Questions About Curing

I am currently drying 3 Nirvana Northern Light auto flowering plants. Each one is fully dried and ready to be put into storage food bags for curing. (I will buy mason jars when my non auto plants are done, dont have the cash for them). I have cut one and it was 36 grams which filled half the storage bag up. My question is can I put the buds from the 3 plants into one big bag or should I individually bag them.

I think they should be individually bagged because each plant might have a different smell due to the plants all having different phenotypes (which I have identified).
I am almost positive they should be individually bagged but I need a second opinion. Last time I grew I had all different strains so I have never had this problem. Anyways I would be very grateful for any info given towards my question.

Putting buds in plastic bags in not curing just FYI. Plastic bags dry out buds almost as fast as brown paper sacks and plastic bags also steal your trichomes.....
 
You really should put each strain in separate containers, at least if you are serious about curing. That's the only way to do each strain justice, so you can jugde them.
There will be different smells, but also potency.

So go shopping for glass jars, and get the correct sizes for each strain (each jar should be at least 3/4 full of buds).

Curing different strains in same glass is fine, but I would never do that (what's the point? Personally I would call that storage, not curing (even if it is, technically)).

I just bought 12, quart Ball jars from ralphs (thank god for 24 hours) anyways ($17.99 not bad). Now I dont even need the question answered because each plant perfectly fits in each container. :) This will probably change when I harvest my non autos but until then thanks and + rep for that answer. Every website I read about a year ago said plastic zip lock bags work fine.

That's actually 7 dollars more then 12-12 oz wide mouth Kerr mason jars at Walmart. But they wil last you forever and YOU NEEDED THEM. Good deal. Cure away.
