Ya put the buds in a air tight jar. The whole concept to curing is you stop the drying processs to a crawl. Slowly dried weed is cured weed.

so after you dry it, you stick it in a jar?

Thats correct. 6 to 7 days of dry and then in the jar. It slows the drying down to a crawl.

Weed doesn't increase in potency with age. However, it'll undergo decarboxylation and convert non-psychoactive THC-acid into active THC; however, the same process occurs rapidly when it's burned.

jars like these (glass is best) and vent an hour a day

You can line plastic containers with aluminum foil to keep the crystals from bonding with the porous plastic.

Aluminum foil is not porous, and is highly resistant to fats/oils(lipids, like THC), unlike plastics.
