Days to Maturity

[TigerTom]

I am looking at growing Cuban Criollo 98, Corojo (or Corojo 99), and Piloto Cubano, but I'm not sure when I should sow. I need to be able to harvest either before our summer blast furnace kicks in or later in the season when the season cools off (September-ish).

Can anyone tell me the approximate days to maturity on these varieties so I can decide when to plant?

Thanks.

Expect the process from the starting of germination to transplanting into the field to require 6 to 8 weeks. After transplant, most varieties require at least 60 days before the leaf begins to mature. So 60 to 90 days post transplant to complete harvesting.

Thank you.

Seems I'll be waiting a couple months in those ones.
