I have been using tobacco dust residue from a local manufacturing
facilty as a natural ferilizer in my pumpkin patch. The nitrogen and
rotting nutrients were great but I noticed very little bug bites and
insects eating the leaves and stems.
Researching the internet I have found organic gardeners us the tobacco
dust for the nicotine use. Its a natural insecticide repellant. I have
found after researching the matter online just add a teaspoon of
tobacco dust,teaspoon if black pepper and add water and a few drops of
liquid soap in a 20 oz bottle of water and spray on home and garden
plants for a insecticide and fertilizer.
Please search online for tobacco dust and its uses in your gardening.
I am offering tobacco dust for 2 dollars a lb. add shipping charges by
going to usps.com for calculating shipping charges. Michael keen 126

ummm... I'm curious about the "organic" thing, since tobacco itself is
one of the most highly pesticide sprayed crops in existence....?
