My 5th year. I got the seeds started yesterday. Six trays of 72 cells. I set two and a half trays with Turkish, but only three varieties: Izmir Osbas, Prilep, and Bursa. I'm aiming for a lot of Turkish production this year. I also planted a lot of Burley varieties. I need to stock up on Burley and I'm trying a couple of new varieties: Ergo and Gold Burley. I also started Kelly Burley, Harrow Velvet, TN 90 and Silver River. My only exotic variety this year is Mahorka rustica. I'm going to try to make Dokha. The rest are flue cured: Gold Leaf 939, Del Gold, Virginia 724 (I got that last year from GRIN and really liked it), Silk Leaf, Virginia Bright Leaf, and Bamboo Shoot.
