I grow my own tobacco too and here is a pro tip I want to share that not many people are aware of If you don't mind the taste of fire cured tobacco and you want to fully cure your tobacco in just 3 days here is what you do. allow your tobacco leaf's to become completely yellow on the plant before harvesting them. Then get a digital masterbuilt smoker and put the tobacco leaf's in the masterbuilt smoker and set the temperature at 180 degrees fahrenheit. Then continue to smoke them in the masterbuilt smoker at that temperature for 3 full days and at the end of the 3rd day they should be fully cured and ready for fermentation I hope this helps some people.
This year I left the leaves on the plant to dry. I did try to hang and dry, and that is fine. I want to try the whole "Dry Natural" thing this year. Greetings from South Africa
Does this method work well? Any links to doing it that way? Is there any specific name for this method other than the "Dry Natural' thing? (I can't find anything under that name of doing it). Thanks.
I stripped insulation off some small gauge copper wire, tied one end up and pierce the loose end through the thick part of the central vein of each leaf until I've got all my leaves strung (wired?). And it's on my back porch where it gets to 110+ some afternoons. Makes good bright virginia.
Hmm air dried some early leaves off my plant. I waited until they were brown to take them down and they were perhaps too dry as they were falling apart in my hands as I tried to remove the stems.. How did you keep them so leathery the whole time? Just the bag?
Is it not advised to remove the green center stem, first, while drying the leaves? Does doing so take away from the flavor or quality of the final product? Thanks. @@smokinpipechannel9602

Great tip thank you
@@josenavarro3751 no problem, I'm glad to help
180°F = 82°C, that's pasteurisation temperature. So basically you're saying you can cure tobacco fast by keeping it at 82°C for 3 days?

Great stuff 👌 I think the faster you dry the more sugar you keep in the leaf, so fast is the way to go 👊🙂
Looks great 👍🏻 thanks for sharing

Very informative
Nice review
Thanks brother. Now I want a cigar 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome video!
Thanks brother! Cool smokes 🔥🔥🔥
Bro i have brown dust on the lead. Is it mold or normal? No specific circle, it is more widespread
De-stemming is such a PIA ... but obviously necessary ;-) 👍
So true, unfortunately mold is the other option! 🔥🔥🔥

I’m interested in drying the leafs whole like Fronto to roll cigars
Your can do that, don't dry them too much. If you do, you can rehydrate them, I do that in one of my videos.
Nice looking tobacco👍🏻
Thanks brother, tastes good too 🔥🔥🔥
But there is no casing? I saw ariege Piper he was spray lots of thing and a solution to let the smoke mild.
Your turn up mild without casing?
It's mild because it's been aged. Give it 8-10 months after colour curing and all the ammonia is gone 🔥🔥🔥
@@smokinpipechannel9602 very interesting thank you
