I use the 1/2 gal jars for trim and buds that I use for edibles. The only issue I have using the big jars for dank bud, is that it always forms into a solid mass of bud.
FWIW I do not like them and I think they are unnecessary. I recommend investing in hygrometers instead and using burping to lower RH and (if needed) adding moist parts of the plant (stems or leaves) to raise RH. Once it stabilizes in the low 60s, it stays there on its own in sealed jars. But quart sized jars, not half-gallon
I also got 2 of the Gallon Amber Ball Mason jars at a local Wally World. Needed a few gallon jars and they seemed like a great idea.
I use Boveda 62's in my jars.
My wife and I surch the second hand stores for wide mouth quart mason jars ( ball ) among outher things,so far I have 14. I replace the lids and seals and washed them well and now have 13 of them full of budðŸ˜. We enjoy the hunt,and they cost next to zip. It may b easer to just go buy a case of new but not nearly as much fun lol
Yard sales and garage sales are where I have stocked up cases of wide mouth jars. Some really old ones too. 2nd hand stores sell them for top dollar around here .
Lol we cann alot of vegetables so we used to buy them by the crate. Tomatoes, pickled okra, pickled zucchini, of course pickled cucumbers, then green and red salsa. So i buy them by the lot full.
Potted $5 for a whole case or even bigger box.
We're talking $.25-.50 a jar or less even. But we keep our eye out, usually not much, then someone will have a ton for cheap. My wife makes jelly and pickled things so we have been stocking up for awhile. Sounds like you have a good source too.
I buy them always on sale..wide mouth usually about $12 at Target etc..Watch out for mason Jars that are cracked..especially where the screw cap threads are..
You will see this on many used jars at those stores. Leaking Mason Jars are bad news..that's one reason to buy new. Ball are normally $1 a dozen cheaper than Kerr)
