Has anyone ever grown Moonlight tobacco . I am thinking about it maybe 600 plants . It looks interesting by leaf color and size . Pictures were on www.nwtseeds.com Skychasers seed site

I grew Moonlight in 2013. It was grown in full sun. I was not particularly pleased with the quality of the sun-grown leaf as wrapper. (I had a similar experience with sun-grown CT Shade).

Notice how rippled the sun-grown leaf is at maturity. My guess is that this would be excellent, if grown under shade.

The sizes and good looking leaves is what caught my eye . I may forget about growing it this year unless I grow it with some shade leaf and put shade cloth on . Last year I grew without shade cloth and the rain made thin leaves . Bug also liked the rain and tender tobacco . No more totally organic growing for me .

The leaf size looks fantastic. Even I didn't see the big one before you shared. Thanks!
