As the title says, let the discussion begin.

Mason jars are more convenient IMPO (no flopping lid), and could actually be used for canning food when the shit goes down.

EDIT: I forgot it seems to me the mason jars stack better too.

Why do they need to be in opposition of one another? Both are practical for a multitude of purposes. Hence, I'm neutral.

The lids on mason jars can rust a little bit. I'm going to start buying the latch if I can find them at a good price.

I currently use latch jars cause it's all I can find, but I just wanted other persons views.

I use both but do like the latch better cuz the seal is bigger so they last longer. The thin rubber on ball jars drys out after a while and isn't air tight.

I like the mason jars, imo it is just easier to store em. Might try a plunger top on this next harvest though, is there really any difference?

the bigger the better for me, and I can find huge mason jars and huge latch style jars. I use both without thinking about it. I suppose I prefer the latch style jars for my headstash due to ease of getting in/out.

Hot water and dish soap after every use.

Just washed all mine last night.

Only use jars for personal smoke.

Use turkey bags for harvest cuz no jars big enough to fit 1 to 2 lbs. Id have to have 50+ jars if not more to fit it all haha. That would be funny
