I finally started my grow blog! My first year of growing tobacco.
Here is a photo of my patch of 50 Burley TN90...
And a photo of my patch of 50 Yellow Orinoco...
Closeup photos of a typical transplant (Left Burley TN90 and Right Yellow Orinoco)
Note: The pictures are deceiving as these seedlings are about 12 inches tall.
The above seedlings were transplanted last week when temperatures reached 95 degrees. (I know - it's a little late in the season for transplanting. Better late than never!)
The TN90 seedlings/transplants have yellowing outer leaves but have a strong inner green stalk. I am not sure if I should remove the yellowing leaves or let them die-off on their own. There was no yellowing of the Yellow Orinoco leaves - they remained a dark green, but you can see that the sun scorched off part of the leaf - I noticed that this is common for the Yellow Orinoco transplants.
I have also planted some Florida Sumatra, Zimmer Spanish, Connecticut Broad Leaf and Yellow Pryor. I'll post those pix soon.
