My grandpa grew an acre of tobacco when he was 13. He said the hard part (at least in the south) is these moths that fly around at night and lay eggs on your plants that hatch into something that eats the leaves. These must be removed manually on the regular. He explained the curing process, but it was old school (something like "tie them up and hang them in the barn").
Do you know what strains you have? There are different varieties for chewing, ciggarettes, cigars, and snuff.
