Medical Marijuana Storage Improves Potency

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 5, 2009 -- Denver, CO. Smooth Draw Stash Boxes were designed for the needs of medical marijuana users and dispensaries. They were developed to keep in freshness, scent, flavor, and potency of medical marijuana, while keeping out water, weather, heat, and dust.

With the growth of legalized marijuana, Bent Grass Products decided to create a product that will protect a very valuable asset in this growing field. Like tobacco, fruit and other natural products, marijuana cannot retain its most sought after characteristics if it is handled roughly or stored improperly. Heat, light, and humidity affect the freshness, smokeability, and potency of marijuana.

Matt Chalek, spokesperson for Bent Grass, says, "While we designed the product for medical marijuana dispensaries, we are fielding a lot of calls from smoke shops as well. The amazing thing is that Smooth Draw boxes can be used to protect any product that needs safety from the elements."

The most common form of stash deterioration results from dehydration. Freshly manicured stash needs adequate moisture content. Moisture allows stash to retain its shape, malleability, and fresh flavor. If you look at newly-manicured stash and compare it to stash that is six months old, especially if the stash has been stored in a paper bag, you will see the difference. Fresh hydrated stash looks good and smokes smooth, but improperly stored stash dries out and falls apart.

Smooth Draw containers minimize dehydration and other problems. They are made of nonbreakable glass-reinforced "ABS" plastic. Unlike other plastic, ABS cannot absorb outside odors and does not give off its own odor. Other plastics, like the polyurethane used in food storage containers, impart a chemical odor to herb, and smoking such herb might introduce harmful by-products into your lungs.

Smooth Draw stash boxes are so resistant to external air and water that they have been tested at depths of 100 feet and show no sign of rupture or leakage.

The units are equipped with a neoprene O-ring which creates an air-tight, water-tight
environment. Because they are air-tight, they are also odor-proof. The smaller boxes are lined with a closed cell foam that provides shock resistance if the box be dropped. The larger SD3000 boxes are lined with pick-and-pluck foam. This foam is pre-formed into cubes that can be pulled out to form interior storage space in any shape you can imagine. Customers use the larger boxes to store breakable smoking accessories like glass pipes.

Note that most other marijuana storage systems, especially those that are made of wood, are inferior to Smooth Draw. Wood allows moisture to escape from your stash thereby contributing to the drying process.
