Ever year Ive grown tobacco its different. It's a learning experience and the school of hard knocks is a good teacher. Next year I'll start later, Mine all got wet feet, too much late frost, and neglect from me being gone. I planted twice as much to help make up for all my shortcomings.

 

[Boboro]

I put plants I mite need for replacements and what was to small toplant in cups and moved them to more sun.

[Boboro]

I wish that was what I did today. I had a broke 2" water line when I got to work. Had to dig it out by hand and wollow a round in the mud to get a new pipe on. Then load 50 big trusses by hand.

We gettin a good rain here.I needed it bad. It hasnt rained since I put out the plants In the back gardens. thought I mite have to start dragin hosees around. Plantins done for a few days but I mite have to startputtin up post and wire to tie up plants. I havent been able to put down mulch. A little wind has been blowen and newspaper is hard to work with.This rain makes me wish I had a bottle.

We're getting a shower right now too. It wasn't supposed to rain until tomorrow, so maybe we'll get a good one then.

I really like that front yard plot.

 

[Boboro]

I got mixed feelins on it. It looks good and makes good but its more work and I just like grass in the front yard. I think I will grow less next year and buy some leif. I need to give the dirt a rest. And build up the organic matter in it. Im havein some slug damage in the back garden.I need to kill them when it drys out but they dont do as much damage as the worms and I and Im not gonna smoke the holes any way. When it gets around 95degs. they dry up Like buggers. So I ant to worryed about them.

my front yard is the only place I really have "full sun".........I would do it for sure if i thought the Missus would let me get away with it. lol.

I've found it's much easier to ask forgiveness than permission. (and you get your way more often)

 

[Boboro]

If I need the front yard Ill use it but I enjoy mowin and like havein a lot of grass.

I had a little ukder 1" of rain with thunder and lightin also some strong wind. The plants held up well to the wind and they came alive. The sun is out now.
