Vegetative tobacco plants 1-5-8

Some of the tobacco plants have entered the vegetative stage and are showing significant signs of leafy growth. So far these seem to promise a strong yield although limited by horizontal space.


The Walker's Broadleaf has definitely begun to grow at a much faster rate and promises a high yield. The smaller seedlings should be transplanted out soon to allow for maximum growth given the space provided.





I have constructed a timed top drip system and transplanted four of the Tennessee Redleaf and Midewivan Sacred plants into these containers. Redleaf on the left and Midewivan on the right. This system seems to work fairly well. I am pleased to report that all transplanted seedlings have survived and recovered from the move very quickly. Some of each plant have been left in their original home.
