Heya guys! This is my first grow. I found this website a month or two ago when i was looking for info about rolling cigars - Since then i've come for help because my tobacco plants werent really growing after 16 days since germination
I'm not sure how often i'll update this thread - I probably will just update when there is alot of growth, pre/post transplantation, curing, and finally smoking the finished product. I'll be uploading pics via Imgur so i don't have to resize them
I'm mainly just doing this as a fun experiment, i love the idea of smoking some tobacco grown in my own back yard. I'm an everyday smoker, usually a cigar or two a day, plus 6-8 bowls of pipe tobacco (Dunhill Royal Yacht is my favorite)
I'm currently planning on growing 3 plants. As the title suggests, they will be a KY16 Burley, TN86 Burley, and Bright Virginia. I have 9 seedlings(3 of each) and will be using the strongest plant of each strain. The seeds germinated on March 3rd, And i'll be updating my pics with an "### days old" the number being days since germination
Heres my first set of pics, this growth was all before i installed a plant light: 16 days old http://imgur.com/a/VkIVF
Heres my current set of pics, taken today 3/22/17. The grow light has been on for 3 days now, first for 8 hours a day then i bumped it up to 12 hours a day and they seem to like it: 19 days old http://imgur.com/a/nr8aQ
I also recieved my SuperThrive today, and added that using 1 drop per cup of water, as per the instructions on the back of the bottle
Thanks for reading! I'm sure i'll be back with updates soon enough
