RE: Saving Up SBD for Steem Powered Raised Beds

in #homesteading7 years ago

Thanks for the tips! But other than the obvious, and possible deterrent, what can the tobacco plants be used for? Fodder? Well I guess not if it deters deer, it's probably not very great.. Maybe, living mulch or chop and drop "compost"? What do you do with it?

Sort:  

Definitely not good for fodder, the nicotine content prevents that from being an option. Other than using it as deterrent, alot of people grow it as ornamental plants. They're are some really pretty varieties out there, especially when they go to bloom.

I grow a few varieties - some to be used solely for insecticide, others as perimeter control for my gardens, and also grow a few others for personal use to save money by making my own cigarettes, plus the added benefit of not having the extra 500 chemicals added to it by the factory (yea, bad habit, I know).

Oh yeah that's what I figured! I will have to look into it to see if it's something for me! Hey no judgements from me man! :D
