Planting and growing your own Organic Tobacco!

[@jessehawkins1136]

R.I.P. Larry. Ive only just found your channel and you've been a great help, rest easy.

[@drayve8590]

I was afraid that was the case! I just stumbled on his channel, and wondered why he hasn’t posted in a couple years. R.I.P. Larry! He seemed like a good dude! I just hope it wasn’t that thing ‘they’ wanted ALL of us to get, that was supposed to work SOOO well! Yet, from the beginning took MANY lives!!! IYKYK!

[@larrylhall]

Sorry I don't ship out of the country but try the web site how to grow tobacco forum there are guys in Canada I am sure you can get seeds from! Thanks

[@PerfectTiming-Turn10]

I started my seeds directly in the sun on the side of my patio and only one sprouted. Its been 20days today and its still growing, very small but still growing thank god. I thought I wouldnt have any luck growing these microscopic seeds but at least one came to live haha.

[@Louc72]

You're fabulous, mate. My dad tried tobacco seeds a couple of years ago, and I think he kept them in dark and humidity for too long and they all ended up with damping off. So he was really disheartened and didn't want to try them again. So I bought some seeds this year to get them started for him, and they're doing great mainly because of your vids. Now they're started, he's getting pretty excited and it's a good hobby for him:) Thanks so much!

[@larrylhall]

You are welcome Thanks!

[@webslave4u]

Hey Larry,,,my second attempt at germinating "your seed,,Big Thanks". First died from a too chilly a night "in the spare bedroom". The light wasn't enough to keep it warm. Now, starting to warm up here "East Texas" and I'm going to start germinating again later today. Won't have them in the chilly spare room but in the hallway "warmer" and in a large box with a light. Thanks for all the help info !

[@37crackerjack]

Glad you mentions little fan because tomatoes like the little breeze also. Flowers are so beautiful on the tobacco plants.Good video.

[@zoemeow7677]

was gardening and found this lovely plant as was sprouted on its own is pretty surprisingly pleasant nifty i suppose is blessed

[@jc-rq8or]

When growing taller crops like this you can plant low growing nitrogen fixers like clover to deal with the nitrogen and help with moisture retention in the soil.

[@virgnthermostat5928]

I never thought about that, I'm on my second year on growing. Makes sense to me.

[@sheldon20061987]

thanks for all the info my wife and I really appreciate it. We live in N.Y. and buyin ciggs here sucks so this year we are growin our own.

[@samkitten69]

hi, I'm like gardening and stumbled across your vid about growing tobacco, I can't grow the stuff in Australia coz it's illegal to do so, which sux, it have to go through the ATO for permisson and more then likey you won't get it, I think you guys are lucky to grow your own there, it cost me $13.50 for a lower shelf packet of cigs of 25, up to $20 or more for a pack of 25 top shelf, it is interesting to see how it grows tho but I can't grow it here :(

[@outlawcinema1]

Excellent video larry. Very informative. Self sufficient is my new motto. I'm brewing my own beer. Distilling my own liquor. And growing tobacco is my new project

[@larrylhall]

You can break it off or cut it either way it will not hurt the plant! Thanks for watching!

[@larrylhall]

Good for you! Join the revolution!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MiWilderness]

Thanks for the info! I started some Mohawk tobacco over here in Michigan and it's just starting to flower. It's amazing how tiny those seeds are.

[@PaulAshton-affiliate.]

Thank You, Larry, For This Video, I Am From New Zealand, And You talk About Packets Of Tailer Mades For $14 a Pack, They are $36 Here, And 30 Grams of Tobacco Is Between $57-00 - $67-00. Retail. So This year brought 1,000 for $20-00, Planted some in a Heap, Gee they Are real tiny, Took around 3 weeks to a month to come up, Have Put them Into small pots, But Have left It to Late As It Is going Into Autumn Now. I will put them Into 5-gallon Pails, But don't think They will Survive the winter Here. It was A Experience to see How they Would go, I will Start Earlier This Year, So I Know Now How To Start Them Off Now, Still Have a few Seeds left, I will Check Out Your Other Videos, Now That I have Subscribed To Your Channel. Thank you, Larry.

[@Mrironcloud25]

You're video helped me out to see how home growers grow their own tobacco. i plan to grow soil during spring and summer and hydroponically indoors during fall and winter and encourage friends that use tobacco to grow their own. i have wild aztec tobacco seeds coming so i'm excited to start growing indoors for now :) Awesome video.

