Default Curing in plastic?
Im just curing some Diesel ryder in a plastic airtight container or tupperwear as is known in the states! I know everyone says glass jars but didnt have any to hand!

Is plastic ok for it? Its been in there a couple of days now curing nicely!

Any reason i should take it out and put it into jars?

The prerequisite is air tightness not what the container is made of, glass does aid in the sweating process though due to its ability to hold heat.

according to the dirt bag (B. thc+r&d) the plastic will steal your trichs, he uses cardboard for drying, then the glass for curing. He has been doing this for five years, I tend too listen, especially since I tried his product. VV

I used several Pizza boxes, stacked, with a fan blowing on them. One layer per box, rotate bottom to top & flip over daily. Worked for me.

I heard that it can tatse of plastic. Explain to me how, as they are made to store food in there, food dosnt tatse of plastic when stored for however long, would be pretty useless if it did. It dosnt smell and its not an absorbant, nothing will be absorbed into the plastic and visa versa.

Of course fresh food is guna tatse better lol! I would take fresh everytime! This is not the point however. Food can be stored in many different things, tins, platics, hung dry ect, but it will taste better fresh! We are talkin about marijuana not food.

You cant tell me when u have food out of a plastic container u can tatse plastic? You must have uber hyper sensitive tatse buds, with the ability to single out plastic xD..kidding, but honestly i cant see the whole world using plastic to store food ect, if it gave off a taste/oder to food/weed.

Honestly i just dosnt make sense that my green would taste of plastic in the slightest. Ive already make my mind up really lol. Just wanted peoples opinions, sorry for the rant!
