Very large drying and curing ideas. HELP

ok im going to be harvesting roughly 800 pounds. i have no clue how to dry and cure this kind of weight. help and ideas please

Drying shouldn't be a problem. Just find a few rooms w/ temp control and get to hanging. Curing now...that's going to take a lot of jars. I'd just try to find the biggest jars I can. Pickles come in big jars. Man, what a problem to have. I wish I had more ideas. I just had to chime in. 800 pounds?!!!

800lbs? Got pics to prove this?

yea its alot lol. do you think that much drying bud is going to stink up the area?

havent grown it yet webb. did a 500 pound 3 years ago. but i didnt dry it i grew the crop for sixty grand. waiting for outdoor grow season then i will have many many many many pics

cool, i wanna see that how u gunna hide it?

hahaha i jus said i havent grown it yet lol waitin on last frost...way to long lol

For that larger of an amount, yous buckets to cure it. It doesn't need to be jars..

Like anybody cures 800lbs of smoke.

Hung to dry in the woods then thrown into a trash compactor.

We call it swhag or brickweed.

ok so im wanting to put it in lots and lots of big mason jars. once the bud is cured do i have to worry about mold?

After it's trimmed and dried, I'd put it into 800 turkey bags and do the curing in them - open them regularly, fluff it around a bit, let them sit open for a few, close, repeat, then adjust final weights after cure. After they're done, I'd store them in a temp/humidity controlled room.

You are going to need alot of help and space.... CLOTHES LINES INSIDE???

another thing. when it comes to curing in jars how do i stop it from getting mold. can i just leave the jars and not open them? and how bad is my house gonna stink

800lbs?! What are you going to be growing 800 plants?

I'm thinking about the cubic volume of 800 uncompressed pounds of weed and it looks to me like it would FILL an average bedroom. floor to ceiling, wall to wall. You can't put 800 pounds of weed in mason jars. Where are you going to get the jars? They'll cost you about 2000 dollars. They'll just make the weed take up that much more room. You need more like 55 gallon barrels lol. Turkey roasting bags cost 3-7 dollars each, and they won't hold a pound. . . .

Sensible? Turkey bags don't hold a pound? The bigger ones probably would hold 2 lbs., and I know from experience (and I assumed everyone growing pounds ought to know) that the smaller ones certainly do hold a lb. just fine. And, turkey bags for 3-7 dollars each!? LOL. Are they gold plated?
The grocery store sells a 5 pack of them for a few bucks. My local hydro store sells a 25 pack for $14. Probably they're much cheaper when you buy hundreds of them.

You're really going to be storing 800 lbs in your house? I assumed you were going to be way out in the hills somewhere and would have some sort of barn or big shed that you'd be working in.

could i cure and dry all of the buds in like a big plastic storage bin?

Cure maybe (if the bin had a really tight seal), but not dry. Trying to dry in a bin sounds like a recipe for mold IMO.

I don't mean any offense, but it sounds like you have some experience with some aspects of growing and limited experience with other parts. IMO, you ought to do some smaller grows - start to finish - before taking on something so huge.
