• Use airtight containers like glass jars or vacuum-sealed bags. Ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to avoid moisture absorption and insect infestation.
• Regularly check for signs of spoilage, such as mold, stickiness, or unusual odor. Discard any spoiled Rehmannia glutinosa immediately.
