That’s a Nicotiana rustica
I agree.

The seed of Nicotiana rustica is roughly twice the size of the seed of Nicotiana tabacum. Rustica always shows stubby, yellow blossoms, while tabacum blossoms are usually long and pink. Also, most N. rustica leaves are petiolate (free stem at the base of the leaf).

EDIT: That being said, I would plan to allow the leaves to fully yellow on the plant, prior to harvesting. Expect potent tobacco.
