As to growing tobacco; they use "hothouses" and such to grow marijuhanna up here year round, don't they? I would suppose that if you had a good sized barn or greenhouse, that you could probably culture a sufficient tax-free crop to feed your personal addiction for a while. And you could probably get all the info you neen on drying, curing, and processing it on the internet.

Yes, you could grow your own tobacco, and dry and cure it, but what is really going to be tough, is putting in the 100 chemical carciogenics that they say that are in purchased tobacco.

Oh, not to worry; just find that old can of DDT out in the barn that granpa used to exterminate the bats with and dip all your smokes in that.

Not only will that probably meet your MDR of carcinogens, it might make the bloomin' things taste a little better as well!

Some of my fellow Civil War Reenactors who smoke will load up a clay pipe with cigarette tobacco when in carachter, since very few people smoked cigarettes back in the 1860's.
It was considered somewhat "effeminate" for a male to do so, apparently, and any sort of smoking was not at all "ladylike" or socially condoned for the gals.

Down South that social restriction was eased up a bit and they even made small pipes just for the Belles.
