Curing question

Hey i have a little question about what containers i can use to cure my buds.
i just harvested my first grow and ended up with a little more bud than i thought.

there's a link to my harvest thread.
I don't think i can find enough jars to contain all that bud so i was wondering what else i could use. Zip-lock bags? essentially isn't that doing the same thing as using glass jars? any other inexpensive methods?

So i asked my self the same question like an hour ago so i bailed out to walmart and picked up a bunch of the biggest rubber made food containers available. something like 2.5 gallon rubbermaid food containers that are air tight. no, i wouldnt use baggies to cure, it just doesnt work aswell.

They sale glass jars at walmart too. The regular mason jars and also the the ones with pop lids, but the pop ones are a tad expensive.

anything air tight will work.
the only problem using ziploc bags would be when moisture gathers on the sides of the bags while theyre in touching the buds, could start to mold or make flat spots on your buds.

tupperware isnt too expensive, and it comes in so many shapes and sizes you ota be able to find something affordable and large enough if you look around. just make sure its airtight

oh yea, those are some sweet buds, fat and chunky lookin.

The few times I bother to purchase grocery store pasta sauce, I get Classico. It comes in Mason jars. I always save them for drinking glasses. As a result, I just happen to have enough to cure my bud in. Cheers.

You don't cure in plastic, unless you like the taste of plastic. Goosecomander- harvest time glass ware, awesome.

Man I stack that pasta sauce every night, people eat the shit out of that stuff, and juice too.

Some plastic will leave an odor and or taste and others will not. The problem is unless you have some friend who has used a plastic container and knows it does not leave an odor and or taste and lets you use it you are taking a real gamble picking plastic to cure in.

Just ask anywhere you go for canning jars, they are made for pickling, and canning jellys and such.
