I am probably overthinking this, but I'm looking to get a set of decent jars for storing flower and don't want to end up with a bunch of jars that are too big or too small. I could use some advice on appropriate sizes.

Picking two random vendors, these are quantities they have and the jar size I guessed would be appropriate for that amount. Are these pretty close?

Quantity Jar Size
1 g 15 ml
2 g 30 ml
3.5 g 50 ml
4 g 50 ml
7 g 100 ml
8 g 100 ml
14 g 250 ml
16 g 250 ml
28 g 500 ml

In my experience 1 cup mason jars comfortably hold 7g of flower buds

I recently squeezed 30g into 500ml which didn’t leave much room. Still gaps between the buds, so it’s not all sandwiched together, but definitely wouldn’t have wanted to go any smaller.

I'm currently working on a humidity pack insert for Mason Jars and other air-tight containers. Besides regular-mouth mason jars, what other size containers would most interest people? Are wide-mouth mason jars a popular option?

I dry vape, so I'm also planning on getting 5 ml jars to store ground bud in. ~4 of those inside of a Pelican 1050 Micro Case (already have this, might be better options if I didn't), in with my vape and other supplies.

If a humidity pack inside of the Pelican would help, I think it's about 1 L empty volume.
