Storage & Instructions

Flower

Cannabis flower can have a shelf-stable life for up to a year if cured and stored properly. The key is to keep it cool, dark, dry, clean, and glassy. Let’s break this down a little bit:

  • Keep it cool – high temperatures can dry out your flower and cause terpenes to evaporate, so don’t leave your flower outside or near a water heater, etc. Don’t turn to your freezer though, as freezing temps can cause your flower’s trichomes to burst, effectively losing potency. Room temperature rules here!
  • Keep it dark – extended exposure to UV light can break down the cannabinoids and terpenes in your flower. Store your bud in a darker place and out of direct sunlight!
  • Keep it dry – but not too dry! Too much moisture can result in moldy nugs, but if it’s too dry you risk degrading the cannabinoids and terpenes in the flower. The key here is maintaining a relative humidity (RH) of 59% - 63%. This is easy to achieve with a Boveda pack - just toss one into an airtight container with your flower and you’re good to go!
  • Keep it clean – make sure that your storage container is clean from any grime or mold spores.
  • Keep it glassy – when it comes to your storage container, glass is king! Plastic tends to have a static charge that can pull off trichomes, so we highly recommend having an airtight, glass container on hand to store any Derp flower gifts. If you’re looking to up your storage game, CVaults are a great option and the industry standard.

    • Cartridges

    Vape carts should be stored in a cool, dark spot to preserve potency and flavor. If possible, keep the cartridge upright and not on its side, to help prevent any possible leakage. We’ve rarely had an issue like this, but better safe than sorry!

    Edibles

    Gummies
    All of our gummies are shelf-stable, which means they can be left out at room temperature without any melting. We recommend refrigerating if in a warm climate or keeping longer than two weeks.
    Caramels
    Keep refrigerated for up to 6 months. For a softer caramel, take out of the fridge 30 minutes before consuming.
    Classic / Mini Derps / S'mores Cookies
    Keep refrigerated for up to a week or store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Microwave for 15 - 30 seconds before consuming for ultimate enjoyment.
    Ready-to-Bake Classic / Mini Derps
    Store Ready-to-Bakes in freezer.

    1. Preheat oven to 350* F

    2. Take out of freezer and bake for 16-18 minutes (for Classic Derps) or 12-14 mins (for Mini Derps), until golden-brown around the edges.

    3. Enjoy your freshly baked Derp! 😋

    Prerolls

    There’s a few methods to keeping your preroll fresh and tasty - the primary factor here is making sure your joint doesn’t dry out. Ground up flower = major opportunities for the flower to dry out.

  • Mason Jars
    A great option if you have several prerolls you’re saving for later. Much like flower, a Bovéda pack can go a long way in preserving your preroll.
  • CVaults
    This is what the Derps recommend for all you budding connoisseurs out there 😉. This is great option if you have several prerolls you’re saving for later. Much like flower, a Bovéda pack can go a long way in preserving your prerolls.
  • Doob Tubes
    This is what all District Derp® preroll gifts come packaged in. They are airtight and a great solution if you’re looking to take your joints on the go. This isn’t the best option if you’re looking for long-term storage, as you’re unable to control the moisture levels in the tube, but will definitely do the trick for at least a week.
  • Enjoy them now!
    This is how the Derps do it and is the best way to ensure your prerolls are fresh.
