I've often thought about growing my own tobacco, especially since I live in Florida now. But I have no idea where to even look for seeds. For some reason I thought you had to be a certified and licensed grower for tobacco? And only because I just assumed. But I see your link and I'm definitely going to bookmark it! Thanks :)
I will be posting on the specifics of growing these plants. They are super easy to grow and the primative rusticas will go to seed and grow like weeds next spring. I start mine indoors, the seeds are really tiny, I've saved thousands in my seed bank. You can grow all you want, you can't sell the cured tobacco, which is as stupid (police state?) as making it illegal to grow and sell pot. Also smoking straight tobacco without a fragrant herb mix is a nasty taste, unless your an expert a curing. The rusticas (Native American ) will get you higher than a kite, their nicotine content is through the roof!
