From seed to Swedish snus, harvest and curing the tobacco

[BasseBlues]

This has gotten long overdue, but I finally managed to put together a video and a post at creatinker.com from the harvest and curing of my tobacco. I have not made any snus from the tobacco, but tobacco is like wine, it gets better with age. I have read that Swedish Match stores their tobacco for five years before using it.

Congratulations! It's a very rewarding plant to grow!

Thank you, yes it's rewarding. I took down the last drying leaves this week and weighed them. In total 3500 g (7.7 lb). Not optimal for over 90 plants, but I aim to improve on that this season. Better location and better soil are on my todo-list.
