I learned of growing tobacco last summer and have been reading this wonderful resource heavily since then. It was too late in the season for me to grow any last year so am looking forward to doing my first grow this year. Finally signed up today and will continue to read and learn as growing season approaches. I want to contribute when I can but being first year will probably be mostly listening and asking an occasional question.
I will be working with a limited growing area, probably 50-75 plants; and trying to maintain them along with a 50+hr/wk job. I have settled on two varieties I want to try; silver river & YTB. both seem to be heavy yielders which I need with my limited space and the hint of menthol folks talk about from the SR really interests me. Both of these seem to be condusive to air curing too which is also important to me. I also would like to grow a turkish variety if someone can suggest one which has good yield and is easy to cure.
If anyone has seeds for the SR or YTB they would like to sell I would prefer to get them from a member here than some random internet source. Willing to pay a fair price.
Looking forward to my first year growing. If I can have 7ft tall tomato plants I am truly excited about seeing what tobacco can do.
