I've ordered 15 varietys from North Seeds but it looks like they are caught up in customs and I have to in some way pay 10$ in a fine.

That is Northwest Tobacco Seeds and nothing else..............
Good to see your early planning. Sorry to hear about the fine. It seems that commerce at even the most basic level is a mess.

That's a bit ruff. How come they can fine you? It's only seeds.
Anyways I hope that they will give you a good crop.

'Glessner', also known as 'Glessner Pennsylvania Seed Leaf' and sometimes sold by vendors incorrectly spelled as "Glessnor," its plants are attractive and produce large leaves with a fine, soft texture remaining elasticity after curing making it useful for cigar wrappers. It was also grown for use as cigar filler and binder as well.
'Glessner' is a very old variety, pre-dating the 1880s, and originating in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. It was, ". . . held in very high repute and is probably more grown throughout the section than any other."[2] Offered by Henry A.

We have 9 allotments in and around my city of Halmstad where the closets is a 2 miles from my home , but I don't think there is any lots to hire.
The lots are usually around 1000 sq feet and are made of clay

I am growing Glessnor this season. [The different spellings have been debated for about 150 years.] For 2020, Glessnor has been my most successful variety. Truly huge leaves.

I'm glad to see you back again POGreen. When I begin to grow tobacco 3 years ago I read your grow blog (very long grow blog) more than one time. It was so interesting because you wrote it with parts of your life, not only with tobacco information.

I make only snus and I don't know how that suits you.
