Drying/ Storing buds

I’ve dried buds and store them to the airtight mason jar. Can I keep this jar in the refrigerator? The temp there about 39F and humidity in the jar 63 while it in the refrigerator. The other coolest place in my apartment is 74F. Or I have to turn on A/C back to 65F? Thank you

If RH does not fluctuate, sure... no problem. 74F isn't going to "destroy" your supply. 6-12 months of storage doesn't require much effort - avoid high heat / control RH%. Try leaving some in the 74F location and compare at various points throughout the typical timeframe your harvests lasts. If you smoke it all within 6 months, i doubt you will notice much of a difference, for example. The exact line in the sand may vary a bit, and it some point the increased rate of degredation will be discernable between the two storage methods. I wouldn't pay for 65F on thermostate of AC for the sake of storage of weed. that's a high cost. Some of my weed has to last upwards of 12 months. I've been considering a vacuum sealer and using some space in fridge for good chunk of my harvest. Being sealed should keep the RH steady, i hope. I do notice a slight loss of quality late in the year but the potency is still nice and strong. Tends to be more about some small loss of flavor. temps throughout year vary from mid-60s to mid-70s in summer where it is stored, but the RH is controlled.
