Malawi Style Cob Curing.

Opened up my cobs to dry overnight.

Nothing smells bad. Everything looks good. Even those I thought were dryer fooled me. They all had a fair amount of moisture still.

Opened up my cob after 24 hours, it wasn't wet but more gooey/sticky and has an absolutely amazing and rich sweet smell. Gave it a quick pat down with some tissue and have it resealed now for two weeks at room temp. The cobbed buds smell a lot stronger than buds from the same plant I am drying/curing the normal way at this stage.

Trying a low tech version while still following Tangs flow chart. Used a banana leaf to wrap for initial sweat and ferment. Unwrapped and dried a bit, then re-wrapped in parchment. Now, under a few weights for the final rest. Smells interesting, like silage/haylage but a little sweeter and spicy if that makes sense, herbal for sure.

Could have used corn husks since I’m surrounded by cornfields and Mexican stores but since the banana was on my patio, the lazy way out won.
