Nicotiana tabacum
Hasankeyf is a Rustica strain developed in Russia. It has the classic plant form of most Rustica tobaccos growing to a height of about 30 inches in height with side branches. It produces 10 to 12 leaves averaging 8 inches in width and 12 inches in length on the main stalk, with additional smaller leaves on the side stalks. Hasankeyf reaches bloom fairly early at approximately 35 to 40 days with the leaves starting to ripen about two weeks later. It is a good choice for shorter growing seasons, or for an earlier harvest. Each packet contains about 100 seeds.
Tobacco plants are very interesting, ornamental, and have many uses apart from consumption. Tobacco seeds are not classified as tobacco products. We promote the cultivation of tobacco plants, but we do not promote the use of tobacco products.
Tobacco seeds are tiny and look like dust, but each one has the potential to quickly grow into a huge tobacco plant. They need light to germinate. Sprinkle the seeds onto the surface of a moist and sterile seed starting mix. Do not cover the seeds. They also must never be allowed to dry out, so they are frequently (but gently) watered using a mist from a spray bottle. While waiting for germination, it can help to cover them with some kind of plastic sheeting to help hold moisture.
Once tiny seedlings emerge, you can pick them out one by one and move them into individual cells. Very lightly fertilize and never allow the potting soil to dry out. Within 6 weeks it'll be ready to plant in the garden. Wait until all risk of frost is over before planting outdoors.
