I find that putting a thin film of oil on a reed works really well. A reed needs to be hydrated, but let's not forget that oil has water in it and saliva and condensation still penetrate into the cane if the film of oil isn't too thick. I find that it prevents the reed from getting water logged; from being too hydrated. On the other hand, I'm not so sure that it increases the playing-life of a reed.
I uses lemon oil or thym or rosemary oil in order to kill two birds with one stone: it kills the fungi on the reed and disinfects it. I haven't tried cannabis oil, which, I suspect, gives you the illusion that you play better than you do!
