I've got a pack of Zamaldelica fems in my fridge so I guess you know which one I'd choose.

The Search for Trip Weed
- Thread starter ThaiBliss
- Start date
I would go with Malawi. Malawix panama or golden tiger when i grow zamaldelica i will cross with Malawi or the more recent golden tiger
I have before, but not often. I like it, but it is extra work.
Greetings,
Miss Universe is gathering up for flowering. Here are some tops:
Closer:
You can even see a little resin and hairs becoming more prevalent:
There is hope that this will be fully ripe before November.
Here is Bangi Haze x Wicked Weed for comparison. It gets ripe by mid October:
Trip Weed, here we come.

Hi ThaiBliss and all other trippy weed aficionados.
Please excuse me if I'm 5 years late to the party and please disregard my post if this has been touched upon before.
I know that many of you follow the Malawi Cobbing thread by Tangwena https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=309172
, and while I'm mesmerised by the good stuff to be found in this thread here and Tangwena's traditional cobbing thread, I haven't been able to read them fully, as I have a life outside of IC hahaha.
Now here goes:
Has it ever ocurred to anyone that the trippy effects might be more in the cure than in the plant, or at least in a combination of both ? People in Tangwena's thread rave about the psychedelic effects of weed cured in a cob, how it has a smooth comedown, no "hangover" and then I read other people's post about how trippy the weed in the 70s used to be, saying the same things about the old smoke and that it's nowhere to be found today.
I was thinking last night ( oh yes I was stoned)... the weed in the US in the 70s came in bricks a lot of the times and was most likely mexican, colombian... but mostly sativas!...I imagine what happens inside such a tightly compressed brick, improperly dried weed sweating at high temperatures under the exclusion of oxygen (in a compressed brick that would be anywhere inside the brick), that's exactly what the cobbing does or am I wrong ?
So while you guys are looking for the trippiest weed, just imagine what your weed would do if cobbed or similar to achieve the cure from the old days ? Maybe the compressed bricks, so frowned upon by many today and labelled schwag for lack of better knowledge was just exactly the right thing to bring out these desired effects ?And today nobody has it as everyone cures their meticulously manicured high gloss poster buds in jars at 17C and exactly 62% rh ?
As I said I was really stoned last night on some Sour Blueberry and just wanted to get this out, if this was already discussed (very likely) please ignore my post, this is the fate of the stoner
I gots myself a vacuum sealer and got some corn husks last night... soon some of the Sour Blueberry as well as the Jack Herer I just harvested will be cobbed
All the best

G`day CC
Tangwena eats the cobs .
So , its a process for curing the herb for eating .
I tried smoking some cobbed herb .It didn`t seem any different to the same bud well cured to me .
I`ll try chewing it in a cpl of days and report back .
Thanks for sharin
EB .
Chevy Chaze - I have cobbed some bud before and I was impressed with the flavor improvement while smoking it. That being said, I believe that genetics are 90% of what is needed to find trip weed as long as it is reasonably well grown and cured. However, poorly grown/cured excellent genetics can result in terrible weed.
I suspect some kinds of weed are very good for eating, and some aren't. I grew SAGE x Purple Haze Thai, and it turned out very nice. It was not as trippy and clean as my SAGE cut, so I have not pursued other samples yet. I would say that it was more potent than SAGE. The interesting thing is that a patient who eats weed and does not smoke reported that SAGE x Purple Haze Thai is strongly psychedelic and very potent. He made brownies with it and described being devastated by a bite as big as index finger down to the bottom of his nail.
All - I'd like to report on my potential seed crop. After planting clones in soil outside that were dying off in droves in my cabinet, all but one survived and are thriving. All are starting to flower, some farther along than others. Here is the flowering start order:
Goo
Wicked Weed (my male turned out to be female)
Bangi x Wicked Weed (male)
Headband
Sour Diesel
SAGE
Big Sur Holy Weed
Kali Mist
Tahoe OG
Thai x (Colombian Gold x C99)
Purple Haze x Thai
In my bud garden, here is the flowering order:
Bangi Haze x Wicked Weed, Fruity Pebbles x Wicked Weed both started at about the same time. Then...
Wicked Weed
Miss Universe
Nanan Bouclou
All are looking very good in the garden. I believe I'm going to have some nice bud this year. I'm due to post some pictures and show off some, possibly this weekend.

