I'm wondering- how many tobacco plants would you need to supply yourself with home-grown nicotine for vaping? I'm sure there's other complications like harvesting, extraction, etc. but I wonder how many plants would get me 1000ml of medium-strength ejuice for personal use

here is a link to the nicotine extraction part of the forum. I am sure you can get a good idea about what it would take in there http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/liquid-extraction-tobacco/

I stocked up on attys and juice (2 liters) during the first round of ban talks.....thankfully, never happened and the market (vendors/products) actual grew!!

During that time lots of DIY at home threads were born and many proved very real and useful.
Yes, you can make your own batt/connector with RatShack parts.
Yes, you can make your own atty with nicrome wire in bulk - not my idea of a 'Saturday in the park' but still....doable.
Yes, you can extract some nic from tobacco, get PG/VG OTC as well as flavors and vape it - not my all day vape but again....doable.

For this round, I guess I'm playing it in the middle. I have a current stock routine that keeps me supplied for at least a year and I currently don't intend to increase that.

I have a two liters of 100mg.
Two Bulli 's with A1 atties on the way
36ga Nichrome wire and still looking for wick

I'll be vaping well into the armageddon...
No more atties for me! Unless they don't ban them, then I'll just keep using my V3 :)

You can vape without an atty? What is a V3? I'm too new to this game to know. Appreciate the answers in advance. : )

Wow .... Where can i go to look at them, and how long does your juice last
This is the supplier subforum for the Chuck...
Thag Built / The Chuck

As with any device, the juice will last as long as how much vapor is produced.

More vapor, juice lasts less long.
Less vapor, juice lasts longer.

a V3 is a Puresmoker Prodigy V3 (one of the best mechanical PVs made IMHO)
No you can't vape without an atty. The A1 is an atomizer that will fit my Bulli that I ordered from Germany that you can replace the wire and wick on. The only part of an atomizer that goes bad is the wick (not usually) and the Nichrome "coil." Why buy a new atty when you can just replace the parts that go bad?

Anyways, I figured if we go into a ban, one of those would be ideal as you might not be able to find attys anymore. But you'll always be able to find nichrome wire and wick- so I'll always have an atomizer! :)

unfortunately, nic only stores for 2 years so after that I'll have to figure something out!
I think something will happen by then though.... but who knows?
