A Strange Plant to Grow

#1
Well, it's not so strange on Saipan, an island where I once lived.  It's called beetlenut and it's a stimulant like tobacco.

Anyway, it has a lot of negative stigma - cause it's this politically incorrect plant that can cause massive tooth problems and also cancer, much like chewing tobacco.  OK, in this case, an ethical question arises on whether to raise it.

Do you really like to grow such plants? Tobacco can be grown easily in these days Hydroponics system can be utilized, but I believe here some Tobacco's are illegal to have.

I wonder what type of Tobacco it is any images? Ill try to search on flickr to get that plant.