its the same as well cured herb ,
but a faster process from what i can tell ,
the cobs i made , the golden ones ,
were from buds that even cured , they wouldnt really have reached that stage ,
it was the worst of the laos i grew ,
but it was my favorite after the cobs cured enough to toke ...
from my conversations with tang ,
we gather the herb in 60s and 70s when reports of tripping weed were common , it was not green , fresh ,
it was usually cured ,
nowadays folks cant wait to get the stuff dry to toke it ,
maybe some indica dom stuff is ok like that ,, i dunno ,
but the stuff i like should be toked when you are harvesting the next years crop .. imo ....
if its been grown to its potential,
and cured properly over a year ,
it should be as good as it can be ...
from what i can tell by cobbing , i can do that year in 4 months ..
Hey Elmer,
You're right, Tangwena proposes to chew and eat the cobbed weed, but I think others in his thread also smoke them and reported how smooth and flavorful the smoke was.
That's good enough for me to try hahaha
Hi TB,
You're right, genetic makeup and phenotypic expression are the keys, and combined with the right cure the effects will be far out.
My god what a mouth watering list of plants you have there...
Great stuff, always a pleasure to read any news on here.
BEst,

Greetings,
Here are some garden pictures. My garden has too many plants again. They are all growing together in a big mass:
Check out the bamboo looking plant, Miss Universe, the third from the front left:
The very front row has a nice solid wall of bud:
Next year, I'm growing 6 less plants and spacing them out more to get more buds all around the plant. More like this:

Here are pictures of Bangi Haze (Congolese pheno) x Wicked Weed:
I just love the high from a good Bangi Haze. It is clean, energetic, and happy. It is so starkly clear that it makes it feel trippy. It also heightens the senses. I'm hoping that clear trait comes through in this cross with Wicked Weed.

Wow. Incredible. Thanks for posting!
Greetings,
My photography skills are poor, but the haze does not help. I'm not saying I'm high as a kite from smoking Haze, and screwing up my photos. The haze is smoke from nearby fires. There are easily 200,000 acres burned or on fire within 100 miles from my house. We all have been suffering atrocious air quality. I've never been so conflicted in wishing for rain. LOL.
Here is my Nanan Bouclou bush:
Some pictures of buds starting to form:
More again later...

BEAUTIFUL! Those plants look so happy! They make me look happy!
Hi West-EU,look like you got carried away with all those plants mate
it's the jungle at your place..... always want more
like your miss universe ... did they all show nld like this one ?
Since you asked, here are pictures of Miss Universe. But first to answer your question. I believe I had 3 Miss Universe sprout out of 4. Two were NLD looking. It rained a lot in early spring, almost every day. This caused slugs and mold to be big problems with many plants. One of the NLD types got munched on by slugs then succumbed to mold. One of Miss Universe was WLD looking, and not just a little bit. It got munched and molded but survived. It grew really slowly, and had extremely short internodes with small fat leaves. At first I thought it was a result of the beating it took, but it picked up a little steam and got a couple of feet tall. I believe it's growth habit was genetic. I gave it to a friend to use it for seed stock. I just heard yesterday that it went hermaphrodite. He said it got even bushier as it got bigger, which is very hard to believe.
So far, the Miss Universe I kept is gender stable, and the most S.E. Asian looking plant I've grown since Gypsy Nirvana Thai x (Mullumbimby x Neville's Haze). Miss Universe looks far earlier and faster flowering. It is progressing nicely:
I hope it ripens before Nov. 1 or earlier. I have found some nice plants with high quality highs, but I desire something with some real kick to it.
More Later,
ThaiBliss
