I think the expiration day for cigarettes are the same for like salt. Its the material that is holding it together aka the paper wrapper that expires. (for salt its the plastic container) Also, mold generally penetrate more into stuff then it looks, its more okey with dense cheeses but for bread its always recommended to throw the whole thing away if there is mold on it. I recon tobaccco leafs are somewhere in between

What's a good website to get seeds from any recommendations

the greener life uses a lot of plastic single use items...

Save time and money on power .. put the tobacco in a zip lock bag .. , mist with water lightly , put it on the dash board of your car ( in the sun ).. open up the bag each day to air out (overnight ).. rinse and repeat until it smells like chocolate and then you know it done . It should take about 7 days max🤗 .. warning .. it will stink your car out .. glass house would be better 😋

I live in Palm Springs where it gets 110 to 115. Can I just put the styrofoam and do everything except the light. Since I live in such hot weather wouldn't the Sun make that styrofoam warm enough

I'm on my first attempt at growing tobacco so fingers crossed. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. I hope our UK weather won't be too wet for the plants.

What do you use for bugs and stuff ?

No farmer has put his tobacco in a plastic bag to let it ferment back in the day they had tobacco barns or they just hung it upside down and I'm sure it got to 120 degrees in there but I don't know why you're putting it in a plastic bag

Use rubber bands instead of zip ties.

The reason cigarettes may have an expiration date is because the fermentation is done using a bevy of chemicals. Perhaps cigarettes taste more and more like these chemicals as they age, or perhaps the chemicals cause the tobacco to decay faster than regularly fermented tobacco.

Great video! A tip I learned from another channel about bunching leaves for curing is to use multi coloured elastics as they will allow you to distinguish between varieties while maintaining a grip on the leaves regardless of the state of drying.

you needed a simple temperature controller $3 this was not the case 8 years ago though.

Ph fuck no

Thank you. The specifics on what's happening out of sight was great.

What watt led will do them

Do you need to disconnect battery to do this on vx commodore 2000

thank you

Thank you!

Crap video

I have an old entertainment center that I can't even get rid of for free LOL

🤙👍

Great video! I'm in Northern California, and starting as you did. I've got the plants about 2 feet tall in the garden now. Building an enclosed area in the garage for the curing and a box for fermentation soon. Looking forward to how the project turns out. Enjoy your pipe tobacco! Cheers!

Excuse me would you be willing to share these genetics?

Guess his business didn't make it. Website is dead.

what is the earliest tobacco can be harvested?

It used to be that everyone grew their own tobacco except the city slickers

Okay i know it's my third comment but i finished watching and i have a big question : Can you color dry the leaves in a cold but humid climate? I'm Canadian and sowed them recently.

you may want to invest into a temperature controlled timer or controller for a fermenter. This is my first idea i saw when using a bulb. Pretty hard to find the right wattage for the right container.

You should still cut your flowers in case someone else is harvesting their seed nearby. It'll also push more energy into the leaves.

I grew tobacco in Southern Canada, the ones in ground grew 6+ feet tall, we had a breed Delhi 64, grew over 7, lower leaves 20 " long

For the home grower, is it a bad thing if they cross pollinate?

This is not your video!!! You just compiled the series from Surf Monkey Coconut and pretended it was you! 😡 m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKKyfIGdaL-Yl5I

They would germinate better in light. Tobacco seeds like light

hey man . awsome vid. are the vr and vs stalks the same set up ?

Some good info there buddy I can't wait to start growing mine gonna go for golden Virginia I'm in the UK so will be an indoor outdoor test lol

Your putting a light bulb in a polystyrene box what is wrong with you

Curious how long your growing season is. Im thinking about starting in February inside. Im in norther CA thanks

They do fine in those little pots? Ima use 5 gallon

Great vid!! That plant was actually extremely root bound. That's exactly what my veggie plants look like if they don't get transfer to the gardens

Do these plants smell very much i havnt even put seeds in just looking in to it

Good info!

Helped me out thanks

Just some constructive criticism... Way too long. You explain what you are going to do before you do it (standard practice) but then you do it and explain again, then you explained what you did. You are very wordy and speak quite slowly with a lot of long pauses. Your content is awesome and I loved the information... But rarely do I have this much time to watch a video. Thanks for the in depth descriptions and demonstrations. I hope you continue to gain sub's and refine your style slowly.

I always have problems with mold (white mold on stems green mold on leaf) in the color curing. stage any suggestions?

I sell tobacco seeds on Etsy, and will ship international. It's easier than you think. This listing includes Burley, Virginia, and Turkish seeds. All you need to grow and roll awesome cigarettes. www.etsy.com/your/shops/HanzyPlace/tools/listings/577768950

Thanks for this. Helped alot and only took a few mins to do. Some plastic broke but not suprising for old plastic

Hay try using a chicken incubator for the fermenter.

What about ph and ppm metersand also what nutrients will be best though? Im a cannabis grower looking to go completely self sufficient.

The leaves you pluck out at around 16:09. Are those any good for anything?
