How to know if weed is moldy and potentially dangerous?

Question

ok so how do you know that weed is moldy? Also i heard you can bake weed at 150 F for 5 minutes to kill potential mold, if this is true does its stink up the house or oven? How can i avoid the mold all together? how should i store it? Outide or inside?

Answer 1

Sorry, i dunno much about moldy weed. I suppose it should smell different and LOOK moldy.

Avoid moisture to avoid mold.

Oh, and i believe a bit of orange or lemon peel is supposed to get rid of moisture... just make sure it doesnt mold! :P

Oh, and i wouldnt put one of those packets from shoe boxes in with it. I'm pretty sure that's dangerous.

Answer 2

In order to kill microorganisms, especially mold, the scientists "Levitz and Diamond (1991) suggested baking marijuana in home ovens at 150 °C [302 °F], for five minutes before smoking. Oven treatment killed conidia of A. fumigatus, A. flavus and A. niger, and did not degrade the active component of marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)."[

Answer 3

its always dangerous

Answer 4

some one send the drug enforcemnt to this dumbasses house, and the paramedic if he smokes that weed

Answer 5

Well the answer is quite simple actually.

How do you tell if there is mold on it? Just use the same skills you use to see if there is mold on your turkey at the bottom of the fridge. Just look for mold!!! Little white or grey spots with fuzz or fur on it.

And if is TRUE weed, then it is not dangerous what so ever. Weed wont kill you, or give you cancer, but if it was laced (which is extremely rare) then that could potentially be harmful. If it was laced, the dealer would tell you or charge you a very high price. What dealer would spend more of their money to sell you weed with crack on it, when that crack would cost an additional $10? Exactly, you will know if you but laced weed, cause it would never be the same price.

I dont know how long you are planning to store or keep your weed, but most of the time mold will not occur. Normally just keeping it in a ziplock bag or some airtight container is sufice. I dont see any harm in using those little pouches, but honestly i do not think it is needed. Most of the weed you will get is already a few weeks old, and i have found weed in my dorm that has probably been there the better part of the year, and its still fine.

Baking it would be fine, because THC does not boil untill it reaches 392 degrees F (200 C). But baing it will most certainly stink up the oven. I dont know if that is hot enough to even kill mold though.

Normal weed is actually the flower of the Cannabis plant. When its time to smoke it, the flower or "bud" has been dried out. Here are things to look for, because it sounds like you dont really know what weed looks like...?

Dark green, dried and curled up little leaves.

Orange or dark brown "hairs" all curled up. Those are very rich in THC.

The leaves and bud itself will have a "frosty" look, looking like someone put sugar on it. Those are called Trichomes, and are very very rich in THC. The more of those, the better.

Here are pictures of very chronic buds.

Answer 6

OK, it's the same as anything else with mold, check for grey or blue fuzzy white spots that's usually the major sign of mold. Next if you're still unsure bake it in the oven for a short period as you've said above. The best way to store it is in a sealed glass jar as this helps it dry properly.

WEED IS NOT DANGEROUS.

All the best.
