If we can farm nicotine with modified tomato plants... Can we grow cocaine tomatoes, which are easy as hell to grow? Asking for a friend.

I'll settle for good tomatoes year-round, minus the coke. I mean, sure, coke tomatoes would totally supercharge everyone's summer. But then the Big Dark of winter would suck so much more.

Do you have any concept of manic winter cleaning? Have some ceviche or tacos with salsa and get productive, clean the house with a toothbrush or write your novel and accompanying screen play during those long winter months.

S.A.D. no more, geek on tomatoes and get shit done.

Tomacco was a fictional product on the Simpsons, unless I missed something.

Which, if i I did, hey, neat.

I never got round to it, but when researching I think tobacco is about the same difficulty to grow as tomatoes

[–] Death_Equity 4 points 1 week ago

Tobacco takes about 90-120 days, tomato is 70-90 days.

Tomatoes also produce a large amount of seeds/fruit and are substantially easier to grow densely in a canopy with under hanging fruit.
