After break-in and adjustments, reeds have to play in and should also be stored in the same air space, IMHO ... I don't try to isolate reeds from the performance/practice space. And, don't leave them in a closed clarinet case, except for brief transportation, because the case has usually higher humidity.
Every time I tried to isolate reeds in a "plastic bubble" and later bring them out, they change, and usually not for the better.
Unless you can figure out some way to play your reeds while in a plastic zip-lock bag, just leave them out in the open space you make music in ... if you are having multiple rehearsals and always have the same stand (an no one will mess with your stuff), leave them on your stand or chair and let them get used to the hall or rehearsal room (in a reed holder, of course).
