HighTech curing...

I have been weighing them every few days and keeping a meter in them. They are holding very steady at total weight and humidity. They are staying in the perfect range. So far I'm really impressed.
 
Good to know for now, may look into it in the future... I am in the process of becoming a Caregiver in Michigan, so I will be in the process of scaling up to 72 plants.
 
just thinking out loud......With 72 plants and the cost of those brown mason jars....you’d be best to seriously investigate those bags....$$$. If your yield is even near typical, you’ll need several hundred of them for 1/3 of that crop
 
I haven't seen where those bags are for sale. I saw the website but I don't want to buy 1000. Anyone know of a retailer? Online or otherwise?
 
Keep looking. You can buy single bags. Or contact them by email. They will give you pricing if you can’t find it online.
 
No tests on long term storage results yet. But Just had to say that the aroma of the buds cured in the grove bags is by far the best and strongest smelling buds I've ever smelled. The taste of the buds far surpass the control buds I cured in jars and burped as I always have in the past. The time savings is awesome. . I'll never go back to jars again.

Although I'm not posting much atm due to being so busy I had to give the initial results. I'll post the lab tests as we get them.
 
Just got some oz size bags to try out. Dumped out all my mason jars into them to finish curing. The smell in the bag I'm smoking from has already intensified in smell just in one day. I'll be using the bigger bags on the next harvest since it's all the same strain and I feel like I'll get way more this time. Week 4 in flower so I still have almost 2 months I think. Trying to get my plants a little bigger with each cycle. So far it's working out perfectly but I may end up adding a third 4x4' tent for veg. Still not sure yet but I want to be able to at least fill a quarter pound bag (or 2) with just one plant. I was actually thinking some of these smaller gram or eighth size bags would be great for storing seeds. What do you guys think? It would be impractical to buy a case of 1000 for smaller grows, but I think it would be worth it if they had a smaller package. Ziploc bags have worked fine so far for me but I would imagine you could save seeds almost forever with these so you can have your favorite strains 20 or 30 years from now. Just a thought as I wake and bake.

I had. Not thought about storing seeds in them. I double bag them in ziplock bags and keep them in the bottom drawer of the fridge. So far all seed store that way have popped. But the oldest I've tried was maybe 6 years old.

But you are gonna love those bags. When you open them after awhile the aroma is heavenly. And the taste is much better than what I had in jars. Oh and they just added 10 pound bags. Aim to fill one of those from a 4x4. Lol That would be killer.

I think I'm going to pick up a 10 pack of the 1/4 pound bags and hope to fill at least half of them from my 4x4 & 600w HPS but we'll have to wait and see.
 
I have seeds from years ago in a ziploc bag and stored on a shelf in my grow room. So far they germinate just as good as fresh ones. I'm holding on to them but I haven't been using them since they have males too and I've been getting fresh (female) seeds anyway. Eventually I'll end up doing mother plants for clones, but I like the seed method for now. I'd love to be able to cycle a few different strains for a bit and stock up. Anyway, yeah I'm excited to finally be using the bags. I had some for a while but I didn't see a point in using them for an oz or less. Messed up a bit and hurt my yields. Hoping for better luck on this next harvest.
 
I’m thinking co-op.... we pool together and get a case or 2 of 1000 ...divide the total by the number of pre-paid buyers and presto, we each have a quantity of bags at a decent cost
 
Right! I had the same thought. I still don't know if it would be worth it though. May talk to the company and see if they'd be willing to sell them in a smaller package, or see if I can get a few "samples" sent to me. Then again, 6+ years in a ziploc bag is already good with me too.
 
I can get 1000 easy. If you guys want to join in I'll get 1000 ounce bags and spread the wealth. The bigger ones I'm assuming no one else needs.
