you can grow your own...tobacco was one of the easiest plants I've grown...plus it's legal in america to grow and produce your own tobacco...hell opium poppy is legal to grow in america...just don't extract the opium...not sure about down there...can't be much different...I like growing my own tobacco because I know for a fact it's additive free, and there are so many different kinds you can grow to make so many different blends. I've been rolling my own cigarettes for awhile now...
