Ironically, vaping is what helped me quit nicotine.
Same here, I hated the smell of cigarettes and vaping was the absolute easiest way to slowly drop my nicotine consumption until I felt I no longer needed it. I quit for a few years but have since gone back to pipe tobacco/cigars occasionally and/or dip now. I have grown my own tobacco this past year and it's surprisingly not too difficult, but curing has been a pain in the ass to get right. Has to stay moist and warm but not too moist or too warm or else it gets moldy fast and requires attention almost everyday. Most of the tobacco I grew is now relegated for use as insecticide for the garden lol.
