If a slave overlooked worms on a tobacco plant, the punishment could vary depending on the severity of the infraction and the policies of the plantation owner. Common punishments included physical beatings, additional work hours, or public humiliation to serve as a deterrent for others. In some cases, more severe consequences could involve restrictions on food and basic needs, reflecting the harsh realities of slavery during that time.
