An Easy Step By Step Guide To Growing Your Tobacco Plants...


Picture

What You Need...

To start with, you will need the following bits:
  • 40 Plastic Cell Tray
  • Cardboard Pots
  • Plastic Plant Labels
  • Compost
  • Seed Compost

Filling Seedling Tray...


You need to fill the tray with compost. We use a standard compost - 'Verve Compost'. You can get this from most B&Q type places. Make sure to pack in the compost firmly.

Spray Seedling Tray...


Once you have filled the seed trays firmly, give the tray a good spray with water, so as to make sure the seeds have a nice moist environment
to live in.

Prep Seedling Tray...

Now you have the tray ready for the seedlings, you need to
make holes in the compost. You can use a mini dabber, which gives the
perfect size holes for the new tobacco seedlings.


Sowing The Tobacco Seeds...

Using the seed compost - We Use John Innis seed compost, again, you can get this from B&Q type shops. As with the seedling tray, make sure to pack the compost in firmly.

Filling Seed Pots...

After filling the seed pots, rub off the excess, making sure to have a flat surface, so that the seeds can be sown uniformly. This will help later when you Prick Out.

Filling Seed Trays...

After giving the pot a quick spray, wet
your fingertip and dab into
your seeds, you should aim
for about 50 seeds.

Prepping Seed Trays...

Once you have the amount you desire, sprinkle in a circle so that you cover the top of the pots surface. Give another spray when you are done.

Seedlings Ready...

After a couple of weeks, you should have about an inch of seedling. Using a cocktail stick, separate each tobacco seedling gently.

Pricking Out...

Being careful, gently pinch each separated seedling and guide them into the prepared hole in the
seedling tray. Gently fill the
hole around the seedling.

All Done...

Press around each seedling firmly, and then give another spray, and you will one step nearer to your bounty!
