Know that moisture is the enemy, just like iron rusting, water helps the THCA decarboxylate. I have had kief from my trim bin that sat for 4 months in very low RH% conditions (teens) and I pressed that kief for rosin at 190F and got shatter consistency because the THCA was not decarbed from all that time sitting. Had the kief been on moist nugs curing at 62% I would have gotten runny oil (decarbed). Of course sitting all that time the terpenes had dissipated and flavor wasn't terpy but the dabs were dank otherwise. I just did it as a test run with my new press since I had the kief laying around.
