Malawi Style Cob Curing.

[Tangwena]

These had no sweat sealed up since Christmas 23 this first one Mulanje Gold is perfect in my book the aroma is funky pine beautiful slightly moist still would be a perfect smoke smooth and tasty.
The high is just starting to work after 10 mins chewing and I'm going to get fucked up for sure ha ha.
Perfect beautiful day to be king of the world or a Zulu King haha.

Then some Mulanje x Malawi Ethiopian from the same grow.
My notes said the buds had a menthol lime aroma.
I shouldn't have but I couldn't help myself. I had to try a bud of this as well ha ha.
God help any humans I come into contact with ha ha.
Animals will be fine they just listen ha ha.

I'd love to roll a spliff of those buds lower left in the above pick.
I can already feel my lips and face getting numb and my ears are ringing its going to be a great day brothers.

Yo! @Tangwena, go! It sound so great to hear your descriptions of the aromas and early sensations " ears are ringing..." can't be a bad thing at all! Cheers brother, I hope that ride is better than expected.

2 months ago I made a cobb with fresh GoldentigerThai and half dry (Honduras x Panama) x New Caledonia.

I ate about 2cm piece one evening, later had some Thai curry for dinner.
And some dancing at a concert, nice psychedelic high.
Then a good nights sleep.

But waking up the next day I was still high
Reality was still "out of focus" somehow. A bit annoying to be honest.
Wasn't expecting that from eating some cob.

A bit like back in the day, partying all weekend on MDMA and then going to school on Monday...

I often wake up still high, that's from 0.2-0.3 of a g.
Usually I'm operable but it's hard to work out when it actually stops sometimes.

Actually, it's a nice attribute, feeling almost normal but without the drive to get stoned, and then at some moments, whoowee, check out the surface of the water, or goodness that music is doing it!
Or spacing out mid conversation, Oh yeah, must still be up there

Made the mango Thai candy bars, 12ish hour sweat. One seems a bit darker than the other. Smells are incredible. I'm cobbing everything again this season lol. Mango Thai and the MTxOTH x ZxC are now aging

Godberry 3 days dry no sweat. Almost 6 months aged. I noticed a tiny bit of mold on this one through the vac bag while inspecting, so I unsealed and scraped off the moldy bits. She's looking good now and has been added to the daily rotation for sampling I chewed 0.2 earlier and rolled up a joint for later to try the smoke. Aroma is a deep blueberry funk with a tangy ferment

Beautiful I could handle carving some shavings off of that and smoking a joint.
I mixed 3 cobs all different strains today chewed and felt like the old beatles song "a day in the life'

"He blew his mind out in a car he never noticed that the lights had changed"
I'm still stuck on amber ha ha, shall I? shan't I? Its the best of all worlds which one do you want?

 

[Tangwena]

Going to be some good chewing and smoking later in the year brother.
I was drooling at the photo thinking of the funky aromas promising so much in a short while.

If any new comers wonder what happens when you've been chewing cob for a while the quote above is golden.

The best effects are the longevity and not knowing if your high again or just really curious about the world ha ha.

Yeah man,they are getting a long age before I sample them. Already smell amazing can't wait for a few months time.

What's up you filthy cobheads!?!? Just popping in to see what's shakin. Everything lookin in y'alls neighborhoods. I'm currently growing a couple autos atm but I have several cobs and several jar cured buds of the same kinds and I gotta say that 8 out of 10 people definitely lean towards the cob being better quality as well as a different buzz which I can attest to myself. Now eating it only myself it's really nice. Better if I keep it in my mouth like snuff/chew. Then I have my cup of coffee (mud) with a couple drops of lecithin/coconut oil mix (science!!) as a carrier for when I swallow the chewed up cob. Couple times my tongue kinda tingled. Anywhoooo upwards and onwards. Great to be here!!!

 

[Hasch]

Yeah, I like to chew and suck on it too. Brings out the spiciness and herbal flavors really well.

And I hope this way gets it more quickly into the blood stream and the liver can do it's thang.

Will try with added lecithin

Cob #3 @ 5 months - Purple Satellite
a short sweat.

Smells good

Moisture seems right

Good play of colors

I vaped a bowl and it was smooth.
A warmer buzz than what I'd had with my coffee this morning ️

I'm waiting for the weather to break and outdoor gardening chores to commence to try and chew some.
Seems like they're on track and just need time. ️

 

[Taima-da]

Looks fantastic! So hard to capture how nice they are with a photo

 

[Tangwena]

Nice colors my friend you will have a nice array of cures by the time they are all done.

Have any of you tried making a cob using all of the leaves as well as the buds? I've got a few tiny plants I grew as a winter seed experiment that are a couple weeks out and I was thinking I'd take out the seeds I want to save and then cob everything but the stems. I know the potency would be lower, but I don't mind chewing on a bigger hunk. It will be at least 2 months until my first real run of autos for the year are ready to be harvested, but I'm excited to get my first cob going.

Give it a go and we'll have an answer, there is no reason it should not work. The entourage effect using the whole plant.

edit: I make lots of tincture and incorporate all parts of the plant. The sharp stems after stripping a bud and the stem is covered in trichs and all the good stuff inside. Why not use it? Leaves are no exception AC.

 

[Taima-da]

Yep, I have made a lot of rustic cobs.
They cure very nicely, but a little differently. You can easily see the leaf matter and separate it after is been cobbed, if you so choose, because the drier leaves don't change as much as the bud.

I imagine it's more like how I picture the "original" cobs...
Care to show a picture?

Does it taste different to the pur flower cob?
How's the high?
