Alright i am a little late to post but not late growing. i started my seeds indoors under a led grow light and they did wonderful. starting to get them in the ground now as they are getting root bound quickly.

this year i did.
6 - Prilep
1 - golden dollar
1- Yellow Twist bud
4 - southern beauty
2 - Pennsylvania reds
2 - Criollo 98
11 - little Dutch

i had 2 lancaster seed, one died and i cant for the life of me figure out what happened to the other. also had 12 little dutch but one died off. Its okay with me as im scrambling to find places to put them. Pictures coming soon

Not the greatest pics. Babies in cells. Transfered to cups. And then 2 pics of them in garden in my makeshift raised beds. Better pics coming soon as I get the rest in and they grow a bit.

Update from yesterday. Some aren't doing too well

 

[Krausen89]

pic 1 - Criollo 98 - not doing well, one has fell over and uprooted a bit and the other is skimpy.
pic2 - southern beauty - seems to be doing alright
pic3 - Dominican Olor - 3 are doing good but 3 not so much
pic4/pic5 - Yellow twist bud and Gold dollar - YTB is a little larger at this point but still not looking too well.
pic 6 - Little Dutch - seem to be doing the best.
pic 7/pic8 - Prilep - leaves are corrugated but still small, i had a branch fall on one and take a few inches off.
pic 9 - Pa Red- seems to be doing good so far.

I forget which plant this one is from. I'm thinking it was the gold dollar. Maybe from air quality?

If you read current grow log posts, you will notice that we have recently discussed Tobacco Vein Mottling Virus in multiple grow logs. That's what the photo of the blackened central vein looks like to me. No remedy. Not harmful to you, other than just reducing the leaf quality.

Thanks. I haven't had much time to get.on here. I'll have to go through and read up on that. Any idea why the young plants have corrugated leaves? Seems to be more so the Prilep than anything else.

 

[deluxestogie]

Any idea why

I do not.

 

[Krausen89]

Little dutch in pots are doing great!

 

[Krausen89]

Pennsylvania Red is doing fantastic. I am going to attempt to cross pollinate this and little dutch as long as the flowering happens around the same time. I already topped most of the little dutch and I have 1 that is specifically for pure seeds. The late blooming little dutch might come in right around the PA Red.

 

[Krausen89]

Update: cross pollination never was attempted. Most of my eligible plants didn't flower at the same time. That mixed with less time than I'd like in the garden, it never happened.

 

[Krausen89]

One plant of Southern Beauty and a Few not so healthy plants of Prilep. Both sun cured. Might make a nice blend with some latakia. My plan is just shred each one and blend all the leaf positions together.

Little dutch top, middle, lower. These were bundled together and steamed in damp towel in the oven on warm setting. 45mins then aired out, another 45mins and then aired out and so on until it darkened a little and smell became noticably better. To prevent mold in the midribs I will unbundle and stack to dry store and age.

PA Red. One plant. Steamed/stoved same as little dutch above.
