Yes but I think I was a little bit to fast with those pictures, because I picked One picture with seed in water, but it's not tobacco seed in those..

Yes Charly I do it early this season and let them start their life with little light instead of extra lights. I did the same thing some years ago and it works pretty good. But they are actually from grow check of some seed.1.Lockwood Burley.2.Tofta. 3.Little Crittenden. 4.Small Stalk Black Mammoth. 5.Criollo#98. 6.Corojo#99. 7.Habana#2000.So far but I have some more that I shall grow this season, but I have not designed if I going to follow my hart, head or the boxes I would need to grow yet..

That's a pretty good list :)
You are growing some nice cigar strains !
The "Tofta" from NicoTa seems to be "tabac brun", why did you choose this specific strain ?

Yes it's always hard to decide what to grow and what not to grow :) I think we have all the same problem :D

Tofta was a really easy choice for me, It's one of the variants that was growing in South Sweden from eat least 1921 (perhaps earlier than that) last time I have found information that they grow it was 1958. So it is one of the earliest two variants that I can say is Swedish variants. But here in Sweden all of the seed is dead (we quit growing tobacco 1964).

Yes I use to grow some cigar variants. But that doesn't mean that they are better than other variants for me. You know I make oral-snuff (snus) and not cigar.But this variants are interesting. Habana#2000 have I growing 2-3 seasons and should not grow them again but I did a grow test before I sent away my last seed. So after this season I will stand here again with new seed... LoL I planing my grow very nice but never follow it.. But "That's part of my game".

I always prepare a list and end up growing something different !

As you say : that's part of the game. :)

If you solve the technique of posting photos from your phone, post the instructions, and I will add it to Knucklehead's thread on the subject.

Hasse, I do too. I have discovered though, that if I crop all my photos, even just the tiniest bit, that it always works.
