Yep, I know they still have the dogs that hit on it. That was my wondering about the chemical change that happens in cob....is it different enough that those places that still have K9s that hit cannabis won't detect it.
Yes I did a quick grow under a small LED it was way too stinky for my grow room. But I have seeds to try it again sometime in the future.
. Really looking forward to sampling this.
, hope everyone has a good one.Mmmmm, that looks so good! Bet the smell is outa this world... that there will knock your socks off pretty soon!Hey all just an update on my Honey Peach cobbing venture.
It's gone from this:
to this:
24hrs @ about 40c and I must say I'm very happy so far.
I'm no good, too useless with descriptions of smell, but there's been a marked change over the 24hrs. It's now very fruity, with the help of Mrs Delores we've narrowed it down to sweet watermelon, and I must say I think she nailed it. Alas I never asked her to smell pre-cobbing, I will in future
There was no sign of water vapour inside the vacume packing. I think this is due to the parchment paper soaking it up, it was very damp on removal.
I've let it air for a short time, when I'm done here I'll wrap her in fresh paper, and let her sit on the driver for my lights for a week.
I'll update then
Oh yeah and a very happy thanks giving to all my colonial cousins over there
Sweet, I will be giving that a go next harvest! Will be a couple months unfortunately.
When I cob I don't bother trimmimg, other than to remove the fans. I strip the branches and cob it all up together. The way I look at it a plant grows different oil concentrations depending on the location on the plant, intended for different effects. At the bottom the plant is trying to deter grazers. At the top there's an increased need to protect against the sun's rays.
If there's a mix of all that going into my cobs I feel like I'm getting a balance of what the plant had to offer from top to bottom. Plus, I'm lazy, and don't trim unless it's absolutely necessary. Lol!
@Piña Delores, that's an impressive and beautiful entry into the mysteries of cobbing.
Nice Sue... yea I don't really trim very close. Pull the fans and trim to even the buds out a bit, thats all. What about the fans? if they are washed beforehand, mixed in with the trim... sure it wouldn't be very strong, but could be interesting to try that as well. No harm...
Oh and someone had mentioned fermenting roots, I would be interested in that as well. I am actually getting into all kinds of fermentation... this weekend I am going to start a few jars of fermented broccoli, cabbage, carrots, etc... great stuff!
Another astonished participant. Lol! It sounds like you already know how to proceed Nick, and congratulations on your first tastes.
I’ll be flying to California in a couple weeks for a quick visit and I’ll be squirreling away a couple cob bits to keep me buzzed for the duration. They don’t look or smell like cannabis, so I should be able to drop them into a personal items bag or my lunch box and have it completely overlooked. This traveling “freedom” is a benefit of the process I never took into consideration.
Way to go UrbWell long story but I finally got around to making some form of cobs this morning...off what I could remember in this thread.
Took some fresh harvest, after a 12 hour hang, this is some HSO Genetics I was fortunate enough to test, grown in soil.
Cut off some lower sites as well as top nugs to make a small cob. One of each strain. I didn’t have decent corn husks and didn’t want to just have the vacuum seal plastic as it’s only wrap. I used parchment paper in place of husks.
I kept rolling it and unrolling it, getting it tighter and tighter, then just tied it up with the cotton line after I thought it was good.
Placed the makeshift cobs into the vacuum sealer. Double sealed the edges as I was going to put them into my crock pot on “keep warm” but that got too hot according to a thermometer.
So my best idea was to use my hot water tank. In particular the hot water line that supplies the house. I wrapped the copper tube with a bandana to protect the plastic. Wrapped the cobs around the bandana. Then tied them with cotton line before wrapping the cobs in a tea towel to hold in the warmth.
I have checked a few times. At one point the bandanna was up to 115F, stuck around 110 for the longest time, and was at 100 last I checked. It should get a few cycles of heat in the next 24 hours that might do the trick. We shall see.
I wonder what would happen if you used the fans as the cob?If you have fans available why not try a bit of fermented cannabis? Then you can report back your findings and impressions. Every inch of the plant above the soil line is covered with trichomes, most just one cell high and all of them holding oil. Have some fun with it.
Aces Malawi is to me very narcotic. I used to live in Africa as a young man I lived in Zambia up near the Congo border in a town called Ndola, Malawi in a town called Limbe and in Zimbabwe in Harare.Hey Tangwena. I once read you comment that the Ace Malawi is very different from the Malawi you know. How so? And could you point me in the direction of where I might be able to find something you’d consider a more typical/true Malawi strain? Sorry if the question has already been covered, I haven’t been around much.
Your getting better and better every time Sue. That looks awesome you are nailing it.BrixNewb’s cob came out of fermentation today.
I agree its all in the individuals personal taste some of my friends dont like things that I consider good.
