From the Back Cover Are you one of the millions of current smokers in the world? If so, then you know the risks--we don't have to explain that. But if you choose to smoke, wouldn't you rather smoke something that has been grown with the fewest chemical applications possible? Consider these points: Growing and curing tobacco for personal use is legal.Tobacco products are one of the most heavily regulated and taxed in the United States.A single tobacco plant can yield enough leaf to produce "as many as 100" cigarettes!Tobacco keeps extremely well for years.It's "easy"; If you can grow a tomato (or anything else), you can grow tobacco.By growing your own, you will know "exactly" what has been applied to it during growing and curing--because that's under your control. So what are you waiting for? You "can" grow your own tobacco, from seed to smoke.
