Starting some brown leaf plants

[ChefJohnBoy-ardee]

Totally going to be starting some seeds for the garden in a couple of weeks. The father in law has a green house and a big garden. I've got a small garden and plenty of space of containers.

He smokes cigarettes and I like my pipe and cigars. I figured a bright Virginia would be a good place to start.

Our basements are dry. I figured we could dry leaves fine.

Muhahahahahaha

Sweet! The idea of growing my own tobacco sounds good, but I don't have the patience to properly handle it, and I have a brown thumb.

One of our members tried growing his own tobacco in NY a couple of years ago. I can't remember the thread name or who it was though.

Best of luck, John!

Good luck Chef!

I want in on the ground floor of this! If you achieve success, it'll push me to try it. I live in a coastal region where pretty much anything we put in the ground thrives. And I have this crazy dream of growing Texas Perique.

My dad did it here in Michigan years ago. If I find the pics I'll post them, if that's okay.

I'd love to see the pics. Do you know how it turned out?

Perique is more the process after it is dried.

I've gone as far as buying a book on growing your own tobacco, but that is about it. I may well try it when I retire. I look forward to hearing of your results.
