How to choose the perfect weed jar for your buds
It is important to choose the right glass cannabis jar for your buds. When choosing glass jars, the most important thing to consider is the quantity you want to store and time. If you consume just a small amount of weed once in a while, the small jar also known as X-small can be perfect for you.
If your consumption is about ¼ to ½ every few weeks, the medium or Large 420 jar can be ideal for you. If you want to store larger quantities of weed, the Large Wide Mouth, the XL UV, or the Latch Top jar will be ideal for you. For frequent users, the gallon jars or glass apothecary jars will be ideal for you.
Choosing the perfect cannabis jar based on size
If you want to store weed for longer, you need to consider the airspace inside the cannabis glass jar. After every use, you will leave more airspace inside. Your best solution is to choose several sizes of glass jars to keep your weed airtight. If you want to store weed for a longer time, a Boveda Humidifier pack can help keep the moisture regulated to keep cannabis fresh for longer.
Choosing glass jars based on storage conditions
You could be storing weed in a place frequented by people. You may decide to conceal your products or let everyone see them. If you want to conceal, a UV or Amber Screw Top Jar will be excellent for you. If you don’t mind everyone seeing your products, the Pop Top OR Wide Mouth Jar will be perfect for you.
Choosing glass jar cannabis based on design
When you have chosen your perfect size and storage conditions, you can choose your ideal design from a list of 24 designs. You have a choice of customizable jars for branding, different colors, or transparent glass jars.
How much cannabis fits in a jar?
When buying a glass cannabis jar, consider the amount of weed that you want to fit in the jar. How much space you need is determined by your product density and moisture level. Each weed strain yields different densities. A denser product requires less space while a lighter product requires more space.
Here is a recommended list based on the amount of cannabis you are storing:
- gram cannabis – 2 oz. jar or 13 Dram Pop Top
- 4 g to 7 g – 5 oz. jar or 30 Dram Pop Top
- 0 g – 6 to 8 oz. jar or 60 Dram Pop Top
The recommended humidity in weed should be 59% to 63%. When it’s more, it attracts mold and when it’s lesser, your cannabis will dry out. Humidity packs help maintain the right humidity level in weed products.
The Boveda Packs provide a humid condition within the cannabis storage to keep moisture at the right levels. They are available in any size that fits your storage solution. When properly stored, dried weed flowers can stay fresh for up to 12 months. Well-preserved weed oils can stay fresh for over 1 year while edibles stay fresh for up to 7 days.

By choosing the right size, design, and type of glass jar, you can ensure your cannabis stays fresh for up to 18 months. Remember to consider factors such as the amount of cannabis you’re storing, desired humidity levels, and storage conditions when selecting your ideal jar.
