My environment was 64F and 35% - 40% RH where the bags were left to cure. I would think the issue is the low RH slowly taking all the moisture from the bag. Maybe 50- 60% RH would give better results. But if you can, throw a bag or two in a really dry environment. Here on the east coast it’s dry as fuck in the winter.
Gotta pay for that universal health care somehow.
I bitch about the tax we pay in Nova Scotia because its 15% on everything except some food. .....BUT....My wife has had cancer twice & had a Gaul Bladder removed with no cost to us. I've had 2 hips replaced, a dozen broken bones over the years with rods still in place and I didn't pay for any of it,,,,well at least not on the spot..........
Well I feel a little better now not being the only guy who dropped over $70 on bags.

We don't have a local store for most of the things I need. The $19 for my order was the lowest shipping option they offered me.
My orders are usually big and on the expensive side too considering I don’t reuse the bags. 100 1/4lb bags at a time.Yeah it's around ~150 every time I Grove Bag up but I usually grab about 60 bags. Worth every single damn penny imo for the twice a year I need to stock up and the amount of product it packages.
Better yet, my local hydro store carries these and I don't even have to pay shipping
Why is that? I was expecting to, am I making a mistake?
Maybe due to heat sealing? If you go that route, doesn’t that turn them into 1 time use bags? Thats my guess anyway. I’m also planning on reusing mine (though I did order more)
They can be heat sealed twice.
A few reasons. Mainly I don’t like mixing my strains, pheno’s etc because they leave behind their residue which contaminates what is being put in to the bag. For instance I don’t want to pull out my lemon haze that has the resin heads all over it from an Indica I previously had in the bag.
Definitely more than twice! If you're tight with the seals and cuts you can push 5x.
way more than twice at least on the big 1lb bags. there is plenty of room to get at least 4-5 seals from one bag. seal it clean near the top, cut that off, seal the next part. if you do it nice and tight, you can get easily get more than twice imo.
To me it's not that expensive, but i don't buy 40 small bags. spent 20 i think on two 1lb bags. for me it's more of a time saver not using jars. never heard of a gamma container, just looked it up, the advantage over grove bags from this is the tech in the grove bags with gas exchange. there is no "tech" in a gamma containers. it's just a container. For me the costs are very low, lower than buying a bunch of mason jars by themself, even before buying any humid packs or RH meters for each jar if someone goes that route.
I think we would be hard pressed to find a grower who prefers to burp dozens of mason jars daily. The price for each Grove bag seems fair and would be awesome to have if you had to go out of town right after a grow. In the long run the shipping is going to eat at you and it's an additional thing you have to remember to buy. Some might argue that a sealed container is preferable to a breathable one but I really don't know and I'm sure it depends on a variety of variables. The technology information section on the Grove site is down for me right now so I can't really see exactly how they work.
Yeah we have 8% sales tax plus state income tax that starts at 4% and goes up to 11%, plus federal income tax that ranges from 10% to almost 40% depending on your tax bracket and how you file. And universal health care? HAHAHAHA. Americans seem to think it's not doable or are afraid of socialism or something... no problem with making insurance companies and big pharma rich tho... don't get me started on that rant.I bitch about the tax we pay in Nova Scotia because its 15% on everything except some food. .....BUT....My wife has had cancer twice & had a Gaul Bladder removed with no cost to us.
