I didn't want to spend any more money on this grow but Im not gonna f it up now after all this work, so I might just buy it .. seen some on Amazon for like $10-20 , but I could go the ghetto route and try and go to the flea market.. I bet its mad cheap there.

I got the 3 similar jars in the picture below from Walmart for $4 or $5 each.

walmart has a nice jar selection. 10 bucks for a case of 12 mason jars that will hold an ounce+ each in em.

also dont forget to burp that shit. ie open the jars every now and then.

Yeah, the jars are actually staying open more than closed now because they were drying too quickly in the rack but aren't really dry enough to leave the jars closed for too long. I am slowly transitioning to curing because this is new to me and I don't want to screw it up.

P.S. - Those 1 ounce jars are way too small for my grow! I would need 22 of them.

As soon as my fam isnt sick, (myself included) I plan hanging out with you.

Maybe figure out something to do with all that trim you got

lol. so buy two packs. they have different sized jars. i think they have an even bigger set of 6 but they r too big for my taste. id rather have a ton of little jars than a few big ones. big ones means more bud in them and longer drying and curing time if they are still kinda wet ive found smaller groups of bud dry and cure quicker which means faster smoke time for me. lol..

Good point, but there has to be a good middle ground between many small jars and few large jars, medium jars???
