Does anyone know if it's ok to store your good nug's in a mason jar in a freezer? Or is the cold storage not a good idea? Appreciate anyone's input.:thumbsup:

im curious myself. I hear all the time that freezing is defineately the best way, and you can even make it potent if you take it out everyday for a few minutes or something, but i personally havent tried even jsut freezing it

I have had some fairly unpleasant encounters with bud kept in freezers. just make sure that no condensation gets anywhere near it.
Freezing it would be ok, as long as it's completely dry. It'll make your trichomes rock hard though, so they'll fall off pretty easily.
Theres no point freezing it, just store it in a mason jar, DRY, in the dark. You can store it for as long as you like really.
No point fussing about with freezing it when theres no need.

well shit, i keep it in the ziplock bags i get em in, n then i put em in a ziplock tubberwear container in a dark spot, but that can only make the weed last for so long right? Like waht if i bought a bigger amount that i couldnt finish smoking in like..a month or twos time? wouldnt it dry out, and maybe start to mold?

As everyone is saying, the freezer isn't necessary... I don't think it would help. Keep the bud sealed in the mason jar in a cool, dark place and it should be good for a while (1-2 months easily). Just make sure the jar is airtight and check if your bud got moldy before you smoke it!

im sure it would be fine, but your bud would certainly dry out a bit though

mason jar is the way to go,but leave the lid off for a short time every few days, thats what i do and if it starts to get too dry i add some fresh mj leaf to help, but if you cant get any leaf im sure there must be something you can use, like when tobacco gets too dry in my tin i use a bit of potato to moistion.

It'll keep longer than 2 months - try 6. I smoked some 6 month old bud from a mate 2 saturdays ago and it was perfect. It was very dry though - but i prefer it nice a dry. Burns alot better. But yeah - 6 months and it was still top notch.

The Jars work great, and Occassionally I will put one end of a Q-Tip that has moisture.(VERY LITTLE) And I will let that sit for 2 to 3 hours in the jar and IT'S just Like Perfect,:thumbsup: not to moist not to dry.

A year ago, I remember seeing a study that said that cannabinoids can keep their potency, the best, for up to two years if stored in a dark place at room temperature.

About 18 months ago I was pondering the same question and I wanted to vacuum seal but not in plastic so I started searching the web and all I could find was blogs of people saying "I wish there were glass vacuum..... to store my...."
So I took a glass mason jar and rigged it with a vacuum pump. It wasn't pretty but it worked.... Fast-forward to today and we have a company in Southern Cal. Where we hand make them. Check it out. BudVac Glass Vacuum Storage Systems for the Medical Industry |Keep it Green! (http://www.budvac.com)
