The current kick in the guts for oil is reaking havok on the exchange rate.

So I watch it all the time out of habit....yesterday we hit 1.38 CDN for 1 USD and that is a 5 cent increase in 7 days.

So if you are making US purchases from Canada you might want to let it chill out a while. At a money store it will cost you about 145 for 100 USD.

Imagine 2 years ago or so it was even par....i already spent all that even par cash a long time ago :D lol

Its harder to grow and cure tobacco than cannabis. My wife used to pick it for a summer job when she was teenager. Back in those days she could make 200 a day doing it. Crazy.
It is nasty stuff. Sticky like rosin...bleh.

Now tobacco is a pariah so no one grows it...what is funny is not far from some drying kilns is the biggest outdoor weed farm (legal) in Ontario. The first nations own it.

Looks like schwag to me :D lol.

I quit cigarettes about 3 years ago, but after smoking for 40+ years, the damage to the lungs probably won't ever get better. Should have quit decades ago, but it is still better than it was when i did smoke. Do it, you won't regret it. Guaranteed.

See I always try to buy in Canada because of a couple things.
Cad to usa dollars
High shipping cost from usa seedbanks.
So im always on the lookout for Canadian seedbanks that carry some of the usa breeders. xotic and gta have some real nice American breeders.
But right now im sticking with Jimmy James @ worlds strongest seedbank as he playing with fire strains imo. Matter of fact I have almost everything he sells.....
