this site is the best i've found.Its good fun and highly rewarding, frustrating and satisfying. for those above the equator its the end of the growing season but indoors is still possible.
living here in NC i have all intentions of trying to grow a small crop next spring i didnt find that site untill it was too late for this spring
Check it out but ive heard that those who pretend to run your country give free tobacco seed. Well i've seen other say they get it off the government so worth a look
Nope, can't do that living in a stinkin subdivision with a HOA to keep us tightly in control. :evil:
But if I was to take the time and trouble to grow something, it would be something that would give me a real experience. 8O :nana:

Free tobacco seeds from the US gov't. They will send them to individuals outside of the country for a small fee.
Hmm, it is a little funny that they will give away tobacco seeds when they don't want you to smoke. Anyway I think I may have to try growing my tobacco own out. One crop would be enough to last a long time. Though I doubt it will work in Colorado because it is too damn dry. We'll see what happens next year.
I have tried to grow some this year, it is a very tempermental plant and requires constant care. You cant just plant the seeds and water them like normal plants and the seeds are like mustard seeds, iddy biddy. Although my plants failed this year I am going to try again next year. You have to start them inside and let them get to a pretty hearty size before moving them outside. And they need a lot of moisture, if you have a greenhouse I would say the success rate would increase.
pluck the leaf or grab the whole plant and hang it somewhere warm and dry not too warm though have a bit of airflow around them, and let it be. 4 about oh i dont know ages......
others hang untill the leaf has lost its green then put it into a kiln to help age and ferment it. but there is oodles and ooddles of info online about it

its funny but over here you will get in more trouble selling the tobacco than you do for selling the green kind. its freakin madness. though i thinkits cos you are robbing the government of their hard earned excise and taxes, and we cant rob them
Though its ok the other way round.
