Latin: *Nicotiana tabacum*

The plant produces beautiful thin wrapper leaf for cigars, with a medium-strong aroma and thin lamina (side veins). Excellent as part of shag and cigarettes or in pipe tobacco. It balances multiple types to mild, making a mix "round" in aroma and experience. Plants reach a height of 140-180 cm and produce medium-sized leaves.
A "blend" (mixture) is composed from several varieties in varying concentrations to achieve an interesting aroma.

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

Sowing method: February-April indoors at 20-25°C or in May outdoors (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, press lightly, and mist moist: it's a light germinator! Prick out in time into potting soil to prevent growth stagnation. The plants can be moved outdoors in May, as soon as the weather becomes consistently warmer.
