I was wondering the same thing as another way of introducing co2, and would it help maybe with insects given the tobacco juice mix to control spider mites etc

I remember reading that tobacco was toxic for our plants, I read that were not even supposed to TOUCH our plants after you smoke a cigarette or tobacco product until we've washed our hands.

with that being said I wouldnt smoke anything around my plants unless it was the reffer..but even that I do outside so..

Amongst other things, cigarette smoke has Formaldehyde, and Pesticides in it. Cigarette smoke contains over 4000 chemical compounds. Many are toxic, and some are known to be carcinogenic.

It is very bad to smoke around your babies.

I used to smoke weed near plants but I read that any kind of smoke will make the plant close up those pore things they have (the ones that absorb the spray during folier feeding) and you dont want those things to close up.

thats also why I decided not to spray the plants with soda water for C02 supplemntation, becuase I heard that it can clog up those pore things too

is this true? or is spraying your plants with club soda a good Idea?

as video said, the smoke contains about 4000+ compounds which are largely toxic, but this to human, plants for example use nicotine to kill bugs eating them, if you eat a pack of smokes this will put you either up to the lord's place or somewhere else. not so with a plant, that is why nicotine is used in gardening to spray plants to get bugs of them. same time can the tar contained in the smoke plug up the gaps on the underside of the leaves which the plant use to breath with, pretty much like with an human lung. so the smoke can harm a plant, the tobacco itself can be used as medicine. if you going for such treatment look for brands that use organic tobacco such as "American Spirit" or so. such brands use pure organic tobacco which is not chemical treated.
