How to Grow Tobacco; Part 3: Repotting Yo Sproutling Plugs

1 month to the day! We move the tobacco sprouts into a slightly larger container for root development. This is where the 'easy out' seedling starter trays pay off!

Very fragile root system and stems are easily damaged, take care not to break tear or bruise the plant!

Check it out, we sell this stuff!

Hey! Great videos! Btw, around this time during indoor replanting is when I would also put a fan on them - very lightly oscillating - it helps strengthen their stalks. How does the virginia taste? I'm thinking about growing some for a pipe mixture...

@douggerthebarber awesome suggestion! I do find the indoor starting creates fragile stems at this stage! A fan would be excellent exercise so-to-speak!

hi, i planted my seeds and seemed to have produced about 5 differenct types of plants? they all look completely different but the ones that look the most like the ones you have there are much more dark green....

any help?

thanks

@rhulancorp5 Depending on your seed source, it sounds like you do have 5 different types of plants! Either that or a cross-pollinated plant which can happen if your seed supplier grew several different type of tobaccos in the same lot. All of your seedlings should look the exact same as they are sprouting assuming you have consistent light and warmth.

Haha just discovered the wonders of saving lids planting some N. Rustica & N. Sylvestris today.

@SurfMonkeyCoconut ...spot. These seeds are very tiny and fragile so I wouldn't recommend putting them in your freezer, standard seed handling techniques do not apply for these babys!

You can order either from our website or our ebay listings, I highly recommend the 2011 year, its been the best germination year yet! I think between our growers and our studies, our seeds offer a very high value for your dollar!

@KingofComputing Sweet! Yes, low overhead = low prices, we contract on a very small scale with a few people in central wa who grow the mother plants for us! Yes if you are in the northern states, its a little late to start. The good thing is that the seeds grown for 2011 is a tremendous year with a near 99% germination rate, the most important factor is humidity exposure, but these come in a fresh sealed plastic baggie, so they are stable for a few years so long as you keep them in a cool dry

went to your website and found your ebay, put those in my watchlist so if i decide to buy and grow i'll get them from you, a LOT cheaper then what i was looking at before! just want to know, since it's late in the growing season for us up north, will these seeds keep if i stick them in the freezer like vegetable seeds?
