I am a non-smoker, non-snuff, non-chewing person who grows tobacco. I live in Southern Utah. This will be my second year growing.

Welcome to FTT. Since you don't consume, you may be interested in some of the ornamental tobacco plants. Our member Skychaser has a seed site with some interesting varieties. Click tobacco seed, then look for the Ornamentals. They have some beautiful flowers. http://www.northwoodseeds.com/

Welcome to the forum. As Adam Ant would say "Don't smoke , don't drink, what do you do?". In other words, what do you do with your tobacco? What kind do you grow?

I have a friend that smokes it so we grow it together. I have grown VA116 and a burly. The VA116 grew to be about 6 feet or taller and some pretty big leaves. The burly didnt do so well.
