Wendy... I am also growing some Native American tobacco this
year and did some research, tobacco needs time to dry in order for it to not be
so harsh. The sites I saw reccomend a drier that would do the job quickly,
another said allow it to cure for about a year (dry on a screen so air can
circulate around it. I did see one site that said they allowed the leaves
to wilt
in the sun for a couple of days to soften them. These were then stripped from
the stem, tied in bunches of about ten and hung upside down indoors to dry.Once
they were dry, they misted them with water to keep them soft and pliant.
They were misted two or three times a day, everyday, for about a month. After a
few weeks the leaves changed from yellow to a lovely reddish brown colour and
the room began to hum faintly of tobacco. then they shredded the tobacco by
pushing the leaves through a coffee grinder or a kitchen blender..

.... Only problem is, how do we turn a plant into
smoking tobacco? We know almost nothing. Can you point us to some
info? Would really appreciate some help. ..
