Scavenged a bunch of mismatched pots & transplanted them. If they really take off I'll have to upgrade to 5 gal buckets down the road. But potting mix is expensive... and I'm cheap 
10 in pots, 5 in the herb garden.

Picked some of the more mangled / yellowing / smaller lower leaves to make way for new growth. I'll post a pic of the plants soon if anyone is interested, they're getting big!

Here's my early harvest of leafage... Mostly smaller / mangled / less healthy foliage removed to make way for growth!
Check it.
What should I do from here? Just leave it to air cure for a long ass time?

get a peace pipe and blaze that shit up famalam
Seriously though, are they stronger in terms of Nicotine content than a Cigarette? (in the UK the maximum is 1mg of Nicotine per pre-rolled normal size cigarette which is .5g i think) also did you get a picture of them before you took the leaf off?

I've never done it personally, but it seems that a 'cure' would be in order as well as drying. Curing is what gives flavor and removes the harshness of the smoke. Basically, some of the sugars in the plant ferment or something to enhance the flavor. Without a cure, it will likely be harsh and not too tasty...
Like I said, I've never done it myself, but you might wanna look into curing tobacco. But even without a cure, yes you can go ahead and smoke it.

I got hasty with mine, just dried in a dehydrator and smoked. Very, very harsh. I'm not a cigarette or tobacco smoker in general but I really enjoyed this stuff, real nice buzz effect.

I hung mine in an old fashioned shitter "or out house". It wasn't harsh by any means but it also wasn't nearly as strong as a store bought cig.

AFAIK tabacum is the standard for cigarette tobacco 
The plants these leaves came off are actually still going strong and have many times more leaf yet to be picked.
1234 did the leaf dry green?? A slower dry time allows chlorophyll to leave the leaf & dry yellow/brown which i believe plays a role in how enjoyable the resulting smoke is.
I'm in no rush really, I quit cigs a while ago mainly just wanted to do this for the novelty and because I never had before.

spaceman -
Which tobacco were you growing? I'm referring to Rustica in my posts, I hear it's particularly strong & potent. It was definitely better and more potent than any tobacco I've ever smoked.
CannAbyss -
Yeah like I said, I got impatient and kinda "flash dried" them. It dried green, yes. I did it on a low temp in the oven once, but in a food dehydrator most of the time.

Yea was referring to Havana there but I have had some seeds that I got in trade and they actually were rustica "of some kind" seeds but the plants really weren't that strong. I was sad but I've got some Rustica hopi indian tobacco I've been growing a bit of that I already know is good.

The rusQuote:

Do you mean the plants weren't strong, as in the smoke was weak? Or that the plants themselves didn't GROW strongly? Asking because when I've planted the Rustica, they seem to flower and go to seed really fast. Never growing very big at all, maybe it's due to the conditions I had them in,
