What are your recommendations??? What strains/types of seed should I go for that can do both equally well?
but there are others on here that would kill for it.
I believe Daniel that the MCY is much mellower than the tn-90. It may be just my experience of the tn-90 leaf position that I have tried, but it mixes well with the Virgina flue cured from FmGrowit as a cig. a little strong. Great cigar , I may have had mostly upper leaves because when I got curios about cigars FmGrowit sent me a realy fine sample pack. I think thats one of the reasons I'm growing so much Bursa this year and next year orinaco blanco. I can't speak to the dip but plan on researching the snuff section for some new aquaintences that showed interest recently.I hae heard that Bright Leaf Flue Cured is a good tobacco for cigarettes. The Flue Curing is the hitch at this point. I grew mainly Monte Calm Yellow, considered to be the same thing as TN90 or at least real close. and Yellow Twist bud last year and it makes a cigarette tobacco that is just fine for the 4 smokers in my house. THere is a little Bright Leaf and Bursa in the mix but not a lot.
I have since found out that a good place to start for a cigarette blend is 40% Burley, 40% Virginia and 20% orientals.
The dip as I understand it is prety much any old trash from making cigars and cigarettes. including stems and stalks. NOT sure if that is true.
