I killed my cucumbers with a spray of steeped tobacco stems and Palmolive. I think the water was too warm, still. The peppers did fine.

I'm glad to see after all this testing, tasting, and grading you find the wlt leaf is by far the better product over commercial and Leafonly. Is...

A few days ago I posted a message about the troubles I have with one of the Oriental leaves. I identified it to be a Krumovgrad leaf from...

I've never used neem oil. Once...only once, I tried some "organic" pesticide made from oil of thyme on some seedlings. It killed everything it...

The recently replanted Prelip (left) continue to improve. However, the Duzce (right) seem very unhappy about being sprayed with neem oil... I'm...

I like them they are a smaller diameter and a real tobacco taste

And some other guy said, "He makes it rain on the just and the unjust."

As Sidhartha might say, "Your weather is impermanent." Bob

No problem just because a leaf looks perfect cosmetically does not make it a exceptional product.

See, this is why I don't believe in karma as a cosmic force--rather, it is just a general principle of what goes around comes around, because you...

It's a promise, in a month you'll be in shirt sleeves! I know that some would disagree with my thoughts of how hard winter in Texas can be. But...

Thanks for the offer. At this point, I would have to displace some of my veggies to add more tobacco. Bob

If you happen to change your mind and have a extra spot . I will have CT Broadleaf plants I can send you .

They look healthy. My Duzce seedlings are wee babes. Bob

These are 7 Düzce plants as of today

If it has been a while since you grew CT Broadleaf then you may be able to grow it now . Back years ago when the south was covered in tobacco patches...

I'm living vicariously through Sid.

As I sit on my porch, puffing a stogie, I wonder if that's a promise. I'm wearing a fleece vest under a fleece jacket, have fingerless gloves on my...

I wish that I was growing! I've moved twice in the last three years, making it a little difficult. If things stay smooth, I'll start some seeds next...

Hey, leverhead. I haven't seen you here recently. Are you growing this season? Bob

I like like your tamper and the story! That will be my next project, probably not quite as frowned upon as an empty rifle cartridge case.

The origin of most tobacco varieties developed during the 20th century was the need to find resistance for specific diseases. The thousands of GRIN...

I love Long Red, the only problem I have with it, it gets loads of diseases, I planted it with Little Dutch and Conn B Leaf and both were fine By...

VA vs. WA: Vee Ay vs. double Vee Ay. No wonder we're on the same schedule. Bob

It looks like we are on about the same schedule. Good Luck! Wes H.

I'm expecting to put these out to the garden bed in 3 to 4 weeks. Bob
