true JACK ,,, baccy will absorb any oders that may be lurking around,,,,,
if you cure them next to your lawn-mower,

you'll notice they will get soft when it is humid { raining] and stiff when they are dry,,{ this is considered as going in a nd out of'' CASE'',,,]
the more they do this the better they will '' cure''{ smokable }
