Weed oil color and freshness
Before expiring, weed oil will usually appear amber or light yellow in color. It should also be transparent, meaning that you shouldn’t struggle to see completely through it.
On the darker end, weed oil can resemble honey. Lighter cannabis oil may even look like lemonade.
Sometimes, older vape carts will lose their golden hue and take on a duller brown color. In extreme cases, the oil can even grow so dark that it appears almost black. This is caused by oxygen introduced to the oil. The more the oil oxidizes, the darker it gets.
Additionally, pay attention to uniformity in color. High-quality vape oil that hasn’t expired will be a single, uniform shade. If it’s cloudy, toss it.

Is it bad to vape a brown cart?
Although some weed carts are a rich golden color, they will not be dark or dull enough to look brown. As such, brown oil is one of the tell-tale signs of an expired cart.
A brown cart has likely lost much of its potency and flavor due to the breakdown of cannabinoids and terpenes. If you’re looking for a comfortable high and first-rate flavor, stay away from brown weed carts.
Cloudiness and changes in weed oil consistency
Expired cannabis oil may undergo a change in texture or consistency. At the peak of freshness, the oil in your THC, CBD, big chief raspberry runtz or delta 8 cart should move smoothly and evenly when you tilt the cart from side to side. It shouldn’t look like dirty motor oil.
Cloudiness is another dead giveaway that the oil in your vape cart has gone bad. Again, check to see if the oil is a uniform hue with adequate transparency.
Sometimes weed oil begins to crystallize. When this occurs, you’ll find crystals stuck to the interior walls of your cart. Crystallization lets users know, with certainty, that the cannabis or hemp compounds have begun to break down.
