Hey Zigs! Ya mon....about 15 yrs. ago i read of a curing method in H.T's. mag on curing. The buds go into plastic grocery bags (about two oz's. per bag ....fold down until almost completly closed,then put that bag inside a paper bag ,then fold that down as well ,but leave a little air in the bag . Put in a warm spot for a few days ,then open and check for smell(should smell like a bowl of ripening fruit.) This exchanges the air in the bag,ya know. This method is more forgiving than jars, as if you miss an opening of the jars ,mould sets in very quickly using jars. Both methods work equally as well ,it's just that i've used this method for a long time and like the results i get from it. After a nice cure has taken place they ,the buds go into mason jars and right to the deep freeze for storage. When i pull a jar out of the freezer for smoking it's just like when i put it in there. I have taken jars out after ,over a yr. and they taste just like the day they were frozen. I must add though ,that this can only work with containers or jars that are made from glass and not plastic as it doesn't have as good a barrier in the deep freeze. Hope this shed a little light on it for you Zig. Cheers bro!
