The air tight jars sound great.

If you can get the air out and keep it dark and cold they will last for a very long time.
The problem is the air and light.
Both cause the thc to breakdown.
Heat will cause this too.

With the 2 lbs I would probably go with the vacum sealed bags and the freezer.

60 - 90 ds the airtight jars will work nicely.

I would use plastic to freeze and glass in the fridge.

I have also read where the plastic will attract the thc trichomes.
So I would only use plastic in the freezer for that reason.

The deep freeze will keep the weed intact and fresh as long as it is dark and there is absolutely no air getting to the weed.

It is imaprative that the weed is completely dry before storage.
Nobody wants moldy weed.

The curing is just finishing of the drying.

The weed can seem bone dry and then you throw it in an airtight jar and a day later it is moist again.

The curing is just evening out the moisture that is left.

The middle of the buds will still be wet but the moisture will work it's way to the outside.

Done correctly you will have uniform buds that are nothing but sticky icky.
