Tobacco plants in the green house. They have grown well, some of the plants became over two meters high. I have cut off the leaves several times as the began to turn yellow.

Ready for a test. I add alcohol with herbs that give tase and moisture to the tobacco. I had a plan to make cigars but it is a complicated process which requires fermentation and large amounts of leaves to make the happen. So I end up with tobacco for my pipe.
