foodsaver vacuum sealer

has anyone tried this? i was just wondering if vacuum packing and freezing was a good way to store weed long-term. and if so, anybody have suggestions on products/techniques to use?

 

A couple leayers of zipclocks would do the same thing, but should work just fine.

 

Ive heard freezing can work pretty well if you want to save alot for along time. I never really need to have my shit baggied up alot though cuz I never have the same sack more then a week or so.

 

Mason jars sitting in a cool, dark place will keep buds perfect......

 

The vacuum sealer works great for bulk storage. Just make sure everything has been dried and cured properly. For a normal stash ^ the mason jars are sweet as the herb gets mellower as the curing time increases.

 

Freezing seems to keep potency OK but makes your weed mighty harsh. Thought I needed a throat transplant. Mason jars or tupperware in a cool dark place works much better,; keeps better cures better holds potency better. for years.

 

it will crush ur buds, not worth it

 

vacuum sealing is excellent!

 

3 years ago I got about an elbow from an outdoor grow, I only use an oz a month, so I put it up using vacuum sealing and freezing it...18 months later I pulled out the last oz and it was as fresh as the day I froze it...I definately recommend this method for long term storage...

Peace...j.b.

 

Mason jars are the best solution for long term storage imo. Cheaper, easier, and the bud tastes so much smoother than freezing or vacuum sealing.

On the other hand, just do what you want to do. It's your herb after all.

 

The food saver works well. I like to ziplock my nugs first and then put them in the vaccum sealer to lock in the stink for transport and what not.

 

vacuum sealing works great, but instead of using the bags, use the mason jar attachment that they usually come with. it sits on top of the mason jar and sucks the air out.

not sure if having most of the air taken out of the mason jar is any better than the mason jar just sealed by hand, but it sure doesn't hurt. i would just think the less air its exposed to the better. it would probably take out some of the humidity too, to cut down on the chance of bud rot for long term

 

Freezing knocks trichomes off. All you need is an air tight jar as others have said. I've kept stuff good for years this way. A vacuum sealer is only when you are smuggling and need to hide smell.

 

my mom asked for a vacuum sealer for christmas. if this is what she had in mind, i completely misjudged her.

 

Just wrap the food completly from the plastic bag and cover all the sides. After that put the food into vacccum sealer and wait for secoonds. Your food is save now.
