you can if its a 3 gallon bag. the only purpose is to make it more manageable.
i find it easier to move a 3gallon bag with 1gal of water in it to change, rather than a 4gal rubber maid container. i find that its easier so it takes less time to change water & i can do it more often.

From what I can tell there are few disadvantages to water curing except your bud won't look as good. But in exchange it does wash out impurities and things you don't need to smoke. If I were a heavy smoker it's probably the best way to go for my lungs. I don't smoke much really so I'm not too worried about it. Plus, I wanted to keep it simple. But I could definitely see water curing in the future.

i just emptied out the ole ziplock bag today and decided that it was good enough. It has been 4days of changing the water 2/3 times a day. i balled all of the wet mass up tightly together to squeeze out as much water as possible. i then spread it all back out and fluffed the buds out really nicely to dry on a suspended piece of screen.
i quick dried one in the microwave. it took 90 seconds, but the bud didnt taste leafy @ all and was VERY smooth while taking big ass mofo rips off my water bong.
it made me think a bit and i made a pump and valve design on a bowl lid so that it blows air into the bowl and stem making the bong basically smoke itself..... i msy develop another decent looking proto-type that dosent involve duct tape holding it together and get it patented
