that’s a pic of the type I have the plastic sealing ones.

I’ve had them for years & I think the plastic may not be sealing as well as it used to.

thimk I’ll fill it up with water turn it upside down over the sink & see if it’s leaking.

i saw woodl2 had the metal top screw ones.

I’ve avoided the screw ones as the tops metal I thought all glass would be best now am having second opinions witch ones do you prefer

I have both types of jars and I keep going back to the screw top ones because I’m certain they seal air tight every time. The metal latch parts on the cam-lock tops get bent over time resulting in less of a seal and they need tweaking on occasion.

I bought the glass top ones to start with but the last couple of times I bought jars with screw top instead. The screw top ones are far neater and take up less room, so if I need to buy any more I'll probably buy screw top again. I think they were cheaper too.

Iv never had any problems with the glass lids either I still have a glass top jar of ghost train power (my 2nd grow), it's been curing for nearly a year and a half and it's still top notch

@mix Can you not get new rubber seals for your jars, im sure Iv seen ones online somewhere, probably amazon, unless iv just imagined it. It might even been a puncture repair kit for a blow up doll or something for all I know.lol

I use the screw ones because I have a few and I don't want to see the price of a case of the hinged lids, I'd have to get a ninth job. lol I think I have 4 cases+ of the wide mouth. Plus I keep my weed in the dark so their not on display and I don't care. I wash everything jars and lids in warm soapy water and good to go again, no smell.

I use the screw top ones as decanters for day to day as I store larger quantities in plastic buckets. But those rubber seals on the glass lids do deteriorate over time so you could be seeing that starting to happen. 

I feel like a, like a slice of butter... melting on top of a big-ol' pile of flapjacks... yeah.
