Hello Friends..

Hello friends,

I am bit new to the world of tobacco.. Need some guidance as dont want to hurt by body by excessive usage of tobacco.

First of all, welcome to FTT . You are in the company of some of the most educated tobacco enthusiasts. Although I agree that anything excessively overdone can be harmful. However, the tobacco that will most likely "hurt your body" comes from the heavily processed and additive (read as "poisons") laden commercial variety . Once you read all you can in this forum you'll soon find out the tobacco we grow ourselves is for the most part organic and although not exactly healthy , not as harmful as those $8 poison packs at the gas station. Along the way , you'll be making some good friends here as well.
So, whats the guidance you seek? Cigars, cigarettes, chew, snus, suff, dip, chew...?

Go to www.wholeleaftobacco.com and start with his blend kits to get started until you figure out what varieties you prefer for your own blend. You will need either an electric or manual shredder to shred the leaves and a cigarette injector to put the tobacco into the tubes. Great fun. Once you figure out which varieties you prefer you can start rounding up some seed and grow your own.

Depending on how much you smoke, your savings the first couple of months will pay for your equipment then it's cheap smoking from then on. Cheaper but much higher quality. Getting off the store bought chemical sticks has really made me feel better. My smokers cough is gone and my cravings have reduced drastically. I don't wake up dying for a cigarette anymore and I'm down to just wanting 4-5 cigarettes a day instead of a pack.
