thank you

I will try to use accelerants to keep the tobacco burning

 

[constantin]

thank you

This will take 2 weeks: one week to find the accelerator, and another week to ferment the tobacco with the accelerator. I have time, I'm not in a hurry.

When ignited, natural tobacco leaf should smolder briefly, then go out spontaneously. Commercial cigarettes contain accelerants to keep the tobacco burning, even when you are not puffing on it. If you are using your own, home-grown tobacco, and not adding any chemicals to it prior to stuffing it into the cigarette tubes, and you are packing it densely into the tubes...

...then I suspect that your commercial, cigarette tubes are creating the problem with dropping ash. Try a different brand of tubes, or start with plain cigarette papers, and hand-roll them to experiment.

I'm thinking of finding potassium citrate.

 

[deluxestogie]

What I was suggesting was that you seek to avoid accelerants.

thank you

I understand, but I want to do a test, then compare the effects of the chemical products with the holes in my pants made by cigarette ash.
