How do you make tobacco flavorings?
They can get a little pricey when growing tobacco for your cigarettes. Does anyone know what is in the flavorings so I can make it myself?
GardenersCardiff answers:
I roll my own cigarettes, when I desire a different flavor I put in a few slices of fruit,{like 2 or 3} of apples, or orange or lemon rinds, fresh mint leaves etc, keep in the refrigerator or other cool place, just be sure not to over do it or your tobacco will get too moist, even just 1 small slice will keep your tobacco from drying out without adding flavor.
Mark asks…
Is it legal to grow ones own cigarette tobacco?
And can I sell the surplus? And must it grown in the Virginia area?
GardenersCardiff answers:
It is legal in all fifty states to grow your own tobacco. It’s even legal to sell whole leaves so long as the mid rib is not removed. It can not be processed in any way or you will have to get a license to sell it. Some states may have limits on how much you can grow so check before planting a whole field of it.
Ken asks…
Is it illegal for someone under 18 to grow/smoke their own tobacco?
Tobacco is a regulated product with an age restriction on it, right? But it is, indeed, a plant (*cough* just like marijuana, so why is THAT illegal? *cough*). So, I was wondering if it was illegal for someone under the age of 18 to grow tobacco on their own accord… also, if it was illegal for them to pick and dry it themselves and chew or smoke it? This is in regards, mainly, to North Carolina, but if you know the rules in any other state or country, I’d be interested in knowing that, too. Thanks.
GardenersCardiff answers:
I grow my own tobacco in Arkansas and no one has bothered me. Not yet, anyway. Tobacco has other legitimate uses besides human consumption. It is a beautiful plant, attracts hornworm moths away from your tomatoes, and can be used to make an organic insecticide. It grows fairly well in pots and can even be used as a houseplant.
North Carolina Tobacco Law
Purchase by persons under the age of 18 years:
* It is illegal for anyone under age 18 to buy, to attempt to buy, to receive or to use a false or misleading proof of age for the purpose of purchasing or receiving any tobacco product or cigarette wrapping papers.
* Persons under age 18 engaging in such activities are guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor, which is a criminal offense punishable by up to 30 days of community service and up to a $1000 fine.
I don’t see anything here preventing you from growing your own. It does not say that possession is a crime either. “Receiving” means getting it from someone else, however. If you get it from a plant, is that “receiving?” I would say “No,” but a judge might say otherwise. Also, you cannot buy rolling papers. I don’t think that you would stop a cop from writing you a citation by saying, “It’s legal because I grew it myself.”

Ken asks…
growing your own tobbacco in China?
I want to grow my own tobacco inside my apartment. Is it illegal here in China? is the law enforced? whats the punishment? Is it high maintenance plant?
GardenersCardiff answers:
Since you incorrectly spelled the word tobacco as “tobbacco”, there is little reason to believe you are interested in that unhealthy plant. Instead, I suspect that you have aspirations of growing a different type of plant in your apartment.
Possession of marijuana is a death penalty offense in China. The amount of illegal drug involved is irrelevant. 1 gram or 1 kilogram gets you the death penalty.
Enjoy your visit to China.

Mandy asks…
Is it legal to grow your own tobacco plants at home in Australia?
Just say two or three pots for your own use. Chop chop is illegal but I wonder if a few plants at home is ok?
GardenersCardiff answers:
Yes it is, you can even buy seed legally.
However, you must document each plant, showing weight, etc, to prove it is for your own personnel use.
