Curing In Jar?

[tooldini]

I have some buds I placed in a jar 1 month ago. They smell really strong and look pretty good, so my question is how long should they stay in there before use and how often should I be opening the jars? I just kinda have been opening the jars the last couple weeks like every few days for a minute or 2.

i've read that proper curing in the right temp. and humidity takes upwards of 2 months, everyone has a different view on something like this, but that is what I've seen.

1 month is a good 'baseline' for any strain IMO ( meaning ready to smoke )

I follow BG's harvest/cure tutorial and as he said, after that 1 month cure, It Is Fire !

 

 

You should be good to go now. Maybe the occasional burp. Once or twice a week, and easing back off the burps as a few more weeks pass.

Here's BG's Harvest and Cure Tutorial. It has worked great for me.

Thanks guys I will give that a good reading. I have never been much of a smoker so it is hard for me to tell when things are dried proper and everything but I am learning. Thanks alot

FYI Allot of people like to exhale ( not blow breath in carbon dioxide out ) into the jar then reseal after airing out . The Jelly Jars work great from BALL cause their resealable over and ove the canning jars have a wax seal . . I use Coffee Jars because they have seals built in and I drink allot of instant coffee = free . Nescafe has a great Jar that fits in the honeywell cable safe . I liked the link .

I have 3 different jars. One is a mason canning jar and the other 2 are glass with glass top that pops off with a plastic seal it seems to seal really tight are these OK to use?

Yes...those jars are okay. Any jar is as long as it is air tight.

OK thanks thats kinda what I thought. The growing is the easy part LOL it is the harvest,drying and curing that I have the most problems with. I have done them all good so far but always wonder if it is correct for sure.
