Integra Boost 55% — Two-Way Humidity Control for Curing and Storage
Integra Boost 55 is a two-way humidity control pack that maintains a consistent 55% relative humidity inside your storage jar, keeping cured flowers fresh, flavourful, and free from mould. It works both ways — releasing moisture when the air inside your jar gets too dry and absorbing it when things get too damp. Drop one in, close the lid, and stop worrying about your stash drying out or going off.
A single crispy, over-dried batch teaches you the lesson fast — proper humidity control isn't optional if you want your flowers to smoke smooth and taste the way they should.
Which Size Do You Need?
Integra Boost 55 comes in two sizes. The choice is straightforward — it depends on how much you're storing:
| Variant | Weight | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 8g pack | 8 grams | Small jars up to roughly 12 grams of flower. Toss one into a standard mason jar or stash container. |
| 67g pack | 67 grams | Larger containers, turkey bags, or curing buckets holding 450g (1 lb) or more. One pack covers the full volume. |
If you're unsure, go bigger. An oversized pack won't push humidity above 55% — the two-way technology caps it there. An undersized pack just runs out faster.
Why 55% Relative Humidity Matters for Stored Flowers
The 55% mark is the sweet spot for long-term flower storage. Below 50%, trichomes become brittle, terpenes evaporate faster, and your material smokes harsh and hot. Above 65%, you're inviting mould — and once mould takes hold, the entire jar is finished. At 55% RH, the cell structure stays intact, terpene profiles hold, and there's not enough moisture for mould spores to colonise.
We get asked about this constantly in the shop: "Why does my stuff taste different after a few weeks in a jar?" Nine times out of ten, it's humidity. An unsealed jar in a Dutch winter can swing from 40% to 70% RH in a single day. That kind of fluctuation degrades quality faster than you'd expect. The Integra Boost 55 acts as a buffer, absorbing those swings and keeping conditions stable inside the jar regardless of what the weather's doing outside.
The difference is noticeable. Material stored at a stable 55% RH for four weeks smells noticeably richer and smokes noticeably smoother than the same batch left in an unregulated jar. It's one of those things you can't un-learn once you've tried it side by side.

What Makes Integra Boost Different from Salt-Based Packs
Most humidity packs on the market — Boveda being the obvious comparison — use a saturated salt solution sealed inside a membrane. They work, but they come with trade-offs. Salt-based packs stiffen as they dry out, making them prone to tearing. If a salt pack rips inside your jar, you've got salt granules on your flowers. Not ideal.
Integra Boost uses a salt-free, plant-based formula. The packs stay pliable throughout their lifespan, which means less risk of tears and zero risk of salt contamination. The included indicator card is a genuine advantage too — it's a separate card that changes colour when the pack is spent. With salt-based alternatives, you're squeezing the pack and guessing. With Integra, you glance at the card. Done.
Honest limitation: Integra packs don't last forever. In a well-sealed jar, an 8g pack typically lasts 2–3 months before the indicator tells you it's time to swap. In a container you open frequently, that drops to 4–6 weeks. Budget for replacements if you're storing long-term — they're cheap enough that it's not a problem, but don't expect one pack to last a year.
Complete your storage setup with airtight stash jars — a proper seal makes your Integra Boost pack last significantly longer. We also carry Integra Boost packs at 62% RH if you prefer a slightly higher humidity for shorter curing periods.
How to Use Integra Boost 55%
- Place your cured flowers into a clean, airtight container — glass mason jars work best. Avoid containers with poor seals, as constant air exchange forces the pack to work overtime and shortens its life.
- Drop one Integra Boost 55 pack on top of or beside your material. For the 8g pack, use one per jar holding up to roughly 12g of flower. For larger quantities, use the 67g pack — one per 450g of stored material.
- Place the replacement indicator card inside the jar alongside the humidity pack. This card is your visual check — no need to open the jar and feel the pack.
- Seal the container and store it in a cool, dark place. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources, which cause temperature fluctuations that work against stable humidity.
- Check the indicator card periodically. When it changes colour (the dot shifts from blue to pink), the pack is exhausted. Remove it and drop in a fresh one.
- Avoid leaving the jar open for extended periods. Every time you open the lid, ambient air rushes in and the pack has to compensate. Quick in, quick out.
