Southside Virginia Burley Tobacco Harvest

Looks like they are packed in there pretty tight. Do you have any problems with house burn?

Also how many plants will on of those rack hold.I like the set up on those rack.I grow around a 100 to a 150 plant will one of those racks hold that much

For some one with a small tobacco crop wouldnt it be better to split the whole plant and then hang it.instead of stripping the leaves.and then when the plant is dried strip the leaves.

Would love to see video of take-down and stripping procedure

Unfortunately I dont have any videos of the stripping process. We do have that process semi-automated using a locally produced stripping line that conveys the whole plant by the workers and it seems to work out fairly well but still has some room for improvement. I will try to get some video of that this season.
