I've thought about trying but never done it...

Here is a site with excellent resources plus seeds available:

I grew tobacco as a teen, but it was horrible as I didn't know anything about drying or curing the leaves.

One type of seed that has me pretty excited is the re-introduction of pelo de oro. These are the original seeds brought out of Cuba, but have fallen out of favor because they are not a large yield and not very resistant to disease or pests. So they are pretty labor intensive. But they do yield an exquisite thin leaf, perfect for wrapper, and promise that old Havana flavor. I am so looking forward to some cigars with this original leaf coming out.
