TL;DR:
StrainSeek includes Boveda humidity packs in every flower and pre-roll order to keep your cannabis fresh, flavourful, and potent. These two-way humidity packs maintain ideal moisture levels, protect delicate terpenes, and prevent mold or dryness. While it’s not advertised, Boveda is a behind-the-scenes quality booster that helps StrainSeek deliver a consistently premium craft cannabis experience.
When you open up a fresh pouch of cannabis, that burst of aroma, sticky-smooth feel, and vibrant flavour should always be there. At StrainSeek, we go beyond just sourcing premium craft flower. We package all our flower and pre-rolls with Boveda to lock in that experience from the moment it leaves our facility to the moment you spark up.
It’s one of those quiet details we don’t always shout about, but it makes all the difference.
Why Humidity Control is Crucial for Cannabis Quality
Cannabis is a sensitive plant. After harvesting, its quality can rapidly decline if it’s exposed to the wrong storage conditions. The biggest culprit is humidity.
Too dry, and the flower becomes brittle, loses stickiness, and the terpenes (the aromatic oils responsible for flavour and effects, such as Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene and more) begin to evaporate. The result is harsh smoke, less potency, and muted flavour.
If it’s too humid, the cannabis can become spongy, burn unevenly, and worse, be at risk of mold and mildew growth, making it unsafe to consume.
Terpenes are especially fragile. When they evaporate, they take your product’s flavour, aroma, and therapeutic value with them. That’s why controlling humidity isn’t just important, it’s essential.
How Boveda Works and Why We Trust It
Boveda isn’t just a pack, it’s a two-way humidity control system developed through serious science. It uses a natural saltwater solution sealed in a patented membrane to regulate moisture through vapour-phase osmosis.
When the air is too dry, Boveda releases purified water vapour. When it’s too humid, it absorbs excess moisture. The result is a stable relative humidity level inside your jar or pouch, typically 58 percent or 62 percent, depending on the product.
This helps form what Boveda calls a terpene shield, a molecular barrier that prevents terpenes from evaporating and protects trichomes from degradation.
You’ll know it works when your bud feels springy and sticky, not dry and dusty. Grind it up, and that loud terpene aroma lets you know your flower has retained its quality.
Why We Include Boveda in Every StrainSeek Package
We’re committed to delivering the full craft cannabis experience, from the way our flower is grown to the way it arrives in your hands. Including Boveda in our packaging helps us:
Protect trichomes and terpenes to preserve flavour, aroma, and therapeutic value
Maintain ideal texture so it stays sticky, not crumbly or wet
Prevent mold and dry-out by keeping RH levels where they should be
Maximise shelf life, so whether you open it tomorrow or next month, it stays fresh
It’s a small investment that makes a big impact on your smoke, and one we include at no extra cost.
Fun Facts for the Curious Smoker
Want to dive deeper? Here are a few extra details worth knowing about the Boveda packs we use:
RH levels matter. We use 58 percent or 62 percent depending on the product. Never mix RH types in the same container, as they will cancel each other out.
Boveda is self-activating. Just open the seal. No setup required.
Boveda lasts 2 to 6 months. In airtight containers, it can last up to 6 months. In frequently opened stash jars, around 2 to 4 weeks is typical.
Replace when rigid. As Boveda dries out, it becomes stiff and hard. That’s your cue to swap it out.
Final Thoughts: Why You’ll Feel the StrainSeek Difference
Whether you’re a daily consumer or a once-in-a-while toker, you deserve a smoke that tastes as good as it smells and hits as good as it looks.
At StrainSeek, we don’t just deliver weed. We deliver a curated, craft-quality experience, and every detail matters. That’s why every order is protected with Boveda, even if we don’t always advertise it.
Now that you know, you’ll start to notice the difference.
