Yes, but not because the THC degrades over time. It’s a relatively stable molecule and we have tested the product for years and found that our edibles have remained potency stable at room temperature. In most cases, edibles have an expiration date based on the degradation of the food products they’re made from. Edible tablets and gummies will retain potency and stay fresh longer than cannabis edibles that require refrigeration, in most cases. Always check expiration dates on edible cannabis product packaging purchased at a cannabis dispensary near you or, if DIYing your cannabis edible, store the edible and check for spoilage as you would any other concoction you create in your kitchen. To maximize the shelf life and retain the potency of edibles, it’s suggested to store them in airtight containers in a cool dark place and away from moisture. Refrigeration does not extend THC life; it just keeps THC food substances from spoiling. Freezing edibles may preserve freshness, however it may affect the texture and flavor after thawing.
