Since the friend showed me how to vacuum seal using the canning jars, I've been getting ready to do that with part of this year's crop.
But when I start cramming buds into the 1 1/2 pint jars that have the bigger mouth, it becomes obvious they will only hold so much.
Also, vacuums being what they are, and 15 psi being what it is, I'm reluctant to "go big" on a vacuum sealed container.
If you vacuum seal a jar with a 6 inch diameter bottom, that's about 28 square inches. = 420 Pounds !!! force on the bottom.
Has anybody ever tried that ?
Would like to find a way to store the buds without air, and without crushing them.
Something easier than storing them in outer space.
