Ohhh I’m with you brother, my whole point was that it is like no other, most Hawaiians and early x’s used Thai as one of their foundation strains, because they are special. I would think string color denoted cob/fermentation dates of multiple harvest, long cure theory. I think the only place you would find any refined oil is in the wrapped sticks as a glue for the natural leaf wrap.
You would not need to go around burying jars. Not familiar with the tropics but at frost point here 48” deep @42 N the temperature will be a stable 54 degrees or so. A 5-6’ (deeper there I am sure) deep root cellar would take care of the Slow moist cure with no mold. Strings might delineate crops in a perpetual grow and storage with several harvests a season?
