Tobacco
$
Tobacco, traditionally associated with smoking products, has additional utility in food forests. It can serve as a green manure to enhance soil quality, and the nicotine-rich leaves can be used to create natural pesticides to deter certain insect pests. When cultivating tobacco in food forests, ensure well-drained soil, full sunlight, and appropriate spacing to harness its soil-improving and pest-repelling properties, contributing to the overall health and sustainability of the ecosystem. However, its toxic nature should be carefully managed and monitored to avoid misuse or harm to the environment.
