One just has the weed in it, and the other has a 62% humidity, size 1 Boveda pack inside. After having been locked away in a cool dry place for 30 days, both jars of bud are ready for Justin &amp; Ruben from Leafly to dive into the sniff test, the grind test, and, of course, the smoke test.<\/p>\n<p>Inside each Boveda pack are all-natural salts and purified water locked in a semi-permeable membrane\u2014that means Boveda packs lend moisture in the form of pure water vapor when your bud is too dry and suck moisture in when your flower is too wet, keeping your crop at the ideal humidity level. Boveda packs create a monolayer shield of purified water around your bud\u2019s trichomes, so all those precious terps stay locked in.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the video above to see what Leafly found in taking the Boveda \u201cSave the Terps\u201d challenge.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<p>How does the Boveda challenge work?<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-sniff-test\">Sniff test<\/h3>\n<p>Open both jars and give them a whiff.
