Nicotiana tabacum 'Maryland' / 'MD 609'

Product number: 542528
Origin: South America
Latin: *Nicotiana tabacum*

A good base for pipes or to provide a smaller proportion of aroma for cigarettes, rolling tobacco, and shisha. The high yield is partly due to the large leaves on the medium-height plants: 180 cm.
A "blend" (mixture) is composed of several varieties in varying concentrations to achieve an interesting aroma.

Tobacco plants are diligent bloomers, in sun or shade, dry weather or rain!

Names:
Latin: Nicotiana tabacum
Dutch: Aromatabak
English: Tobacco

Sowing method: February-April indoors at 20-25°C or outdoors in May (in a warm, shady spot). Always pre-sow in a seed tray. Use cocopeat with silver sand as the sowing medium, sieving the top layer extra fine (kitchen sieve). Spread the seeds over the seedbed, lightly press them down, and mist them until damp: they are light germinators! Prick out in time into potting soil to prevent stunted growth. The plants can be moved outdoors in May, as soon as the weather becomes consistently warmer.
