If there was a contest I'm sure your were the winner. LOL!!!!!!!

I don't know if that would give the leaves a spicy flavor or not. I guess it could. I'm not sure what the big tobacco growers use to keep away the leaf eaters. But I'm pretty sure they use something, because if left alone those things can destroy your leaves in very short order.

jfields is right. I was refering to the little stem and leaves at the base of the main leaf. We call these "suckers". The little specks on it is pollen from the blooms. I've sprayed them with a mixture of ground up tobacco leaves, black pepper, and dish soap. This keeps the leaf eaters away...

These have Gotta Go!!!!!!!

Here's a pic of a sucker. These need to be removed or they will rob the main leaves of the nutrients. I topped some of the plants last night. Some aren't ready yet. More pics to come!!!!!

Check out this leaf! Me in the tobacco patch Ready to be topped (remove the blooms).

Diesel, Just consider this as a learning year. You can move into full production mode next year!!!!

chefchris, I believe that they would grow fine in your apartment. Just use a large planter atleast 12 maybe 16 inches in diameter.

Hey Greg, those tomato plants look really good!! Are your tobacco plants in sand? If so I think they are having trouble extracting the nutrients from the sand.

One of my favorites on the smoker is this variation of a roast. Take a about a 3-5 lb. pork tenderloin, a 3-5 lb. quality beef roast. Now slice each roast about 1/2 inch thick long ways while unrolling. You will have 1 large slice of meat from each roast. Place one of the sliced roasts flat...

Here's my recipe for Pickled Jalapeno slices. These are really crispy even up to a year after canning. Enough sliced jalapenos to fill 4 pint jars. In each jar place 2 small garlic cloves, 2 whole alspice berries, 4 whole black peppercorns, and 1/2 of a bay leaf. Fill jars with sliced peppers...

I smoke quite a few fish, I only smoke the amount we will be consuming on that day and the next, so I don't use a brine. As for the wood use only hardwoods such as Alder, Apple, Cherry, Hickory, Mesquite, and Oak. I smoke Salmon, Bass, Crappie, and Bluegill. I'm not sure about the cold smoking...
