[QUOTE="keen smoke, post: 319653, member: 2428"] New jars I just fill from the package. I've only been collecting pipe weed for a few years and have seen no problems yet, but I can't say anything definitive. Since I'm not going to eat it I don't worry too much about sterilization - in fact if my understanding is correct some bacteria is needed for tobacco to age properly. Tobacco companies don't go through sterlization of containment as far as I know - in fact I think they just bail it into big piles or bags and hope/expect bacteria to does work on it. I'd change my tune if I found mold or something in my jars 5-10-20 years from now (which I really think is unlikely or I wouldn't have gone this route), but today that is my answer! ;> [/QUOTE]
