Why Moldy Buds Are a Total Buzzkill?
Mold is bad news-- it's the ultimate party crasher.

Mold prospers in warm environments, so keep your grow room temperature between 68-77 ° F. Too warm? You're baking your buds in more ways than one. Too cool? You may get condensation and mold loves that. Keep it Goldilocks style: just right.
If you're shipping flower, temperature-resistant packaging is a lifesaver. Your product will stay as fresh as the day it was packaged, no matter where it's going.

And for all you online sellers, don't let your bundles take a moldy vacation before they reach your consumers. Check every one like you're searching for concealed gems at a yard sale.
