What Happens If You Vape An Expired Cart

What happens if you vape an expired cart?
Generally speaking, vape users aren’t going to suffer major consequences when they use an expired cart. Just because the safety risk is low, however, doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.

Expired cannabis oil lacks potency and flavor. It may even come with an unpleasant smell—or candyland big chief no smell—from degraded terpenes. A bad-tasting, low-potency weed vape isn’t going to offer a great high or a positive overall experience.

It’s worth noting that an expired weed cart could grow mold. This is more likely if the cart has been improperly stored for an extended period of time after being used. Temperature can have a significant effect on mold growth. Warmth encourages mold and bacteria to thrive.

On top of the health risk that comes with inhaling mold spores, it won’t be enjoyable. Mold tastes awful and may contribute to lung-related illnesses—all in all, it’s better to accept the loss and dispose of the cart.


What does an expired cart look like?
When determining whether a THC or CBD cart looks expired, try to recall its appearance when you purchased it. If the color or transparency has changed, this could be a warning sign that the cart has gone bad.
