Yeah yeah yeah I know this thread is old

geez, you must be planning on growing some god-awful bud, if that's how you're finishing the job.
Stop over-thinking/complicating/arching and enjoy the plant.

Maybe he is enjoying the plant he grew
It’s easy to follow the cow in front of you and do what everyone else does.



Cob curing will ruin your bud and turn it into unpleasant, unsmokable garbage. No one does it anymore because it is literally one of the worst possible ways to to dry and cure. It was done that way in the past out of sheer ignorance, there is absolutely no logical reason to dry and cure like that.

Not sure where you read up on terpenes but temps that high will totally destroy much of your terpene profile along with any pleasant smell and flavor plus as degrade all you cannabanoids.

Same goes with freezing temperatures, dry ice, etc, etc. No need to reinvent the wheel, all good growers cure and dry in a similar manner because that is what actually works.

Is it Sheer ignorance or too much dope referring to the above post.?

Like anything done correctly, a Cob cure will not ruin your bud
Yes
Lots of people do a cob cure
It was not done out of sheer ignorance.
Like the above post was.
It’s a African way of cureing that’s has been done longer than ANY burp and cure tech.

Just cuz you don’t do It does not mean it’s not done.
Yes
There is a need to reinvent the wheel
Otherwise all you dopeheads would not be doing dabs.
All the things said are just different ways of manufacturing this plant.
It’s amazing that dopeheads think that all good growers needs to be in lock step with how to process this plant.
That’s the thinking of sheeple
Just cuz one can’t find a million pages on google does not mean it does not work
There are many alternative methods on cureing techs.
One should choose the one That works best for them, not the most popular on google.
The only issue is the temps
Bring it down to 104 and your golden.
Testing has been done with the vacuum sealer cob tech and no
( let me repeat) NO PATHOGENS were found when the proper tech is used.




Listen to blaze...
No
Do not listen to Blaze.
Read his words
Put the words away in your brain for future reference
And keep on experimenting to find what is right for you!!!
It shows real strength to break away from the way others do things and find your own path.
The only reason dopeheads all do the same cure like each other is they are too stoned and scared ( and lazy/spaced/couch locked) to try something new.
Or in this case
Something old.

Cold curing is a myth. Curing entails chemical conversions that require conditions a freezer does not provide. Even cold processed hash has to be aged after the fact. Is it easier to age in hash form than on the bud? Well if you grow emaciated chemical dustweed, absolutely. But if your bud is actually caked up in resins all proper and rather than simply looking frosty, not really.

High brix oganic bud is easy to cure. I've done it at 85 degree, still brought out the monoterps in flavor and smell. And sesquiturps, anyone familiar with traditional hash production understands that high temperatures aren't that scary. Unless youre growing that chemmy garbage, where all chemical process halt at chop, high temps aren't so bad for most situations/strains.

Too much subjectivity to give advice on Cannabis harvesting. Just gotta have a knack for it in most cases. Subjective right down to the point that one bud tender will show you unflushed chemmy buds and call it "gas", while the same crop at another store down the road is called "sweet" smelling. (Smells like Chinese plastic or manmade drugs to me.)

So subjective that many people perceive terpenes and flavinoids as 'harsh' and prefer water washed bud, while others rely on those terps to cleanse their membranes and receptors.

I just get a kick out of all the people struggling to cure there bud while the dankest stuff around is sitting in plastic bags in a cedar cabinet until the smell gets overwhelming. Then it's finished and ready for jars. That simple. Grow dank, not dro. Easy. The "step 0" of proper curing
