Does that mean they are fully mature ?
I have never noticed this on any other Baccy plant.

My ytb stalks have been almost white since they started. Seems to be no problem and should make for easy curing.

ive found that the white stalk varities cure very well.

ive done and am doing WHITE STOCK BURLEY, but last year i did the y.t.b.

but those plants look like they could mature some more,

All Burley/White Stalk varieties do this. They don't do chlorophyll well.
Thanks Don
I have never seen it before so i checked my va 509 and they are a little yellow also.
