"In each Boveda, you’ll find purified water, natural salts and odorless food grade thickener, commonly used in salad dressing. The purified water-vapor flows in-and-out from the Boveda to either absorb or add moisture to your stash, depending on its needs."

Food grade thickener, maybe Pectin?

Ohhhh they'll get solid. Leave one out for a few days.
I don't use them anymore. No other reason then I forget I have some.

They get hard if they dry out. But you can re moisten them by putting them in a Ziplock with a damp paper towel.

What’s the shelf life? And what about those little red dot cards that come with them. Mine never change color even after like 2 years.

I only use when over drying is a concern like deep winter times of low humidity

Long storage option …. Good for perpetual growers like myself that tend to “ stockpile “ .
Longest I personally store about 4-6 month. For growers that consume say 2 weeks after cure then it’s a waste.
Some state odor robbing , I never really had that. I usually eyeball the mason liners ( seal ring ) and change those.
Integra is another version.

Forever. You can reuse them too if you want. I haven't been using them lately though.

Only real job is maintain an already Rh stable product ( weed ). You should have an already to store Rh and dryness before use.
The 58’s are my go to instead of 62.

What’s your opinion about drying weed in large yard waste sized paper bags after hanging for 3 days.

Over drying is always a concern of mine . I can’t ever prolong my dry longer then like a week. It’s very frustrating .

I was thinking they were stealing smell. It just seemed like it, so I've been going without. Even if I over dry. I'm just doing an experiment.

Ive done brown bagging occasionally ( large grocery ) , they work pretty well if I don’t have an area available to mesh dry.
Bags are permeated and slows the dry , weed is broken to nugs , roll down top like a lunch bag ( not smashing them just sealed enough ) then you can put in a dark corner / closet / under bed whatever. Open bag once a day , mix nugs , seal roll bag in hand to mix and break up clumping . I put a small cheap hygrometer in bag to monitor.

And seal bag with a large chip clip for easy opening / closing with a nice tight seal?

If you are in dry climate I would 100% start using them. They do work as advertised and having a jar opened up after a month or two with a bovida is refreshing.
even better is heat canning to make apressure seal for term storage with a b62

I prefer the 58's over the 62's.
