You can't beat the prices at IKEA....They come in a bunch of different sizes from (2oz-68oz)....prices are $2.99-$8.99 http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40065867
ahhhh I LOVE you dude! +rep

Well, a friend apparently had one of the 61oz's and that looks like it might be a little small for my biggest nug.

Ill probably go get another 61oz, and two 68oz ones.


Does it really matter how much jar space the bud takes for the cure, or would a single cola with a good amount of room be okay in a jar like below?





Colas in question attached below:



ALSO, the nugs are dense and coated in resin. How much should I expect them to shrink as far as length and diameter?

Do the pickle jars seal as well as the mason jars?
Yes, you can make a vacuum seal.

You have to wash them well because of the dill pickle smell, I used a touch of bleach and water and shook the jar around then rinsed well. Easy to get and cheap. The Sub Sandwich shops have to throw them out if no one takes them.
