RE: I Grow My Own Tobacco, No Fertilizer, No Pesticide and LOOK HOW HUGE IT IS!

Damn woman - you got an amazing handful of leaves right there!

So you plant the seeds in late March? And then water them from the bottom?

I'd love to try this next year. Maybe when I get a few more Steem Dollars I can send a few your way in exchange for some seeds? (I just powered up and spent the rest of my allowance on a custom trading card from @steemitadventure (!!!) but should have some funds coming sooner or later...)

Are you going to air-dry or flue-cure the leaves? What about cutting and rolling them? I can't wait to see the rest of the process!

Yeah our curing method needs some serious work, we really need a set up for it. Last year I dried them on my herb drying line in my kitchen. The leaves didn't get that nice golden brown colour. Growing it is the easy part...curing it...is a bit of a bitch if you don't have the right tools...we'll get there eventually.

This year instead of drying it in the house, I'm trying to dry it in the greenhouse. Will see how it goes...

I'd gladly send you some seed, any way you want to send me your address, just shoot it over and I'll get em off to ya.
