Burping your jars?

[Stoned Redneck]

I use qt jars to store my weed.I vacuum seal them ...Do i need to worry about burping them still ? I would think in a vacuum there would be no chance to grow mold? When the buds just snap off i call them ready ..Any thoughts ,Thanks

Research curing there are lots of threads here covering the subject.

I've never burped vacuum sealed jars. But then again, they don't stay sealed for too long before they're called into duty.

How do I properly dry and cure my harvest?

Keep the drying area dark, the air well circulated and exchanged with fans, the temperatures in the lower 70's and the humidity between 50-60% with a dehumidifier, if necessary. The bud will smoke smoother if it takes around a week for the moisture to evaporate, quicker drying will harshen the...

The burping is to release off-gassing chlorophyll...not mold prevention.

Ah, yes, September of last year. Rolled one up yesterday from a jar with that date on it.

I don't vacuum pack the jars. Never had much luck vacuum sealing canning jars; I have the set-up with the vacuum and the part to put on the jar. After a month of opening the jar every day for a month I put the Boveda pack in and screw the lid down snug. Somewhere in the root cellar is a jar of whatever is left from a plant I harvested in October of 2017.

I can't seem to keep weed around long enough to necessitate vacuum packing or storage any long term kind of way.

My master plan is to reduce the shit down to the point where I can consume it, and store it all in my brain.
Everyone needs to have goals?!

I started using 3.5g buckets for the final dry and cure....soooooo much easier and convenient. I got the easy off lids and once a day I give the bucket a gentle toss and pop the lid off for a minute, fan in some clean air with the lid, pop lid back on. Some buckets are 1/4 full which is fine because it allows more air, but also manages dramatic shifts in RH. And they stack

Explains why curing is necessary as well as an innovative way to do it automatically.
