I'm done.

[Ben Brand]

I'm very tired but I'm happy. Done all my planting today. Being busy since 5 this morning, all day yesterday lying pipes and drippers. This morning planting, spraying poison for cut worms and leafminer, then putting a fence up to keep the hounds out. I think I deserve a nice cigar and a long ice cold brandy tonight.

Good for you, at least that part is completed.

 

[Jitterbugdude]

Ben... You are never done until your tobacco has cured and you are smoking it... now go back out there and weed!...

 

[Ben Brand]

Jitterbug can't even get up to pour a glass of water. Getting to old for this. I'll need some help next year!

 

[Bex]

Any strength to perhaps upload a photo of your plot? How many plants?

 

[DGBAMA]

Good job Ben. A lot of satisfaction in that kind of tired. Enjoy your cigar.

Iv`e got lots of little plots. will give it a go. 200 plants, roughly 120 fillers and 80 wrappers.

 

[Ben Brand]

Pen Broadleaf and Comstock Spanish wrappers
Criollo 98 and Habano 2000 wrappers
Pen Red and Dominican Olor
The rest of the Dom Olor and Vuelta Abajo
The rest of the V Abajo and Con Broadleaf
Con Broadleaf and Long Red. Shot was taken late afternoon, hence the shadows.

All my tobacco is drip irrigated, just because I had the drippers available to me.

Beautiful. Very nice strain selection and nice soil. Good luck and lots of sun.

 

[FmGrowit]

Very nice job. Be careful to use the drip irrigation sparingly.

 

[Bex]

All fenced in with security fencing, too... I wonder if I could stick my hand in far enough to do a bit of harvesting when the time comes.....Looks great!

Nice job there Ben, that should keep you well stocked up for next year !!

 

[deluxestogie]

I see a lot of barbs on all that barbed wire. I would worry about the leaf being thrashed against it by the wind.

Yes, I know I`m going to have a few trashed leaves, hopefully only on the one third of the plant, but that's all the space I have. Call it short filler!!!! The rest long filler.
