do you mean prolonged exposure to the joint? or the weed b4 you roll it? the cold weather prevents it from molding.... cold weather will not damage it.... you shouldn't keep it rolled up... it could lose it's potency.... its best not to roll it until like b4 Ur gonna smoke....that way it stays preserved till last min... but obviously dnt leave it in the baggy for too long it the heat... THAT will damage it completely... if you are looking to save it for like a long while you should try freezing it... or putting in the fridge... depending...in my opinion... I think in some instances freezing may be the best option, say if you lived in a high humidity area and can't guarantee the moisture content is low enough before curing, I'd be tempted to freeze rather than risk mold.Curing is best for a fuller flavor, but that doesn't make freezing bad, just different. The freezer can be a handy tool as you know for a fact it won't mold, if I ever have to clear away a drying crop before it was propper done, the freezer would be my first thought, I wouldn't give potency loss a second thought because I don't subscribe to it... but yeah... ANYWAYZ... keeping it out in the cold wouldn't really harm it but it also really just depends on the situation.... <and the moisture content....> hope this help... i rant too much....
i smoked so much when i was younger that i can honestly say i was too stoned to remember if the temperature affected my smoko. i don't think it would cause i've never heard of the thc going bad, but i guess i could be wrong. maybe if you left it in the open for an extended period it would lose it's potency.
actually chilling it makes it stay fresher longer.
