Like I said, If your small town you can ask your local restaurant for jars they usually give them away. Start now so they will likely save a couple of jars a week for you.

Ah like a well experienced pro Going by instinct and experience. Nice.

The meters aren’t so much of a problem. They’re cheap enough. But the JARS?! I’ll be dropping like £100 on jars!

If at 1st you don't succeed....your running about average

Hi everyone,

I’m (optimistically ) anticipating a large yield. I have currently 9 photo plants in my tent. They’re only 2 week old seedlings so I have plenty of time. But I failed to consider how to cure such a large yield.

I see most people cure in jam jars or 1 or 2L mason jars. With about 1-1.5 oz (30ish gram) in a 1L and 3-4oz (60 ish gram) in a 2L.

My 8 plants are critical orange with one euphoria skunk (free seed ).

These are quite high yield anticipated plants and I’m really conscious of bud rot. I’m aware of humidity and temperature. And moisture control packs etc. and keeping a humidity monitor in each jar.

I don’t want to be burping and keeping an eye on 150 little jars. But at the same time I don’t want them all in super massive jars in case of mould so I don’t loose too much in a worst case scenario

For a yield like this - in your individual experiences - how many and what size jars would you recommend? Or perhaps you would recommend something totally different ?

Thanks in advance

The small humidity meters that folks put the in jars are 100% of the time badly calibrated and pointless as they are when new and un calibrated.

I did a test on 50 of them as I knew a seller and was interested not one was right.

good news is you can test yours if you buy one and make it useful

simply fill up a cap with salt and add a drip of water to it. Not so much water that it becomes runny and dissolves just a very small amount.
Pop it in a bag with the cap of salt seal it and put it somewhere dark at room temp like under your bed or something leave it a full 24hrs ( during the last hr it may rise ) so do the full 24hrs , take the meter out it should read 75% if it doesn’t you can mark how much +/-

The 1/2gal Masson jars are what you want. Keep the buds loosely packed in there with lots of air space. Burp 3 times a day for a week or two. Make sure flower is dry enough for stems to snap before jarring or you will destroy terps.

I read some use gamma lids and 5 gal buckets. I harvest, at most, 8oz every 3 weeks so jars are fine for me.
