How Big Are Your Jugs?

[lime73]

Does size really matter ?



1) What is the largest jug/jar/container, you've used to cure in?

2) Was it made of Glass/plastic/metal/paper?

3) What's you preferred method to cure?

I'm thinking of using a few larger glass jars, to do my cure in, instead of a bunch of smaller ones...thoughts?

I'm using 1 gallon this time- glass with plastic lids (never touches them anyways).... I cut little rectangles out of the lids to mount hygrometers in there.

Turkey bags, then I vac seal for long term.

I use 1 gallon Cvaults, stainless steel. Dry to 66%-56% then cure in the Cvaults to 62%.

Approx how many oz's can you put/ per jar?

Dry or wet? That wedding cake jar has about 6 oz in it. I probably wouldn't go over 8-9 oz dry weight in one but that really depends on how dense the nug is.

Dry.
Wow awesome thank you! Gives me a good size /weight reference for pic.

I got 4 of them, so should be enough...

What do you with the vac sealed bags? Freezer?

If it doesn’t move as fast as expected then yes they go into the freezer.

2.5 gallon food grade pails from peavy mart, use 1L wide mouth berNARden jars as well. Shit, the peavy mart yard bags are great for trim. I would buy CVaults but rather spend on growing it. I never really found large glass that ticked my fancy in the sealing department. 5 gallon pails with those pet food lids.. I’m going to try that next on 2.5 gal pails. Advertising air tight. Mentioned the bag because I have 2lbs on branch in one of these sitting in my 60/60 room, going on a month plus.

I'm an A cup, but I use quart Mason jars to store my weed.

 

[DarkWeb]

Used to use glass mason jars and still do to to a point. But I started using vac n seal bags..... don't vac just seal though then put in black 5gal buckets with screw top lids.
