More curing = Less Nicotine?

I wondered, dark roast coffee actually has less caffeine. Does more curing reduce the nicotine in tobacco?

Since I didn't get a reply I looked it up. It seems not, as it seems to be more variety intensive than the curing method. Here's an article on it.

There are tobacco barns all over this region. Kinda neat.

There are some sticky threads in this forum that were educational, IMO.

I think a whole thread was on curing. Pretty interesting stuff.

I have a question...sometimes I see on tobacco reviews the reviewer state: this blend tested negative for nicotine in the lab. Is this an expression or do some blends really have no nicotine at all? I personally usually have to mix a plug or a rope into whatever i'm smoking. :scratch:
