Well I am trying my hand out at growing some tobacco. I have 2 hoop houses that I’ll be growing them in. I have 1 row 40 foot x 3 foot and 30 foot x 3 foot so I’m hoping to have around 35 or so plants unless I can fit more in there! I have Connecticut shade and Connecticut broadleaf that I will be trying to grow.
So I got my seed today (yes I know late) but I am going to do my best! I have the soil pre wet and humidity dome ready. I sprinkled seed on top and misted afterwards to get a nice moist seed.
Lastly I put them outside today during the warmth and have them inside at night for now. I have some chicks going with a heat lamp so I have these seeds adjacent to them and the hood is sitting around 82-84 degrees which I have to think is a solid temperature for germination and growth.
Open to any ideas / help as I need a lot of it. I do have some pole barns for drying later on but I am
Nervous about humidity and mold etc. more to read and learn before I get there!
