I guess mash or whatever too.
Looking for recommendations about how to homebrew some darts. Machines, filters/wrappers, and brands of tobbaco appreciated. How to maintain them, and store tobacco. I enjoy smoking, not paying this bullshit for a pack of smokes.

It requires a long growing season and high soil temperature. Start seeds indoors in February or early March if you don't live in Southern latitude with long seasons.rustica has high nicotine but is harsh and not the nest flavor. Virginia gold and burly are your key to smooth and flavor, but lack the nicotine most seek. grow all 3 and blend. keep your rustica under 10% or it will burn your throat, taste like shit and make your head swim.too much sun or high heat and drought will scorch it. you can see that evidenced in the tallest one I am standing by. leaves curled and it stunted growth. once harvested it must be dried for at least 2-3 weeks. you want around 25-30% moisture. then, you remove it and bag it tightly. purge the air & "ferment" it for at least 2 years. this mellows it. improper fermentation & curing will leave a harsh smoke. once it has aged you shred and treat according to intended use. most chewing tobacco benifits from significant addition of apple juice, cooked down to thicken, then stirred in. other flavors can be added to taste: brown sugar, maple, beech, clove, cinnamon, vanilla, mint, menthol, rum, brandy, whiskey, sherry, etc.shade grown tobacco is mellower. grow WAY more than you think you need or want. it will take minimum 3 years to get a usable product, probably longer if you want it to have any chance of quality. keep growing each year. your skill improves, product improves and when you finally get to test it year 3, you have successive batches maturing and testing each year thereafter.

I used to be dried tobacco leaves, blond and burley type, shred the shit in a grinder myself and smoke my rollies with it.Did this for like half a year before I stopped because you cannot do habitual smoking with actually unprocessed leaves. It burns too much and will fry your tongue. Heed my word anon, its not worth investing multiple hundreds in that if at the end you'll find that the smooth taste of marlboro is unbeatable.On a side note if anyone knows how to cure a persistant (multiple years long) oral thrush likely due to smoking im all ears
