Where do you store the jars?
-
My storage is currently in a kitchen cupboard, which isn't the most ideal location, but it's handy. However, it's not suitable for extended periods, particularly beyond six months.
I'm searching for a spot that maintains a consistent cool temperature, yet is easily accessible.
I'm at a loss!

The main message is about a secured file cabinet that's been padded with cork sheets on the bottom and sides. There's also an inquiry about why cork was specifically chosen for this purpose.

A certain individual suggested that their hallway includes an area with 2 doors above, featuring shelves, and 4 large drawers below, similar to a linen closet, a feature not commonly found in modern homes. These drawers conveniently accommodate 7 rows of mason jars, each row 5 jars deep. The upper shelves are suitable for storing 1/2 gallon jars. The area maintains a steady temperature and humidity level. Perhaps a standalone cabinet or cupboard of similar size to a large gun safe or small refrigerator might be a good alternative for you?
This person noted that upon inspection, their storage area has an aroma similar to laundry detergent, which seems to be the most suitable choice at the moment. They plan to clean the area and conduct a trial run for about a week, despite their apprehension about the detergent-like smell. They expressed their gratitude for the advice.

The original message emphasizes an interest in trying new varieties to compare with previous ones, helping to decide if a particular type merits another cultivation. This approach also serves to confirm the quality of the existing reserves. The text further describes their personal interpretation of 'old' and 'new', stating that fresh products can be harsh. They argue that a one-month cure improves the product, a three-month cure is of good quality, and a six-month cure is exceptional, though they usually deplete their supply after three months.

The sentiment expressed is an agreement with the addictiveness of the taste of fresh terps. While there's a recognition that aged flowers can be just as enjoyable, there's always a desire to experience new flavors.

Today, I plan to act like a store owner and arrange all my jars in a chronological manner, with the older items in the front and the new ones at the back. This way, the eager buyer (which is me) will reach for the older stock first. While this might seem like a logical strategy to many, it doesn't consider the nuances of tastes and aromas.

Firstly, it's quite a fortunate situation to have, as not everyone is either fortunate enough or adept enough to maintain several jars for an extended period. I personally favor using either the bottom drawer in my bedroom or beneath the kitchen sink, essentially any area that's dark and cool. I avoid keeping anything in elevated areas or close to a light source. My drawer has the capacity to accommodate 16 quart jars, and indeed, I'm fortunate enough to be in this situation. As to whether I'm skilled, that's debatable, but it's definitely a work in progress.

The main message here is about the individual's fortunate and perhaps skilled situation of having multiple jars for long-term storage. They favor places that are dark and cool for storage, like a bottom drawer in their bedroom or under the kitchen sink. They avoid storing anything in high places or near light sources. Their drawer can accommodate up to 16 quart jars, which they consider themselves lucky to have. They are uncertain if their ability to do this is a result of skill or not, but they see it as an ongoing process.

The main idea is about the preference to sample new varieties to compare with previous ones, in order to determine if future cultivation of the same variant is worthwhile. This ensures confidence that the existing collection is still of good quality. There's also an agreement on the addictive nature of the fresh flavors.

The rationale behind using cork was to eliminate any clattering noises between glass and metal, and to soften the sound of the cabinet drawer when opened or closed. Additionally, regulating temperature fluctuations was an attractive feature. Since I had leftover cork from a previous project, I decided to utilize it. Looking back, it might have been a costly choice, but it added a pleasant aesthetic. Other materials like thick fabric or foam could have served the same practical function, but they wouldn't have looked as appealing.

The text emphasizes the importance of trying out new things to make informed decisions about their value compared to existing options. A particular focus is given to the context of growing strains, where tasting new varieties becomes a method of validating the quality of the previously stored stock. The text also highlights an agreement with a shared sentiment of being drawn to the flavor of freshly grown strains.

Today, I plan to act as a store owner and organize my jars in order of age, placing the oldest at the front and the newest at the back. This strategy ensures that I, as an eager consumer, reach for the older items first. Although this may seem like basic logic to many, it fails to consider the nuances of tastes and flavors. I personally enjoy sampling new items to compare them with older ones, which helps me determine whether it's worthwhile to cultivate the same variety again. This practice also reassures me that my older stock is still of high quality.

The speaker shared about a unique feature in their hallway - a storage area with two shelves on top and four large drawers below, something akin to a linen closet, which seems to be missing in newer homes. These drawers are spacious enough to hold 7 rows of mason jars, filled 5 jars deep, while the upper shelves can accommodate half-gallon jars, maintaining a stable temperature and humidity. They suggested that a freestanding cabinet or a cupboard of a size similar to a large gun safe or a small refrigerator might be an alternative solution for others. They also noted a laundry detergent-like smell coming from their storage area, which seems to be the most suitable option currently. They plan to clean it and test its suitability over a week, although they are wary of the soapy odors. They expressed gratitude at the end.

Beneath my sleeping area, or inside a cupboard in my wardrobe.

There's a particular area in my corridor that features two upper doors with shelving, and four substantial drawers below. It could be a linen closet, a feature not commonly found in modern homes. The drawers are ideally sized to accommodate seven rows of mason jars, each row five jars deep. The upper shelves can suitably hold half-gallon jars, with stable temperature and humidity. Perhaps a standalone cabinet or pantry could be a suitable alternative for you? A piece of furniture roughly the size of a large gun safe or a small fridge might be ideal.

Indeed, I share the same sentiment - the flavor of those fresh terps is simply irresistible. While I do appreciate the quality of aged flowers, there's always something exciting about trying new flavors.

Today, I plan to play the role of a store owner and arrange all my jars chronologically, moving the old stock to the front and the new ones to the back. This way, the eager buyer (which is me) will reach for the older items first. For many, this might seem like basic logic, but such reasoning doesn't often consider aspects like terpenes and flavors.
-
The main idea being expressed is the enjoyment derived from sampling new varieties, as it allows for a comparison with previously tried varieties and helps in determining whether the strain is worth cultivating again. This process gives reassurance that the quality of the existing collection is still top-notch. The taste of these new flavors can indeed be quite captivating.

My current storage spot for it is in a kitchen cupboard; it's not ideal, but it's handy. However, it's not suitable for extended periods, specifically beyond six months.
I'm searching for a location that maintains a consistent, cool temperature, yet is easily accessible.
I'm puzzled!
