After reading these posts, my method of drying, hanging then storing in a sealed paper bag for a week then into the mason jars seems like too much work comparatively speaking LOL. Trying Grove Bags next chop!!

Are Grove bags actually good for curing?

Grove bags work great. I hang my branches for 3 or 4 days, trim then into the bags. 2 weeks later into the fridge crisper drawer.
Grove bags suck compared to jars, even their own scientific evidence points out grove bags outperform turkey bags but no mention of glass jars(its because glass is better). Glass jars are much more reusable and shelf stable. Grove bags stored below 60% become super dry, so all my grove bag weed overdrys over time and the jars remain perfect. Stop adding more plastic to landfills by sticking with Glass Jars. I bought 50 grove bags and have used them the past few grows and ditched them this round with 8 bags remaining. So I have used 42 1oz grove bags. Will never buy them again. Never once has the weed in the bag maintained higher terpene levels than the glass jars IME. I am also someone who finds Boveda packs to be a money grab

I've got Grove bags with bud in them from last June, they're just as potent and sticky as when they went in.
I ditched the mason jars , one day I'll make a window or something from them, (think Stig of the Dump, you might need to GTS) They do the job really well but take up space and need a little burping here and there. I'm always so busy and it's something else I don't need to do with Gbags.
As long as you keep them in a relatively stable environment and in the dark, you'll be just fine

We should all meet up and do a blind smell, taste and effect tests to see if jars are better than Grove bags! Anybody in with that?

I use the Velvet Touch 1/4 pound bags only. 1 year old weed in there as fresh as day 1 but I have a wine fridge set to 60 degrees so I can’t speak to improper storage. I’ve been using the same 10 bags for almost 2 years.
