A perfect cure every time

[neal62]

If you are like me, and constantly forget to burp jars, then you can make an automated burning system. I just made one using a bunch of 1/3 gallon jars. The guy in this video drills through the glass but it’s a lot easier just to drill through the cap and run an air hose from the inlet down to the bottom of the jar.

I just started using the half gallon mason jars like this i drilled the glass time will tell TreeFarmerCharlie i have gorilla glue in two and girl scout cookies in two and white widow in two 3 oz in each also i have 7 qt jars of girl scout cookies with a oz in each

Take it all out of jars and leave it for a few hours to dry some more, you want it to equalise in the jars at 62% or below, at 64% you can get mould, trust me I've ruined a crop leaving them in jars with to much moisture, you will get an ammonia smell and the buds will lose there colour and start going darker/brown.

I’m running at 61 this morning, I may have to do a switch a rough of the Gaige and I had to cut and jar a second batch yesterday,. I do however have a bundle of RH meters coming in on Monday. Do you think 61 is good or should I try to drop her a hair more mr green fingers?

Thanks for your post I had everything to do this minus a carbo tip, so I grabbed one of them yesterday, I’m gonna give er a whirl today if I have time. Question though? Even though this burps and puts fresh air in, so you move your week around so it’s not clumping together or am I just overthinking this? Lol

Hello op...just be sure to not stuff the nugs in...leave a little "wiggle room" in the jars...pretty cool idea TreeFarmerCharlie...thanks for sharing.

I’m gonna work on it in the next few days I will be sure to post my results good or bad, I also have a full mason jar of sweet leaves from trimming, would you suggest just putting these in a zip lock and to the freezer for either cbd or hash at a later date?

 

[FastFreddi]

I always dry my trim in a paper bag..once good and dry, into a ziploc freezer bag and into freezer until needed. I make either qwiso or infused coconut oil with mine, so it works either way.

FF, do you limit how much trim you place into a single paper bag?

 

[FastFreddi]

About half full works for me...every few hours give it a little mix up.

Ok so how dry do I want it? Like crumble in your hand dry?

 

[Shaddowsfall64]

thanks !

 

[FastFreddi]

Not dust crumble, just good and dry...and since it goes directly to freezer, it will be fine.

It won’t clump up. Just drop enough in each jar, to fill each one 75%, and don’t push down on it to fit more in. You want each jar to be filled, loosely, at 75% so they air can get to all of it.

You’re welcome. I can’t remember the guy who first thought to do this, but he has a large grow op, and he build a much larger setup that uses food grade 5 gallon buckets with screw on lids. He said he cures something like 2lbs in each bucket, and he gets a perfect cure using this method.

 

[FastFreddi]

Lol when I harvest two pounds I'll try it.
Big when right there....

[TreeFarmerCharlie]

I believe this is the guy who came up with the idea...or at least got the info out for people to see. Just look at the amount of buckets he uses for curing...it looks like he cures 20-30 lbs at a time.

You know it’s a real bitch to find a paper bag around a house now a days

A cardboard box layered with newspaper will work nicely...just ensure good airflow around
