Grove bag comparison

Hey Gow folk!

I saw the Grove bags and, pondering the labor savings and long term storage potential, I decided to try them out. Some of you mentioned the same thing so I thought I would share my experience to inform those on the fence.

Just so you know, the Grove product is priced accordingly, but shipping is astronomical for what is being shipped, so I bought a variety to defray that hit to the head.

A couple of years ago I made a "burp bucket" via the Ganjier/Derek Gilman videos because I could automate it. I used jars before and still store in some.

The claim is you don't need to burp these during cure and they serve as long term storage as well. All without use of humidifier packs needed at any stage. Just keep them in a cool environment temp wise, they take care of the rest.

With the aid of a wine storage fridge on my end, eh, might be onto something here.

So, here is what we are doing-

Half a container of each, going for 4 weeks of cure.

-The bags seal and stay sealed.

-The bucket gets set up with timer to burp 4 times a day for first week, 3 the second , 2 the third and once a day the final week.

-The jar gets a small hygrometer in with it and burps manually, daily.

Here is some of the info provided

The large clear bag the other ones are on is also a Grove "wicket" turkey bag model, for big hauls, but not sealable like others, meant for breathing/burping-

My Christmas grow was some Blueberry so I thought these bags were appropriate- Grove has some of the more popular flavors available-

Well, will update to let you know!

Merry Christmas!!
