Malawi Style Cob Curing.

[SweetSue]

I think they’re ready to go into the cure. I’ll dry them out and get them resealed. I’m testing a 0.5 gram piece, chewed for 15 minutes and then made into tea. Haven’t had the tea yet, but I’ll be drinking it and ingesting the dregs.

I realize it won’t be as potent as after the cure, but I had to try. I’ll stop later and share my thoughts in effect.

Looking forward to your review, SweetSue! Thanks for the pix and updates!

My pleasure Samuel.

My initial impressions are that this is much more powerful than the euphoria I got with cured flower from my last Malawi harvest. When I get really high it feels bouncy when I walk, but with the chewed cob I feel bouncy standing still. Lol! When I move it feels like the air is moving out of the way to let me through. Haha! Never felt that before.

When it kicked in it felt like a rumble, rising from the depths. I'm enjoying the early indicators. The tea will be kicking in soon, and I just had a light meal with some fat content, which should kick the cannabinoids up up a notch too.

All in all I'm mighty pleased with the progress. I'm not expecting the effects I'll get with curing, but so far the effects are superior to conventionally dried and cured bud. After they surface dry I won't be opening them for another month for the next test.

Good looking stash.
for the alternate wrap....
I kept reading banana peels not banana leaves, now it makes more sense. peels did not make sense, sorry i was spacing out.

 

[SweetSue]

Ok..... I’m understanding what Tangwena meant by the energetic effects. This feels like speeding, something I never got with Malawi. Quite frankly I only have one chemovar that offers a speed-type buzz, the Dark Devil Auto, and you can be certain I’ll be planting more soon.

I just upcanned and flipped two plants in what may be record time. Lol!

Looking good Sue a little drying and they will be ready to age.
If I was you I would check them weekly and dry a little each time.
Oh and take a taster each time that way you will get to appreciate how the effects change with aging.
It is really to soon right now to try them but I understand you need to experiment ha ha.
The effects of young unmatured cobs are very stony and not to my taste but they may be to yours.
Once they reach 3 months of aging you will truly see what getting high from grass is all about.
Yesterday I took a half gram of the Panama x Honduras cob. Boy its strong really strong like the Zamaldelica but with a more colder type of high.
Not as laughing or funny more an incredulous feeling of this is good almost too good to handle. In higher doses I would not be able to function at all just open mouthed staring in awe.
I liked the getting lost in my own house feeling like everything was new and I hadn't seen it before just the type of high for getting lost in space and incredibly energetic I dont think I sat down or wanted to all day.
Another 5 out of 5 star cob just incredibly strong I am very pleased I have a lot of this from the one plant.
The nice fat cola I cured separately canary style along with the cola from the Panama the highs from both colas are intense and deep very tripped out for the whole day long chewed.

I spent the day speeding on Malawi. Haha! I love being able to say that. Hehe! It was wonderful Tangwena. You’re in Australia, aren’t you? I have some good friends there, and it’s one of my desires to meet them on their own soil. When that happens I’d be honored to meet you and your wife.

I’m glad to hear you suggest weekly checks. The guys had already requested that I do so. Haha! Let them dry to the touch every time. Got it. I can’t wait until the next test.

Time to start a flow sheet for cobs so I can track the progress. WooHoo! I love documenting.

I am West Coast if your coming over give me a pm and we will show you a good time ha ha.
Australia is a wonderful country it has everything if you can go to Far North Queensland, rain forests, beaches and the most laid back lifestyle you can imagine.
Just hack off an inch at each inspection that way if after a weeks drying the previous weeks taste takes on epic style highs you have a nice chunk to play with.
Its really early days yet once they age and dry the real magic comes out.
I had another trip on the Panama x Honduras today really speedy and trippy in higher doses good for getting stuff done I did twice as much work as normal and still want more he he.
Its good to feel empowered like a super man today I could have been any body or anything I put my mind too.
Today I was a painter and scaffolder now I am just cruising but with heaps of crazy reserve energy. This high is a 10 to 12 hr high for me at these doses. I didn't measure the dose they are always the better trips because your mind knows what it wants.

