Tangwena's Malawi-Style Cob Cure: Fermented Cannabis

@SweetSue you would want to do it with fresh leaves. You need the moisture in the leaves to make a brine. I think when I start this I will do it in my journal so as not to contaminate this one with other untested stuff. I am so looking forward to trying it. For that matter if someone was doing a large defol of plants there is the material to do a test run.
 
I've been told Tangwena lives/used to live in malawi. I'm currently on the hunt for TRUE African landrace sativas. 16-20 weeks flowering type of sativas.

Tangwena if you are in posession or can get a hold of african landrace genetics i'd love to have a private chat with you :D or anyone else for that matter. Seems like a good thread to ask about such things :thumb:

I’ll watch what you do and when I do my next defol I’ll consider giving it a go. This sounds interesting.
 
Hey Guys and gals. I have a quick question for anyone that might know the answer to this.

When you go from the 7 day fermentation stage to the cure, am I supposed to keep it wrapped in the corn husk for the entire cure or even any of the cure? Any input is greatly welcome! Thanks!

I unwrap them after the fermentation stage and throw the husk away. I believe Hook kept his wrapped the whole time. I think it's a personal preference thing. Eventually we'll be more familiar with all the tweaks, but in this case I didn't want to be unwrapping and wrapping the husk every week during the initial month of curing. I'm pretty lazy, to be honest. That's why I grow in hempy pots. Lol!
 
Thanks.....figured keeping them unwrapped from the husk would be much easier to take samples at different times as well.

How long have you been letting yours go before you start sampling? I have some coming up on 2 weeks in cure.
 
Just started 2 ounces of Blue Dream in a cob tonight. Thats 6 different plants and 5 strains cobbed. Gonna be fun when they are all ready!
 
@Van Stank you can start taking samples now so you know what its like each week. The first is more of a tester to get the ball park of the time you like. Then the next ones you can start sampling around that time to know when to pull it to dry to your liking.
 
Are you eating or smoking it?
 
I sampled every week following the fermentation. Lol! How else would I know when they started to have a more profound effect?

I quickly got more casual. As your growing number of cobs demonstrates it’s easy to build a sizabe number. Lol! I have so many options that I only chew every few days. I enjoy both methods of consumption. They offer different euphoric experiences.

I can’t do cobs every day. They speed my metabolism up something fierce and I need a break. A day or two and I’m desiring that loving edge they bring to every waking moment and give them another go.

I like to chew and then immediately smoke some. It’s a double-barreled cob buzz. :battingeyelashes:
 
Here is the Blue Dream Cob going into sweat.......and following that is the Jack Herer Auto cob coming out of fermentation and going into Cure. Can't wait to sample!

Nice looking cobs man the Jack should be interesting this way. As Sue said once the sweat and cure is over you can unwrap them the unwrapped canary style buds are just as good as the wrapped cobs, just taste a little different its just up to your own taste.
The Panama x Honduras canary buds I cured unwrapped were outstanding and made me want to cure more that way.

Honestly I've already ditched the husks. Wrapping and unwrapping them when you have a bunch to do gets old quick and as you said, the canary cobs are just as good. My last batch of cobs I did had no husks and I'm happy with them.

Try making bricks they look great and cure just the same I've seen some crazy good oblong blocks and square bricks on other forums.
One guy redeye24/7 is killing it curing them like that.

It's funny you say that. I made a ball last time because they were a tad dry and I was having a hard time getting the log to stay together so I just balled it up like making a hamburger patty and went with it.
 
@Van Stank I take a little tiny piece, not enough for effects but enough for taste. A little hit in the bowl will also give you another thing to compare. As @neikodog said I think, we need to keep real good notes on this process to be able to reproduce a resemblance of what we have. I have to do way...... better at this.

If your talking on the kraut I will be eating that.
 
I could get into losing the husks. That’s a lot of fiddling around, and if it’s mostly for looks.... I’ve been considering that Canna jerky sheet. :battingeyelashes:

You gentlemen reminded me I was planning a day with my second Carnival cob. :slide:
 
Whoa! Just noticed the post count for this 3-month old thread! :eek:

Looks like we’re on to something special. :slide:
