t matter as much. But if you want to maintain the quality of your purchases longer, it\u2019s important to put them up the right way. Keep buds in airtight containers and out of contact with direct sunlight. The same goes for edibles, which have the best shelf life when stored in the fridge. And don\u2019t forget to keep tinctures and concentrates in cool places, far away from heat and harsh light.<\/p>\n<h4>Ditch Stale Flower<b>\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>The average smoker will probably not have an issue with keeping buds for too long \u2014 but if you buy in bulk, purchase large amounts of shake for baking or topicals or frequently lose then magically find weed you\u2019ve misplaced, then there are some things to look out for before you enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from a loss of moisture and aroma, if your bud hasn\u2019t been properly stored, there\u2019s a chance that there could be mold that may not be immediately visible on the surface. To check, try breaking up the nugs to make sure there\u2019s nothing lurking in between them. And even if none of the visual cues are present, it still may not be worth your time depending on how old it is.
