So no plumbing or electricity?
You have those but the conditions of the shed are
inadequate?
If you did do it would planting all semois be ok?

I have running water and an offal hole in the shed. Could probably rig up some power with the extension cord...and in reality I’d probably get just as much sleep as I do in the house with the 3 young ones...the main issue would be smoking it all. At currently roughly 10g or so a week, I’d need start smoking like Hoosier just to get through it.

when push comes to shove...I guess I just don’t have big enough cajones to convert our family homestead into a working tobacco plantation. I envision one would need at least dunhill group 4 sized ones to embark on that.

in terms of what varieties I’d grow, and in fact will be growing this season, equal amounts of semois, staghorn (dark air cured Virginia) and a bright leaf