[@vargus2012]

I have some seeds on the way. Very exciting

[@williampockoski5029]

Thank you, 2022 will be my first year trying to grow tobacco, thanks for the planting tips.

[@kristjanga22]

yes and the plants are inside as for now. but will go out in the next days

[@michaelbowman4596]

Good job larry! Only thing I suggest is topping your baccer lower toy will grow bigger thicker leaves if you do.

[@LeonardoDuljic]

just got my seeds took some time to Europe but at last they arrived :))) thanks a lot and keep up the good work mate :)

[@destinygutierrez7254]

your video was very helpful and had lots of good information plain and simple. thanks for posting! -- somebody had just given me three small plants that are more than ready to go into the ground and i have NEVER grown tobacco before & i don't know the kind of tobacco it is, does that matter and how can i find out the type it is?

[@fallenhorsemen]

I'm curious how you prepare the tobacco for rolling cigarettes. I use to purchase leaf tobacco from a guy out in California but I never could come up with a good way to chop it up to use it in my rolling machine. If you have any suggestions I would sure appreciate it.

[@JohnSmith-vm8rx]

Great video man. Love how informative your videos are. Your experience is a pleasure to watch, listen to, and study.

[@larrylhall]

They are 4 inch sewer pipe I suppose they stick up about 1 inch

[@441rider]

I was given indigenous Canadian ceremony tabac seeds years ago and 70% sprout still to this day.

[@kristjanga22]

I am from Iceland.. thats right almost at the north pole :) i have just put my seeds in soil and i will experiment with tobacco growing outside this summer.. i sure hope it will work.. and thanks for the video

[@sambertolucci1513]

Would cutting or snipping the flower head hurt the plant? or is it just best to snap off the head like you were saying? Thank you for these videos!

[@marcolettejo3044]

A really great video sir! I learned so much about planting tobacco, I'll come back tomorrow to watch your other videos

[@crazyskateboarding00]

its my first time growing tobacco and ive been using ur videos for instructions...unfortunatly i didnt read the part about not puting them into direct sunlight, instead of puting them in the shade for a bit then puting them into the sun....so ya i put them in the sun for maybe 20-30 min and they started to wilt like crazy....so im crossing my fingers i didnt kill them.

[@OutDoorsMan1342]

Hey Larry good vid But $14a pack is cheap here in Australia we pay $43 for a 50g (1.7 oz) pouch and $24 for a pack of 40 Taylor made

[@romelmadray1056]

Hi nice to see a fellow tobacco enthusiast and answers appreciated My question is how does the oriental and burley tobacco smell during the curing/drying process (not the fermentation process). I am going to dry them out on the veranda on a clothes hanger. Does the tobacco emit a powerful smell so that it smells that I am smoking all the time or does it smell like weed. I do not wan the neighbors calling the cops because they think I am curing marijuana. Do the plants whilst growing emit a scent. Again I am thinking of the neighbors bothering me and calling the cops.

[@larrylhall]

It is a sweet smell! Really rather peasant! Smells nothing like that wacky weed!

[@Allybaba2010]

I live in Ireland and our weather is very cold and wet here, Can you still grow your own Tobacco in this climate, Im only starting out Can you give some advice please..... Very little sun here.

[@grandpacavendish4422]

Hi Larry: Great video!! Very helpful. Thank You. I have tobacco planted in my organic garden here in New York. Two types for the pipe: Orinoco, and Black Sea Samsun (Turkish). So far, so good. This is my first time growing tobacco. As we get closer to harvest time, I may have some questions for you. Thanks again. Be Well. Ed

[@robertwright6146]

What a great series! I live in Michigan and you answered every problem I experienced when I tried to grow tobacco! I did everything wrong! Gonna try and grow my own pipe tobacco again next summer! Do you sell seed? Please let me know!!! 👍

[@JB-kx1he]

I got my seeds this year online off of urban farmer. First year doing it and they are already huge in their small pots. About to start hardening them off

[@ianpycroft4520]

i would love to get some seeds to grow this type of plants as I have Tobacco Trees in my yard so they would grow well here

[@BlueCollarMoto]

Great and informative video. Now I'll go back to see the first one about germinating. I'm looking at getting some farm land in a few years, and will be trying tobacco aquaponically in NFT tubes. I figure it will be a great way to grow on the many (otherwise unusable) hillsides I expect from any property I will be able to afford in the foothills of the California mid to upper central valley. I would be spacing them out between rows a bit more, and planting lavender in between the rows to keep out weeds, and shade the pipe tubes to keep them cool. Roots don't like hot water nutrient solution very much. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Hi Larry, omg! I did not know we could grow tobacco here in mn.. The heck with peppers and cucumbers, I want to grow Tobacco. How do I get starter plants??

