Hi there,
I'm attempting to grow a small crop to turn in to Swedish Snus and have chosen Black Mammoth as my main variety because it is a good dark leaf and presumably quite rich tasting with it. Does anyone know if there is a preferred variety to grow for this kind of tobacco?
One further question is - should I remove the suckers on my plants for this kind of tobacco - or will I get a larger crop (of smaller leaves) if I leave them on to bush out? I'm certainly not going to be using them for cigar wrappers!
Cheers
