Glass canning jars with 2 part lids are the best.

I dunno about forever....... I'm not educated enought on the fact to answer completely, but I keep my nugs in an air tight glass jar. My wife and I usually get about 14g a week and by the end of the week the buds are not near as "dank" as they were when we first got them.

I've heard of storing it in the freezer??

Don't store in the freezer! It will make all the trichromes brittle so they break and fall off easier.

Tell your friend he's an idiot, and we said so. Ball jars or Mason jars are the standard!!!

If it's properly cured and in good jars away from light and cool and dry (a lot of ifs) it will last 10 years easy.

How cool would THAT be if ball jars came in the "amber" like pill bottles or beer bottles??

Thoughts on the "tightvac" containers? I've been using them for a few months and they seem to work well. It's food grade plastic...

Clay jars. They are light proof and stay cool.

tin cans, from christmas cookies or whatever, seem to work good for curing( dont have to open daily), but for storage,what that rascally rabbit said.....peace

I have seen wire bail top canning jars in cobalt blue. Awesome but very expensive.
