Granted i have only made 5 sticks,
when i buy from Leafonly, i buy the samples which are 1/4 lb and is plenty. good prices at 5-10$ per 1/4 lb
youtube is your friend when learning to bunch, bind and wrap.



@Lanks- Leafonly.com ships to Canada.
@blak Smyth- i have ordered some better wrappers, the ones i intended to use the first time had some larger veins. the mold in the picture is from JpRose in Ohio, it is a good hobbyist mold.

I purchased one like this

If you need a blind taste tester let me know
I would love to get into this but it would be a huge downer if they all came out to be dog rockets

got some CT shade leaf for the wrappers. I also have Ligero, and Seco fillers from nicaragua.

and here is organizing the wrappers, spreading them out as they were bunched together, moistening the leaves etc..