[@claytonkeith577]

Mr.Hall are you still sending out seeds? Also dumb question would the plants be okay in a greenhouse during the colder months? Or would it be better to start after winter? I'm in Oklahoma and getting a late start. I'm interested in growing for pipe tobacco and cigars. I have also heard for different types, grow far apart to not cross pollinate, but I'd be growing in 5 gallon buckets hopefully in a greenhouse. Thank you very much for your videos and all your information.

[@gfskater1]

thanks and im from ND and i didint think it was possebil.

I would like to see a picture of the stand you have your grow lights hanging on. Looks nice a solid. Very interesting videos. thanks wlpartain

[@MrSeeker42]

Larry, I harvested my plants a little late and I have almost completely dry brown leaves (only on the bottomest part of the plant stalk) that now look like curled up cinnamon bark growing on the bottom part of the plant. Because they are so brown and dried, are they immediately smokable? What do I do with them?

[@hermandiestelkamp9271]

Just ran across your videos and love them so far. Definitely wanting to grow some tobacco it’s very sacred to my people. Gonna have to find a place to get some good seeds from as it’s probably way too late to take you up on your mail seeds to subscribers lol

[@florian8681]

but for how long is the light on when you put de tabacco plants in the cups? just 24 hours a day?

[@larrylhall]

No seeds right now but try Ebay!

[@seanharries5929]

Hi Larry I am going to be growing my own tobacco this year (I don't smoke but my father does and it'll save him some money) the fertalizer you spoke of about how much Manure and Wood Ash do you use? I was going to grow a few plants indoors as well so i was going to use the 5g bucket idea (those are just for fun though)

[@larrylhall]

I would put a hanful of wood ash and use about 1 cup of 10-10-10 fertilizer around the top of the bucket after you plant it! Thanks So Much For Watching The Video! See All My Most Popular Video's By Category On Pinterest! www.pinterest.com/larryhall50/boards/

I'm just in the first season auf growing my own tobacor here in good old Europe (Germany). Country i'm only growing Virginia. I have seen a lot of videos about harvesting tobacco, yours or the best! But I have one question do you have no problems with snails in the US? The red and brown snails here are a pain in the as, because they love too.

[@laisalawelua7275]

Thanks for the info. This is something I would like to try. I could sure use some seeds if you have some. I live in S. Texas and plan to get started this spring. I do container gardening using 5 gallon buckets, I have about 50 as well as other recycled/re-purposed plastic containers I use around the house and backyard for vegetables (We live in a subdivision so space restricted).

hi Larry, you have some great vids, just one question I have hardened off my virg. gold plants and some leaves have turned white but the plants are still ok. do I just nip off white leaves at this early stage or just leave them (am in England and have extremely hot weather at the moment) thanks n subbed.

[@bushweasel11]

Thanks Larry for the info, and I'm mailing as we speak, im excited! theres just too many additives in stuff today and doc has told me i have c.o.p.d but i love a good smoke man! so ,maybe a lil more healthier! lol, but how many seeds in each hole, and how deep? 1/2 inch? how much will 1 plant yield? I'll keep in touch with u thru the process but thx brother, Oh BTW, I got family there in roundlake,Mn just sayin.....take care Alan Caudill.

[@tattarfag4673]

Hi Larry, A guy living in sweden here. Do you have any tips for growing a single plant indoors in an apartment? I'm doing it just for fun but i still want to succeed. I bought a 30l pot, some basic pot-mix and i just bought a grow light. The plan is to grow them during the winter in a warm corner of the apartment. I also read that tobacco is related to tomatoes so i was planning to use tomato fertilizer, heard it works great. I was planning on using this since ash or manure isn't really a great idea in an apartment. Any tips? ideas? pointers?
