id put the mason jars in pvc tubes so the lids wont rust and the deeper your bury them the better, at least 2 feet or below the frost line where its always cool
 
if you can get hold of the blue plastic barrels with the screw on tops the type used by resturants for burned oil you will have a perfect under ground safe its a pain in the ass to dig the hole but its rodent proof and used with good mason jars not even a sniffer dog will find it

I have buried cured herbs over the winter once, ~6 mos. I vacuum sealed a mason jar and then vac sealed the jar inside a vac bag. Everything was fine when I pulled it out 6 mos later. I have contemplated burying a seed stash for long term seems safer than the freezer as long as you can insure dryness. If I was planning real long term I would probably advise something more protective than the vac bag over the mason jar but it worked fine over winter for me.

2 layers of vac seal bags inside a 5 gallon bucket. seal the bucket top with duct tape. wrap the bucket in 2 black garbage bags, tape them up and bury. 18 months later it was as fresh as the day it was put it in. i know folks who have buried things for much longer than the 18 months i did.

Five gal bucket with snap on top, it doesn't have to go too deep either . . . glass, bags, sacks whatever; been using for yrs; gotta bury some more tonight; prolly best to vacuum seal, but not had prob with those not, just check for mold every 2 months & pull those contaminated.

it's called peace of mind . . .

My uncle is a cop. He called me to give me a heads up that the pigs got a warrant to search my house (this was like 3 years ago) and to get everything illegal out NOW. He told me to put everything in jars or plastic bags or both and bury them at least 3 feet deep so Dogs can't smell it...

Got all my shit in jars and bags (including pipes/bong) and buried it in the back yard. Threw some leaves and whatnot over where I had dug... Police came in, searched, found nothing, got the dogs, found nothing but the dog was going crazy where my weed had been stored inside...

They never even went in the backyard. Undercover cop car sat down my street on the corner for about a week after the search...

This was back in my coke selling days, they were trying to get me for the coke, not weed.

FYI
Yes, weed can be buried with great success in 5 gal buckets purchased from your local big box store and then buy the lid with the gasket in it. The weed stays very fresh especially if you have cold winters but there is one catch that has happened to me in at least one bucket every year.
When the ground thaws it does so from the top down and that means the snow melt or water/rain can not be soaked into the earth because it is still frozen a few inches below the ground. The water then stays only a few inches under the thawed earth but right around the lid of the bucket.
When the water has no place to go it gets in your bucket and will literally fill your bucket. The gasketed lid is not made for submersion and it will slowly allow the water to get in. The physics behind it is all things want to be balanced (so does your life) so the water is drawn towards the empty bucket. Every year I have at least one bucket full of water but like some one mentioned if you double zip lock you are still safe. Well, sort of because the zip lock bags contain air and the will float to the top and push the lid of the bucket off and possibly unearth the lid so it can ruin your security.
PEACE

CachingTechniques

CachingTechniques

cached, caching, caches
To hide or store in a cache.

CACHE:A place for concealment and safekeeping, as of valuables.

Caching is the process of hiding equipment or materials in a secure storage place with the view to future recovery for operational use.

Security factors, such as cover for the caching party, sterility of the items cached, and removal of even the slightest trace of the caching operations are vital.

Highly important, too, are the technical factors that govern the preservation of the items in usable condition and the recording of data essential for recovery.

Successful caching entails careful adherence to the basic principles of clandestine operations, as well as familiarity with the technicalities of caching.

"The Art of the Cache"
http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=20928
Cache Security:
When you look for a cache location, consider that you will need a "cover for action" to explain your presence in the area.
If you jog cross country, go on hikes, bike or four wheel drive you have it made.
The cache location must have terrain or vegetation cover to conceal your loading and unloading it: forget the "cover of darkness", in this era of Night Vision Googles that is a thing of the past.

I've buried pretty pieces of metal before. ;) :)
Heat sealed "Seal-A Meal" type bags work very well as far as readily available waterproof bags are concerned when caching objects. Dry rice inside will act as a desiccant/ dehumidifying agent if required when burying things that might rust.
