I was just wondering what you guys think are the best type and size of jars for curing are? i.e clip top jars or screw top jars? and 0.5 litre, 1 litre or 1.5 litre jars? etc...
Ball Mason Canning jars. Half Gallon. Add a 62% Boveda pack to each. Should be about 2 dollars each by the case of 6. 12.99 at most Ace hardware store or Walmart. BNW
ok cheers, what are the reasons? as some people say use 'quart size' etc... Also I thought clip top jars would be more airtight because of the plastic seal and strong clip, am I wrong? and one last thing, why the boveda pack, what does this do? I've heard of using a hygrometer but why the boveda pak also?
The half gallon is the largest of the low cost jars Ball sells. Quarts are fine you'll just need a lot more of them. Either the clip or screw work equally well just the screw top is usually cheaper Boveda Humidity control packs make the cure perfect every time and don't let the weed get to dry to where curing stops. I use a 60 gram pack in each jar. BNW
Mason or ball I wouldn’t go to big on the jars try to keep all the buds around the same size in the jars so the moisture is distributed evenly.
Ok man cool, cheers. Does the weight of the Boveda pack matter? Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Yes it does. The very small packs don't do well in a large jar of weed. I've found the 60 gram to work best in the quart or 1/2 gallon jars. Hydroponics Boveda 62% RH, 67 grams - 20 pack brick | Horizen Hydroponics A brick pack of 20 is usually the best deal. BNW
I was about to order some of these but the 60 gram ones are like $4.20 each. Way too expensive. Amazon has the 8 gram ones for $1.43 each though. Are the 8 gram ones good enough for Quart jars? Sent from my LG-LS998 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
