First I got to say, what a great forum.
Now a little about me.
I've been a smoker most all my life, but have never tried growing my own tobacco. I have been into gardening since I was a kid and worked in landscaping since 1988. I even spent a couple years in college studying plant science and have indoor growing experience with hydroponics and organic vegetable and flower growing.
I'm a widower living alone in the family home that has been in my family for over 80 years. I've only got a half acre of land, but it's enough for me to take care of and grow on. Currently most of it is lawn, but that is slowly changing.
I have a friend I ride (motorcycles) with who grew tobacco this summer in his garden. He had enough success with it to get me thinking about giving it a try myself. Someone I know from another forum told me about this forum, and here I am.
I know nothing about growing tobacco, but am pretty good with soils and the like.
So that's pretty much me, a 58 year old who is looking to grow his own.
