STIIIZY’s live resin pods are darker than other varieties because they contain pure distillate-free resin. Depending on the strain of the flower used, the color of the oil will appear different since so much of the flower is preserved within the concentrate. This does not affect the potency or quality of the live resin pods. We suggest keeping the live resin pods in the refrigerator to maintain their freshness or in a cool, dark place after use.
