Plastic can make your flowers smell.... plasticy.... -
smell.... plastic? what page in Webster is this word located?Comment

I have had enough experiences with plastic bags etc. changing the taste/smell of whatever I have stored in them. Glass is inert and will not change flavor/aroma. Just my opinion.It's not how crazy I am, but how much I enjoy it that makes me dangerous.

Harmful Plastic molecules may end up being smoked after storing in regeulat plastic bags. That's why you can use turkey bags to cure. Anything food grade will do. Plastic containers or Tupperware. Even nalgene BPA free jars will work. Anything BUT regular plastic bags or containersComment

I truly think or know that the chemicals in the plastic are not healthy......They can seep out their porous. Glass I believe is a solid.....?....Plus really, it just looks much better...LOL...Comment

They kind of all have their drawbacks.
Glass is classier. Food grade plastic- like the containers left over from all sorts of food items we are constantly buying and eating, 'should' be fine.
Sealing metal canisters are nice and actually the best in some ways, but don't give a view of the buds.
I use all three but my main containers are one gallon glass pickle jars.
But picking all the glass fragments out of a full jar of bud after I broke one, wasn't a very good time.Comment

Since most of us happily choke down the various GMO food products which are stored in those plastic containers for years on end, those containers should also be fine to use to store our bud for a few months, before we heat it up with butane and turn it into thick clouds of smoke to suck into our precious healthy lungs, I guess...?Last edited by Weasel; 01-20-2017, 07:43 PM.Comment

I think we choked down those various food products because we didn't have any choice, that is how they were packaged. But with our precious weed we do have a choice to make it healthier......Just my thoughts.....for what they are worth....Have a great day...Smoke Up..... -
Sorry to reply only on that single comment you made about "having no choice" in what we eat!! I totally agree we should store our weed better but having no choice over food is just plain marketing drama!Yes you can walk down the chocolate alley and buy the whole row of snickers cause you had a bowl before you went shopping...Or you can go in the fruit section and munch a dozen bananas down...Healthy munchies are the best and build less guilt trips

And...ideally one wants to air tight their terpines.
and yes..they look really nice, are re-usable, and if you are reallllly thrifty: once done with burping and sone with but you can throw in a little 151 Bacardi rum into jar & shake it a lot..then you have a little tincture
