Harvest & Curing Storing Your Buds In The Fridge - Open Discussion

[Rebel]

I was wondering if there are any other members who put their Mason jars of bud in the refrigerator? We started doing this recently and within the first few hours we noticed a few positive points!

1) some bud that we had that was over dried. After a few hours in the fridge actually regained moisture. Was no longer crispy/brittle.

2) bud started burning longer/slower in our joints. Dry bud usually burns up quick and doesn't go out often. The over dried bud that was once a fast burning joint became "slow burner."

3) ***The most Important point!!***
The cold fridge seems to enhance the terps! Certain strains such as Chocolope wasn't really tasting like it smelled. After 24 hours in the fridge it DEFINITELY tastes like it smelled now!!

We've also noticed the bud isn't really getting cold. The glass is nearly frozen cold lol and the bud very slightly cool...

We are going to continue to do this from now on. Just thought I'd share.

Interesting. All my jars have silicon sleeves, used mostly for protection. Wonder how they would fair in the refrigerator? I need a bigger fridge. I've been storing mine in a locking 2 drawer filing cabinet in the garage. Pretty cold out there.

I spent some time on google looking this subject up. Apparently it works pretty well. I'm going to be trying it if the over dried bud of mine doesn't recover with the 62% packs in the jars... Hate to have 1/2lb of over dried, flavorless buds, So I've gotta do something, ya' know?

Doesn't hurt to try! If you have a cold environment out there maybe it's already working for you! There's also mini fridges... If you have a small space somewhere and an outlet. Boom! Bud fridge! : smoking:

Yes! I'm telling you with just a few hrs the over dried bud recovered. If you decide to try it let me know how it goes! Please!

Definitely continuing this from now on. My wife is a TERP hound! She's all about taste. And she's over the moon with this new storage method. One strain had lost it's taste over time... The fridge has literally brought it out!

You know sitting in the family room I could hear a "pop" or "boing" in the fridge after putting a room temp jar back in. It's like the cold seals it lol crazy stuff!

I just threw 5 jars into my fridge. Even with the humidity packs, Everything was crispy. Let's see what this does, and what a prolonged period (1 week, then 2) will do.

I bet you even within a few hrs they will feel different.

Also take care not to cram the jars full... We split them up to only out about half full no matter the size... Quart or pint. You wanna leave room for the air... Breathing room as they say..

Awesome! Best of luck Dichoti!

Wonder if I should "burp" the jars while trying the "cold cure".
