Try dropping a 4 liter glass jar full of prime bud. It's refreshing like a face full of ammonia.

Sorry I wrote my next post before I saw this.

OK ... don't do that.

I used to use glass mason jars, but they didn't hold much bud. Now that I have up to 3 pounds on hand at any given time, I use plastic Folger's coffee cans. They are air tight with no smell leaks, easy to access, hold a qp of bud and last seemingly forever. Good shit...

Say you have a dozen or more such jars and you are actively burping them and so on, it's easy to slip. I was harvesting 8 plants every 6 weeks for most of last year. The jars were drudgery.

I like my jars. They're paid for and pretty much indestructible. I also use them for making tincture.

Can't agree with indestructible but agree with the rest.

I agree. I've dropped a jar before. Most of it was fine.....I wouldn't smoke it because of the possibility of glass in it. But I did do a alcohol wash and used the oil after filtering.

Not trying to be a shit here ... but that's like not being a fan of Hyundai's cause you drove one into a pole.

Thanks for the feedback on both sides. I'm guessing many folks have a bevy of storage containers they've tried/continue to use in both plastic and glass. I know I do. I used the sealable plastic containers for years with an oven bag tied off inside for good measure. They hold a good bit of pot.
I also have too many Mason Jars.

Each method works "OK". IMO, certain weed just stores better than others. Both methods do allow quite a bit of degradation.

With a decent amount of weed to deal with yearly...I don't burp in jars/etc...I slow dry before I jar and I don't jar too early. If my garage is cool and I can stay around 60F I'll just let it hang. If it's too warm I will use large plastic bags to put entire stems into and slow it down that way.

We have an embarrassingly small carbon footprint here for Americans :rolleyes:

so I have no guilt buying a few Grove bags to see how they perform. :peace:

Yes well you took the military class in destruction so pretty much for the rest of us and the outlier (looking at you @shnkrmn ) that prove the rule :lol:

The actual physics of it was I had too many Hyundais and tried to park them all on the same high shelf. The last on on toppled the first one off ar the other end of the shelf from a height of 5 feet or so. Like one of those warehouse forklift fail videos we've all seen.

DeadHeadX · 2024-08-06T04:17:57-0600

I’ve been using grove bags lately too. Main plus is no need to burp during curing. This is especially important and comforting when I know I’ll be away for a bit. Downside is that they do show enough wear after a few rounds that I no longer trust them.

Good morning, happy Tuesday.

Kinda dragging my ass after that long weekend. Lots of rain today.

That's OK ... I enjoy the solitude.

I'm with ya still

Morning

Stiickygreen · 2024-08-06T06:14:38-0600

Mornin'.

Again....thanks for the input everyone. Glad to see there are others as set in their ways (and as jaded...LOL). The jars do sit here on the bar nicely. Probably better than a series of bags would. Ah...variety. Gonna be the name of the game this year. Hopefully there's some terpy ladies in this huge mix. Time will tell.

Showers/boomers here yesterday afternoon/into the night. Went from 92F to 64F in about 10 minutes. .4" of rain. 80% chance today for a repeat. Looks good for the next 10 days. Back to around 80 (normal) and cooler 50's at night. Bye bye 90's. At least it's a dry heat...like yer oven.

Canned the first round of Dilly Beans last night. We are on the brink of a nice take there. Blooms everywhere. I think they like being treated like weed as far as ferts go. Ditto 'maters. Heavy vines. I think the OCD on pH adjustments this year has been a good experiment. They like the 6-.5 better than the 8.4 straight out of the hose, for sure. No biggie now that I have it all down/know how much to put in each bucket to hit the mark. >>>Squirt<<<

Glass is non toxic, easily and economically recycled. But it cuts when broken and stupid people can't have that. Hell if nothing hurt stupid humans we'd be up to our eyeballs in them. Oh wait. Never mind just keep pounding out more plastic .

Good morning. Heading out to decide if I have it in me to compete in the club championship this weekend. Probably not, I've been sick and not playing much this year. Still, it's a nice cool day, my wife is playing, which is a bonus, and anything can happen.

Jeffislovinlife · 2024-08-06T06:30:54-0600

Coffee to all may you have a great day and a better night

Good luck and vape hard. I heard it improves coordination :eyesmoke:

Most of all enjoy the outdoors for me. In the Mojave you don't really leave your house after the sun is up except for a quick dash to a pre-cooled car to go to an air conditioned place this month. So you're living outside for 2 now! Enjoy that for me. Also I'm very competitive so please win that thing, for me too, thanks!

We had 2.5 inches of rain overnight and it was 58 degrees at dawn. Almost feels like fall in the air.

It sounds fabulous. We hit 123 yesterday. I'm careful about allowing the sunlight to hit me lest I melt.
