Anders A Grow Log 2026

[Anders A]

Out there under the snow, the tobacco fields are resting. Right now it is -20 °C (-4 °F).
Like last year, I will only grow one variety, and a maximum of 50 plants. Up to 50 plants will make curing and drying easier for me.
And I haven't decided yet what kind it will be.

I'm back

I had forgotten my password so haven't been able to log in for a while, but finally managed to get hold of an admin and get a new password.

The growing season is slowly progressing here in Sweden.
I have now fertilized the tobacco land with cow manure, plowed and harrowed.
I'm waiting a little extra long this year to sow my seeds, as in recent years I've always thought I was too early.
I plan to sow my seeds on April 22, transplant them to the plug tray on May 13 and plant them out around June 10.

Nice to be back again

Welcome back!

That’s an impressive plot.

 

[WillQuantrill]

Phew! I thought you were a goner! Welcome back!

 

[Anders A]

That’s an impressive plot.

The picture lies, my tobacco land is only a small part of the field in the picture, 7 x 50 meters (7.6 x 55 yards)

7 x 50 metres is still very impressive haha

Thank you, it´s really good to be back again.

It was frustrating not being able to log in for a while, and it took me a long time to find a way to reach an FTT administrator and get a new password. But now, I'm back, just in time for the growing season to start

 

[Anders A]

50 different varieties, of which 46 were sown on April 19th and 4 on April 21st, all have done well. Now time for thinning. We'll see how many varieties I'll plant out, I had earlier decided on just one variety this year again
