Uncommonly tried cigar fillers for home growers

[SmokesAhoy]

When I roll, the filler is so dry it is noisy but doesn't crumble, sometimes it splits though. Binder is a little moister so that I can roll it, keep a pot steaming so you can ensure it isn't too dry. Works every time.

^^^^

i will give it a try,, perhaps sooner than i think<

i'll watch my old video, and see what i did, and what i may want to do differntlly,

perhaps a more precise cut, on the wrapper,,,, e,t,c,

..

I agree with Bob,
Chicken, you got the rolling part down you just need to practice. Its not like your gonna have any shortage of baccy to experiment.

If I screw one up I set it aside and start over till I decide what went wrong. I highly recocomend using at least a fermented wrapper even if all else is raw leaf. A pound of Bezuki goes a looong way.

Thank you! Thats been one of my my hold ups on experimenting with fermenting. I can't find a 110 thermostat without driving 80 miles and When I do drive 80 miles its usualy not my priority. The 08143 certainly looks to be 110 and can be ordered online if loews does not have it , will find out soon enough.

I know it's not driving distance, but Central Arizona Supply carries loads of them, and they are willing to do mail order if it comes down to it for ya.

The beauty of a "messed up" cigar, imo, is that you can chop them up and pack them into your hand carved briar pipe, with rosewood stem and purple heart inlay.....just sayin.....

Welcome back steve2md, About damn time.

Yeah, It's been a hell of a roller coaster ride for me, and I apologize for just cutting out like that. There were marriage issues. Nearly got a divorce, but I have moved back in with the wife and kids, she's done a lot of changing and even got some professional help and meds. Things are looking up.....except for this tiny house and the severe lack of good cigar tobacco.....lol
Good to be back on the board though....feels like "home"

Sounds like things are looking up, I'm glad for you.

They really seem to be looking up. Here's to crossing fingers.
