I've noticed several vendors selling tobacco plants at the Maku'u market. Some of my ohana have been growing and propagating them with great success also.(They use the dried leaves to roll joints).
I've tried an internet search (google) to find out the legality of growing your own tobacco in Hawaii. From what I can determine (with dial up) it's legal to grow your own for personal use, but if you cure and process it, you should report it for taxation.
My question: Is it illegal to sell the live tobacco plants commercially? In other words; Not for your own personal use?
