Ottoman tobacco

[docfitch1]

I just received some Ottoman seeds from Don (new member seeds). Is there anything special I should know about growing, curing, etc. this type of seed? Thanks in advance. Ken

Ottoman is considered by many to be a semi-Oriental. It is a full-size plant that seems to be very productive. So, nothing special.

I had my ottoman spaced 24" centers last year and will move closer to 18-20" centers this year as well as my bursa. Its a real good smoke and I got my original seeds from BigBonner last year.

I got my seed from the seed bank today. 3 barG's and a leverhead. I should get 100% germination with that kind of expertise behind their production.

We "water" them with beer, filtered that is. Not the early morning yellow stuff, but the after breakfast clear. (NOT)

Yours was the Ottoman. I missed a full house by one leverhead.

Yeah, I understand that urea is not too good for tobacco plants.

I'm glad you caught that! It was directed at Knucklehead. I don't want to lead you astray. It's a nice plant, it didn't drown and it didn't mind dry hot weather. When cured, it mixes with flue-cured to make an interesting cigarette.

Nice recovery there Gomer.

i grew OTTOMAN and BURSA last year, to me both plants grow, and look the same,

a very mass producer, and the plant will grow tall if you let it go,

i'd suggest topping it at 6'

med. sized leaves nothing real big, but i found the plant to be a excellent starting bacca, as far as making a bacca mix goes for a cigg.

ottoman, 2 types of burley and some y.t.b.

makes the perfect cigg.
