Every things looking real good Workhorse.

The YTB is about the size when mine started vertical growth a week or so ago.
LOL You got a ways to go. I used to be 210 lb. on a 5'7" frame and I'm not "big boned". On medical advice (read that threats of disaster) I got down to 150
I'm glad you managed to get a crop this year. It wasn't looking good there for awhile. I think my patch may end doing something after all also. I may only get half what I was expecting, but it's better than a kick in a teeth. Way to hang in there bud.

yes, at least 3 sheets to do it right. Then you need about 10 eight foot 1x2x8' pt . That will build a condo that the females will come to, and we all know where the women are that's where we are.

How did you start out with your bat houses? Did you buy blueprints, buy a house to copy or just make up your own? Where can we get plans for one? I'd like to build a few myself.
Just Google "bat house plans".

Looks like even with the rain you got some nice plants.

Not quite what it started out to be. I got most of the Zimmer Spanish hung yesterday. The rest is still in the patch catching up. Next should be the VA Gold. The ZS sucker crop is a foot tall already, so I had to get the whole stalk out the way. I'm counting on that sucker crop to be better than the main crop, but after yesterday's 4" I'm not so sure. Each time it starts to dry out for a day or so we get slammed with more rain. How can I expect anything to grow!

Do you grow enough to get you through a whole year? How much do you grow? I'm trying to figure out how many I need to plant next spring. I only have 8 common burley's this year and had a late start on that. I can" wait to get a good crop, I have fell in love with growing tobacco. I always plant a nice garden about 75' X 75' each year.
