Heres mine set up for the comparison..

One thing to note, zero smell, nothing, nada. These strains a particularly loud. If I open a jar on the bedroom to burp I can smell it downstairs. With these bags, nothing, totally odorless. That in itself is a massive win.
Heres an update on the comparison between jarred and Grove Bags.

The HashplantD was the better comparison as the flowers needed curing. The others had already had a few weeks of burping in the jars so were similar compared to the Grove bags.

Image

At 7 weeks cure the Grove bag sample (pictured) was way superior. The jarred weed needed more burping and was averaging 64%RH where as the Grove bag was at a steady 62%. To be fair, I got a bit lazy on the burping front but I'm convinced the more racy feeling on the jarred bud was down to that. It was great not having to hurt the Grove bags, they just sat there.

I am sold on them.

The cons: I should have got bigger bags. I'm not keen in how the 1/2 bags compressed the bud a bit but that's me being picky.

The only other con is that with all those half ounce bags it makes me look like some sort of dealer! Bugger but less bags next time.

@Tictok I would agree. I think I over filled the oz bags because its a little compressed but that said I am very happy with the outcome. I'd say its similar to jarring if burped correctly but I'm leaning towards bags now tbh.

Brilliant im glad theyre working so well for you. They said leave like 25% empty if i remember correctly. You also dont have to heat seal at all.

Yea i wouldnt heat seal again, and i'd probably go up in size from the 1Zip bags for my storage needs. Will be buying more without a doubt and ditching the jars i think. Im running out of space.
