also : how would you have broken it down. i will post pics soon but if anyone hase done this i would like to know what kind of @#$#$ hammer they used.

[thanks]

I don't own it, nor have I tried it but if I did I would just break off as I went. I would have no way to store the tea loose after prying apart.

shore you would it comes in a nice box that 99% of it will fit back in after it is broken up.
just finished a session and everything ended up like roses smell taste good stuff
.

[thanks]

In that case I'd probably break it up to age faster. Sounds good, I just wish it was available in a smaller size.

IMHO Melons are not the best way to invest in pu. You wont be drinking it for 40 years. I think it would be best to just break it up and put in all in a nice Zisha or Porcelain jar and forget about it for a few years.

I have the beengs.. they are ok.

hay hop does it taste like roses the melon does

[coloradopu]

hay thanks it be that way now but how would you get it that way have you ever broke one up?
if not what is your best idea?

Roses? No but it does have a hint of young floral notes. No I have never broken up a Melon as I never bought one. Yes, I think many would agree with breaking it up.

I have two of them aging , unfortunatly I am aging at a faster rate and will likely not be alive when they approach peak.

beecrofter how do you plan on breaking them up. when you are a mummy will you just slam them in the lid of the coffin or get someone to drop you on it. LLOOLL !! so what i would like to know is will you try them soon or do you see it as an investment.
i got 3 so i could try it and boy i hope i live a long time cuz if it can only improve then im sitten perty. i like it can you tell
i think some have the idea that most forms age the same but as a function of distance "width height depth" 3D and density i think the quality of age is fare surpassed by size and locked in moisture more than external moisture and temp.
what do you think?

Why buy a melon when you can buy a tong?

I think the ultimate way to collect is the YSLLC method of buy 7, get 1 free. Keep a tong and have bing at the ready to keep you occupied.

A tong is analogous to a case of wine- crack open a bottle, and there's still plenty left that's sealed for future consumption or sale. A melon is like opening a jeraboam of wine. I know that you can store sheng once it's opened, but it looks like crap.

I agree, but, The buy 7 get 1 free is not the way to go. If you want the tong and an extra cake, you will get a better discount if you just email him asking for 8 cakes.
Thats what I have for my 2008 Bulang cakes, 1 tong and a cake to taste.

yes i agree about the tong but there is no other experience like DA MELON

a tong is nice i got a few of them but i also got a few melons and will get a few more. so if i get tired of looking at the crap i just pull a pretty one out and well " think of what you would do with a new cake" and then return it to its resting place.
the melon gives more depth to the tea and stability, which cannot be gained by something thin in a full stack or short stack.
you know its like a full size red velvet cake compared to a stack of pancakes.
besides how many i-hops are they’re for velvet cake out there.
also the degree of consumption for both is different as is what you get out of it.

True, but I was referring more to the notion of getting a sealed tong plus a cake to dick around with rather than getting a good price. You're right in regards to the "secret handshake" with Scott for a better deal.