 

[SweetSue]

Here I am, 4 in the morning and still awake. Yeah, the energetic side surprised me. Lol! I was expecting to be asleep about three hours ago.

The canary cobs will be what I’ll test. I’m saving the cobs for the three month cure. The canaries were a half ounce each though, so I have more than enough to play with.

I may need to take a day to recover before trying again. Lol! I’m gonna try to sleep now.

 

[Tangwena]

Ha Ha not much chance if you do it will become a dream like you've never had I am sure.
You need to play around with doses to get a manageable dose I usually work in the 0.1g to 0.35g range.
The Golden Tiger is like being on ecstacy for 8 to 10 hours at 0.5g dose its like having a 5 hour orgasm as you go up for the first 5 hhours. I always find it way to pleasant for my own good ha ha. I cant go out in public till it evens out I just have a big cheshire cat grin and love everyone I cant help it.
I have to go to confession for all my impure thoughts ha ha.
The Zamaldelica is like your 16 on your first LSD trip all brash and full of yourself.
You will find a whole new world to explore as far as strain selection goes now.

 

[repuk]

hahah I bet your eyes won't appear as wide open as cheshire's!

Do eyes get affected when chewing? Dry, red or slanted?

Congrats SweetSue! Impressive!

 

[ThaiBliss]

When I get really high it feels bouncy when I walk, but with the chewed cob I feel bouncy standing still. Lol!

Just woke up and had my first laugh.
Thanks for the report!

 

[SweetSue]

Well I did manage to sleep, but not as soundly as usual. I’ll tone down the dose. I chewed a piece that was 0.5 g. Today I’ll cut it back to 0.3 and see what happens.

Yeah....I know it’s still too early, but damn, I want to see if that’ll happen again. Lol!

 

[Neiko]

These descriptions of the different highs is exciting. I harvested my 1st plant that will get cobbed yesterday. All these positive reports makes me wonder why anyone would not cob. I'm looking forward to that 1st experience and then being able to watch all the old stoners try it. Thank you guys for the heads up on this method!

Thank you repuk.

I do sativas, so my eyes are always wide open. Lol! I never thought to check the eyes. I live in a euphoric bubble, and the community expects my eyes to be red the same way they know I’ll always smell like I have access to better cannabis than they can score on the streets.

Being retired is the best. I was an entrepreneur for the most part, so I had control of my own destiny anyway, but the occasional job that came with a “pee in the cup” mentality was an irritant. Obviously I function better with cannabinoids running through the system in a higher rate than most, but check my output and then step quietly out of my way before you suggest I may indulge a wee bit too much.

You guys helped me get over that last rung. This is what I’ve been searching for, I’m certain of it. Time to get the day going. Catch you later.

 

[SweetSue]

My eyes appear to be no more red than normal. It may have that effect earlier on, when THC first hits the brain and dilates the ocular blood vessels. I'll try to take note earlier. Now I'm curious.

I'm also deliciously buzzed on a mere 0.3 grams.

Reports like this make my day nicely done Sue.
After aging you will probably be nicely buzzed on 0.1g believe me.
I only go to 0.5g if I want astral travel ha ha.

Oh and as you now no doubt see. Timing is very important thats why I chew at around 9 am if I want to come down enough to sleep at 9pm.

High and good evening all.
I'm out of breath after reading thru this incredible journal.

I came here because SweetSue said I should.
It took a few days to get thru the 1st 50 pages,but I'm so glad I did.

Heartfelt thanks to Tangwena for his boundless enthusiasm and old world knowledge.

Stage..... How pleased am I that you sought out this thread. You sir, started my day with a big smile. Having read, you now understand my excitement. Some day in the not-too-distant future we'll share a cob or two and smile together.

Fo Sure Sue.
Thats right!
