My wife saves about half rolling her own but they doubled the tax on

that in the last 5 years so instead of $2.50 a pack, it's now almost 5.

She smokes a lot less now that she uses the ecig, but still it's a lot.

We are ordering a kit with 250 seeds, seems if we set a place in the

yard aside we could probably grow enough on ten plants to keep her going

all year... Haven't had a garden in a long time since the deer and

raccoons killed our last one a day before harvest. Seems they might not

be so interested in eating Tobacco so we'll see. Maybe I will have a

report in the fall...

I don't know about Americas Laws on it... but you sure as hell CANT grow it up here without a License.

As I gather so far, you can grow a bit for personal use, and even apply
for a permit to grow some to sell yourself.. It would of course have to
be taxed etc I would imagine. We just want to grow some for ourselves...

I have been away from that for 3 decades but I think they dropped all
of that quota stuff that used to be a virtual license for selling it.
I think you could always grow all you wanted but you were locked out
of the auction for anything that wasn't in your quota.
That was some family's most valuable asset, passed down from
generation to generation and you saw little patches of tobacco behind
every old farm house all over southern Md..

Harry is around there now, maybe he knows what happened to the old
quota system.

Wonder if the red barn was a tobacco barn?
