I personally dislike tobacco and the harm it can do, but more importantly, as an American, I support people's right to choose for themselves. Any law that takes freedom away from people is tyranny and I can't abide. I don't recommend smoking, but grow that shit, woman! Lol

    I think this is awesome! I smoked 41 years, since I was 9 and quit 4 1/2 years ago 3 minutes before my 50th birthday. Health was not the driving force behind my quitting, it was loneliness and peoples attitudes towards smokers. It is no longer the social club it once was. not by a long shot. I miss smoking in bars and it should have never been illegalized in situations where only adults can be. I would for sure try your tobacco, keep it up!

    Good ON you! I live in Australia, and we smokers are DEMONISED for our choice of wanting to smoke Tobacco. It costs me $53+ AUD for a 25gram pouch of tobacco. I roll my own cigarettes. It would costs over $55+ AUD to buy a pack of 50 Tailors (already pre made cigarettes) Well actually probably more. Every year, our Cigarette prices go up 1-2 or more dollars AUD. The government taxes over 50 percent and take the money. If they really wanted people to quit, they would offer subsidised quit plans, etc. A 7 day pack of nicotine patches are $40 dollars AUD, these release not even 1 mg of nicotine per hour and take 8 hours minimum to start working. These work for some, but not for everyone. Then they have all the other nicotine replacement options, all are overpriced. You are looking at a minimum of $50AUD for a "starter pack" of 20 nicotine capsules and the white breather (not vape), it's a plastic breathing item you open and put a nicotine capsule/cartridge in. I brought some seeds 2 years ago. I havn't planted or tried to yet,. but I am going to soon once winter is almost over. Alcohol is the biggest drug out there. Causes the most problems, but it's "LEGAL" you can brew it in MOST places legally in this world, but yet Tobacco is the sinners choice they make it out.

    Funny, that I found tobacco sorts to grow are so good, it's impossible to buy comparable for any money. Still, I prefer to grow tomatoes and melons (those are also better, than those in shops).

    Great video. If people choose to smoke, that's their right. As far as the "why don't you quit" comments-these people should take a look in the mirror and they'll probably see someone who could do a lot to improve their own life.

    Used to know a guy who'd bring in an empty big name pack with his home grown-and-rolled cigarettes to the gas station every so often. It was magic to us working there, that stuff tastes and smells infinitely better than the stuff you buy. Could almost chew on the rich taste...

    when i visited Kentucky in 1980 a lot of rural folks grew their own tobacco and weed. it was a dry county and you had to buy beer off of the sheriffs brother. behind the gas station. if you wanted shine you bought it from an old feller. he lived in a small house behind a mansion.

    Guys we are being denied to buy tobacco in South Africa during the covid lockdown. It is illigal to sell tobacco. We can't buy tobacco legally. I have Virgina gold and Black Sea Turkey but I don't have clue about how to gorw it. I made some seadlings. They are just speouting. But I dont know how much to tobacco can yeild (100 plants can yield.) I need enough tobacco to last me a whole season. I am just learning as I go along. What climates does tobacco grow in, should I do it indoors winter or will it be fine outdoors? I need to figure out how to ferment tobacco as well. Any advise will be appreciated. Wish it was ganja. It just grows so much easier.

    I grow my own . Best cigarettes I have smoked were my own homegrown . There’s no “reconstituted” tobacco in my homegrown . Commercial cigarettes are around 50 percent recon tobacco. Basically everything you shouldn’t smoke on a tobacco plant (stems veins and poor quality leaf that is half eaten by bugs) or scraps that fall on the floor is liquified and a bunch of chemicals to help “smooth” the flavor and increase nicotine absorption. They spray the liquid garbage tobacco onto a roller and cut it up and pretend it’s tobacco. That’s most likely where 90 percent of the carcinogens come from. I’ll stick to my own homegrown. Just DO NOT SELL IT ! Cause that will get you a charge from the atf .

ANY ADVICE AS TO WHAT VARIETY I SHOULD GROW NEXT FOR A MEDIUM STRENGTH SMOKE LIKE GOLDEN VIRGINIA WOULD BE GREAT. I'VE JUST GROUND UP A LITTLE THAT WAS READY BUT ITS VERY WEAK. I'M GROWING GOLDEN VIRGINIA BUT I UNDERSTAND I SHOULD BLEND IT WITH OTHERS TO GET A STRONGER TASTE. IS THAT RIGHT?

    Hi variety doesnt affect the taste much its the way its treated/fermented after u grow the plants that affect 95% of the flavor. Sun curing is no option in our climates but we can ferment the leaves into a very dark colored leave by piling them in towels and shifting the leaves once or twice a day for two weeks untill they smell sweet and are almost black in color to mix in with ur other leave for a more complex taste
