Congratulations. Well done. :toast:

Now you will breathe only oxygen, right? Sell it or save part of it for possible converts down the line among your family/friends/acquaintances? You could even save it for organic bug spray for your garden?

Not to get to far off topic, But isn't nicotine bad for a lot of vegetable plants?

:offtopic: I don't think so. Where did you hear that?

The nightshade vegetable family members contain nicotine. They include potatoes, tomatoes, eggplant, red peppers. Maybe that's why I've read you shouldn't feed your pets members of the nightshade veggie family? :unsure:

Anyway, you're supposed to use the tobacco itself, so if you have snus or cigarettes in the freezer, you could use the following recipe for organic bug spray

Homemade tobacco Bug Spray
Everyone is familiar with the negative health effects of cigarettes, but the nicotine in tobacco is poisonous to all kinds of insects as well. Gather enough cigarette butts to harvest ¼ cup of tobacco leaves. Place these in a sock, and soak them in a quart of water overnight. Avoid using this homemade insect spray on eggplant and tomato plants, as tobacco can harbor the mosaic virus.
