Trading Rustica seeds anyone, spring 2024?

[Huffen'Snuff]

I have a few Aztec Rustica, or Limonka Rustica, and (TA30 Tennessee Burley)I am willing to trade 20 seeds or so, since I only got 100 seeds or so per purchase. I just got them late winter/early spring 2024 and they pop incredibly fast.

I am mainly interested in high nicotine varieties that require minimal curing, processing, since I'm new to tobacco growing. I am only interested in producing dry nasal snuff. I am a pipe smoker that wishes to quit. I had a major love for smoking the Latakia-English blends at a rate that was to high to reasonably expect a healthful outcome.


So look me up tiss the season to start those beans since I am in the North East United States!

High nic strains that requires minimal curing… not an easy task. Rusticas have a high nic content, but the curing process cannot be defined “minimal” at all. For rusticas, try GC 1 or Drosgi black/blue, for N. tabacum Jaffna (a bright leaf strain) may suit your needs. All are available at www.northwoodseeds.com (and many more).

Cool I recently got the GC1, Isleta Pueblo, Punche, off skychaser, and I got all the rest off retailers of his. Including Bursa KY17, Perique,TA30- Tennessee Burley, and I already mentioned Limonka and Aztec from Victory and Seedman

I have some seeds from victory seed co if you guys care to swap some, yellow twist bud, cherry red, shirazi, xanthi, and bafra. I know they aren’t very high nicotine but if you wanna switch up the variety that’s what I got rn. Good seeds all of them popped for me under a week.

I definitely want Yellow Twist, and I will look up the rest, odds are I would like to have a few of each. Say 10 or 20, and I can handle that many from mine to trade.

 

[Huffen'Snuff]

Will seeds a thousand y.o. still germinate?

 

[Huffen'Snuff]

Just kidding, I see thousand year, is a Rustica, I would definitely be interested in that.

Which ones would u be willing to swap? I could def manage 10 maybe 20 seeds each. And I’ll let my best ones flower this year so I will have a lot more seeds in the future.

I would definitely like "Shirazi" and "1000 Year Rustica", plus any outlier's that have an irresistible good smell that would compliment a blend. I will get some postage pm me if anyone would wanna trade.

I look forward to hearing ur opinion on the 1000 year olds would be cool to see how they hold up to other rusticas today

"1000 year old" is N. rustica today. The name is not a reflection of the seeds' age. Tobacco seed can last about 40 to 50 years in absolutely dry conditions. Sorry.
