recommend using glass canning jars over the plastic pharmacy cups. Colored glass is even better - black is best, then blue, then amber (all three are hard too find and/or expensive).

Cool, dark place is spot on

I myself use regular Ball 1/2 gallon mason canning jars (if fully cured - packed full; if not fully cured - packed about 3/4), then placed in a large plastic tote, stored in my basement. Just enjoyed some from a harvest this past February- mmm smooth & tasty! :jointsmile:
