Oh! The Humanity! Broken Jar!

[Annaresti Red]

Shit.

What a day.

 

[yanoJL]

I had to look at that pic through my fingers.
Sorry, man

 

[Annaresti Red]

Not feeling great. Was a rough one BEFORE this.

Ugh.

 

[Bbailey324]

Unfortunately some days are like that. Shake it off and know that tomorrow will be better!

 

[AroEnglish]

I’m so sorry! Is there a way some of it can be salvaged?

 

[DesertDan]

My condolences.

 

[renfield]

A jar of 1-Q would’ve bounced back up onto the counter just out of spite.

Sorry to see that, Samovar is a great blend. I hope you got to smoke most of the jar before this.

Another reason I prefer Mylar bags for long term storage.

I'm reconsidering my choice on that, as you can imagine.

Haha, I know.

I did not get to smoke too much, just enough to know that I definitely need to try to get more. Very much a favorite.

I tried to salvage some, but after I looked there was a few tiny shards still. I suppose with a filter or something, but I don't know.

 

[Bbailey324]

Maybe a large mesh strainer and give it a good shake to remove the glass shards?

 

[Chasing Embers]

At least there's always more tobacco.

 

[Winnipeger]

Yep. I've done that.

I probably wouldn't have sweated the glass shards, but when that happened to me (on a couple occasions) the tobacco was full of dust and dog hair off the basement floor. One was a jar of Burley Flake #3, which I mostly salvaged, but the latest (a jar of Royal Yacht) went straight in the trash. Most of my cellar is in Mylar now.

P.S. Sorry for your loss. That's not something you can just order more of!

What are some quality bags you suggest and what sizes for 2oz/4oz of leaf?

Thanks!

I'm giving that a try. Thanks for the idea.

 

[huntertrw]

Oh noooooooo!

I bought mine on Amazon. I think Pleasant Grove. Main thing is to get 7 mil thick.

For storing 2oz/4oz of leaf, high-quality Mylar bags from brands like ShieldPro or PackFreshUSA are excellent choices due to their durability and seal integrity. For 2oz, a 4"x6" bag is suitable, while for 4oz, a 6"x9" or 5"x8" bag provides ample space. These sizes ensure minimal air contact and optimal preservation.

Tough duty when you break a jar. Not much you can do other than sweep it up and throw it out,

4x6 is big enough for 2oz/50gram?

It seems so small!
