I do apologize for my rant yesterday. I have been laying wood flooring for 3 days and many more to come and the glue is starting to freak me out big time ha ha.
I have a respirator ect but still get headaches from it at the end of the day. Whenever I take headache pills I get crazy.
Add to that no cob for 3 days and its not a good mix ha ha.
I tried it high but production was lower as I kept finding better things to do ha ha.

Ranting in a cannabis forum? Never heard that one before. I certainly haven't ever done it myself
Here are my 2 little Zamal x Jamaica cobs by the way, just opened them after 1 week at 30°C. They smell heavenly but there hasn't been a dramatic change in smell since I opened them after the 24h sweat.
I tried to take some macros but they didn't come out that great. In person you can see a lot of sugary crystals moving them under the light.
What do you guys think? Are they ready for long-term storage at room temperature? Or should I keep them in the warm Tupperware a little longer?
That looks like its on its way brother give it a month or two sealed up and by Christmas it will be da bomb!
Totally awesome and ready for the long cure they are going to be sticky chiko rolls by Christmas.Ranting in a cannabis forum? Never heard that one before. I certainly haven't ever done it myself

Cool thread @Tangwena. My first attempt at cob curing using 36 grams of Panama x (Bubbahash x pck) with about 70% moisture after four days of drying. This plant is Panama dominant with lemon, vanilla and incense aromas and a little bit of sweet fruity terps from the Pakistani.
I wrapped the cob tightly in parchment paper and then an oven bag, and let it sweat for 24 hours on a heat mat. It felt slightly moist when opened up today but no visible condensation in the bag. The smell was incredible though… very pungent with a more pronounced sweetness to it. It’s now vacuum sealed and curing.

i did'nt use any twine, just wrapped very tightly with the parchment paper and then with an oven bag. The cobs are very dense as they are and if necessary i'll pack them a little tighter when i seal them back up in a week.
Looks excellent island
That looks divine my friend loud terps and colorful cobs are a good indication of future excellence thats the kind of colors I like to see at this stage.
By Christmas they should be incredible.
Some of the best cures are not highly compressed there is more than one way to skin a cat so they say.
But I find it easier if you have killed them first they are too agile while still kicking ha ha.

Thanks, and good to hear. I'm looking forward to sampling some.

I would imagine it has to do with minimising the amount of oxygen in contact with the buds. Which is also probably why vacuum sealing helps the process. To prevent oxidation or modify its effect in a desirable way. Just my guess.
