Jars, or vaults, or gauges, basically are pools of funds with an associated strategy for maximising returns on the asset. When a user put his LP tokens into the jar, one will receive a pickle receipt for that specific LP which can be claimed at a later date along with the accrued earnings. The strategy involves selling specific tokens to be sold and increase the LP amount.
When depositing, there will be 2 transactions, one to approve and the other to deposit. When a user has deposited to the jar, that's it! The compounding (selling the specific rewards) is automatic. Some jar strategies have daily compounding, some may have a few days to be compounded due to low amount of balances.
