Can you use plastic containers to store while curing in beginning ? Or so you have to use glass mason jars? My neighbor has huge yield one of theirs is called captain America that’s how large it is. And thinking of using a plastic bin to cure is that gonna work?

Glass jars are best but Not feasible for all, many large scale growers use tubs

You absolutely should use plastic before jarring.

But plastic storage totes from Walmart/home depot? Heeeeeell no. Food grade plastic only. 5 Gallon buckets with the gamma omega lids or whatever they're called are popular.

Black with yellow lid from HD are the ones I’ve seen used often.

I’ve never used plastic before jarring personally. Once dried and trimmed straight to jars.

I use plastic food storage containers, trichomes stick but no more that glass jars. Jars probably seal better tho.

I should add I hang dry 7 to 10 days then segment it into brown paper shopping bags for 10 to 14 days then dry trim back into paper bags for another 4 to 7 days do final trim straight into glass jars 2 Oz each jar seal up and starting the burping game for 14 to 28 days then seal n start the curing game for at least 3 to 4 weeks depending on strain just my way of doing it doesn't have to be yours . Od .
