According to my journal, I started this project on 1/6/22. I had just chopped the rest of my grow of land-race Colombian Gold and hung it up. Later that A few days earlier, I ran across a "cobbing" thread on another weed forum. It sounded crazy, but I'm always down for crazy, so I read the instructions about 8 times (sorry, I was high) and grabbed about 5 oz of freshly trimmed bud and the corn shucks, 1mm hemp thread, some vac-n-seal bags and the machine and started wrapping. The 5 oz rolled up into three "turds". 
I put them in the dehydrator for a day, then did the fermentation process for a week. I tried it out and here is the Smoke Report:
Smoke Report: Some little bits fell off of one as I was removing the corn shucks so I put that in a little stash jar for testing. As has been said, the smoke is crazy smooth, almost like smoking air. The taste is pretty bland, with a slight burnt cardboard finish. The high comes on quickly, just like smoking flower. It lasts about 90 minutes or so. Contrary to previous reports, in my personal experience it wasn't completely free of brain fog or memory issues. The high was very much of a feeling of well-being, just a really nice "stoned" (insert Eagles "Peaceful Easy Feeling" song here) feel, and the sense that everything is right in the universe, which is a great diversion from the covid insanity. Another thing I noticed is how long the stuff burns; I pinched off a tiny bit and got 6 big tokes off it and I'm not sure it was done even then. It burned to a dove gray ash and didn't gum up the one-hitter like my regular bud, although I don't use the one-hitter for regular bud. On the exhale, the "smoke" disappears in less than an arm's length and I even did a hit in the bathroom and you couldn't even tell it. It also doesn't stink up your breath like regular bud. I told my wife that it's so smooth that even she could smoke it (she's never smoked weed or anything else because she has asthma). I sealed the "turds" back up and am starting the curing process. I'm looking at these things wondering if I can smoke one of them in three months. I'm very, very impressed with this process.
Today: It still smells about the same, sort of like pickles but not quite. Shaved off some little pieces (rather than a chunk) and took a couple of tokes. Definitely different than it was two months ago, for sure. Doesn't taste bad, but it's not like smoking flower. It seems to hit about like it did at first, and two months ago. The high seems to be about the same too, so I'm not sure what the long curing is supposed to do. It didn't taste remotely bad the first time I smoked it and, you might not like this but I think I got higher at first, after it had fermented but hadn't started the cure. I'm at least able to write and post this without a lot of mistakes and focus. I've noticed that the last bit of cob that I shredded and just finished up tasted a lot more harsh, gummed up my pipe, and was a lot thicker than the smoke at first. I'm not sold on the curing process.
This stuff would be great stealth stash. You could say that it's "some sort of herb" (insert your favorite). I don't think the cops would even suspect this is weed. Doesn't really smell like weed either when you smoke it.
