nitrogen?

Well freezing it could be bad if it was wasn't stored in very thick plastic. FREEZER BURN is also real. If the product becomes freezer burnt then defrosting it WILL result in moisture being driven back into the bud. This could easily mold.
I agree with you particle that if frozen properly it will stay nice for a long time. I think if it was double vacuum bagged it would work. Single bagging may end up with a small pin leak and thereby not being sealed properly.
It has more to do with the equipment used and the thickness of the plastic bag material thickness. Professional or commercial grade vacuum equipment will do this. But not many folks have access to that. It only work because of the ultra thick plastic used.
Otherwise freezing is a risky storage method. Dry weed in mason jars in the fridge is also risky. Cool dry jar storage is the way to go. The buds store pretty well this way, but the weed will age this way. So using it up is best in 6 month from my experiance....IMO
Overall.....THE MORE MOISTURE LEFT IN THE BUD...THE HARDER IT IS TOO STORE.

Freezer burn isn't a necessary component of frozen storage. Neither is it the equivalent of mold or bacteria. Neither are we talking about long term storage. I'm talking about having it frozen from A to B, prior to which it's being prepared, after which it's being consumed. But if it were done really well, it no doubt could be stored very long term. Toss it in an MRE type package for example, which is multiple layers of metalized plastic, with an oxygen scavenger.

Vacuum seal bag plastic is pretty thick already and I'd be impressed if one wasn't enough to prevent frost. I fully expect that the LP's could easy have the best of professional/industrial equipment. In this discussion I'm not concerned with little johny copy and paste who wants to grow weed just like the LP's. Certainly useful considerations though.

I've tossed wet trim with some good buds in it into the freezer with nothing more than a double paper bag. It was going to be for extraction but I never bothered, It was of impressive quality when I took it out months later, and wound up smoking it. The point is that it's not that difficult, and even more to the point, it'll be a lot easier for the LP's to figure out than how to dry/and not even cure it, then shipping it, still wet, in a hot van, across the country, and not have it go bad in some way if not every way, while irradiating or not, which they're obviously having to do, because they are attempting to following convention mindlessly, with their big phd's.

It can be done way the hell better than they're (failing miserably at) doing it now.

The first isn't for long term storage either. That's just a cool place to throw it while it's jar curing, and only a personal stash, fine for short term storage too. But I'd rather not detract from the transporting issues that clients are suffering with current methods.

Overall.....THE MORE MOISTURE LEFT IN THE BUD...THE HARDER IT IS TOO STORE

Sure, ordinarily, but this is not ordinary. It's really easy to store when it's frozen rock solid. Any excess moisture left in it will escape rapidly once the clients receive it and let it sit out while it defrosts. Certainly far less of an issue than the way Tweed shipped wet, ruminated, irradiated cud.

I sure expect that we'll soon be seeing them experiment with such methods, and qualifying their own appropriately, publicly of course. Because up until now they've only assumed such standards, and the results speak for themselves.
 
LOL where do you live, the artic circle hahaha grow your own if you want a decent one.... anything you grow yourself will taste ten times better

Close. Maybe where you live they grow them differently, but commercially grown tomatoes are widely regarded as tasteless and texture-less crap.

But they ripen uniformly, which is the genetic mutation they selected for so that dummies find them appealing in the stores. The side effect of their preferred mutation is that they're tasteless and texture-less crap.

Absolutely, it is an argument to be able to grow your own damn self, but it's not because it's your own achievement that it tastes better. That loses the point. The point is that you have unique priorities relative to some commercial producer and can ensure the result you require where they cannot.
 
kinda describes the "genetics" ppl so often refer to in MJ, I was actually thinking about that for the past couple days, how so much MJ is GMO's ... or breeding somewhat the same. probably even might surpasses what tomatoes have been changed through the ages. I was thinking when will they produce a breed that is mite resistant and disease resistant. probably be some screwed up shit when ya smoke it yuk
it will be called MMJ for Monsanto Marijuana :spew:
 
I think we are on the same page. I was meaning that if it weren't for prohibition, we would not have these problems.

yep... hope if prohibition ends we don't have more controls that cause even more problems but you know..... the govt will try to control to death

You mean like population control? I wouldn't even want to see what's in the ferts a nutes let alone, studies for irradiation. Food, air, meds etc are all ways for them to speed up the process and buds are now meds...sorta.

LOL pop control... you baked LOL no just can't grow yer own ..... can't smoke it anywhere, unless it's in the closet in the basement.... those type of controls hahahaha
 
just thought of something..... imagine what the advertising will look like on forums and websites when the LP's will be able to legally advertise.... spam spam everywhere
 
It's pretty funny how the U.S. mainstream media think all the pot stories are now "cute".
They got stories about this weed and that store. They seem to find it all quite fasinating.
From criminals to cute TV people we've become.
